The third approach needs much more effort than the first, but with the proper setup, you can destroy both T1 and T2 haulers. It needs effort and some skill with combat probing. This works best if you are using a relatively fast damage dealer, like a T3D or a [[Gnosis]]., equipped with short-range, high damage turret weapons such as blasters or pulse lasers. | The third approach needs much more effort than the first, but with the proper setup, you can destroy both T1 and T2 haulers.

The NPC response fleet should immediately aggress you and begin approaching your ship; if they don't immediately do so, shoot/use an EWAR module on the closest ship. Once you're gotten their attention, immediately warp to your ping bookmark. | The NPC response fleet should immediately aggress you and begin approaching your ship; if they don't immediately do so, shoot/use an EWAR module on the closest ship.
