therefore, i want to get in on it. how do i solo suicide gank a hauler?

Fit a catalyst with railguns, go to Jita 4-4, target the station and shoot


Voila


You've now (attempted to) suicide gank the richest hauler in all of New Eden

Or just fit a Catalyst with neutron blasters, find an AFK Venture, and let forth the booms.

Work your way up from there.

Everything in EVE is a trap.

And if it isn't, it's your job to make it a trap...:)

And don't forget it is easy to make billions of ISK per hour while suicide ganking!

Catalysts do not hold up well under gate guns, so fit a cruiser with lots of DPS and a semblance of tank (Moa, Vexor).

You will need an alt to scoop the loot, so the alt may as well be used to cargo and ship scan autopiloting ships. If your scout detects a ship with good loot and bad tank warp in the ganker and join the elite club of "High Sec Content Providers"(tm)

Personally I recommend a RLM Orthrus, ideally faction fit for ganking.
Just sit on the Jita undock and blap the first T1 hauler you see, you'll almost always recoup your losses that way.
Quick easy ISK.

Come hell or high water, this sick world will know I was here.

If you want to go for t2 haulers you'll probably need an officer fit.

But if you want to save some money I'm willing to give up part of my sec status to help you if you provide me a proper faction-fit ganking orthrus - and you can even keep most of the loot to cover the expenses.

Hypnotize the indy pilot with a prayer to Bob in local, and once you have him in a suggestible state, have him eject from the indy.

I know, it's boring without fireworks.

Good old Nitshe will look after you, PM me when you next go out.

I'll show you the ropes me hearty, an apprentice ganker should always be shown the 'golden rivet'.

God you guys are some sanctimonious F*****
I for one will gladly tell you how to farm scumbag botting miners for kills

Fit a catalyst with t2 neutron blasters, load void.

Max damage output with mag stabs and hybrid turret rigs (cheap)

Fit 2 cheap scrams

go to a 0.5 system and find some afk-botting miners (assume they are ALL botting coz they are)

use your D-scan to look for retrievers, covetors and hulks, they like ice fields in particular.

when u find them, make sure they havent got any hardeners on by looking at their ship hull and making sure it isnt flashing

Approach and without bumping him, park ur catalyst right on top of him and stop your ship. Dont **** around too long tho, if they see you on dscan or on grid they WILL know whats up... the thing is for this to work they have to be either botting or AFK. Which is why anyone who complains about it is a F*** head.

Overheat your guns, open fire and put ur two scrams on him. If all goes well, you will have popped him before u get concorded (and you WILL get concorded either way)

The point is you lose a crappy 10m (forgot exact cost) catalyst but u get a 30m covetor kill or if ur really lucky... a 200m hulk kill

Its cheap to do and easy to learn GO FORTH AND GRIEF THE BOTTERS!

From what I've been able to gather from the anti-gankers, you just fit a t1 cat for 2 mil, target literally any mining ship (doesn't matter where) and press f1. Boom: 1 billion ISK profit.

Well, actually ... I think you can try for T1 frigs, shuttles and such to get over the thought of losing your ship.
Probably works better with 2-3 buddies when going for that first Mack.

(meaning: have a spare, maybe even two- better to overblap it than to see it survive in 20% structure right?)

From what I've been able to gather from CODE. - there aren't any actual miners in the game anyway - they are all bots. And without even touching their computers ever their bots actually afk-mine, sell the ore, buy PLEX, and plex their accounts.

Purely by coincidence most of them return to their computers the instant *after* they are ganked - and spew utterly random insults towards their attackers - incoherent gibberish... Almost as if it was randomly generated...


Have you considered that they are probably just NPCs introduced into the game by CCP to distract you and give you something to fight against?
