Warfare & Tactics

Hello fellow EVE players, I've already posted the same thing on Reddit but I wanted to share it here too.

I would like to share an efficient technique that I've used with friends, this is also an invitation to catch every super / titan that use safespots (many are logged out in safespots, just locate the super / titan and find if he has any POS in the system, if not he will die if you do it right).

Here are two videos showing the technique : (Phobos perspective)
(Buzzard perspective, you see the titan getting decloaked)

Since Rubicon, it is possible to probe slow ships that take time to exit warp before they cloak, so even if the super warps to a new safe and cloaks immediately it is possible to land right on him.
You just need to probe the ship as soon as he logs in (or jumps, provided your intel) and bookmark the scan location ASAP every time, when the ship disappears from scan, warp to your latest bookmark and you'll decloak it.

If you check my KB (check zKB, can't link it here), in december I got 3 in 3 days with that technique (and 2 others a bit later).

The best setup to do this is to have a covert ops or T3 fitted for max probing bonuses (I used virtue too but you take the risk of being smartbombed) equipped with a civilian gun (to aggro him) and 2-3 hics with big tank and a set of NOS so that you can sustain cap draining and fighters damage before big boys arrive (add a Bhaalgorn if you're wealthy and carriers for cap / rep).
So advice for you if you need to move / buy / sell a super / titan, never use safespots, always use POS's. Everytime you warp to a safe you take the risk of losing your ship, it's that simple, even if you've never used the safe before and cloak immediately.

Among those who died : 1st pic, 2nd pic I can't find pics for the others

Cheers !

Just wanted to make a small contribution to the EVE community. Some people thought that we used the ewarp exploit, but we didn't and I also wanted to clear that.

Note : I did this between december and february, I don't know if any changes were made to warp mechanics since I left.
Also I'm selling my prober / booster (the char that probed all of them)
