Exploit Lancer Dreads freezing gates with smart bomb

I thought I’d make all jump pilots & capital’s aware of a exploit this Lancer dread pilot is using.

When you jump out of low sec to high sec the dread sits at the back of the gate cloaked and decloaks as you drop out of warp firing a kind of smart bomb that locks the gate disabling you from jumping for at least a minute! Saying (session changing)
They get you down to 10% structure then wack you off the gate with a macheriel to make it look like a genuine kill. I’ve currently got a support ticket :ticket: in but no reply as yet.

Are you talking about Lancers?

Sorry yes a lancer dread player.

And what’s the exploit?

The Lance does exactly what you describe: you cannot tether, warp, use a jump drive, nor use a stargate. He hit you, you can’t jump, it’s working as intended.

You cant freeze gates up man thats just wrong. ------------------------------------------------------------

Yes you can and it’s been in the patch notes for 4 months and was shouted at the rooftops when Lancers were first discussed in Eve News AND has already been talked about to death on these very forums AND has been talked to death on Reddit.

You’re just late and didn’t take responsibility for your own education. Sorry you had to learn the hard way, but it’s your own fault.

I only came back to Eve three months back so i wouldnt understand that part thanks, however he did not lock me and fired so its still a exploit or shady game machanics.

Has it happend to your self Dude?

14

no because i know what CCP changed ! and i know i can handle the new mechanic !

15

Ahh the dude that doesnt make a mistake, guess your one of them.

16

i still make mistakes :slight_smile: but if i fly my jumpfreighters i know what do to because they are expensive ships … xD if youre not aware of your sourroundings then … your fault !

my mistakes are not that i dont be informed of changes of my part of the game :wink:

17

How can you see when there cloaked? Do you start orbiting every gate you jump into>?

19

if you dont know how to collect intel about your jumproute … maybe you shouldnt fly a JF !

20

Yeah maybe you can have all my things when i quit and become even more of a toon.

21

you can’t fit a lance and a cloak at the same time, so if he cloaked then who cares?

22

i think you dont have that much left :wink: your most expensive ship is now only dust !
