this is really starting to tick me off

[Tenacity]

are not, at the moment, reasonable... in any way, shape, or form.

I manage to solo one out of every three or four missions, i'm actually losing rep by trying to gain it. I fly a Collector, and even the fricken bombers out-turn me. I switch to a gallic HF, and I get spammed with four gunboats at once, and I cant even scratch their goddamn shields. You fly a capship in gallia and you get owned by bomber spam.

It's ridiculous. Find a way to tell someone what ships they're going to be going up against, or take the damn bombers and capships out. I'm tired of taking a 100-200k mission and either ending up with six bombers on my ass, or a fleet of gunboats. Whoever designed these missions failed, horribly.

I solo nine out of ten missions in a vhf, that one mission being gunboats at random. Learn what missions to pick, npc bombers even with snacs are easy to own in a fighter.
Alternatively you could take lessons on how to pilot a fighter :D

i tested many gallic missions in the closed beta - with a weak zoner GB. - i think my success rate was more than 9/10 - and lost missions mostly due to RL issues like leaving the keyboard in the mid of a mission cause i had to do work in the kitchen or answer the door.

and of course there s always the possibility to team up with someone - no one forces one to "solo" missions.

You will not want to pick any missions ranked 40 or up. Those tend to have gunboats showing up, if not giant waves of bombers; 39 is borderline in terms of larger vessels showing up.

And yes, the missions can be incredibly rough but they are still do-able. Dijon Station has a good number of missions that are lower ranked, and the payoff is usually large enough to still make a profit despite any potential damage sustained (aside from being shot down).

There's no one in Gallia, Jinx. So...you can't be helped...

I wasnt flying alone today, it was me in a gallic civilian HF with another guy repping up GRN, in a VHF.

We got through two waves of fighters, and our "assassination" target shows up in a gunboat with two other gunboats escorting him. There isnt jack that two fighters with no heavy weaponry can do against a gunboat, especially when they're spamming GB razors at you every couple of seconds.

I tried doing a mission in Galia 3 days after 4.85 came out and got bomber spammed. I have never gone there again, if the number of bombers was reduced it would be much better. I might even consider going back to Galia!

I agree though, tried some missions in gallia on open sp and they're really hard.

Pretty much yeah, and you wonder why is Gallia cap spammed nowadays. Unless they figure a way to separate gunboat missions from vhf missions, you'll pretty much need a gunboat/cruiser/battleship friend with you, if you even think of repping a character up there.

That is a problem up there, you usually need to get something else in a GB to help you.

Anything I say is not intended as offensive, and to try and deliberately misinterpret it as such would be an attempt at trolling via misrepresentation.

It's not a conspiracy, it's localised bias. They're not intelligent enough to form a conspiracy.
