At the distances involved, your ship's effective transversal velocity will be low. The Sentry Towers can strike out to 250km, meaning that frigates will be toasted before they even make it halfway. In fact, a frigate with a Microwarpdrive on when the initial alpha strike happens could be destroyed with a single hit.

'''Also be warned:''' There is a hidden Restless Sentry Tower that can be activated by proximity to the Tractor Beam zone, right next to the Tractor Beam itself. As seen in some of the images, hidden sentry towers can generate in two specific areas: near the Tractor Beam, and about 70km away from the Tractor Beam off to one side. Their activation proximity is roughly 20km of their spawn spot. Both Sentry Towers are duplicates of ones that can spawn by hacking the respective RDGUs which trigger them: killing either "type" (proximity activated or by hacking RDGUs) will not spawn another in the same spot. | ||
The alternate method is to use the Tractor Beam.
