How to fix gatecamps
1) Make it so that scooping a gcced ship gccs the scooping ship. The orca on highsec gates is one of the reasons gatecamping is risk free. You see gatecamps nowadays with two, even three orcas to scoop all their ships on the off chance they fail to scout an incoming fleet, or if they get bridged onto.
2) Linking should be like assinging fighters - you cant do it from inside a pos. This is another mechanic that lets you influence the game while being immune to attack. Ships inside a pos should not be able to do anything that affects things outside the pos.
3) Make sebos stacking penalized and nerf t3 sebo subsystems. Maybe integrate the sensor sub and sebo sub into a single sub.
4) Increase the decloak locking timer. Cloaky proteus linked scorpions make it ridiculous even to bait the gatecampers and then attack, since you cant point while jammed. Reduce the lock range and scan res of falcons and rooks (and all recons tbh).
5) Make sentry guns cycle amongst space debris (corpses, abanadoned drones, cargo containers, anchored containers) when there are no gcced targets.
Not related to gatecamps, but just sentry guns: Make sentry guns NOT cycle against active drones, since its sort of stupid that drone ships are pretty much worthless if they gcc on a gate. |

The damage from the low sec gate sentries is too easy to tank these days, they may as well not be there.
The damage from sentries is irrelevant to the typical gatecamp since they arent on the gate unless someone is jumping through. |

This change will have no negative effect on any "professional" gatecamp. On the contrary, they will now be able to use interceptors to have a very good chance of decloaking and pointing your cloaky ship. |
