Some of you might have noticed this already, but I figure I'd make note of it already...
There I was in my invisible Buzzard, idly watching this Raven rescue the Damsel, when he blew up the nearby pleasure hub.
I'm close by and suddenly my Buzzard's mostly red and alarms are going off...though I'm still cloaked, nobody's targeted me, and nobody even knows I'm there.
I go back and dock for repairs, but remain baffled by this event. I've never been damaged by a structure explosion before.
Fellow ninjas, take note.

You should fit sisters probe launcher and always use a fully rigged cov ops for ninjaing.
Recon 3/3 loves it when you do that. _______________

A couple weeks ago a couple alliance mates and I where bored with the regular PvP grind and decided to carebear it a bit. Mainly to raise a little isk and security status (NBSI in lowsec does bad things to your sec mmmk?).
So we end up with Damsel and plow through it merrily in a Paladin, Legion and Rifter.
Suddenly the rifter goes poof and we hear on TS: "The hub has an aoe..." XD fun stuff.
Recon 3/3 is a lot of fun! Once you finish off all the dmg waves; sit at the accel gate, drop a flight of cheap drones and wait for 10 or so minutes. :[
The other fun mission used to be Blockade, but it seems that they've recently removed the roids from it. Ninja tears from this mission where so delicious, especially after you tell them you killed them with a mining beam or mining drone. ;)

Consider yourself very lucky.
A friend of mine wanted to help out with my L4s in his manticore. We both knew the pleasure hub did considerable damage for up to 40km, so he got to 50.
Long story short, we learned that the pleasure hub deals damage up to 50km at least, and that lowest sell order for a manti in motsu was 27M.

When I enter a mission site and I see that it's D in D... I usually just warp out and delete the book mark...
Worst mission to ninja imo. ------------------ Go Deep! |

LOL, this sounds like what happened in my corp when they were doing damsel. Only it was punctuated with the question. "Where's my Manticore?" __________________ Look, a forum alt! |

Yeah, I may have been FCing a NinjaFleet and kinda, sorta, maybe misunderstood the range of the AOE damage in Kruulz. I got a phone call and went AFK in my stealth bomber, warping to a planet for safety. I warped back in time to see no firetails or bombers, just lots of pods.

This is one of the reasons I always ninja with a dc, mapc, mse rather than those precious speed mods. No one ever listens to me though so do die in a fire(tail) irl [ingame].

I don't really bother with tech II mods that often either.
salvage rig it if you like. adds to the cost (duh) but it makes more sense than fitting them to a flimsy speed setup TBH.
The laser is for whoring sec status increases from the juicy bs rats.
If you want faster and dont care for sec whoring, use a vigil, but it's cap sucks tbh.
Oh and if you want speedy faction salvaging, go big or go home (joking but w/e)

You need a KMB-75 5% cpu implant but look at that! no pesky mapc's or cpu ups in the lows. Yes I know its stupid, but so is losing faction frigs to pve asplosions.
/me waits for smack about these ships, yeah mate you think I don't know already? ----

The other option is to fly cheap crap istabed / od'd whatever frigs and give the runners the occasional laugh as you get squished in a volley or two. ----

I think that is exactly what he is saying considering that everyone knows that the ammo explosion when you kill that structure does AOE damage to all ships in the vicinity. SCHALAC HAS SPOKEN |

If you define failure as not knowing about that big boom at the end, then yes, I failed.
If you define failure as losing the ship, then no...I docked, had a coffee while the engineers hammered out the dents, then got right back on the horse and harvested mucho scrap.
And I'm well aware of Recon 3/3. That's part of the adventure, isn't it? I've pulled in about 200 million so I can replace the occasional loss of a Buzzard, methinks.

Whoops.
And this is why I used to ninja in a cruiser.. Always.. No changing ships to scan and salvage, more hold for loots, able to NOT get popped by the mission... Sure it took me longer to bail out of things got very hot and the rats would hit me easier, but thats what the covops cloak is for anyway.. Fleet stabber negates the speed issue.
