I launced into space in rori and hyperspaced into that region, he wasnt that far out for me but the first time he hyperspaced out on me to. The next time when I got there I cycled through the targets til I got the smuggler targeted and he didnt hyperspace.

ok soI have caught up to the guy and the first time I killed him out right. Guess that was not whatI was supposed to do cause I falied the mission. The next time I disabled his reactor but his guns got me. Then I disabled the reactor and the guns and he powered up again and hypered off. What amI supposed to do first off. Dock and steal the carbine? If so how doI keep him disabled long enopugh to do it?

After you disable him just follow him, he will lead you to an ambush. If you shoot him after you disable him the guns will shoot you back so just stay back out of range. After you kill the ambush guys you will find evidence that points to yavin4 Labor Outpost.


At least your guns worked. For some reason my Tie Advance doesn't do dmg to anything anymore so I had to get a guildmate to disable the craft. This actually worked well because the smuggler spawns in the same spot every time. If you don't get him the first time just have your friend stay out at the spawn while you get the mission again and as soon as you get the mission your friend can disable the craft. You don't have to do anything as long as you are grouped.

If you hyper to I think it's Dantooines Wrath, or somethings wrath, you will be a lot closer to the smuggler.



However there seems to be a neat little bug that if you get destroyed by the ambush you can't continue the quest or reset it. The sullustan won't reset it, Boba tells you to go to the LO on yavin but the NPC there doesnt talk to you. Sent a ticket about it but haven't heard anything yet.



Just really annoyed that the quests out there are giving me weapons and armor that I can't use, and the one quest reward I can use is all borked up.

Someone messaged on another forum and said this quest does not result in the dc15 rifle. Can someone confirm this?


They said it is another quest.

DC-15 rifle quest is given by a Notable Bounty Hunter who hangs with a disgusting worm....

Same thing happened to me the first time. Second time around, however, I decided not to give him the opportunity to hyperspace out. Soon as he spawned I hit Emergency Thrust and turned on my boosters to scream towards him at a speed of about 1300. After reaching him target his Engines first in order to prevent him from hyperdriving out. Once the engines are down you may want to hit the guns just to keep him from offing you. Shortly after his shields and guns will come back online and you must follow him to a point where you'll be ambushed by two fighters and he'll hyperspace out. Cream these two guys and then continue with the mission prompts.

Don't you get a choice between DC15 rifle and carbine?
