Use an ESS in null and get your LPs that way without being constrained to low sec.

This is a great way to encourage log out traps in your ratting system.

The fighters should warp with you.

They are certainly more viable than they used to be, I just still find the sentries to be less effort and concern. I've heard the ecm burst trick but not had the chance to try it, will give it a go.


Doesn't have to be ecm burst either, damps or regular ecm work but you have to target something. Im experimenting with a target painter but for some reason TPs don't prevent npc target switching as much as other ewar does for some reason.

Fighters now make lvl 5 work faster AND safer, and there is no reason to give up a high slow for a rep when you fighters are catching any aggro at all. Even if they do, 3300 (I fly a thanny) DPS is so much that the npcs don't live long enough to kill a single fighters lol.

My fighters go 5000 meters per second (thanks to drone nav comps) and track better than medium drones (thanks to omni links). I'm always aligned, If i have to warp my fighters warp with me and the beauty of low sec is that there is never any bubbles to contend with so i just warp off and in a non-station system I just pop out a depot and refit a cloak or jump to my emergency cyno toon I have sitting in a nearby station system.

Isn't it dangerous to try and use a depot to refit to cloak in a carrier? Carriers are pretty easy to probe, I'm pretty sure they can land on you before the depot sets up.

An experienced scanner will find you before you have a chance to refit off a depot.

And as for the EWAR issue, if it can be confirmed that a certain type of EWAR causes perma-aggro, I'll be very interested myself.

The answer to the question has a lot to do with the cost of PLEX and your amount of game time a month doing this activity.
