Stargates Sentrys

Hello.
Second time i get podded in a stargate in low sec.
Are not the sentry guns supposed to protect you there?

ā€œProtectā€, but not necessarily ā€œsaveā€ you. The guns exist, but odds are good that they will not save you depending on what is attacking you and what you are flying.

CONCORD and the NPC sentries and such arenā€™t meant to protect, they are meant to punish.

Anyone camping a low sec gate will be set up to be able to tank the sentries. It requires a bit more effort/numbers/organisation than attacking you in deadspace, but itā€™s not that hard.

you can easy tank gate and station guns ā€¦ if the fight is not running toooooo long

And when youā€˜re a suspect (loot!), they just grab some and watch you explode.

They donā€™t protect anyone per say. They just shoot at those taking hostile actions near them. If they were truly were to protect you they would have remote reps or something to help you liveā€¦
