Is there some way to find out if the spawn is bugged by some smacktard who didn't bother taking out the stupid gunboats? I've been sitting by the spawn point in Kessel for some time, and not a damn thing has spawned. My ace friend scouted the usual poinst and found no gunboats or anything.

Any help on this would be greatly appreciated

Exit points for both vettes are posted in the FAQ. When I'm doing a vette I usually enter Kessel and head straight for that WP. If you see two gunboats spinning in circles, shoot 'em. Then fly from the despawn point to the spawn point, can't miss it then.

More often than not these days I find the gunboats up.

Spawn time seems to vary from 1.5-2.5 hours between vettes, usually depending on when you time it from the last one. So if you camped it for half an hour or so...keep waiting.

I know what you mean.

If a poisonous snake is dropped on top of you from a gyrocopter, don’t freak out and shoot your own driver with your arrow gun, making the vehicle lose control and blow up. Its probably just as scared as you are.

Thanks for all your help, it DID spawn after a long time of wating, lol.

I took down the entry point, didn't think to take down the exit point, that's a good tip I'll be sure to use as I get more of my guild up to ace. Also, to me, gunboats are as good a target as any others, so be sure that if I'm in Kessel and see any, I'm destroying them (now that I"ve got the method down, I find it quite fun, lol).

Also, I just made Ace, Black Epsilon Squadron, thanks to Karlth and Levar on Radiant, who helped me greatly.

You took downthe RebelCorvette at the same time as I was helping somebody take down the Imp Corvette! Well, assuming you posted right afterward, anyway ... it was funny, he sent me a /tell asking if I was Tier 4, I told him Tier 2, he mentioned the Vette was in Kesseland he needed help, so I helped anyway, and a good thing, too!
