==DSTs should stay in high sec.== | |||
:That means High Sec contracts should not be taken through Low Sec as a shortcut. The customer is being charged for the safest route. | |||
'''NOTE:''' DSTs no longer do contracts to or from low sec. Due to advances in low sec gate camp techniques, DSTs are not safe in low sec. | '''NOTE:''' DSTs no longer do contracts to or from low sec. Due to advances in low sec gate camp techniques, DSTs are not safe in low sec. | ||

:* | :* DST are allowed to accept and haul multiple X-Small/Small contracts for contiguous HS to HS couriers while remaining under our HS Small Collateral Limit (10B). | ||

:With the nerf to resistances, DSTs have lost significant EHP values. | |||
:* Corp DST fits have been updated accordingly, but no fit can save you for bad piloting. | |||
:It is important to utilize the proper cloak+MWD mechanic with DSTs at the majority of HS gates | |||
:Once you jump a new gate, it is critical to actively check for system safety before hitting warp: | |||
:*Use dscan to check for ganking ships on close-DSCAN - are there 10 tornadoes on dscan? | |||
:*Use your eyes to look for suicide tackle on the gate - is there a slasher, moa, or maller sitting there, with 30 catalysts on dscan? | |||
:*Use your eyes to check local for large groups of known gankers. | |||
:The majority of systems in/around Jita are best traversed with a cloak+MWD procedure by default. | |||
:Alternate routes that avoid common ganking gates may be advisable, such as going to Maurasi first instead of using the Perimeter/Jita gate interchange. | |||
:Lower security status and common ganking systems like Uedama, Niarja, Bagodon, etc, should also use cloak+MWD by default | |||
:In empty or near-empty backwater systems, a dual-prop AB warp can be safely utilized. | |||
:''High-ganking activity systems'' use suicide tackle and decloakers, so DST pilots should check for high-gank activity systems on a route before traversing with PX freight in cargo (Uedama as the primary example) | |||

:Dual-Prop DST fits utilizing an MJD may allow a DST to survive the initial volley of incoming DPS while still successfully MJD'ing out. | |||
