Jumpholes

If you are stuck in a mission and do not know how to continue, this is the place to ask for help. Missing that elusive Level 10 Shield? Don''t know where to find the lost Ohtori ship? This is the only place where spoilers are allowed!

Has anyone ever noticed that jumpholes are blocking all shots you or anyone else fires? So actually you're invincible (not tested with missiles and torpedoes though) while inside a jumphole (before/after docking). Sou you can go inside, let your energy restore, go out and kill'em all.

um... what do you mean by "go inside"? if you dock with it, you go to a different system where you can find more enemies...

You can still 'fly inside' one without docking, though I'm not sure if this makes you invincible or not. Another tactic to try (very dangerous) is, when really desperate, you can hide in a planet's atmosphere. There is a very narrow region in which you can still survive without crashing, yet the AI thinks you are dead, and can't see you, so they break off and fly away. Again, this is very difficult, and it takes time to place yourself correctly (use strafing thrusters only!) but it can be useful.

yeah, I noticed the jumphole thing. But you have to be in just the right place, and I'm pretty sure missles can penetrate them.

Beware pirates bearing gifts!
