You're a bit too late to get on the killmail.

You guys want to make fun of me some more? The players were 15 days old


Yep this goes back to many post and many arguments on ganking. Should ganking be possible? I say yes. Should it yield a profit like this? I say no.

I had several friends loose their tengus in this manner. Do you think having your mods on would have changed the outcome?

Saying the gankers spent 160mill for a 2.5B haul isn't accurate is it? The ship itself is worth 2.5-3B with all its goodies but surely you don't get every single piece of equipment it had on it in the wreck do you? I thought it was just random chances to get pieces of whatever you killed. I've been gone for years so I'm curious on this.

Umm.... In this case every single low slot and med slot dropped which included Caldari BC systems and every med slot was a dead space mod.


Well I'm sure that was nice but then I'm right that not every piece of gear drops off you for the gankers? Could they have gotten unlucky and only gotten one piece in the wreck?(granted one of your mods could probably still be worth more than 160mill heh)

Right it is completely possible all mods could have been destroyed. Which sucks because none of them did

Bottom line, if i was moving at least half of my max speed i could tank just about anything but i was going maybe 100 because i was trying to warp

By the way, since we're already talking, do you want to buy a rifter? I've got the cheapest rifters in Metropolis. If you can find a cheaper rifter, buy it!

Alright i already know how much hate mail im going to get for running missions in a L4 tengu, but im not the only one who does it. Anyway i had a question on some HIGHSEC gate camps. T3 ships are pretty damn fast and i thought usually they get away. I jumped through a gate and on the other side were 3 typhoon battlecruisers orbiting. Felt a little funny so i tried to warp to something pointed in my direction. Insta-Lock 1400MM Howitzers blasted me apart before i even clicked on my resistors and shield boosters. So my mail question here is, can these things be avoided with all highsec care bear jokes aside. Ps the loss of their ships = 160 million loss of mine was 2.7 B and all my shiny stuff dropped so they got away with it.


I don't believe that the loot fairy, may she remain fickle forever, would allow for filthy gate campers to have all your shiny stuff. Link your killmail.

ISK tanking will never work the way you want it to, as silly people tend to do silly things with ships.

Taken to the silly conclusion, loading a shuttle with 200 PLEX should make it immortal then.

Perhaps what you are proposing is this...CCP make it so you cannot load a ship out with more bling than it would take to gank it. Say, I can kill a Tengu with a 200mil ISK ship, then the Tengu won't be permitted to put more than 200mil worth of modules on the ship, minus hull costs of course.


Ohh, the tears would be legendary then.....

It's simply a matter of math. If the cost of the gank ships is less than half the value of the modules on the ship and the contents of the cargo, it's worth ganking. It only becomes profitable because the player makes it so.

The Tengu was made to give gankers a shiny expensive toy to go after, but if you must fly one for some reason don't fly near mission hubs or in caldari space. Find a nice out of the way system and zip around to your hearts content. Also don't fly anything you can't afford to lose. I had a Tengu for a week and sold it, but I am Miss Paranoia so I fly tanked sturdier ships that will result in a loss to the gankers if they want to gank me and I avoid officer or faction items if a t2 will do the job.

You, unlike me, would fly a T2 Tengu for a less expensive loss rather than being poor.P

My Tengu was pimped out with officer stuff and I thought 'what am I stupid or something', so I went back to a Nighthawk with mostly T2 with an omni tanked 55k EFH, does the job of the tengu, albeit a bit slower, but it would take alot to gank it and if it does get ganked, meh, can buy plenty more for the cost.

Having T2 mods instead of faction & deadspace mods which are only a few percent better than T2 would've prevented him being picked as a target in the first place.
