Well turns out the final mission is an imp based one i.e. Imperial opposition, and seeing as all my guild are Imperial im in a bit of a fix as they can't help me

Can this mission be soloed? if not,

Are there any Rebel or Freelance pilots on the Chimaera server willing to lend me their time so i can finally get Master Pilot?

Thanks

i guess everything can be done solo. all the way to the vette was easily done solo, but the guide for soloing the vette didnt sound like something i would want to try. i admit that attacking from the front has the benefit of not taking fire from the gunships, but its not like the vette would need them. i think it also included space bombs.

but look at your big advantage: unlike rebels you can get into the right position without being bothered ,-)

As long as you're a neutral pilot, you should be able to solo the Corvette. You may die a few times, but you won't lose the mission.Few things to remember:



  • You must hit the actual components to damage them. If you need to damage the engine, blasting the fuselage won't help.

  • Selecting a specific component should bring up a sub target selection, showing you where the component is located.

  • Certain components only show up after others are destroyed. You must first take out the weapons, then you can get to the shields(two of them), then the engine, then the reactor, and finally, the Bridge.

  • /iffscramble is your friend. If things get too hot, hit that, and ships forget about neutral pilots.

  • Shield commands help tremendously.

  • Don't bother using Concussion missiles. They are a waste of time on the Corvette.

  • While Space bombs do dealmassive damage, one magazine of four won't do you as much good as one magazine of twelve Mark III Proton Torpedos

  • Once youtake the Engines of the Corvette out of commision, the gunboats just drift away.

  • Being neutral, the fighters around the Corvette won't automaticly attack you

  • I dunno if they've changed this, but last time I checked, a Neutral attacking the Corvette didn't aggo the gunboats, untill the Neutral accidentily shot one of them.

Hope that helps.
