Has anyone taken on a pirate lord?

With a friend.

I ask because i tried the other day and my friend was either struggling or unable to drop into the same instance.

He did have the ability as he followed my wake a previous time, but when i found the lord he couldnt.

Also on the way bqck i was intercepted by a pirate and waited for him for a laugh. Unfortunately when he dropped in the pirate was invisible to him. So he couldnt do anything.

As a heads up for Ed makers they need to make intercepting enemies visible for both.
 
I reported this to FD some time ago. The only instances that seem to work are when you and a friend drop out at a USS. If either of you are interdicted by an NPC then dropping on your friends location will not provide all of the instance data necessary for you both to see him. Hopefully, the fix will come in 1.2.
 
Have helped friends out with assassination or other missions a number of times, in a number of different previous patches going all the way back to release day, but haven't had the chance to try it with 1.1 yet since I decided to take a trip to a different part of the galaxy.

He dropped out of SC at the USS or destination of his choosing, and then I targeted his FSD wake and dropped out of SC with that as a destination.

I did have to fiddle with some port forwarding settings on my firewall to make sure UDP packets were getting through properly, but that it something most people will not likely have to do if their router supports UPnP. However if something's not configured right and data isn't getting through, then that may be a possible reason why things are bugged.
