Edited by: Femme X on 13/06/2006 09:08:12 My question: How to tank against CONCORD next to a gate or outside a station?
I am 2 months old, and as soon as I behave aggressively and CONCORD started shooting at me, I won't last more than one second. I am using frigs, and I tried using a cruiser on the test server. I tried doing this at a 0.3 system.
Will you be able to tank against their damage later in the game? With better skills and ships and fitting?
So how do pirates with -5.0 sec status survive at an empire gate killing innocent passer-bys?

You don't tank concord. If you've done something to annoy concord in high sec space, then you will lose your ship. Finding a way to evade concord in high sec is an exploit.
Pirates with a -5.0 sec rating can't enter safe space. Concord doesn't appear in low sec. That's how they sit at gates and kill passers-by (they have to tank the sentry guns though, or sit at 150km out of range).
Pirates who attack people in high sec space will lose their ship (suicide ganks) and they usually have a corp mate or alt sitting nearby in a hauler to pick up the loot dropped by both ships.

To clarify i think you mean tanking against the sentry's not the entire concorde police in high sec you have to mention this otherwise you get a bunch of posts saying how much of a sploit it is etc etc etc
If you want to tank sentries dont use anything smaller than a cruiser and if you want to use a cruiser your have better luck using a maller as it has very nice resists, alternatively you can use cruisers with a drone bay.
Sentry's do all types of damage and never miss, they cycle targets every 30 seconds roughly. So if you manage to get the sentrys to attack your drones your ship wont have to tank to much of the damage for to long.

You are referrign to tanking sentry guns, not CONCORD. First of all CONCORD doesn't exist in systems 0.4 sec status or lower and second of all, CONCORD is not tankable.
As for tanking sentry guns, you will need a battleship and decent skills.
As a postscript, if you want to PvP in the game, dont do piracy. Shooting a hauler or some guy not prepared to fight back wont teach you anything about pvp and wont prove you know what you are doing. If you want to pvp, there are plenty out there willing to pvp against you. Try taking a PvP University class (click on my signature) and learn the real fun. S******dly and Turby and those guys just snipe with little to no risk to themselves and if you ask me, that is bloody booring.

I think you may have stumbled on the reason they do it Rells. No skill required --

Try telling that to my gang last night when we hit a mining op with a Retriever and Scorpion. "Piracy" is not ganking at gates, that doesn't require as much skill as finding a target in the belts, hunting it down, and having its friends come in and fight you.
THAT is PvP, you don't have to pay someone for the experience.

Be warned, those acts of ship aggression, especially when the ships escape or don't yield extremely valuable mods, will seriously punish your security status.
Something to consider.

It is actually possible to destroy a CONCORD ship. A character by the name of Fog Render destoyed a CONCORD ship in his Megathron without losing his ship.

Nice if you like information 2 years out of date. ;) Back then I could about double my SP's every 5 minutes to.. Both have long since been fixed.
Yes you can destroy a concored ship.. more will just keep coming and if you escape... well better to lose a ship then your account. :)
