I fail to believe that the gankers would bother to take time to draw Concord away from a belt.
They would just move on and find a simpler target. There are so many out there, why would they bother?


Drawing concord out of the belt will increase their response time. if you draw concord out to 300au then they warp 300au to kill your noob ship and then have to make the trip back to kill your miner ganker. Depending how many au you can drag concord out it can increase their response time up to an extrra 10 seconds or more just agress a cargo can you dropped in your deepest safe. DO NOT ENGAGE MINER UNTIL CONCORD HAVE DESTROYED YOUR 300AU NOOB SHIP. If you go gcc before concord kill your 300au noob ship alt then EVE will spawn more concord which will have much faster response time to kill your ganker

As stated by ISD drawing concord is not an exploit which is why I shared this. I always thought moving concord is an exploit but apparently not. I think if you have any old very deep safes you could have a lot of fun ganking many miners at the same time if you spawn concord 1000 au away or such. Sadly I do not own any safes like this.

The important thing is to prevent multiple concord fleets spawning at same time or you will lose the time advantage as long as you keep to one GCC at anyone time then there will only be one concord fleet which you can move very far away from yourself, you can gain good time advantages if you do this. Even if multiple concord fleets are already in system all will be dragged away just make sure they are all on grid before you go GGC on miner.

This was before boomerang nerf I'm not sure if that nerf also killed this move.

Oh please! Use Tornadoes to gank mining Rokh.

Hey, wait until I get my Rokh! Ok?

Righto,

recycling alts to bypass game mechanics, (security standing in this instance), is not permitted in any way!

Before you ask, yes this comes directly from a GM.


so basically you are not allowed to start a new char after recycling a char with negative standings? where is the line between 'i don't like this toon's face' and ' i'm doing this to fck over CONCORD'?

I should buy an Ishtar.

I would assume it is determined the second time you "do not like the toon's face" right after he hits -5.0 or lower sec status.

+1 for mining Rokh

Despite my posting prowess I really am terrible at this game

...What's the problem of making it into some kinda planetary interaction alt or something anyway..? It's not like it can't train skills... And if you REALLY have to, use it to clear the rats and mission a bit with it, security status isn't THAT hard to regain...

1. it wont stop alpha ganks, although I'd guess those would be slightly less common as it would be much cheaper to use a few destroyers/cruisers

2. might give you an extra 15m or so of freedom as they just gank people in the other belt.
