Neither of these if you want to survive your journey. A blockade runner should work (in the “can’t catch it” spirit) but I don’t have experience with that.

a blockade runner is a good idea. but don’t accuse me of trolling as i am not doing that!
Another serious question: If you are a wormhole guy, why do you care about a highsec choke point? I thought you should be able to just drop out of your hole on either side.
Also in case of BRs, cluttered gates are problematic because you can’t cloak so going through lowsec might actually be safer.
sometimes our wormhole exit is on the other side of uedama. we don’t get to choose our wormhole exit and rolling them is just a pain in the arse.
Then maybe you can wait for another round and save yourself a critical issue?
Sorry, the way you seem to
- be the next random alt in line to link a zkillboard report of that guy who seems to have been using alts various times to expose his name multiple times earlier
- keep missing the point about that EHP is not the same thing as EHP/s for survivability
made me think you’re trolling. I could be wrong of course.
lol of course i’m a random alt! you don’t think i’d use my main and expose my wormhole to eviction, don’t you?
…also to pad his killboard with the almost identical hauler kills during the 100% loot drop even. 
Neither, this is the Mammoth I routinely use to haul my stuff from Jita to Dodixie and back:

I used it against a catalyst with void 25km apart with enough ammo to deal 1 million damage and left it running for a while and when I came back the mammoth was still alive and the catalyst was out of ammo.
I should also mention I haul with this fit only on Sisi.
Why do you play on Sisi? you lose everything every 3 months.
I’ve never gotten ganked there.
It’s ok. I was ganked many times. I lost Orcas and Freighters. It’s just part of the game. Accept it.
Ah! If it is OK, then my fit suggestion above, and the fits the others have suggested, would all work very well for your purposes then.
That’s not quite how it works. The bait Nereus usually operates by going yellow flashy and having people think ’ ah…an easily defeatable Nereus, I’ll have a go '. The shield purgers are there to help the Nereus last a long time against a small number of ships. And it is very effective at that.
BUT, the downside of it all is that he has less actual EHP than if he’d fitted shield extenders. He’s relying almost entirely on shield recharge. That means that if a group of gankers can fire a lot of alpha shot in a short time, not even his shield recharge will help him. If his shield recharges completely in 30 seconds but gankers can outdo his 15K basic EHP in 20 seconds, then he’s stuffed.
So no, the bait Nereus is NOT an ideal anti-ganker ship. A group of half a dozen Catalysts will make mincemeat of it. And as that bait Nereus is around 250m ISK…that’s a fool’s errand.
This is why I love Eve. There are no perfect solutions to anything. Every upside has a downside.

I had been testing a few ships out in Tama with simular setup
(credit goes to 2016) The Sigil is always bait - YouTube
It requires at least 1 BS or at least a Trig ship to break the shield or at least a few frigates.
You can see on Youtube there had been many vods popping up over the years though the one I watched was one linked o/
It is fun to do at least try it out yourself and Tama is a great place to bring such fun content.
This is how it works.
The tank he have would not defend him against alpha damage used in ganking. Its sustainable against set amount of damage pouring, not against all of damage coming at the same time, because it would break the regen and it would drop to very small number after a certain portion of shield is gone.

I think he can find a ship and try tanking it and test against damage in abyss for example, or against gankers. After few attempts he will see whats going on, and why passive shield fails.

I agree with them either blocade runner or dst with mwd cloak trick. Tanking is a no go they will just bring more people.
Anyway, the damage in zkill shows reality. Such damage was dealt in sum. Its damage, not hp of ship as it shows in fitting window
