Privateer Tier III Missions (I need tips)

[Guest]

Archived from groups: alt.games.starwarsgalaxies (More info?)

All right so I've been almost tearing my hair out trying to do the
third mission you get from the trainer in Jabba's Palace. I've tried
about 6 times now. It's the mission where you have to deliver a cargo
from Jabba to different Imperial shuttles.

Here's what always gets me:

1) Just as you reach the first shuttle, a bunch of Deathwatch fighters
come out and blast you. Wave after wave after wave after wave etc.

2) After the first shuttle is done a big load of fighters pop out and
start trying to blast you. I usually skip them using IFF scramble.

3) The third shuttle is a really long escort mission with, again,
endless waves of Tier 4 ships.

So, does anyone have any tips for these missions? Anyone tried them
and got past them? Usually I try to disable the fighters so that the
next wave won't come so soon, but it doesn't always work. I've only
made it to part three of the mission once.

I got lucky and the mission was sort of bugged, I think, when I did it. I got
through the 1st two parts extremely fast with no ships showing up. Best advice,
get help, and keep getting help. I'm on tier 4 now and its more difficult than
tier 3.

Remap a button on your joystick for selecting Reactors.

Remap a button on your joystick for targeting what's in front of you.

Drop ordanance and get bigger guns. You will run out of ordinance.

Trade for an Imperial Weapons Overload 2 command. (Use sparingly.)

Find the fastest regenning capacitor and shields that you can.

Go free-flying for a while to get a better feel for the ship, especially
just after you just modified the thing.

I am on the same mission and find it almost impossible. Been spamming
for wingmen to help for a week and no one wants to help lol. What sux is I
can't get trained (apparently) until I finish this mission. Anyone on
Radiant available?
