The freighter in question that got anked in the video isnt a jf therefore dosent apply to me . however if u were so fortunate not to have a cyno available (fail jf pilot) then the same would apply to him

Honestly it is a very stupid mechanic. To let a bunch of ships that total less then 30M kill a freighter. There needs to be a way to fight back on the freighters side, so if your AFK your dead but if your active and there you can so something with at least a chance of saving your ship. (a chance, doesn't have to be 100%, but at least 50% would be nice)

Dear OP, stop working for TEST, or any of their affiliated high-sec friends, problem solved.

Another thing, you do know ALL null alliances have high sec hauler corp friends or even hauler alt corps, to do their hauling.
Why don't you just figure out who they are, where they go and where they come from and return the favor maybe? just a suggestion.

Perhaps a little to much effort though.

That's definitely a desire . NADO fleet some goon alt JF's empty ones of course . i just don't have a spai in goons . So i don't know who or where to catch em. And i wouldn't sit on a gate all day waiting for one to come through. I suppose the only remedy to that would be to BLAP every one you see and hope that that one belonged to a GOON

While I don't condone ganks, I believe everyone should be able to defend them selves. Even a freighter. Easiest solution is giving freighters the option to haul faster and have less Ehp, or Haul slower and have more Ehp.

Give me all your stuff. Don't let the door hit you on the way out.

PS: this could have been avoided if you'd used a scout and made instawarp bookmarks.

There are no such things as insta warps in a freighter/capitals but when undocking if you jump through a stargate and your 12-15km away from the gate and you been picked you're just fu***d end of story. Thats not the problem though. The problem is the game new mechanics allows gankers to gank 1 billion capitals carrying anything from nothing to 50 billion in 5 seconds with 30 t2 fit t1 destroyers after concord and gate guns are out of the equation due to it being bumped off the grid of the stargate

Yes there is. They behave no differently than any other ship and can use an insta bookmark same as everything else.

…unless you use insta-warping webbing ships, in which case you get into warp in, oh, 2s flat.

None of that is true. They can't do it in 5 seconds, especially not with something as puny as 30 destroyers; neither CONCORD nor gate guns are out of the question (in fact, their presence is exactly what they have to compensate for); and none of it is actually a problem since there are plenty of counters to it.

I fixed this for you.

This is what this all boils down to. 30 guys killed one guy, and you think it's unfair because he flew an expensive ship and they didn't. That's all this is.

You are so wrong it's hard to describe it adequately in English.

"Verily, I have often laughed at the weaklings who thought themselves good because they had no claws."

One of ours, ten of theirs.

Best Meltdown Ever.

dont worry, CCP has thought of that and created the Iteron/baders and the freighter/JF classes...

…not to mention that, since I suspect that Kult is talking about giving it a lowslot, doing so would mean quite a significant nerf to freighters, and I don't thing anyone is really after that. Well, the gankers might approve, but that's about it.
