Gate camps: Difference between revisions

Line 55:

You will only find these kind of gatecamps in nullsec. Some of the techniques used for lowsec gatecamps can be applied to these. The difficulty with nullsec camps is that multiple gates in the system can be camped using drag bubbles, and you could potentially be camped from your warp ''to'' the gate as well as after your jump ''through'' the gate.

As you can see from the image, warping in on the axis of the bubble ~~with~~ drag you into it, catching you off of the gate, making you a very easy target. Remember, though: bubbles prevent you from warping, but they will not deactivate prop mods, so you can still overheat your propulsion and try to burn out of them.

If you are planning any travel in nullsec it is worth reading up on [[Tackling#Warp_disruption_fields|bubble mechanics]]. A rule of thumb in nullsec is to do everything possible to '''avoid warping directly from gate to gate''' in any system which is not entirely empty or filled only with confirmed allies.
