The agent is disguised as a "Nym's Fuel Technician" (located at 451, 4753). When you talk with the agent, tell him you are there to clean the antimatter condenser. He will then go through a dialogue and tell you to go speak with another fuel technician (located at 481, 4961). You need to tell the second fuel technician that "The fuel balance on the 'Kimogila's Claw' is messed up." She will tell you the ship has already left and this will begin your mission. You will launch into space, intercept and destroy the Kimogila's Claw (a Tier 2 YT-1300) and its escorts (3 Tier 2 X-Wings). If you are an inexperienced pilot you may want to bring help. If you opt to go it alone, simply move in and disable the YT-1300 by targeting its engine or reactor using the [ or ] keys. You can then pull the fighter escort out of range to destroy them. If the YT-1300 has not already self destructed by the time you are done destroying the fighters, you need go back and finish it off. Once this mission is completed, return to Commander Oberhaur to claim your reward. If you have enough experience you will also be trained in your next skill.

Administrators eqsanctum 1,636 Author Administrators Share Posted January 20, 2017 Tier 3: NOTES: -Your next Tier of skills is entirely mission based. This means you will not use any experience when you train. After you successfully complete a mission set you will be trained in a Tier 3 skill. There are four Tier 3 mission sets. -If you have not already done so, you need to familiarize yourself with flight computers and droid commands as these will make your life a lot less stressful from this point forward. At your current level you will be allowed to use a Level 3 Flight Computer. For more information about droid programs please refer to the Pilot FAQ. Mission 1: Number of Legs in Mission: 5 First Leg Name of Mission: Escort the Engineer's Transport Type of Mission: Escort Description: Escort the Engineer's Transport through the Endor system. You will be attacked by waves of three Tier 3 fighters (Y Wings and X Wings) every two minutes. Second Leg Name of Mission: Capture the Engineer's Transport Under Rebel Control Type of Mission: Capture & Escort Description: Proceed to the waypoint and disable the transport that has been taken over by rebels. Once the transport is disabled, destroy the four escorts (three Tier 3 A-Wings and one Tier 3 B-Wing). After the escorts are destroyed, escort the freighter through the Endor system to its hyper point. During the escort you will attacked by waves of Tier 3 A Wings with three ships per wave. The waves will spawn about ever 2 minutes. Third Leg Name of Mission: Inspect the Rebel Advanced Recon Fighter Type of Mission: Disable & Dock Description: Proceed to the waypoint and disable the Tier 3 A-Wing called Rebel Advanced Recon Fighter. Once the ship is disabled, dock with it and retrieve the Rebel Order (encrypted). Fourth Leg Name of Mission: Rescue an Imperial Freighter Type of Mission: Repair and Escort Description: Proceed to the waypoint and dock with the transport. You might be attacked by a random spawn of Tier 4 rebel fighters while you are repairing the freighter and waiting for it to get underway. Disable the fighters as fast as you can before the first wave of your mission fighters spawns. As you escort the freighter you will be attacked by waves of Tier 3 fighters. The waves will spawn every 2 minutes and there will be three fighters per wave (X-Wings, B-Wings and A-Wings). NOTE: This freighter seems to exit right on the edge of a Tier 4 pirate spawn so keep an eye out for them. As soon as the freighter hypers out, hit your booster and get out of there as quickly as you can as the last leg of your mission begins as soon as the freighter hypers out. Fifth Leg Name of Mission: Deliver Encrypted Rebel Data to Command Shuttle Type of Mission: Delivery Description: As soon as the shuttle hypers out you will be given a waypoint to rendezvous with a Lambda Shuttle and deliver the encrypted rebel data you retrieved from the A-Wing in the 3rd leg of the mission. Go full throttle to the waypoint and do not stop until you get there. As you head for the shuttle you will be ambushed by multiple waves of Tier 3 A-Wings with four ships per wave. Ignore them and keep going to the waypoint as fast as possible. If you slow down and try to engage them you could become overwhelmed in a matter of minutes. Once you reach the waypoint, wait for the shuttle and dock with it as soon as it hypers into the system. As soon as docking is finished your mission will be complete. You can now return to Captain Denner on Yavin to claim your reward, train in your first Tier 3 skill and pick up your next mission. Reward: 25,000 Credits, 100 Imperial faction points and a