Cargo Hauling with the Cloak Trick: Difference between revisions

=== Tanking ===

Most people will notice that there is no armor or shield [[Tanking|tank]] in any of these fittings. Any kind of traditional tank is an utter waste of time and can be extremely expensive. The reality is that industrial ships are paper thin and defenseless if you get [[Tackling|tackled]] it’s only a matter of time (normally mere seconds) before you are going to be destroyed as there is no method of retaliation that we can bring to bear upon our attackers. Even if you fit weapons they will not be up to the task of taking out a ship designed for combat.

Even if you fit weapons they will not be up to the task of taking out a ship designed for combat.

Because of this we use the [[Cloak Trick]]. Instead of trying to absorb damage our goal here is to completely dodge it by being unavailable for targeting and warping out of the area as soon as possible.
