Ok...Ill set the scene..... Just set up a deal to go buy a brand new MOA for 5.5 mill. The only catch was that i had to go 37 jumps to get it and the last 9 were in 0.0 space. I must admit i was slightly paranoid of this and took the precautions of upgrading my clone and using a shuttle, ok i set off and head there. ive went only 5 jumps and im at 0.3 system(name escapes me but caldari area at the north) And i turn up at a gate. Ok what the f**k is that. My shuttle was jammed from warping and i watch as some gimps launch some drones but they didnt get near as my ship was already destroyed. (somehow i managed to get my pod away). and i flew for the nearest station. At this point i forgot 2 turn off autopilot while i looked for these people to ask y they nuked me. To my horror my pod had warped straight back to the gate but at such an angle they never seen me and i got past. After finding these people i asked why they picked on a shuttle. There response was "we thought a bunch of ships were coming for us" FFS...are u blind. a shuttle is the smallest ship in the game and is a bit different to a Cruiser. And that doesnt explain why they tried to pod me.(they definitly fired on it)
To cut a long story short i was attacked for no reason, no cargo to loot, no threat. I aint against PKing and i aint moaning but to nail the most harmless ship in the game is sad.
Parties involved were Smarttass and Billy bob.
(The irony is that im sure these guys were part of the corp that i got my MOA from)

They will just attack anything in sight, as the fact is that sometimes ****ty ships are carrying good stuff, thinking that you wont shoot em down.

When camping a gate its important to set a few rules, I tend to stop indies / cruisers as they are something you might get cash out of, but frigates / shuttles are a waste of time stoping, so just nuke it...who knows, sometimes people carry nice stuff in shuttles

Agreed. Figates and shuttles dont pay. So you blast em and hope they were using that ship to pick something up.

Anyone else think it's funny a guy named "Devil Mann" is complaining about being killed in a shuttle?
Wasn't me! |

Moral of the story: Don't buy from corps in 0.0 space.
Sounds like they set up the Moa deal to lure people into their blockade. The corp in question probably isn't producing Moas at all.

Too true.
A frig travelling in non-empire space has a high chance of carrying something valuable. But, I have rarely seen either in insecure space actually, its almost always cruisers or BS.
New players will usually not take a frig or shuttle to 0.0 space, and if they do, getting destroyed is a good lesson about the risks of insecure space.

That's too bad just remember any time you are flying in a low level zones your an easy target for pirates. You should use your map and see if they where any destroyed ships in the areas your entering, this will give you an idea in proceeding or turning back and looking elsewhere for a MOA.

Devil Mann, I can understand your frustration. I can also understand why your shuttle got shot down:
If you were in a large attacking force, would you want someone to scout in a battleship, and risk losing it, or would you rather them risk losing a shuttle? Many many spies fly in free ships/shuttles.
Additionally, shuttles might have **** for cargo space, but I've gotten at least 5 of the skills that I currently have trained from shuttles, and quite a few BP's as well.
The best way to avoid this is to keep an eye on Local.

that why I ship my valuables in a cruiser riged for speed and armor
wont win fight..but can break blockades of 2 ships or less
------------------------------------------------
Tell my tale to those who ask.
Tell it truly - the ill deeds, along with the good - and let me be judged accordingly.
If this world was supposed to be friendly
CCP wouldnt have wasted time paying the devs to code so many weapons |
