Memoirs of a Suicide Ganker

[Jayce]

How does a damage control help vs suicide ganking?

It deactivates every time you jump a gate right?

You can reactivate it while still cloaked, or right as you uncloak..

[Llyse]

Nah that makes sense, I was just wondering how it'd help if you were completely afk.

That Uburoy guy must be doing other stuff in the background and hits the red button if targeted

[Slayerik]

Your best bet if AFK is passive shield hardeners/extenders and rigs. I've seen some with armor tanks/small plates as well.

Another noob bites the dust.

He was afk for like 3 jumps before i tracked em down and popped him.

GG Iron guy.

Very nice drop as well.  Nicely done.

That's my boy!  Good to see the sec is going to a good use.

Sadly, though, the janitor on board the victim ship died.

Yeah, no better feeling than seeing "Faction Stuff" GSC floating outside the wreck!

Not as bad, but completely empty wrecks are /wrist

[Thrawn]

So my last bunch of ganks were very meh with the good stuff mostly popping.  So I have one last kill before I'm below -2 sec status and I find ...

Someone afk in an Iteron IV with nothing but three expanded cargohold II and nearly 1 billion isk worth of implants in the hold. 

[Phred]

Ignore me. Missed the damn count columns.

[Thrawn]

Where can you sell 3 +4 and 2 +3 for a billion?

Um...no where?  Is that a trick question or am I confused? 

[Slayerik]

Where can you sell 3 +4 and 2 +3 for a billion?

Do you not count the like one hundred +3s?

[IainC]

Sent to me by a friend - No l3wt for j00!

[Pax]

Looks like you busted a mission farmer - nice one, Thrawn!

[Slayerik]

It happened.

The real motherload came through. Of course, due to the stupid fuckin changes that make you have to click yes to do stupid fucking aggression I missed this motherfucker. His 2 inertia stabs saved him roughly 15 billion isk.

Wtf.

Wtf.

Wtf.

Ah.......well, thats 18 billion in a couple days that hasnt worked out for me. Maybe I should retire?

[Slayerik]

Ok, I think that last post really didn't do justice to the fact that I just missed a 15 billion isk gank.

15 billion.

Isk

Gank.

[Endie]

Gank.

Ouch.  You could have bought a mothership and officer-fitted it for that.

Of course, why you'd want to is another matter...

I wonder if he knows how lucky he was?  Or, indeed, if someone else got him, shortly afterwards.  What was he flying?

[Amarr HM]

Jeez man that's like being hit in the face with a wet fish.

Sigil with two I-stabs and a warp core stab I think..

I doubt anyone got em.

This probably belongs in the "I'm a retard" thread, but since it was suicide-gank related, here goes.

So I'm scanning down haulers, trying to find that big score for the night after hours of nothing last night, and this baby pops up.



Now at first glance, that is a SWEET ass fucking gank, a mammoth with a billion in shit, and all in cans so I'm going to get at least 400mil out of this.  Hell fucking yeah.

He jumps in, I light his ass up, and start wondering "what the fuck, he only had an lse and invulns, I should be raping his face, why the fuck aren't his shields going down?"

9 seconds later, CONCORD.  Cue bitching in f13.

15 minutes later, Nerf goes "Mastodon? It was a fucking Mam...oh...god damnit...fuck you CCP, fuck you cenozoic era."

*cry*

[Slayerik]

Did the exact same thing on a Mastodon long ago.

Your first clue should be the LSE - no regular transports can fit one unless they try really fuckin hard :)

[Amarr HM]

Actually yeh I was thinking that I have only ever seen mammoths with loadsa MSE.

[MahrinSkel]

I always loved it when people tried to gank my alt's Mastodon.  I'd routinely fly with 2-3B in T2 (if headed for Querious or between the top markets) or a like value of high-end named rat loot and minerals (if flying to Jita from Q), autopiloting the default route to Jita.  Except that I was seriously passive shield tanked, and could survive 3-4 BS broadsides before you'd reach my hull (Mastodon has the same native shield resists as a Vagabond, and I had nearly every slot dedicated to boosting either my passive resists or my raw shield HP).  Every time I glanced over at the computer and saw my shields had red on them, I would laugh like a fiend (happened at least every other week).  One time they must have been waiting for me in a pack, because I looked over and half my armor was gone.

I killed more battleships with that Mastodon then I ever even targetted in PvP, and I never lost a cargo.  Everybody goes for Gallente or Caldari industrials because the T1 models are so good, and don't even recognize the Minmatar models when they see them.  In 0.0 Minmatar Transports and the Fenrir freighter blow everything else away.  I used to fly my Fenrir around Querious with only my other account to scout (ran the Jumpbridges to break the siege of 49-U that way)  In mass freighter ops, my Fenrir was usually reaching warp unassisted before the Obelisks and Providences could even get up enough steam to be webbed into it (I'd tell the escorts not to waste their time).  I'd have guys trying to bump it in low-sec to keep me stuck until they could bring reinforcements that could tank the gate guns, and still manage to reach warp.  And I already mentioned the insane sub two second Prowler.

[Amarr HM]

Yeh I love the minmatar industrials, really are the dark horse of haulers the speed and resist bonuses along with the reasonable amount of lows and cargo space make them great all round ships. Prowler is actually one of my favourite ships in the game. I was helping scoop up loot after a battleship slugfest in Kheram, the enemy returned and caught me slightly off the gate with a rapier and a stealth bomber I tanked them til support arrived and even managed to make the gate dual webbed was pretty impressed with the ship after that.

[Thrawn]

Low sec ganking!

[Slayerik]

And it all dropped.

Imagine how fast they were scrambling for a freighter or some haulers!

[Phildo]

Not exactly a suicide gank or my own work, but I felt this one was worth sharing.

Ouch
