SO I'm thinking that after this patch Gallente Recons may be pretty handy ships at gate camps. They can scramble from far away, not to mention being able to turn off MWD from far away. The only problem is that they probably can't tank gate guns very well. So If I had a cruiser remote rep me, would they also be flagged as a global criminal and get fired upon by the gate guns?

If you are either flagged or an outlaw, then yes.

would it be possible to create a cruiser(I think the exquerer or something gets bono for remote repping) that can tank sentry guns then? or is that not feasible
Edit: nevermind, I just checked out ship setups and it looks like its pretty much a failboat

It's unlikely that you'll be able to build a sufficient tank on any remote-rep bonused cruiser that can tank sentry guns. Maybe it's possible with outlandishly expensive modules or something but I really can't think of a practical way to do it. The more tankable cruisers (Thorax, Rupture, Maller, Moa) can survive gate gun fire for a time, but ultimately you really need to upgrade to a Battlecruiser or HAC to tank guns for longer durations. And of course BCs and HACs don't get rep bonuses.

Actually, the logistics ships (cruisers) can tank sentries like they don't exist. And that's using T2 or best named across the board.

Oh yeah it wouldn't surprise me if Logistics cruisers could tank sentries. I was thinking the OP was referring to tech 1 stuff like the Scythe, Exequror, etc.

2 guardians, rep each other and everyone else in the camp. problem solved ;)
or move to 0.0 and camp there, much easier, none of these silly gate guns. less autopiloting freighters though :(

setup two and get them to cap transfer and rep each other, same as guardians. can tank like 1.5k DPS and still fit a MWD and ECCM iirc

If T1 cruisers for cheapness, just make sure they're repping from out of sentry range. If using T2, just use T2 mods (if you don't use T2 mods on a T2 ship you fail.) and tank them. With agro alternating between the 2 ships you should have no problem tanking them. If in gang... No need to worry about sentry guns, more than enough RR/Sniper BS. |

2 BS's can effectively remote rep a very low SP Maller; so with decent skills, they should be able to remote rep any other cruiser if the pilot has decent / excellent armor tanking skills + local rep fitted.
Edit:
Also, 1 BS (geddon) + 1 Guardian can perma RR each other under sentry fire.
