I'm definately not the best pilot, but I've managed to make it to 2/2/2/2 (Very close to 3/x/x/x). Anyway I'm in the storm squadrin and I've recieved an escort mission to take some engineers through the endor system. The thing is everytime I complete the missions I get another one. I got to the part where I have to take the transport through the system and get attacked by a few groups of 5 A-wings. How close am I to actually completeing this mission?

When I got to that part of the mission, I killed a few of the ships, then it started wandering into the massive group of wondering A-wings. At that part just let the ship go. It has enough shields and hp to survive for quite awhile. About a minute later it will hyper out--all done.


After that I think there still might be a couple more left to do, but I'm not too certain. Personally I think that all escort missons just plain suck.

ya there are several more steps to that mission. it's one of the biggest you're gonna face in storm squadron. you most likely will need help to get through it.

It's been a while, but I think the mission goes like this:

Escort scientists
Disable transport and escort it
Disable, inspect, and dock with an a-wing
Dock with and escort another transport
Meet a Lambda and dock with it

Once you've finished docking with the Lambda, the mission should be over. But, like I said, it's been a while since I've done it, I may have missed a step.

goin into tier 3 is the hardest part of pilot and you will get about 3 missions after the first escort (i think)

I believe this mission is bugged anyways. Me and my friend were trying it today and we got passed the awing advance recon and we were escorting animperial freighter, then we ran to the very edge of the map and the thing would not jump. We sat there for 30 minutes doing nothing but killing the spawns that came. So, you might want to wait a bit before trying this again. A bug report was filed though.

Thanks for the help guys. I guess I'll have to get help. I could probably solo it if not for the A-wings. It takes me like 2-3 minutes to take out one, they're too fast. B-wings are a little easier but not by much. Does it get any easier aftre this?

not really

just shorter. you joined the toughest squad out there, and you'll see why soon enough.

once you can get bomber strike i suggest you do. without it, i never would have completed half of those missions.

If I was a better pilot I could finish easy lol. My ship is good enough, and i don' know how i managed that, but whatevere I'm fighting rarely brakes my sheild. It's just mostly just when i get jumped by pirtates (since they have missles)or have to take out a group of A-wings since they're fast enough to daodge my fire and slowly wear me down.


So since you said I joined the toughest squadron I assume there are others? I meanhow do you get in them. I just went and talked to the guy i was told to talk to and he said I'd be in Storm.

I helped a friend with this mission the other day. I was 4444 RSF, and we had no difficulties other than him not know how to use his droid routines. When you get to a segment of a mission that requires you to dock with another ship, if you are solo, do NOT stop and fight the first wave to spawn, get to the waypoint and then dock ASAP. Use CapShunt to survive the assault, but as soon as you dock, the waves stop spawning. If you have a wingman, which I suggest, have him engage the first wave while you rush in to dock, then help him mop up. If he's able, he should get a couple of solid hits on each ship in the wave to keep their attention focused on him as much as possible. Minimum droid programs to be using at this point are Weapon Capacitor Overcharge 3 and Capacitor to Shield Shunt 3. I like to throw in Engine Overload 2 also. Get a factory crate of Unprogrammed Droid Control Modules, you will not have trouble finding a freelance or another Imperial pilot with better programs to burn you a chip if you provide the blanks.
