Where are the explorer mission terminals on Endor????
I rescently desided to move to endor and do my solo hunts there, and I've checked both towns and I could not find any explorer mission terminals.

The only thing your missing is that the explorer terminals are only on starter planets that I remember. It would be an interesting idea. The payoffs would be high to. But finding on Yavin "45 Kliknik Queens pay 45k" would be a painful missions. Especially since JTL's missions count towards your two.

There are explorer mission terminals on Lok just outside the hotel.
Wouldn't be so bad if there were player town to place them.
Endor is a rangers dream planet... but we are missing the terminal to take advantage of them. On lok I would take 2x45 Reclusive spine snake missions and head out. would be able to get them about 30-50 in an hour and half session (allong with other kills) and log out in the wild. Lets you visit all those out of the way POI without needing a speeder.

It's been a really long time since I touched an explorer terminal....but the way I remember it, if you looked hard enough you could get missions off those for critters on an 'unknown planet' which translated to adventure planet creatures or creatures not onyour currentplanet

I got this "unknown planet" mission stat most often while on Naboo and while picking up Nightspider missions. Gone are the days of nightspidering eh? Anyway... I'd pick them up for some type of nightspiders then fly to Rori where no one else was hunting.
The amount of time needed to accomplish this never met the payout though so I have stopped doing them almost completely.

I'm hoping to find them because I find them fun... Runnning betwwen WP and terminal over and over again is not my idea of intresting.
I'd rather explore the planet. And explorer mission let me do that.

You do realize that the explorer terms pay out less than regular missions for the same creatures, cause nothing to spawn, and are generally on the south side of useless.
I quit using these pieces of poodoo when I figured I could get 15 tortur missions at 6k per ( more or less 45 tortur bulls) or one" kill 45 tortur bulls" mission for 9k. Be real, even my math skills are not that bad. 90 v 9... emmm errrr.... coughwasteofspacecough....
You are being ripped off severely.
You should find the shop steward and file a complaint.

Why do people find it hard to believe that not all players are out to make money.
When I go hunting, I like to pick 1 type of creture and hunt those. no need to double check the type of weapon I'm using vs it resists. Lets me work on my combat skills my way.
Secondly I'm not tied to a town, I can run from town to town and hunt as I go. The explorer missions let me do that, and make a bit of money. I personally do not hunt for a specific resource, I hunt what I fun & intresting, and I still hunt this way with or without an explorer mission. The explorer mission allows me to pick up some cash as I go thats it.
Currently on endor I do not have any problems with spawn rates, theyre is always at least 2 lairs on my radar (256m) usually more.
Explorer mission my not meet your play style, but they do meet mine.

JB,
Maybe hes doing it for the challange of the hunt and tracking over the money making. You know there are a few peolpe left who dont obsess over credits. And it would allow you to act like a Ranger and use /areatrack often and such.

I actually have to agree with you Fodder650 but the terminals could at least generate scattered spawns of the missions they hand out. For instance if you hit an explorer term on Rori then the server should begin to spawn whatever creatures the mission was for throughout the planet.

Yes I would like explorer mission to increase spawns, because if you grab the wrong type its a pain.
WHYare female slice hounds not Slice hounds?????
But I find destroy missions a pain, I avoid them unless I need cash. Yoyoing from a town is not enjoyable for me.

Then why arn't there any MALE slice hound. Kind of defeats the purpose if there are only females and eunicks.
