all you need is 3 xL shield boosters and the power to maintain em on.

Daes, don't you think we would notice 15 battleships sitting at 120km distance? :)

Let's say you're trying to run a blockade, right? What's the first thing you should keep in mind? "If you get involved in a fight, the gates won't let you jump and the stations won't let you dock."
So why the hell would you return fire? |

I honestly can't think of a single good reason.
But some people try it anyway :/

So they can get the "I shot at a Pirate and all I got was a pod juice covered t-shirt" t-shirt.
If you're gonna run, run. If you're gonna fight, fight. If you're gonna try to do both, pay your insurance premium.

Be careful out there. That other guy waiting in the queue for the gate MIGHT be a baby-munching frock-burner, YOU JUST DON'T KNOW!- Lallante |

Oh yeah, and I guess CCP's AI has A LOT to learn from EQ, where healing the tank draws so much hate from the NPC's that they switch to you and stay there, despite the tank's best efforts to taunt them back onto himself. |

Actually, Shadowthrone did benefit by shooting us yesterday. We spent too long negotiating and he took someone out before getting away. It doesn't happen too often, but he managed to break away, I have to give him his props.

Seems like nothing more than excellent strategy and planning to me...

Although it's totally uncompareable in the first place, warrior taunting is borked as hell :P

so has anyone come up with a way to fight back at these blockades yet? I was destroyed by a sentry gun when I fought back. Any solution for this? If not, I'm still considering it an exploit.

right now, the shield transfer isnt an exploit, Yet... but i do not think CCP meant for players to be able to keep up something as long as they wish and have the sentries be completely useless...
with that said, if the ppl use the tactic of warping out and letting the sentries fire on you, i call that an exploit, but CCP will not because they cant go and stop every person that warps out after having attacked someone and leaving that person to get blown up by the sentry guns...
Until CCP changes the AI, so that like either more sentry guns spawn or the sentry guns after some time start to pick on other ships, or say form of a SWAT comes in after the sentry guns have failed to destroy anyone and havenĘt stopped firing...
All i can say is nothing can be done and CCP will not say that this is an exploit... and with that any people can USE this at the time, UNTIL CCP says no...
in my own view both are exploits, to a point... because both use the games mechanics to get an advantage, but that is my own opinion, and the only thing the people who are using can say in there defense is that CCP didnt call it an exploit yet so we can use it.

ok, I feel better.
Drutort, never attack someone who hasn't attacked you. Don't try to rescue the sentry gun. Feel free to attack anyone who does attack you. Feel free to attack anyone with -5 security. Feel free to make a run for the gate. Feel free to go around the blockade.
If you see a bright green dot on your "pods killed" map don't go to that system. If you're foolish enough to go there and see 10 pirates on local don't just jump to any random gate. Pirates are supposed to be able to blockade in this game. You can either pay the toll or get a large enough force to make the pirates go away. With the specialized loadouts they will be using it should be pretty easy, given a large enough force, to run the pirates off.
Always remember: 1.0-0.5 = safe, 0.4-0.0 = not safe.
Now can we stop beating this poor dead horse? It's starting to look like soup.
