Xenon capital ship kill count

[xant]

I know there are some problems with the kill count during the final stage of Shady Business, but after killing a J, three K, an I and a Q the mission description is still demanding 25 kills (in Segaris).

So my question is, am I told how much ships are left or do I have to kill them until the mission is accomplished?

The title of the mission log still indicates 25 but the content should show the remaining number. You can check again.

But don't do what I did and look at the briefing for the wrong sector and wonder what's going on.....

When I look at the mission details, I get the following:


0:

0:

0:

Destroy: 25 Xenon capital class ships in Segaris


So may I assume all those kills didn't count? That would be a waste of my precious shadow missiles.

And btw, do kills by the hand of my own fleet count or do I have to pilot the ship giving the killing blow?

I don't think the Xenon capital ships that may have already been in those sectors from before your first arrival there on task in person count towards the mission kills. So you may have to kill 3-4 before the counter starts to decrement. All my opinion based on what happened in my own play-through.

Yes....even if you are not in the sector.

btw, does that mission scale on your combat rank?
