Many elder pilots have done the complete quest series alone and without missiles or counter measures flying Heavy X-wings just applying the right tactical movements and following predefined routes.
- Improve your tactical flying styles: You may want to learn some evasion tactics if you want to survive a couple of Tier 8s on your six.
- Be aware of the T7 to T10 missiles and keep in mind how much damage they can do: For comparison of difficulty a Tier 7 missile will do around 2k damage, a Tier 8 missile 2.5k and a Tier 10 blaster can do 1.5-2k.
