Purple Ackie	Posted - 2009.04.12 20:05:00 - [1] Edited by: Purple Ackie on 12/04/2009 20:13:29 My character was a victem of suicide ganking just a few days ago. I was using a Bestower to transport stuff from Jita to Amarr, and I was scanned down about 1 system before the gank. I lost about 1.5 billion ISK to the gank, which represents about half my efforts in Eve so far. I was about to quit Eve just after this happened, it was pretty sickening, but have changed my mind and would like to ask if there is a way to protect oneself against it. I gave CCP some mouth, because I put all my cargo in password protected Giant Secure Containers, thinking this would be ok. Needless to say I was informed by CCP that they only work in space, so I'm left wondering, what can I do to protect myself from folks that like to gank young traders like myself? Do you need a freighter for the hit points, or a transport ship with a cloak?

Do you need a freighter for the hit points, or a transport ship with a cloak? Have you tried anchoring your cans in space...shooting them to 1-2hp...unanchoring them, put your shinies in said can....and hoping that "when" you get ganked...at least the gankers might not get anything..since if they pop the can..everything in it pops too? As for a cloak...umm????? WTZ? A cloak won't help you AP your way through anywhere.

Wtf is that? If you put stuff in GSC, then the game rolls once for the gsc, so either the gsc drops with everything inside or blows up with everything inside, HP has nothing to do with it. CCP released Orcas/Freighters and blockade runners that can use a cov ops cloak to transport high value goods. If you use those transport ships suicide gankers won't be able to scan you, let alone attempt to suicide gank. Of course if you are afk flying then you deserve to get ganked. Originally by: CCP Whisper So you're going to have to do some actual thinking with regards to hull components and their capabilities instead of copying some cookie-cutter setup. Cry some more.

This seems like a decent response. Thanks Vaal. Anyone can add to this please do so....
FarosWarrior Amarr Sonnema	Posted - 2009.04.12 20:55:00 - [9] I have 2 things to say, and it wont be something like "noob gb2wow" 1: don't transport high-valued stuff in a bestower 2: don't transport very high-valued stuff (like 1.5b worth of stuff) afk anywhere on AP, WTZ is your friend cheers, Faros
Wongdong	Posted - 2009.04.12 21:00:00 - [10] welcome 2 EvE,where the name should be player verses every1. so to you Gl next time,maybe you'll know enuf to get away!!!
Karma97731	Posted - 2009.04.12 21:21:00 - [11] Don't listen to these worthless guys. The next time you decide to transport some high ISKs worth of product you use a 2nd account to first scout out the path you are going to take. After this then it is okay to proceed with using the bestower to transport your goods. I'm surprised you actually came in here and made a thread about this. Don't you know that these people in C&P are nothing more than losers and abused children? They delight in knowing you lost something, and I even BET that now since you've posted a few of these idiots are trying to figure out a way to take more away from you. Don't post again.

Bargain Hunt	Posted - 2009.04.12 21:36:00 - [15] x = value of cargo y = value of ships/mods required to gank your ship (keeping in mind insurance) Keep x < y.
Larkonis Trassler Neo Spartans	Posted - 2009.04.12 21:40:00 - [16] I was about to lol at the OP, then I realised it was Purple Aki a living legend amongst Merseyside Nonces. Seriously mate, if you've been playing long enough to acrue 1.5 bil's worth of stuff then you should know better than that.
Purple Ackie	Posted - 2009.04.12 22:14:00 - [17] Originally by: Panzram what kind of ship(s) killed you? what sec was the system? An electronic attack frigate scanned me in 0.5, Narjia, or some system like that, and a Megathron whacked me the next exit gate in 0.9, two systems from Amarr, 1 from Romi. Began with an M.

Ehhh-heee.

Miilla	Posted - 2009.04.13 10:46:00 - [23] If anybody wants to have fun ganking, go to Perimeter on Sunday as Jita entry gate is queued up with a LOT of haulers :) Big isk there to be ganked people :)

Skallebank Minmatar Shut Up And Play	Posted - 2009.04.13 11:27:00 - [25] Don't autopilot with a cargo over 200 m in any ship with low hp. Don't carry all ur stuff in one go . Don't assume you are safe in empire. particularly around trade hubs and between them. Do warp to 0 on gates ect and fit at least one wcs. Fit inertial stabs to get into warp faster. Tbh if you absolutely have to move a bunch of crap at once , follow all the rules and make it 2 or 3 trips instead of one. small loads keeping the isk value down. FREEDOM OF SPEECH, WHATS THAT ?

Fzhal Caldari Deep Core Mining Inc.	Posted - 2009.04.13 14:28:00 - [30] There are some decent tips here. I'll add my own. 1 Throw off the scanners by transporting a bunch of worthless crap. Mix in a few of your expensive stuff. Few scanners are going to bother scrolling through 200+ icons to find the phat loot. In that time they could miss another ship with loot. 2 Use a fast ship. For instance the Punisher is the only frigate that has 4 low slots. So you can use 2 WCS and 2 inertial stabs.
