That helps but you either need a dictor or a MWD BS to bump to death. _________________________________________

Firstly make sure you gang has fighters added to the overview. Be sure the "TAGS" column is active. Keep bumping and nossing the thing while you focus fire on the fighters and other drones.
There is no way to avoid losses at this stage, depending on your firepower and the amount of drones he has out, FC keep tagging em and the rest keep bagging em. Bs who get targetted are welcome to try to warp away and rep before returning as this does take the fighters away from the battle, but try to come back to the fight to get you corpies to pop em for you.
When the drones are finally down turn your attention to the Mothership. Hopefully you have enough firepower along to break his tank. Just remember to keep him well nossed to prevent him jumping out and keep on him. Note that the last time I was in on a carrier kill it was pre-patch, so with the new HP increase you will certainly be there a lot longer. If all else fails jump in a dread to pop him for you.

Edited by: Lord WarATron on 04/12/2006 10:03:59 Lets be perfectly honest - People who fly motherships are not idiots. They will expect nos ships and bump tactics. And people who can afford motherships can also afford a couple of 10km officer smartbombs to instablast any cruisers and below trying to bump as well as blow up dictor bubbles (though not a issue in 0.4). For things bigger than cruisers, the fighters can instapop.
To take down a mothership in a 0.4 you either have to hope that the pilot is a idiot, or have a fleet of supertanked suicide battleships to constantly bump the mothership while you bring in a few dreads to take it down while praying he wont hit crtl-q. Of course, you can also hope for lag....
And I know which system you are talking about. That mothership pilot knows his stuff. He has fought thousands of people and has taken on fleets by himself. You are not going to take him down unless you have the leadership skills to bring in a large fleet of ships ready to die.
Also, if someone had a brainy idea of dropping dictor bubbles out of Mothership smartbomb range, you know what I would do if the mothership was going down? Bring in my own dictor to drop another bubble to cancel it out!
All you can do in a 0.4 is just kill off his fighters until it becomes uneconimical to stay. --- Slot 10 Akemons Modified 'Noble'Zet 5000 implant +8% Armour FREE |

they are legal as long as you are agressing said player, if you are doing it to a freighter om highsec thats not a war target, then its illegal. but since everyone in low sec is a target its fine.

Personally, I'm shocked at the suggestion we'd use our Mothership to pirate. Where do you people get such ideas?

LOL!!!
To the OP - How do you kill it? You don't. If it's the EST Nyx, then here is my advice: leave. They own your system now until they decide to move on. EST has been playing with their toy for longer than almost anyone else in the game.

100% Agreed. The only thing you can do is either leave and hope they get bored and move on, or use Suicide supertanked smartbomb ships to blow up as many fighters as you can to make it uneconomical for them to stay. Of course, Ignoramus is not an idiot, you could say he is eve's top Mothership pilot, so I doubt the second option would work much :) --- Slot 10 Akemons Modified 'Noble'Zet 5000 implant +8% Armour FREE |

Heh, a quick look at your killboard confirms this attitude. Good call. The CRTL-Q comment was not aimed at your corp, it was made as a generalisation on things to take into account upon taking on a mothership. --- Slot 10 Akemons Modified 'Noble'Zet 5000 implant +8% Armour FREE |

You know some of us have been saying to Rawthorm he should make the Mothership have its own category on our killboard. I mean its number 1 on all our stats now (she's almost reached 1,000 kills) and this quite plainly isn't fair to the rest of us mere EST mortals
Therefore, I vote for a new category of "Top Nyx Victims"
