If you're planning on killing anything at the gate under gate gun fire they better be two battleships or you won't be killing anything bigger than an industrial.

Try a complete shield scorp for tanking, and a dominix for the kill.

Both tanked to hell.
Crow = dead crow Arazu = dead arazu
Avoid anything that can't take a forever beating by sentry tower :) (forever until cap booster lasts)

Damnation + Hyperion maybe ? An armor gang link or 2 , remote sensor boosters from the hype to make the Damnation tackle better.

Golem and Phobos? Onyx and Kronos? Onyx and Astarte? Phobos and Raven?
Or even Onyx and Phobos.

Myrm + Drake could camp a gate together. Passive shield tank both, and fit a shield transporter on each in case it dips a little too low.

I'd go with a scorp with nothing but sensor boosters and scramblers and a mega. Presuming you're talking about empire. |

I really have to ask about all these suggestions for droneships gatecamping? How would you make them viable?

...something cloaked (never camp without a scout) Hyperion with sensor booster and a big can full of 800's
Why the hyp? Because it has a very nice tank, and that extra middle is handy, meaning full tank and extra tackling gear.

This is the best advice I've seen in this thread.

Fit a remote rep and guns on the Myrm, and instead of using heavies (which you really can't anymore), stack mediums and/or lights and spam them. Use the remote rep to try to save drones that you see getting shot. Let the Drake aggress first, so that it will get shot by sentries first, then shoot your guns, then engage with drones. After the Drake's time being shot is up, everything else with agro gets cycled to randomly.
I've seen gatecamping Domis lots; actually saw a Domi snipe with sentry drones once. Drone boats are plenty viable for gatecamping if you're willing to put the effort in to using remote reps and keep your DPS alive

Ship A: Torp Raven 1. Large s95a Shield Transporter 2. Sensor Booster II 3. Target Painter II (or P.W.N.A.G.E) 4. Faction Torps (faction launchers for easy fit) 5. Shield Maintenance Bots (just in case)
Ship B: Rapier/Huginn 1. Damage Control II 2. {Anti-Kinetic,Anti-Thermal} Screen Reinforcer I 3. Sensor Booster II 4. Stasis Webifier II + 3xWarp Disruptor II 5. ECM Drones (just in case)
Ship C: Blockade Runner 1. Room for at least one GSC 2. MWD for fast loot scooping 3. Salvager incase of tech II wreck 4. Emergency multi-spec / ECM burst
Now, how to setup at a new gate
First use the blockade runner to make some bookmarks, you need two sets: 2000km off the gate, 200km off the gate, both sides, alignment is unimportant and the more bookmarks the better..
Setup blockade runner on one side, at the 200km bookmark spot. This is the scout, he reports which targets are coming. He could also have an emergency EW module (burst/multispec) or salvager to increase potential profits.
Now, on the other side, you have the Rapier cloaked 200km from the gate (so the grid is already loaded), ready to warp in if the scout reports something jumped. The raven waits at the 2000km bookmark aligned to the gate, with a name borrowed from someone in local (e.g. randomnoob1238's Raven)
How it works 1. Scout reports target 2. Everyone gets ready 3. Scout reports target jumped 4. Everyone warps to gate at 0 5. Raven locks Rapier ready to shield transfer it 6. Rapier activates sensor boosters.. 7. The rest is kinda obvious..
Congratulations Sir
Congratulations. You are now a successful low-sec pirate. Now, if you want to bring friends, (you should, for more targets) bring an extra Raven or two. Maybe an extra Rapier.
The shield transfer consumes a lot of CPU and capacitor, so tanking your Raven and the Rapier will be difficult, for this reason, be careful what you attack:
1 rapier 1 raven: anything that cannot tank 80% of your DPS 1 rapier 2 raven: battleship, some command ships 1 rapier 3 raven: **** anything ;) 1 rapier 1 raven 1 scimitar: anything, raven fits more EW 2 rapier 5 raven 1 scimitar: seriously, stop blobbing ===== |
