Is it possible on a trial account? With the new training bonuses perhaps within the 21 days or 14 days whatever the trials are now someone could be a full on Hulk ganker.

Nope. I'd say it would take a tempeest with an artillery volley atleast to take down a hulk in one shot or something else capable of dealing 10,000 damage within 3 -> 8 seconds. Depends on skills and fitting of the hulk pilot. It's not profitable to suicide hulks and I believe you will get banned if you find a way to cycle alts to avoid security status penalties and such.

It's not cycling "alts" if its another account. AFAIK the recycling only refers to making another character on your account getting a low sec status then deleting it to make another and repeating over and over.
I imagine if its a different account entirely then the recycling can't apply, and well if it does CCP have just slapped a big "Don't bother with that 2nd or 3rd account" sign on it.
i.e if I make a trial account... 18-20 days later suicide a few haulers and decide meh... this account isn't for me. I then make a new trial account and repeat? It's not recycling because I won't be deleting them.

Edited by: Diesel47 on 16/12/2010 14:58:42 Arty Ruptures T1 fit and insured can take hulks out.
A couple of those should do the trick. Add on the cheap damage rigs too.
Much cheaper than a ... battleship.

You talking solo or with a gang?
Solo - cant help u there never tried it.
Gang - 5-6 catalysts, you could be in a gankable one within a few days from a brand new char, just fit a load of blastrs an damage mods (rigs not needed) anything over 5 pilots fitted the same should do the trick!
an yea be prepared for a id10ts saying stuff about getting bans etc. Dont comment if u are using a trial or not, personally as said before i dont see whats wrong with del the char after it.
I mean is it that much different to being a pirate for a while, ur sec gets to -9.9 an u think....this pirates life aint for me, i cba ratting it up so ill just recycle and start again.....is that really much different?

Depending on the hulk's fit, a couple of Thrashers can probably do it. A lot of hi-sec tanks are very minimally tanked or even completely untanked.

I was thinking hi sec ganks on a alt when sec status gets too low tag him along on a few missions and away we go again.plus this would be solo suicides but could be upto 3 people so even cruiser to battle cruiser would be nice

Because it still takes no skill. Go fight something that will fight back.

lol. nonsense. the abundance of faction boost fitted hulks/macks more than makes up for any shortfall in the insurance payout of your gank ship. profit and tears, you can have your cake and eat it too!

AFAIK this counts as recycling alts to avoid the negative effects of poor sec status. You'd probably need to ask one of the Senior GMs for a definite answer but I seem to remember mention of trail accounts counting a while back. Certainly it would be against the spirit if not the letter, the intention of the rule is to stop people rampaging around Hi-sec and building up negative sec status and then clearing it entirely without any work (by creating a new alt) after all.

Edited by: Fist1 on 17/12/2010 21:46:55 Edited by: Fist1 on 17/12/2010 21:46:07 Confirming that 3 low skilled gank trashers can pop just about any hulk. If in doubt bring a 4th. They do about the same dps as a gank caracal and is a LOT cheaper that a single smart bombing battleship.

You're missing the point. OP is not interested in combat based on skill. He's fishing for his own lolz.

Ironically, it is harder to kill a Hulk in highsec than it is in lowsec.
