I had that idea of attacking mining vesals in low-sec, I looked in the map where I can find where the most poeple are but aprerantly low-sec is preaty dead, and where you do have some poeple I can't find any miners.
what is my idea wrong? maybe I should search in worm-hole space? |

You're idea isn't wrong, it's just the same as everyone else is lowsec.
Everyone attacks miners in lowsec, so mining in lowsec isn't something people just do. You'll have more luck roaming nullsec looking for miners working on industrial indexes for sov than finding a lot of miners in lowsec.
But really, if you want to attack miners, highsec is probably the best place to find targets that won't be prepared for it.

Pretty well summed up. Miners often congregate in herds too and will swarm you with drones if you mess with them. Then they have defense fleets. I'll give you some free intel: check out OX- and 4-C in scalding pass for miners. Be ready with a plan for the 20 man defense fleet that will come after you, though. (I suggest a fast nano-cruiser with high dps) |

some fatigue perhaps

as suggested to you yesterday in another thread where you called 2 people a gang, go watch some PVP videos on youtube. your ship setups need work. your knowledge of game mechanics needs work.

Makes me kind of sad, actually. Avoiding the wordfilter by saying "female dogs" instead was so much funnier...
I'd like to apologize for the poor quality of the post above and sincerely hope you didn't waste your time reading it.
Yes, I do feel bad about it.

What is wrong is that few people mine in lowsec, due to all the roaming solo pvp'ers and gangs. So you have few targets. The second think that is wrong is that most miners in lowsec will able to avoid you( see how, further on in text)
I mine sometimes on an alt to produce my own t1 frigates, when i don't feel like pvp'ing (on another alt).
What I normally do, is to only mine in a quiet system where I am the only one in local to start with. When someone drops in, I align station and spam my dscan. If they get closer and closer on Dscan I ready myself. If they land on grid I insta-warp to my insta-dock in station. If they leave system I go back, if not I log onto my pvp or station trading alt or play another game.
good luck catching that!
If miners do like this it means that it will be near impossible to kill an observant miner in lowsec. I think that the few people who mine in lowsec are probably the hardest miners to catch, as they live in a almost 100% pvp environment. So they have to be aware the whole time.
Another aspect is that I have only seen procurers in my slice of lowsec. Even if you would catch a procurer, they will most likely have some kind of tank so it will be hard to alpha them before they warp. I also fit mine with warp core stabs(I assume I am not the only one capable of this). So you would also have problems stopping me from warping away even if I wasn't prealigned.
You might have more luck in high sec (perhaps talk to some of the CODE guys, they do this on an everyday basis) or try in nulsec(Don't know if that would work with the info channels and so on?).
If you really really really only want to kill miners in lowsec you might have a better chance if you "trojan horse" approach them in a mining ship yourself with 2 scrams or something and chat them up in local so they think you won't attack them. Procurer can be pretty nasty if you have good drone skills.
Though most likely another guy like you, would attack your procurer before you can attack another procurer :D
I don't know if it would be possible to alpha them on dock(if they don't have an insta dock bookmark)? you can play around with EFT and calculate how many alpha gank ships(arty fit minmatar ships, are often used) you would need. Also calculate in that the ships should be able to tank the station guns, and if that is worth the effort for you.
TLDR: You have picked very rare and aware target, that almost have total control of if they want to be engaged (outside of gatecamps that is).
Sounds like a waste of time to me. But if you want to any way, go ahead and good luck. There is enough sand in the sandbox for everyone and their weird fetishes

Nullsec tends to have the group/multiboxed skiff type, which means a swarm of painful drones and probably a quick death even for a group of attackers.

Every change leaves the badguys just about to fall. If only there was another coalition that existed to destroy them, or more legions to be paid off, or more ceptors.
