Hisec Suspect Hunting

This Page is a WORK IN PROGRESS, please do not edit without first contacting Kerthor

What is it?

Hunting Criminally flagged pilots (who may be suspect or criminal flagged, it doesn't matter) in high security space can be a fun and safe way of learning and practising a lot of the skills that you will need to use in other forms of PvP.

You have the added benefit of being realtively safe whilst searching for targets and this can allow you to proceed at your own pace. I typically play in an environment with a lot of distractions, both in and out of game, and I find the ability to dip in and out helps out immensely.

It can also be a carried out as a solo pursuit and so works well for people who can't always get on mumble and maybe only have a few minutes at a time to dedicate to playing EVE.

What we're looking for is any legal target that we can attack in high security space and get a Killmail for. There is also the strong possibility of getting a bounty payment for the kill (since most of the possible targets also have bounties on them) and you can often loot the wrecks of your kills since outlaw and criminal wrecks are automatically abandoned and can be looted by anyone without suspect flagging.

Its also something that new players can get involved in because, most of the time depending on target selection, you will have Gate guns and/or CONCORD on your side which means that you don't have to be particularly skilled.

You will also find yourself hanging around in space where a lot of suicide ganking happens and you will develop a very good feel for the mechanics of how this happens, where it happens, how to spot the signs and how to avoid it.

Types of Targets

What we're looking for is anybody in space who is one of the following;

• Criminally flagged - typically someone who has attacked another pilot in high security space i.e. a Suicide Ganker
• Suspect Flagged - Somebody who has been flagged for a suspect action like stealing from somebody else's wreck for example
• An outlaw - a Security status below -5.0, sometimes referred to as a 'PermaFlashy'

Note that the standard UNI overview setup will make these targets flash on the overview (either yellow, orange or red depending on type). Any of these 'flashies'
