Memoirs of a Suicide Ganker

[Grand Design]

 

[Slayerik]

Hi there! Remember me? no? well... at least I do remember you anyway, especially attacking my ship with that friend of yours stealing my precious cargo.You took everything I had including my ship so I decided to reward your efforts my way, the voodoo way but since I am still a newbie in that art, I only cursed you.

Think I am bluffing because voodoo requires at least hair or blood? You're right but that's the oldkool and indirect voodoo. Since I caught your will on the right moment and a word you use to describe yourself, it will suffice.
I've written the will and the name I caught from you to my precious book so don't even try to escape. Cursing will shorten my liffe a little but I feel better this way.

This my will, my gift, a present you can't even decline. Please continue to plunder so my curse will grow be even stronger. Hoping You'll enjoy it.

[Murgos]

Right-O, chap!  That's telling the ol' scallywag!  I'm sure pustules are even now suppurating upon the heathens hindquarters.

[Jayce]

At least he didn't threaten to feature you in his next vampire fanfic.    That's reserved for the REAL scallywags.

[Phildo]

Maybe we can get him to curse all of us a little bit and shorten his life to last week.

Anyone on the market for some 50-60 ME, PL 30 BPOS?



With the 1.0 - 1.5 bil in salvage, this was quite the gank.

I'll send you a PM when I get home and get a chance to look through what I don't have in that SS.

[Slayerik]

And don't you try to rip me off on the Caldari Shuttle prices, I know what they are worth!

[Sparky]

Hi there! Remember me? no? well...

Petition him for RL threats.  The ironing would be delicious.

[Slayerik]

Yeah, guess I have the curse of too much isk :P

Better contract all those BPO's over for free then so I'm not adding to your problem.

[Nerf]

I am the unluckiest guy I know.

I also got an AFK Viator down to 1/2 armor before the new and improved CONCORD raped my face, he had 3x MSE's and 3x plates but I had to try ^_^

[Slayerik]

Ouch.

[Thrawn]

Ah, almost three months since a post here!  Do we really have no one doing this?

I'm thinking of burning up Daala's sec status again but I haven't heard much about ganking since the patch so I'm really not sure what to shoot for for new dps/volley for ganking.  Doubt the named railgun Brutix will cut it anymore unless it's someone completely untanked.

One of the reasons that Nerf Blasters gunnery skills are what they are right now is so that I could use t2 guns instead of named post-patch, but I hit an incredibly fucking unlucky streak (see 2 or 3 posts above) and just gave up.  The best way to be sure now is to run a domi with large guns, sentry drones, and a painter.  In .5 you've got about 9 seconds until you're scrammed, jammed, and waiting to die.

[Thrawn]

I can use T2 Large Hybrids, only need Sentry Drone Interfacing book for sentry drones and can fly Caldari and Gallente BS.  Time to play around with EFT tonight, I did a bit when I was home for lunch and it's looking like you needa BS to be sure.  Just need to make sure I can get my lock time down a reasonable amount as well as having multiple warp disruptors.  Hoping to do some good ganking unless someone wants to give me a very large no-intrest, pay you back when I can loan.

Why would you need a painter for guns?  Lock time?

[Soln]

this makes me want to consider resubbing...

So, honest question -- can one get by on piracy and lunatic fringe stuff like this?  I always wanted to be a real smuggler, but that stealth gear seemed half baked and not really real. 

Can one solo a bit in Eve now?

I'm assuming to increase sig radius so you hit harder and more often.  When you only have a few seconds to do damage it really hurts when a gun misses.

[Slayerik]

Since I quit has the forum nerf rage died down? lol

I was a fuckin machine :)

Wrong thread and I don't know how it relates to suicide ganking, but the answer is yes.

Piracy: lots of people pirate in lowsec especially.  Above 0.5 it's reclassed as suicide ganking because CONCORD always comes to get you, but below 0.4 you can prey on whatever noob or hauler happens by, scan down mission runners, etc.

Smuggling - the closest thing to this is to train into blockade runners (which can warp cloaked now) and run supplies out to friendly 0.0 alliances, NPC 0.0 space like Venal, Stain, Syndicate (et al), or lowsec stations.

I am building up a nest egg to cushion any initial losses, and then I am going to give this a whirl.

[Goumindong]

The painter is to make sure that your sentry drones hit AND guns hit. A web will not have an instantaneous effect like a painter will, and you need all the help you can get to make sure you're doing the proper damage.

You have to lock a target to use a painter, so it cannot ever work for lock time. Especially not when suicide ganking since its a hostile action.

Set up a cruiser to give this a try on a small scale a few jumps from Jita (too many people at the gates in Jita proper). I am hoping to get a couple of volleys off before I get Concorded by trying in lower high sec space. So far it has been slim pickings (tried a total of about 3 hours the past 2 nights). Lots of WtZ folks, and lots of freighters which would take me an hour to kill. Any advice?

[Phildo]

You really shouldn't be able to gank a hauler in a cruiser anymore, try looking for shuttles or frigates with expensive cargo instead.

I had to use a battlecruiser in .5 sec BEFORE the patch.  You also need a LOT of patience for it, you will go days with no good targets if you're unlucky.  It's all about being setup in the right place when that big score comes in.

You have an alt ready to scoop up the loot as well correct?

[Jayce]

Also, the lower sec, the better for experimenting.  Higher sec has quicker CONCORD and bigger sec status loss.

[WayAbvPar]

I have been looking for frigs and shuttles mostly, or totally untanked haulers. Been sitting in .6 space, so I may get more than 1 volley off, and have a buddy sitting nearby to scoop. We are looking for small expensive stuff. I guess I could set up a BC and use my cruiser for belt ganking, but I don't want to blow my sec status on something that isn't profitable.

[Nerf]

You won't take out an untanked hauler in a cruiser.  I lost a Brutix to concord trying to take out a badger ii with a shitty shit setup, like 1 t1 invuln, with t2 guns and sentry drones before I said fuck it and headed to 0.0. In .5.

Now, I got extremely unlucky on that one, but ganking in anything but a BS just puts too much to chance with the new changes.

Could be a fake, but I know how stupid people can be.

[Endie]

That's well over 2000 dollars at timecard prices, if I'm right?  That's at 34.99 for 690 million.

Edit: holy crap no that's only the ones that dropped.  I guess it must be closer to 4 large.
