PVP and GCW are both decay free deaths. If you have ever been scanned in a town and been shot down by stormtroopers for being a rebel, you would see this. You will get cloned with no decay. Same goes for Corvette.


There is one catch to this though. If you go up to the Corvette with things that aren't insured, they will suffer decay. Over and over and over again when you die, so make sure you go up fully insured and if you loot anything that can decay (like rebel armor) stash it in a droid or something or it will not decay too.

You sure? PvP isn't supposed to have decay, but all forms of PvE(incuding the corvette) should have decay on your items upon cloning. Which is real cute since you can clone up there, but not insure







ok, of course death in the GCW does not decay, same as PvP .


the corvette used to be that, once u die the first time, u lose insurence and then your items, armor, clothing etc, started going byby. players started going naked to the corvette.


i am not exactly sure when the change happened, i did not notice any official notice, but the corvette no longet uninsures you, so you get the black rot, but no more decay. thats all i ment...

you can not pull droid while on the corvette so using a droid to stash is very hard...Can droids come up if they are part of the team assualting the corvette?

I have heard that you can pull pets up there. I was planning on using my pets as bait as I dashed past the guys...

You can call pets up there for all the good they'll do(not much). I still don't know about the no decay issue unless it was a part of Publish 10.

You can call pets. The decay is also dependent on who kills you. When a guy got me, I didn't lose insurance. When a SBD nailed me, insurance was lost and suffered decay. After insurance is gone, I had everything decay. One thing that could be tried is using comp armor and buffs until you get killed once. Then store the armor away in a droid and go with food and spices from there. Just be careful not to draw anyone back to the start room, or you could have a very bad night.

factiond corvette= decay free as long as you are deathblowed by a npc if as above a sbd gets you you will decay from then on

neutral corvette = decay decay decay no mater what kills you


hope that helps clear up the confusion

I would not reconmend trying to solo the vette unless you want to try to go naked and burstruning to your objectives... even then, it'd be dicey at best.

FYI, burst run is disabled up there so no dice. It is possible to solo with a few deaths depending on your prof.

what he said...


actully run the jabba's destroy mission... have +5000 corsec faction... i only get agro'd on the first floor... don't kill anything, just run to the mission points... elevators are your friends... after the first time in there where my entire group died in like 1 min cept me... i was lost but made it most of the way through... since then been doing the loot drop thing... 10 mins hit all the loot spots, got get another ticket... got 3 powerplants within an hour...


note of caution... of you are going to shoot special attacks... DO NOT fire an AoE.. stick with HS3... run away from SBD's...


then again smuggler makes it easier cause you can bypass some steps with your slicing skill (found that out on accident), and FD is priceless... things look bad clear the combat que and FD, take a nap for a lil while while you regenerate stand up start running again...




I can just see a "Wait for the Combat Revamp" and "Wait for the Smuggler Revamp" quote all rolled into one.
