I just failed 'Clouds of Vondoru'...

... because I had the proton torpedo launcher installed. Was unable to destroy all 4 shield generators, as I rarely had the chance for the long lock-on timer of the torpedos. Spamming right mouse button for missiles, however, did... nothing?

What kind of joke is this?

Yup, same thing happening to me. I was beating this with normal torps, get photons, it's been 3/4 blown up every time... frustrating

I think the problem is that you're trying to use photon torpedoes which don't exist in the Star Wars universe.

It IS possible... you just REALLY need to take note of the right moments in which to do it.

I can use the photons to kill 3 generators easily but the 4th doesn't seem to allow regular shooting (buffed up as well with the converter) and/or regular torpedos do ANY damage to the last one. I need to unequip the photons to get regular damage working on generators again. No use buying photons in that case imho

Dear sweet merciful midichlorians! They are proton torpedoes not photon torpedoes. If you want photons go play STO.

There are 4 proton torpedoes, 4 generators. Match made in heaven. Just did this mission a couple hours ago.

Weird, I looked at the name of the icon/item and it says 4 proton torps, yet when I equip them I start off with 3 when I'm in a space mission.