Rendili "K Class" Weapons Capacitor (Cert Level 6) Mission 2: Number of Legs in Mission: 6 First Leg Name of Mission: Inspect Another Rebel Advanced Recon Fighter Type of Mission: Disable & Dock Description: You will proceed to the waypoint where you find a Tier 3 Rebel Advanced Recon Fighter (A-Wing) and three Tier 4 escorts (X Wings). Disable the X-Wings as fast as you can. You may then focus on the A-Wing for a few minutes without having to worry about the other fighters pounding on you. Once you disable the A-Wing, /inspect it. If the inspection comes back [Rebel Orders (encrypted)], pull up close and /dock with the ship. If it comes back as anything else, destroy the A-Wing and wait for another one to spawn. Repeat this process until you /inspect one that comes back [Rebel Orders (encrypted)]. As soon as you have retrieved these orders and docking is complete you will begin the next leg of your mission. Second Leg Name of Mission: Rebel Counterstrike Type of Mission: Destroy Description: As soon as you have retrieved the orders from your previous target a wave of five Tier 3 A-Wings will spawn. You simply need to destroy all five. Third Leg Warning: The third leg of the mission is located very close to a Tier 4 Rebel spawn. Watch where you are flying as you do not want to fly too close to or directly into that spawn. Name of Mission: Inspect the Rebel Advanced Recon Freighter Type of Mission: Inspect and Dock Description: You will fly about 10k from your current position to intercept a Tier 3 Rebel Freighter. The Freighter will have four Tier 3 fighters (X-Wings & Y-Wings) protecting it. Disable the fighters as fast as you can and then disable the Freighter. Pull up close to the Freighter and /inspect it. Your objective is to obtain [Encrypted Rebel reports] from the Freighter. If your inspection comes back with anything other than that, destroy the Freighter and wait for another one to spawn. Once you have retrieved the [Encrypted Rebel Reports] from the Freighter, this leg of your mission will be complete. Fourth Leg Name of Mission: Drop off the Rebel Data. Type of Mission: Delivery Description: Your objective is simple, hyper to D-435 and rendezvous with a Lambda shuttle to deliver the orders you recovered from the first and third legs of this mission. You will face waves of Tier 3 fighters on your way to the shuttle. Ignore them and keep going to the shuttle as fast as you can. If things get too rough, hyper back to D-435 and give yourself a minute or two to recover before proceeding to the shuttle again. Fifth Leg Name of Mission: Patrol the Endor System Type of Mission: Patrol Description: You will be given a series of four waypoints. After reaching the fourth waypoint you will be given the last leg of this mission. Fifth Leg Name of Mission: Battle the Rebel Forces Type of Mission: Destroy Description: The 3rd TIE Wing has encountered heavy Rebel resistance and has ordered all available pilots to proceed to their location. Shortly after you arrive the Rebels will hyper in to your location. You are to destroy all of the rebel vessels before they can destroy you and/or your support fighters. The rebel attack wing will consist of one Tier 3 Nova Courier and 9 Tier 3 escorts (A-Wings and X-Wings). This leg of the mission will be quite tricky because you do not yet have a bomber strike command. The only real way to complete this mission solo is to move in and start doing strafing runs against the Nova. You will want to disable the Nova by targeting is engines or reactor. I cannot stress enough that you need to use your droid commands for this mission, particularly capacitor to shield shunt 3. Once the Nova is disabled you can start pulling the escort fighters out of range to disable and destroy them. By the time the last fighter is destroyed, the Nova should have self destructed. If it isn't, circle around and do a few strafing runs until it is destroyed. You may now return to Captain Denner on Yavin to claim your reward, train in your second Tier 3 skill and pick up your next mission. Reward: 25,000 credits, 100 Imperial faction points and a Sienar Fleet Systems Military Grade Droid Interface for your ship (Cert Level 6) Mission 3: Number of Legs in Mission: 5 First Leg Name of Mission: Delivering a New Plan Type of Mission: Delivery Description: Proceed to the waypoint in the Endor system and wait for the Lambda shuttle to hyper into the system. When it arrives, dock with it and upload the fake plans. When the shuttle arrives you will be ambushed by two waves of Tier 3 fighters. If you disable one wave it should delay the second wave long enough for you to /dock with the shuttle and transmit the plans. Once the plans are uploaded the shuttle will instruct you to begin killing rebels in the area while he prepares the decoy shuttle. Second Leg Name of Mission: Seek & Destroy Rebel Fighters Type of Mission: Destroy Description: This will be a very short mission. You simply need to destroy any rebel ships that spawn while you wait for the decoy shuttle. Third Leg Name of Mission: Destroy Four Rebel Fighter Waves Type of Mission: Destroy Description: Travel to the waypoint and rendezvous with the decoy shuttle. Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is destroy four waves of rebel fighters. Each wave must be completely destroyed before the next wave spawns! The waves spawn about every 2 minutes and each will consist of three Tier 3 A-Wings and one Tier 3 B-Wing. If you are bound and determined to do this mission solo, my best advice would be to disable all the ships in each wave. You should then have no problem destroying them before the next wave spawns. If you fail to destroy four full waves you will fail the entire mission and have to start all over. For more inexperienced pilots, you might want to check around and see if a pilot friend is available to help you with this mission as A-Wings can be a little difficult to hit. Once you have successfully destroyed four full waves you will begin the next leg of your mission. Fourth Leg Name of Mission: Destroy the Rebel Strikeforce Type of Mission: Destroy Description: You will be ambushed by six Tier 3 fighters (X-Wings and A-Wings). This leg of the mission is very simple as all you have to do is destroy the fighters. Fifth Leg Name of Mission: Scanning System for Rebel Command Type of Mission: Defend & Destroy Description: You will proceed to the ambush location and hold your position for 10 minutes. During that 10 minutes you will be attacked by six waves of Tier 3 fighters (A-Wings and X-Wings). Each wave will consist of 7-9 fighters which will spawn every minute and thirty seconds. The fifth wave will include a Tier 3 Nova Courier and five Tier 3 fighters (A-Wings and X-Wings). You need to try and disable the fighters first then focus on the Nova. You will not have a lot of time to destroy everything before the last wave spawns. Just like your last Tier 3 mission set, you will want to disable the Nova as quickly as you can so it will stop following you and allow you to pull the fighters out of range of its weapons to disable/destroy them. Disable the Nova by targeting its engine or reactor. Please keep in mind, your only objective on this leg of the mission is to stay alive until the system scan is 100% complete. You will receive updates on the status of the scan at 10% intervals (10%, 20%, 30%, etc.). Once the scan reaches 100% your mission will be complete. You may now clean up any remaining fighters and the NOVA then return to Captain Denner to claim your reward, train in your third Tier 3 skill and pick up your final Tier 3 mission. You now have a Bomber Strike command that can be used on future missions to give you some extra fire power. Reward: 25,000 credits, 100 Imperial faction points and a Sienar Design Systems Hi-Output Reactor for your ship (Cert Level 6) Mission 4: Number of Legs in Mission: 4 First Leg Name of Mission: Destroy the Rebel X-Wing Squadron Type of Mission: Destroy Description: Proceed to the waypoint and destroy the five Tier 3 X-Wings. Second Leg Name of Mission: Rescue the Imperial Lambda Shuttle Type of Mission: Dock and Escort Description: Rendezvous and dock with the Lambda shuttle. Once docking is complete, escort the shuttle to its hyper point out of the Endor system. You will be attacked by waves of Tier 3 fighters. The waves will alternate Tier 3 X-Wings and Tier 3 A-Wings. There will be approximately 5 fighters per wave. Third Leg Name of Mission: Inspect the Rebel Command Shuttle. Type of Mission: Disable & Dock Description: Your objective is to travel to the waypoint where you will find a wild spawn that includes a Tier 4 Nova Courier and four Tier 4 X Wings. Close to 1000m away from the Nova, target its engine and call in bomber strike 1. Your goal here is to get your bombers to distract the Nova and X-Wings long enough for you to run some strafing runs against the Nova's engines and weapons. As soon as the ship is disabled and weaponless, move in FAST and /dock with it. Your bombers should be keeping the X-Wings busy enough that they will not fire on you while you are docked. Unfortunately, your bombers will be firing on the Nova while you are docked so you need to be quick about docking. Once you have finished docking, boost away from the scene as quickly as possible. Fourth Leg Name of Mission: Destroy the Rebel Command Ship Type of Mission: Destroy Description: The final leg of your mission is to destroy the Rebel command ship and its escorts. The command ship is, once again, a Tier 4 