The 4th mission from Jabba Privateer 3332 is bugged. You are suppose to take out the Rancor Clan who are fighting Hutts in Dath. The Hutts agro and it overwhelms even a large group trying to do this mission. We have tried this over a dozen times and it happens every time. There is also a Tier 5 YT-1300 that crushes the group as well.
Something is wrong with this mission when 5 or 6 Masters and 4444 helping a couple of 3332 is unable to do the mission due to the Hutt ships agro'ing.

easiest way to do this is actually solo, fly right into the center of the hutt ships that are supposed to be helping you, fire 1 shot at the rancor clan, they will fire back and will hit the hutt ships your hiding behind, then the hutt ships and rancor clan will get into it leaving you free to take out hte rancor clan 1 at a time

I finished yesterday w/ another Privateer that just started taking missions from Jabba's Palace. He didn't get agro'd cause he's fighting along side Hutts now since he's taking missions from Jabba. But Tier 2 Privateers will get agro'd by the Hutts cause they're currently taking missions from the Valarians (enemies of the Hutts). Also Rebels will get agro'd as well. So your best bet is to get someone who is in the same Tier as you or just get a big group to wipe everything out.
Also Ifound that if youfly in the middle of the Rancor Clan guys (before they agro you) and set off you Energy Pulse, you'll be able to take out some ships and even the odds. I was able to take out 4 ships at once doing EP.
Good Luck!

Thanks for the tips. I'll try them. We did have a couple Rebs in the group so maybe that was the issue.

It helps to use IFF Scramble immediately after getting to two sides to engage, otherwise the Rancor will continue to focus on you for firing on them first.

I have now tried this quest exactly 19 times. I tried it 6 times solo using the techniques listed in this thread, and the other times with a mixed group of pretty high skilled pilots.
We simply cannot complete this thing. That tier 5 in that group tears everyone apart, even some heavy hitting 4444 rebel pilots with good armor/shields. This is just rediculous!

I did this with one other wing mate...and he was like a 1-2-1-1 Freelancer. The key is to get the Hutt's to agro. Only problem is you have to make sure not to target them,because they will conn red to your radar. But the Hutt's help keep the Rancor Clan busy so you don't get tore up. My wingman helped take pressure off of me too so I could slip in behind the baddies and boom them.
That energy pulse idea sounds awesome. Wish I woulda thought of that.
One key thing...the hutts can't die! If they all get wiped out you lose. That was my issue the first time I took in several wingmen. They kept blowing the Hutts out of the sky. ONLY target the Rancor Clan and tell your group the same thing. Otherwise your screwed.

Bring a long a decent Imperial, have him toss strike1 or strike2 on the YT-1300 and it's out of hte equation.

A couple guildmates helped out a player last night and we crushed this mission. There was only 5-6 of us doing it as well, no problems what so ever (although the hutt did have a tendency to attack me but I have -5000 Hutt faction but mostly they were to busy attacking the Rancor Clan mofo's). Try targetting the yt-1300's weapons first, makes it easier when it can't shoot back.

How or what did you do to complete the first mission in the Palace by Beissa? Its the one where you have to disable a frieghter and kill off the Valarian Escorts...
Can disable the Frieghter, but cannot damage any of the escorts at all and they dont damage me. Just the 'beep' when you hit it...

You have the remnants of someone else who came and attacked them possibly, or someone outside of your group hit those targets when they spawned for you. I wish they would set timers on mobs in JTL to release the lock protecting mobs from other players. It's a great "kill steal insulation" design to lock mobs out for others, but it is bugging a lot of quest targets too.

This mission I flew alone to test it as I do with all my mission/quests. I experienced no problems in completing the mission. I was rather surprized I was able to complete the mission by myself.
