In | === Freigter Ganking === | ||
In High Sec there is a danger of a "freighter gank" where a group of players aim to immobilize and destroy your freighter before CONCORD destroys all of their ships (usually seconds on both counts.) Immediately afterwards they will use other characters and loot your freighter wreck. Long standing examples of this have happened in Niarja and Uedama and any 0.5/0.6 system on the major trade routes can be problematic at times. | |||
'''A freighter should never have more than 2bil ISK in cargo at any time.''' Once a freighter has more than that, it becomes a gank target. | '''A freighter should never have more than 2bil ISK in cargo at any time.''' Once a freighter has more than that, it becomes a gank target. | ||

The use of a webbing alt is highly recommended | The use of a webbing alt is highly recommended when passing through hotzones such as Niarja or Uedama. A webbing alt (or webber) can be any ship with 3 or more stasis webifiers on it. After a stargate jump if you activate the webs on your freighter, the freighter's max speed will be reduced allowing it to get into warp nearly instantly. Here is a video demonstrating the tactic: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CjrbDMh3BHY&list=PLIOM-qilFsoQZyhpxd7bsx5DQCEM0EiiQ&index=3 . To web your freighter without getting CONCORDed your webber must be in the same corp as your hauler or your hauler must accept a duel from your webber. | ||
Some ships have bonuses to webbing range such as the '''Huginn, Rapier, Hyena, Vigil Fleet Issue''', or '''Cruor''' making them ideal for use as a freighter webbing ship. While training for a proper web ship, a fast frigate with a MWD can do but they should only be used while you train for a better webber. A squishy frigate can easily be popped. | Some ships have bonuses to webbing range such as the '''Huginn, Rapier, Hyena, Vigil Fleet Issue''', or '''Cruor''' making them ideal for use as a freighter webbing ship.
