Once the scram is on you, your options are:

1: Go fast enough to get out of scram range, when the scram drops warp before they can re-engage it. Variations include bumping them, bouncing them off the gate, etc. Note that this rarely works as they're generally prepared to outrun you (they'll have a web or just be in a fast ship.

2: Break their target lock somehow, generally with ECM. Then warp out before they re-lock.

3: Us a capacitor drain of some kind (usually a Nos) to kill their cap so they can't keep the module running.

4: Kill them fast, then warp away before their friends arrive.

Generally speaking being cautious and not putting yourself in a position to be trapped is going to have a higher success rate, though.


Great advice... for 1v1 or other small gang engagements. If you get caught at a camp and it's you vs. 4, 5 or more... chances are, you die.
