destroy duty missions give this: fast XP, especially if you can get to the later stages of one, when you begin a waypoint with 5 or 6 enemies and work up form there. Also you can make about a 120k credit chip for completing one of these and this doesn't include the 100k or so you get from each cleared waypoint. Also, LOTS LOTS LOTS of loot. Some for REing and some for selling to your favorite shipwright and or chassis dealer.


One completed Tier 4 destroy mission can usually net me about 750k XP, and around 200-300k credits depending on how many loot items I get and sell

A) killing them too slow


B) impatient

Thing is, after a while on my destroy missions I get a nasty TIE with a turret that flies around and owns me. Mind you, last time I got to there I was in a crummy ixiyen without droid commands, so i'll probably do fine in my JSF. Doing the nym clone quest for that nifty engine to RE with. But what's the best tactic to take down that TIE? I forget the name of it, but it wasn't a gunboat. Just had a turret on it.

I'll presume you mean the TIE Aggressor with the rear turret. If so, one of the best methods is to "joust" the TIE. At this point, you will probably be doing more damage to it than it will to you in head-on encounters. After passing, corkscrew to avoid the turret shots. Rinse and repeat.

Some folks also like to use the "[" or "]" key to cycle to that turret; once they blow up that turret, standard tactics will usually suffice.

Kessel.

I'm surprised those gunboats don't have "+Exp" written on the side.

But is it possible for me to go to kessel at 4333 with my JSF? I'm not the best pilot, but i'm learning the techniques such as corckscrewing and where to use them. I can take down a lone gunboat, but will there be other agro ships/gunboats nearby? If so, don't know if I can manage that. Never been to kessel/deepspace before.

I'm a chimaerian m8. If you are smugglers alliance, then we should be ok, as I'm rebel. But give me a shout. I'm trying to sort a move from Naboo to Talus out, but I'll show you what to do regards taking out a Tie Aggressor. I can take you into Kessel too if you like. You get around 7-10k per kill there. It's easy enough when you know how



Name's, in the sig.

Also, make sure you have a decent loadout. With the JSF, you should be able to outfit if with Mark III and Mark IV gear that is more than enough to get you the xp you need. And run droid progams, fer cryin' out loud! I don't know how many of us made the mistake of never learning about those

I've got some nice stuff on my JSF, but i'll have a shop around for the best I can get before I go. And yes, I found out about droid commands a few days ago, and i've become 10x better. I'll be sad to se the broken WO3 go.

You should be able to handle Kessel. You'll have to go there in a few missions to do your master anyway. Everything there is Tier 5 which you've already been fighting if you're killing poachers.
