Triage and Tethering

I want to confirm I have this correct:

I am in triage and in tethering range. Due to triage I cannot tether.
One minute before triage ends I stop remote repping thus counting down my weapons timer.
Due to triage I cannot be scrammed.
The moment triage ends I will not be scrammed and I wont have a weapons timer. Will I tether up immediately? What can be done to stop me besides bumping me away from the citadel before triage ends?

Thanks!

Kill you while you are in triage?

Aye, Sea Turtles

Yes, very true. Okay, but other than that this works? The system of having two triage alternate was and still is very potent. I can effectively drop triage every 5 minutes and get reps and cap for free from my structure?

5 minutes in pvp is a long time. The fleet you are repping is close enough to go get reps them selves from the citadel or if you are solo repping the citadel that is definitely an option, but they got 5minutes to bump you off and kill you

Edit: there was talk of adding weapons timer to triage during the cap rebalance, but not sure if they went with it

Aye, Sea Turtles

No idea how it works now but I believe HIC focused point works through triage? which should also in theory prevent you tethering but no idea of the state of that ingame as I've not played in awhile.

If it doesn't currently that is definitely how it "should" work.

There's nothing in Triage preventing you from being Warp Scrambled. You have an ECM resistance and a Sensor Dampener Resistance, but no defense against Warp Scrambling and nothing prevents someone from activating such a module on you regardless. Also if you were inside a bubble you would be instantly scrammed as soon as you dropped Triage even if you did have a resistance against the effect.

Has this changed with the capital changes? you didn't use to be able to activate a warp disruptor/scrambler on a carrier in triage - I've not played since they lost their ewar immunity though.

afaik as soon as triage ends your 1mn weapons counter starts counting down so waiting it out 1min before it ends wont work, but don't quote me I don't own anything that can actually triage at this point.

I haven't tested it recently but I know Bastion doesn't stop you from being pointed, and I can find no different stats on the Triage module that might suggest it prevents being Warp Disrupted. I haven't tested recently and I can't recall for sure, but I'm fairly certain from what I do know for sure that you can just point a FAX before it leaves Triage.

I don't believe Siege and Triage cause a weapons timer on their own, or you wouldn't be able to refit during them.

Being pointed in any fashion prevents tether.
