' Wrote:Oh yea, ALWAYS use a jump hole, never a gate :P
The gates can get clogged up and leave you with a huge line of NPC's in the way, jump holes are instant.
Quick fix for that: enter formation with a group of NPCs that are docking. If you time it right, PRESTO! Instadock.

I enjoy the realization that its run or die. (Why else fly a xeno into New York?) If you get attacked by a Gb it may be possible to take down in an LF if its a big bulky one that turns like a dog. Serioudly once you learn to fly an LF they ain't too bad. I would fly an LF over a VHF any day as they suit my piloting style.
So for me no exemption to the rules.

could sit there the whole day shooting it and it wont do crap.

Well If you had 2 shield busters, and then two hull busters, you could do it.. in about one hour of shooting directly at it...

Tis possible with use of errrm.... Unorthodox tactics :crazy:
However what i meant was an LF can easily hold on long enough for back up if you do it right. And then there always is your speed advantage to outrun the GB.

Gunboat thrusts at 140, Lightfighter 200. Enough said.
Kindred said it right there.. Thrust. You go faster than he does.. He cannot enter cruise till you are off scanners or enter cruise yourself. Screenshot him if he does. Thrust to a friendly base of JH

' Wrote:Screenshot him if he does.To me that sounds like abuse of the PvP rules to get players sanctioned really, using sanctions as a secret anti-cap weapon.

Blunt, then you never had 6 caps chasing you and e-killing from cruise in front of you and beating the crap out of ya.
Sure, you could turn and go the other way, but you loose some 10 bots once they are so close to you that they can't miss you with 1700 speed guns.
How's that not abuse?
Can't catch 'im? Fly a fighter.