Nova Courier. The escorts consist of 5 Tier 3 X-Wings. This mission also passes right through a wild spawn of two Tier 4 Rebel B-Wings and two Tier 4 Rebel A-Wings. This means you will be fighting these ships at the same time you are dealing with those for your mission. Before you feel overwhelmed, target the Nova's engine or reactor and strafe it. As soon as it passes you, boost away about 1500m and recharge your shields. You can now circle around and strafe the engine or reactor again. Repeat this process several times until the Nova is disabled. Once you have disabled the Nova you can pull the Tier 3 fighters out of range and disable them. Don't worry about trying to destroy everything right now. Just focus on disabling everything so you can clean it all up when you are done. Once the last X-Wing is disabled your Nova should have self destructed and your mission will be complete. You can now either stay and engage the Tier 4 ships that have been hitting you for the last 5 minutes or you can return to Captain Denner on Yavin to claim your reward and train in your final Tier 3 skill. Reward: 25,000 credits, 100 Imperial faction points and a Cygnus "Megadrive" Starship Engine for your ship (Cert Level 6) Message edited by NarfBlinko on 02/17/2007 16:43:48.

Administrators eqsanctum 1,636 Author Administrators Share Posted January 20, 2017 Tier 4: After completing your last Tier 3 mission you will be reassigned to Admiral Kilnstrider, who is located at the Research Outpost on Endor (3226, -3435). Once you have earned 1,000,000 xp, the Admiral will train you in your first Tier 4 skill. When you have finished training, the Admiral will offer you your first Tier 4 mission. Mission 1: Number of Legs in Mission: 5 First Leg Name of Mission: Patrol the Endor System Type of Mission: Patrol Description: Travel to a series of waypoints. Second Leg Name of Mission: Destroy the Rebel Ambush Type of Mission: Destroy Description: On your way to the fourth waypoint you will be ambushed by five Tier 4 A-Wings. Destroy the A-Wings to complete this leg of the mission. Third Leg Name of Mission: Battle the Rebel Forces Type of Mission: Destroy Description: After destroying the ambush fighters you will receive a distress call from a TIE squadron that is under attack. Proceed to their location where you will find two Tier 4 Nova Couriers and nine Tier 4 escorts (X-Wings and Y-Wings). Your objective here is to destroy the rebel battle group before they destroy you or all of your support fighters. As soon as the Rebel ships hyper in, pull out to about 1000m and let your support fighters draw the aggro from the Nova's. Once they have the rebel's attention, you can fly in, target the engine on one of the Nova's and do a couple of strafing runs on it. These runs should soften one of the Nova's up enough for your support wing to destroy it. You can now pull out of range and engage the fighters, who will aggro you the moment you begin to damage the Nova. Do not worry about destroying the fighters for now, just disable them as fast as you can and then head back to help your support wing finish off the second Nova. Target the second Nova's engine or reactor and do a quick strafing run. As soon as you pass by the Nova, boost out of range as fast as you can and let your shields and booster recharge. Once both are recharged, go back for another pass on the Nova, again targeting its engine or reactor. Do this a couple of times until the Nova is disabled. You should then have no trouble helping your support wing destroy it. Fourth Leg Name of Mission: Inspect the Rebel A-Wing Scout Type of Mission: Disable, Inspect and Dock Description: Proceed to the waypoint where you will find a Tier 4 Rebel A-Wing Scout. This is a static spawn and could be under attack by random Imperial spawns in the area. Disable the scout as quick as you can and, after inspecting it, dock with it before any nearby Imperials destroy it. You are looking for [sector Maps and Battle Orders] on the scout. If you get anything other than this you will need to disable and destroy another scout until you get one with this information. Fifth Leg Name of Mission: Deliver the Rebel Plans to Command Type of Mission: Delivery Description: Rendezvous with the Lambda shuttle then dock with it to transfer the orders you just retrieved from the scout. Once you have finished docking your mission will be complete. You may now return to the Admiral to claim your reward. After you have received your reward, you will go back to grinding out experience until you have enough to train in your next skill and do your second Tier 4 mission. Reward: 10,000 Credits, 150 Imperial faction points and a Sienar Design Systems "Boltdriver" weapon (Cert Level 7) Mission 2: Number of Legs in Mission: 