difficult choices?

May 06, 2014 cnaw link
Is this mission bugged or something? The mission tells me that transports are seen all the time in wormhole sectors, but 10-30 minutes of waiting in any wormhole sector(without a station) results in nothing but the sound of my engines. I want to continue on in the mission tree, but if this mission can't be beaten, i'll be extremely disappointed.

Hi cnaw,

The wormhole is just a clue or hint in the mission description, so that new players have the opportunity to find targets with higher probability. Definitely convoys transiting between systems will pass through wormhole sectors. Compared to any other sector except station sectors, probability of finding transports will be higher in case of WH sectors. If you cannot find ships camping at one wh, try patroling 2-3 systems, so that you run into larger trade convoys, or individual traders.

I'm just interpreting the mission description, not giving you hints, \me being a devoted trader.

I hope I could help you to enjoy your play.

It's hit and miss. Also, some wormholes are more busy than others.

You could have a fellow pirate cohort take an escort mission and you could stage an ambush for the convoy...

With the faux station traffic now you could go to a corvus station and zap them all too and not lose standing if you're capable of dodging some SF for a few min.

The point is, the mission doesn't generate the voy traffic, you're meant to kill escort voy traffic that travels around, arf made a good suggestion if you have friends

You can also start an escort mission, note the route, and abort it as soon as you launch. Then redock and quickly take the difficult choices mission, and go chase down and kill the convoy you abandoned. You monster.
