kredis asdf,

Sometimes entering or traveling through Low Security Systems (0.4 to 0.1) and Null Security Systems (0.0) is unavoidable. Always check the Star Map statistics (Active ships, Ship kills, Pod kills, etc) before traveling into those systems. Try to plot alternate routes that bypass active systems. The use of a Cloaking module and the information contained in these links will also help improve your safety.

Lol. Future GM right here. Canned answer that doesn't actually answer the question, but seems to provide useful info links.
As people have said, it is possible to tank the lowsec gate guns, or now, wipe them. All they have to do is sit on or near the gate in some like a phobos with remote sensor boosters, proteus works great too, they kill you, then warp ~1000km from the gate, offgrid, and back, guns are reset.

Obviously if you had actually bothered to read those links, then you'd know your comment is completely absurd. I'm not gonna hold hands or sing 'Kumbaya'. He asked questions and I posted info that not only provides answers, it also instructs and informs the player on how to safeguard themselves.The answer to all his questions is contained within those links. All that's required on his part is a little bit of reading.


There's an old joke about a pilot in a helicopter.

Joke wrote:

It's fairly foggy and he's trying to reach a landing site; but he can't see for shoot. There are however buildings looming fairly close and he manages to attract the attention of one of the employees in the building. With a bit of gesticulation and arm waving he manages to ask:

"Where am I?"

The employee nods, scribbles on a piece of paper and holds up a sign that says: "In a helicopter".

The pilot gives him a thumbs up, lifts the bird and heads to the south east, straight to the airport. The passenger is amazed and says:

"How did you know that from what he said?"

The pilot grins and says: "He gave me an answer that, while correct, was absolutely useless. Meant that was the Microsoft building and the airport is south east from there".


You could have answered his question with a one or two line response; given him support. Instead you bombarded him with useful information that didn't really get down to the actual question. Microsoft employee? :)

OP should know that since Retribution, warping off-grid with the guns is enough to make them lose aggro. Even when you re-agress the target, the gates' sentry guns will not respond. Hence, a single bookmark just off-grid (> 250Km) can enable a pirate to quickly lose sentry aggro and warp back on the gate. Because sentry guns cycle through their targets, a large enough group can keep a presence at a gate while members with suspect flags shed sentry aggro.

i was flying a navy comet. i was on a gate in low sec and i got popped. my question is how can they get the kill and then still stay on the gate. my friend came through the same gate and was untuched. how did they not get agroed by the turrets. also im fairly new to to game (2 months) so go easy on me. thanks guys.


Do to how argo from gate guns work now after they fire and warp off grid and warp back gate guns will not start fireing a 2nd time.

iam sure the guns fired on them but they warped off and came right now. Know how its works and yes they can live.

It can sell for much higher prices. Insane indeed. Lol


We secretly replaced their Folgers Crystals with Weasel ****, let see if anybody notices.

tbh anything is better than Folger's.

Wow, that's just...nasty just isn't enough of a word.

Apparently its some of the best tasting coffee ever. Me and a buddy of mine at work were going to go in on some of that, but when we found out that a single cup was some $15 US it kind of lost its appeal. Also, poop.


Had a cup from a blend that included 20% of that stuff a couple of weeks ago - pure smooth awesomeness, truly the best coffee I've ever had.

Seriously, go for it If you get the chance.

Don't waste your time with this guy. He claims his coffee is good, but he does not use proper quality control, or add flavours. When I create my own specialty poop-coffee, I make sure not only to eat a fully organic and healthy diet, but I select special foods with flavour profiles that will match, and accentuate the natural flavours of the coffee beans as they pass through my body and spray out into thick frothee chunks in bags ready to be delivered for your convenience.
