** Covetors are a ganker's target of choice due to its inadequate tank and advertises, "I have ''no'' tank, only yield"

** Fit enough tank (and train tanking skills) to survive the ganker's DPS long enough for CONCORD to destroy the ganker; as of Rubicon 1.2, this means surviving a Catalyst's 728.2 DPS for 20 seconds--14,564 Void damage--in a 0.6 system (No Covetor fit can tank long enough in 0.5, even with all level V skills)
