Whether you are placing a catch bubble or drag bubble, the bubble must be in line with the line of travel between the origin of the ship and destination warp point, as well within 500km of the destination. As such, this makes drag bubbles a little bit more difficult to place than catch bubbles since slight misalignment can cause the ship to reach its intended destination. The choice of which type of bubble to use is dependent on personal choice, system design, and the circumstances of why you're setting up the bubbles. | Whether you are placing a catch bubble or drag bubble, the bubble must be in line with the line of travel between the origin of the ship and destination warp point, as well within 500km of the destination.

For systems that you plan on dropping catch and drop bubbles frequently, it's best to add [[Bookmarking|bookmarks]] for those specific locations where you want to deploy the probes. Keep in mind that the probes must be deployed prior to the ship entering warp to be caught in the bubble, so catch and drag bubbles should be deployed the moment the target is in system. In addition to the primary bookmarks for bubble deployment location, you should also add bookmarks for the edge of the bubble where your targets would potentially be landing. This enables you to reliably get to the location where the target will be, and you should reposition yourself the moment you deploy the probe. When you see your target appear on D-Scan, you can deploy a second probe, and since the ship is already (presumably) in warp, they will not get caught in this bubble but be at the center of it. This tactic will limit the ability for the ship to turn around and escape the bubble quickly. | [[File:warpdisruption.jpg]] | ||