4 First Leg Name of Mission: Capture Bothan Controlled Engineer Transport Type of Mission: Capture & Escort Description: Travel to the waypoint given to you by Storm Squadron command. There you will find one Tier 4 freighter and four Tier 4 Bothan escorts (neutral fighters). Disable the fighters first. Then you can disable the transport and allow it to be captured. You will now escort the ship through the Endor system to its hyper point. Along the way you will be attacked by waves of Tier 4 fighters. There will be two types of waves which will alternate. The first wave will type consist of eight Tier 4 ships (X-Wings, Y-Wings and B-Wings). The second wave type will consist of four Tier 4 A-Wings. The waves spawn about every 5 minutes. Second Leg Name of Mission: Recover Another Stolen Engineer Transport Type of Mission: Capture & Escort Description: Travel to the waypoint given to you by Storm Squadron command. There you will find one Tier 4 freighter and five Tier 4 Bothan escorts (neutral fighters). Disable the fighters first. Then you can disable the transport and allow it to be captured. You will now escort the ship through the Endor system to its hyper point. Along the way you will be attacked by waves of Tier 4 fighters. There will be two types of waves which will alternate. The first wave type will consist of eleven Tier 4 ships (X-Wings, Y-Wings and B-Wings). The second wave type will consist of four Tier 4 A-Wings and two Tier 4 B-Wings. The waves spawn about every 5 minutes. Disable the fighters as quickly as you can but make sure you do not drift too far away from the transport. If you are out of range of the transport for too long you will fail the mission and have to start all over. Once the freighter has made it to the hyper point you will begin the third leg of your mission. Third Leg Name of Mission: Satellite Delivery Type of Mission: Docking Description: Proceed to the waypoint and dock with the freighter when it hypers into the system. As soon as the freighter hypers in a group of six Tier 4 fighters (X-Wings and Y-Wings) will hyper in and begin attacking you. Go ahead and dock with the shuttle and use your shield shunt command every time your droid says it is ready for a new command. This should keep you alive long enough to successfully receive the satellites from the freighter. Once you have the satellites, the fighters will remain in the system and continue to target you. You can either hyper to another part of them system to break aggro or disable them. The choice is yours but do it quickly so you can begin the last leg of your mission. Fourth Leg Name of Mission: Satellite Deliver: Part 2 Type of Mission: Delivery Description: Proceed to the waypoint to deliver the satellites you just picked up. When you arrive at the waypoint the freighter will hyper in as will six Tier 4 ambush fighters (X-Wings and B-Wings). Go ahead and dock with the freighter, again making sure you hit your shield shunt command every time your droid says it is ready for a new command. This should keep you alive long enough to complete the docking procedures. Once docking is complete your mission will be over. You may now destroy those fighters that hypered in, if you wish, and then return to the Admiral to claim your reward. After you have received your reward, you will go back to grinding out experience until you have enough to train in your next skill and do your third Tier 4 mission. Reward: 10,000 Credits, 150 Imperial faction points and a Cygnus "Holoscreen" Shield Generator (Cert Level 8) Mission 3: Number of Legs in Mission: 3 First Leg Name of Mission: Escort the Inquisitors Shuttle Type of Mission: Escort Description: Wow you guessed it, another escort mission. You will escort the Lambda shuttle to its destination in the Endor system. Along the way you will be attacked by waves of Tier 4 fighters (A-Wings, X-Wings, Y-Wings and B-Wings). There will be four fighters per wave. Second Leg Name of Mission: Rescue the Stolen Shuttle Type of Mission: Dock and Escort Description: Travel to the waypoint given to you by Storm Squadron command. When the Lambda shuttle hypers in, dock with it. Once docking is complete you will escort the shuttle to a safe hyper point. Along the way you will be attacked by waves of Tier 4 fighters in 2 wave types. The first type will consist of A-Wings, X-Wings, Y-Wings and B-Wings. The second wave type will consist of four A-Wings. Third Leg Name of Mission: Battle the Rebel Forces Type of Mission: Docking Description: Gray Squadron has sent out a call for all available pilots to report to their location to fight off an incoming Rebel attack. Gray Squadron consists of one Tier 4 Imperial Gunboat and six Tier 4 escort fighters. Shortly after you arrive at their location, the