It always annoyings me when I jump into a system with 10 guys who immediately dock up or fly to a pos. I fly around and none of the bother to engage me.
I've decided that I want to screw around with them. I was thinking of flying around in a cloaky ship and carry around some warp disruptor bubbles to anchor at their sanctums/belts in a blockade runner alt.
I would place the bubbles on all their sanctums and belts and then sit in their system and sometimes go afk for a few days.
What is a good cloaky ship to kill ratting ships? |

Because they are running bots, so no matter what you fly the same thing will happen. Not sure if the bots can detect warp disruption bubbles, but it might be interesting to see if you can trap them. Set up the bubble and then log out for about 15 minutes, then warp strait to the trap.
If you want to gank peeps running plexes without running into bots then get into W space... Just like there is no I in Team there is no Fair in Eve... |

It doesn't take a bot to see a neut in system and dock up because we don't feel like getting jumped in our PVE ships. Support showing T2 and faction frequency crystal damage in the info window.

Set the bubbles up between all the bookmarks those bots use to jump around just make sure you dont do it the moment you hop into the system.

AFK camping is for people without imagination. Get something fast to scout/tackle (i did enjoy arty dram this one can even solo some targets, or stiletto if they fit heavy neuts) than bring your alt in a sensor dampening bomber with extra dps. |

I am thinking shield nano ishtar with drone damage mods and T2 sentries. Throw a cloak on there to sit AFK in system and see how it does. You should be able to kill tengues with it with little effort. Privateer Alliance, rebuilding a not so safe High Sec.-á

If you're fitting cloaks on your Vagas and Cynas, you're doing it wrong. |

Pilgrim works wonders for this. Covert cloak and enough neut/dps to upset pretty much any sub cap carebears day. Not sure if rats still drop cap charges or not but I used to roam around and when getting low on cap charges just check a few rat wrecks and you could stock back up again. |

I've been pretty impressed with how successful some people have been with the combination of stealth bombers and log-in traps. Sure, you'll probably your bomber to anybody with a somewhat competent pvp/pve hybrid fit, but the occasional loot pinata with no drones would make it all worth it.
Care to tell us what sort of ratters you're after? Gurista? Blood? |

not necessarily. shutting down a system requires physical force or residents that are afraid of their own shadow. [IMG]http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a208/DawnFrostbringer/OldST.jpg[/IMG] |

I've used a number of ships and tactics for greifing nullsec players over the years, one of my favorites is a cloaking Broadsword or shield Phobos - wait cloaked on a gate they travel frequently and pick off easy targets.
More recently I've been using an Ishtar with Improved Cloak. It was a shield fit nano Ishtar with a 30km point for holding battleships, but I've recently retired it in favor of an Arazu.
This is the fit I've been running - haven't gotten to test it too much yet though:
3x Heavy Neutron Blaster II, Covert Ops Cloak
Experimental 10mn MWD, Large Shield Extender II, Large Ancillary Shield Booster (150 charges or Navy 150s), Adaptive Invuln II, Stasis Web II, Warp Scambler II
Damage Control II, 3x Magnetic Field Stabilizer II
3x Hammerhead II, 2x Hobgoblin II
Does 527 DPS overheated, tanks 395 DPS with LASB heated, and has 23k EHP. Much better DPS and tank than a Pilgrim, and trust me, you want to kill your targets quickly.
It will die to strong bait, but so will 99% of solo ships out there. |

You've clearly never roamed nullsec, or aren't threatening.
Because Local chat updates instantly, everybody in system can get docked/cloaked/POSed before any ship can ever catch them. AFK cloaking is literally the only way to kill some nullsec residents.
The other (more fun) way is to fight their blobs, but that requires them to grow a pair and undock, which is rare. |
