A '''Crowbar''' is a quick-response [[Electronic Countermeasures|ECM]] ("jamming") ship designed to be used in case of an emergency to "pry" a more valuable ship out of a sticky situation. It is a specific fitting of the Tech I Caldari frigate, the [[Griffin]]. The fit is designed to be newbro-friendly (low skill requirements) and cheap (easy to afford and essentially disposable).

A doctrine-fitted Crowbar costs approximately 1.5M ISK. If you can afford to have your own, they are usually available on corporate contract in the various campus home stations. It's a good idea to have one (or more) available in each campus you frequent.
In emergencies, if you need one, they may also be borrowed from the [[EVE University Corporate Hangars|community hangars]]. (If you don't have the required title to access a specific hangar, ask someone else in the community for assistance.) If you lose your Crowbar in a QRF action, it should be eligible for reimbursement through the [[Ship Replacement Program]].

If the answer to <b>all</b> of these questions are "Yes," then a pilot can consider calling for Crowbars.
If the answer to '''all''' of these questions are "Yes," then a pilot can consider calling for Crowbars.

* The location, as precisely as possible, including the system, as well as the gate, anomaly, or asteroid belt, for example
'''After a pilot determines that calling for crowbars is justified they should relay at least following information:'''
* How many attackers you are facing
* The location, as precisely as possible, including the system, as well as the gate, anomaly, or asteroid belt, for example.
* What ships they are flying and, If possible, what kind of ECM (Ladar, Radar, Magnetometric, Gravimetric) the crowbars should fit
* Their character name: this helps fleet members warp to help immediately. It is best to refer to your character in the third person: not everyone will know you by your voice.
* If you can tank the damage, or are slowly bleeding EHP
* How many attackers you are facing.
* What ships they are flying and, If possible, what kind of ECM (Ladar /red, Radar/yellow, Magnetometric/green, Gravimetric/blue) the crowbars should fit.
* If you can tank the damage, or are slowly bleeding EHP.


{{example|
{{example|* "HELP! [insert your character name] is tackled in T22, anomaly BFG, by a Malediction (yellow jammers) and Crow (blue jammers). Tank is holding for now, but I could use some crowbars, please respond!"
* "HELP! I'm tackled in T22, anomaly BFG, by a Malediction (Amarr) + Crow (Caldari). Tank is holding for now, but I could use some Crowbars, please respond!"

=== Jammers ===
=== Jammers ===
Your jammers should be put on the tackling ship(s). Make sure you use the appropriate jammer type on each ship if more ships are present.


=== Rockets ===
=== Rockets ===
Your rockets are close range weapons, mostly aimed at clearing hostile drones that are targeting you.
=== ECM drone ===
If the attacker is inside your drone control range, the ECM drone can be used as an extra chance to get a jam off.

If the attacker is outside your drone control range, put the ECM drone on any hostile drones that might be attacking you.
