I have been using MWD + cloak trick in low sec to get through all sorts of gate camps.

One thing I have been wondering is: after you warp off from one jump gate to another, can they get you at the destination gate before you session/system change?

If that is possible, I would need to warp off to a safe spot and cloak up instead of jumping to another system. So far they have not caught me at the end/destination gate but I am not sure if it was due to my warp stabilizers.

Not unless you fail to jump (disconnect, weapons timer) or they're waiting for you with smartbombs.

If you have a small fragile ship, they can possibly destroy you with smart bombs when you land.

Not really sure what the maximum amount of damage they could conceivably do with smart bombs, but it seems I've never been hit with more than maybe 1500 hp, when I encounter them at a destination gate.

how much damage they dish would depend on how many smartbombers are waiting for you.

A single smartbombing battleship with eight highslots can pump out around 2,400 raw damage with a full volley using YF-12 meta smartbombs. These will shred Shuttles, Pods and untanked Frigates.

For larger, tankier targets, simply add more smartbombing battleships, a la Rooks and Kings.

Speaking of smart bomb camps at the destination gate, I just ran into one in my travel fit frigate!

Managed to survive with 90% hull left. Thank goodness I have a medium shield extender on!