Rebel battle group will hyper in. The rebel battle group consists of two Tier 4 gunboats and eight Tier 4 escort fighters. As soon as they hyper in, target the engine on one of the gunboats and immediately call in Bomber Strike 2. Pull back about 1000m to allow your bombers to fully draw the aggro of the fighters and one of the gunboats. You may now target the engine on the second gunboat and begin doing strafing runs against it. After each run hit your booster and recharge your shields. As soon as your shield is recharged, circle around and strafe the gunboat again. Repeat this process until the gunboat's engine is destroyed. If at all possible, try to approach the gunboat on your strafing runs from its underside. Rebel gunboats have a very large blind spot underneath. If you stay in the blind spot their weapons cannot hit you. Once you have disabled the first gunboat, you can focus on the second one. Again, target the gunboat's engine and do a few strafing runs against it. Once it is disabled your bombers should be able to take it from there while you and the Gray Squadron fighters take out the escort fighters. If you fumble your bomber strike, you can still do this mission by allowing the Gray Squadron to draw the aggro of one of the gunboats and the fighters while you strafe and disable the second gunboat. Once it is disabled you can do the same thing to the second gunboat and then focus on the escort fighters. Your objective here is to destroy the rebel battle group before they destroy you or all of your Gray Squadron fighters. Once you complete this mission you should return to the Admiral to claim your reward. After you have received your reward, you will go back to grinding out experience until you have enough to train in your next skill and do your final Tier 4 mission. Reward: 10,000 Credits, 150 Imperial faction points and a Republic Sienar Systems Special Durasteel (armor) (Cert Level 8) Mission 4: Number of Legs in Mission: 4 ***WARNING: If you are not a very experienced pilot, you would be well advised to bring a pilot friend to help with this mission as the last leg of this mission can be difficult to solo. First Leg Name of Mission: Destroy the Captured Engineer Transport Type of Mission: Destroy Description: Proceed to the waypoint in the Dantooine system and destroy the Tier 4 transport and its five Tier 4 Bothan escorts. Second Leg Name of Mission: Destroy the Captured Engineer Transport: Part II Type of Mission: Destroy Description: Proceed to the waypoint in the Dantooine system and destroy the Tier 4 transport and its five Tier 4 Bothan escorts. Third Leg Name of Mission: Capture the Stolen Engineer Transport Type of Mission: Capture & Escort Description: Proceed to the waypoint and destroy the Tier 4 Bothan escort fighters. You can then disable the Tier 4 transport and prepare to escort it. Once the escort begins you will be attacked by a Tier 4 X-Wing, unless you have a really slow engine, then you may see more. Fourth Leg Name of Mission: Destroy the Rebel Command Vessel Type of Mission: Destroy Description: As soon as you finish the third leg, a rebel battle group will hyper into Dantooine space near your position. The battle group consists of one Tier 4 Rebel Gunboat, two Tier 3 Nova Courier's and nine fighters (3 Tier 4 X-Wings, 3 Tier 4 Y-Wings, 3 Tier 3 B-Wings). All ships in the battle group will concentrate their fire on you the moment you fire on any of them. They will also follow you if you try to escape. If you do not have a friend helping you, I found that the least suicidal way to complete this mission is to pull up 1000m from the battle group and target the engine on the gunboat. You can then call in bomber strike 2 and let your bombers wear down the shields and armor on the gunboat. As soon as the armor is down, run a couple of quick strafe runs on to take out its engine. After you have taken out the gunboat's engine, move out of range and target the engine or reactor on one of the Nova's. Remember, the Nova's and fighters will all be traveling in a pack behind you as soon as you open fire on the gunboat so you will have to move quickly and definitely watch your shields. As soon as you disable the first Nova, pull out of range of its weapons and target the engine or reactor on the second Nova. Disable it the same way you disabled the first one. Once the two Nova's and gunboat are disabled, you can pull the fighters completely out of range and take them out. After you destroy the fighters the mission will be complete and you can return to the Admiral on Endor to claim your reward. Reward: 10,000 Credits, 150 Imperial faction points and a Republic Sienar Systems Advanced Military-Grade Reactor (Cert Level 8) Message edited by NarfBlinko on 02/17/2007 18:17:51.
