Guide: (Hidden) Space Bonus Missions

Bioware hates me, so of course they dropped the 1.2 patch as soon as I left town for a week.

 

I'll get back home and have time to play again the middle of next week, so expect another update to the Guide then to cover any/all changes made with the 1.2 update.

Actually there is 5, There are 2 at the end of the mission. I have 3 killed by the time i reach the last mine layer. They are flying pretty far away and are hard to tell from the other fighters but they are there. If you shoot at them and they don't explode right away they are the Heavy fighters.

 

Good catch. I never noticed that before. Found it today, but only because I was looking for it.

 

On a slightly more broad note, I"m almost done with the new guide. Expect the update tomorrow.

Nez Peron Sweep / Archenar Interception:

Main: Destroy Fighters (60) - 645 credits, 1 Fleet Commendation

Bonus 1: Destroy Capital Ship Turrets (12) - 198 credits

Bonus 2: Destroy Fighters (100) - 1158 credits - (lvl 34 min)

Bonus 3: Destroy Capital Ship Bridge - 2538 credits - Daily Bonus (discovered by Auhfel)

[Can be completed with missiles]

 

Has anyone actually taken out the bridge on Archenar Interception with missiles? I can do it almost every time on Nez Peron Sweep, where I usually get the bridge taken down just before it flies past for the final time. Nez Peron Sweep gives you 3 passes over the bridge, while Archenar only gives you 2, and for the first pass there is a huge asteroid that hides the bridge while flying in. You can shoot through asteroids, but targeting is tricky. I want to say that the Archenar bridge is impossible to do given that you get less passes than Nez Peron, and Nez Peron's bridge is only barely possible. However, maybe it's possible to get it with perfect targeting through the asteroid, even though I really doubt it.

 

Hence my question: has anyone actually taken out the bridge on Archenar Interception with missiles?

2/9/2012: Clouds of Vondoru / Zosha Advance

Main: Destroy Capital Ship Shield Generators (4) and Turrets (20) - 4020 credits, 5 Fleet Commendations

Bonus 1: Destroy fighters and turrets (75) - 1526 credits

Bonus 2: Destroy the capital ship's bridge - 2538 credits(CoV awards 0 currently) - Daily (possibly bugged) Bonus

[With the Ship Bridge not awarding credits, unless you have a severe hankering for 680 Legacy XP, my recommendation is to use all 4 torpedoes on the shield generators]

[Despite being a rehash of Serapin Assault, there is no Frigate Shield/Engine bonus]

 

I was just awarded 2,538 credits for taking out the ship's bridge on Zosha Advance. Just wanted to clarify that it's working republic side, at least. :cool:

Operation Silent Roar / Operation Midnight Freedom - 502 credits, 4 Fleet Commendations

Jabiim Escort / Fondor Escort:

Main: Protect the Shuttle - 330 credits, 1 Fleet Commendation

Bonus 3: Destroy the Capital Ship Bridge - 2538 credits - Daily Bonus (discovered by Temptis)

[Cannot be completed with missiles, due to limited time the bridge is on screen]

[Also, there are 3 Capital Ships in this mission. The first one (that launches the shuttle) does not count, but the other 2 do.]

[On the Republic side, you want the second one. I didn't get an exact time, but it shows up fairly early on (maybe 1 minute in), dropping in from Hyperspace on your left. -Terren]

 

This one is a complete b**** to get. It's like I miss 0.2 second to fire my torpedo...

 

I like a challenge (like the new heroics) but seriously I can't see the point of having a bridge that is on screen just the time it takes to be shot. And not one extra second.

The achievement "Sullust Interception Mastery" is bugged, I think. It has a new bonus requirement (0/1 Decimate Republic Forces) that doesn't exist, and thus can't be completed. Also, on the Republic equivalent (Drexel Sweep), this bonus objective doesn't exist either.
