New Stealth Bomber pilots will probably make these mistakes at least once:
New Stealth Bomber pilots will probably make these mistakes at least once:
*Warp to 0 on a battle
* Warping directly to a battle
*Warp to 0 at a warp gate
* Warping to 0 at a stargate or acceleration gate
*Warp to 0 at a Gallente Novice Outpost with a flashing yellow Stilleto and Griffin waiting outside the acceleration gate
* Accidentally uncloaking friendly bombers
*Uncloak friendly bombers at a wormhole
* Failing to align before decloaking
*Enter a -security system without a scout and be destroyed in an inescapable warp bubble
* Failing to move away (or "starburst") away from a landing area, causing fleetmates to uncloak as they land
*Linger on a gate and be destroyed by smartbombs
* Not warping off quickly enough after being targeted by an enemy (within three seconds)
*Forget to align before decloaking
*Fail to move off the landing area, uncloaking fleetmates as they land
*Fail to warp off within three seconds of being yellow-boxed by the enemy.  This mechanic has known delays in reaching clients and is the most difficult to react to.  A pilot may not see the yellow-box display on screen until after the enemy has already locked onto the stealth bomber.  Fault may be placed on connectivity and lag.  If your client is located farthest away from the main London server, take caution and shoot from range.
*Get locked by an enemy and tell yourself "I'm good for another salvo."
*Escape through a gatecamp with warp bubbles, alone too late, after the fleet has escaped.  The stargate will be occupied on both sides with warp bubbles, making escape impossible alone.
