ok, i just did the second mission for the Rhodian Hunters camp.


I had to fly to the Corellia system, and drop off some pelts to a cargo ship.


so after messing with the annoying swarms of Poacher ships, i finally dock with the transport and it says mission completed. so i go back to Kashyyk, and then the guy wants to give me the SAME mission again????


and i have NO journal entry to follow........


what did i miss?

After you deliver the pelts, there is a 2nd part, and escort mission that you need to do in the Kashyyyk system. Escort a freighter, keep it safe from waves of Tier 3 (and Tier 4?) pirates and such. I died on this part, so not sure if there is anything AFTER that. The annoying part is that it does say you complete the mission on the pelt delivery one, but then if you fail on the next one, you have to go BACK and do the pelt delivery one again... grrrrrrrrrrrr.

It'll say "mission complete" for each step of the mission.. I think there are 3 total.

I always keep the "quest" tab open in space.. I usually can't pay attention to the system messages on screen in space and need to look back and see what the details of the next stage are. It also helps me to figure out when the entire mission is complete, or just that part of the mission.


I actually failed the last part the first time I tried it.. I guess I didn't kill them fast enough. The good thing is that when I went back into space to try it, I only had to complete the very last part. So, I didn't have to redo the rendezvous/dock/escort part over again.

huh....


well got a buddy to help and we failed the escort part. he said we got about 1.5k away from the transport chasing those dang A-wings. so i think that's why I failed it. I'll go back up in space and see if it starts over tommorrow.

Nope. If you fail the 2nd part, it seems like you have to go do the "deliver the pelts" again. Good news is, if you MAKE it by the 2nd mission, you get a 3rd one to destroy a shipment of Chiss poacher weapons, and if you fail THAT one, it's the only one you have to do over. I failed it the first time (just now) since I apparently missed one and then got blown up by a bunch of pirates...


At least that steenky Rodian back at the camp only wants me to redo THAT mission, which shouldn't be too difficult to pull off. It's like 3 or 4 escort fighters (I think Tiers 2-4?) plus a freighter you have to blow up. Watch out on your targetting tho, there are TONS of other pirates and stuff in that area, and you might accidentally pull some extra aggro on you from non-mission bad guys... hehe... live and learn.

So, um... can you put in a good work for us relatively n00b pilots with that guy then? I've delivered his ##$(^*(# pelts half a dozen times, but he still expects me to take out those Tier 3 and Tier 4 aces later on... the nerve!

sorry dude, but that transport's got to make it through safely. the pilot of that transport isn't too bright, he doesn't realize that he could just hyperspace from where he's at, instead he feels the need to travel a while before he can hyperspace.


if you were on Lowca, i'd load both of my missle launchers on my TIE bomber and give you a hand, but i can't hyperspace all the way to the Ahazi Galaxy. My engines might be good, but they aren't THAT good.


what level pilot are you? if you're 3-3-3-3 or better you can easily solo, if you're under that, i'd suggest trying to find 1 or 2 other pilots of similar or more experience, and group up with them for the mission.



by the way, isn't the Corellian space part harder than the Kashyyyk part? i'm fairly sure that the Chiss Poachers that i fought in Corellian space were Tier 5.

heheh, thanks. I've gotten past the poachers (they seemed to be toned down today - Tier 2 and 3 I think), I was able to disable enough then hyper to a different part of the sector, meet the freighter and dock. I also finally made it through the freighter escort, what a pain in the azz that was! Besides all the dang waves coming after YOU, there's all the OTHER random pirates and all buzzing around Kashyyyk space - got on the wrong end of some nasty pirates a couple tries and ended up dying when it was like me against 20. Hehe. I'm a 2-2-2-2 pilot right now, but finally got some new equipment in my TIE/in and it's making ALL the difference to not die in 1 shot.


I only have to finish the Chiss poacher "destroy the freighter and his escorts" one and I think I'll finally have access to the Hunting Grounds. This is actually decent practice for my Tier 3 missions too, which I'll eventually get around to doing. I figure if I can survive and take out some of the Tier 3 and Tier 4 stuff they're throwing at me on THESE missions and do it solo, I'm getting familiar enough with my new stick to be able to do the Tier 3 missions.

that destroy the freighter and its escort part is indeed the final leg of the space mission. after that you won't need to go into space again for a bit. i've come across a few Trandoshes that sent me to space, and a wook, but i don't think anymore Rodians send you up to space, at least not for a while.
