I've found myself lately in this situation where our USTZ sucks and we're outnumbered on a pos that's being seiged so the FC tells us to dip and dunk outside the pos shields and try to take something down without losses.
What always happens is people dip too far out and die, or get chased back into the shields by missles and stop when they think their safe and get raped. Soo.. Here are some tips and tricks on how not to fail and die.
First thing is the approach:
- Never MWD towards the edge of the shield, if lag hits or your stupid, which most of you are, you go to far outside the pos, can't turn off your mwd, can't stop and simply die in a fire with a sig radius the size of 5 of your ships.
- Add Force Fields to your overview via the overview settings window. It's under Filter>Types>Celestial
- While you are inside the Pos FF you will have a distance from the FF 0. APPRОACH thе Force Field.
As long as your not going stupid fast you will end up within 200m of the safety of the Pos FF‚ If you set your speed down to half or quarter or something stupidly low to be sure you don't go flying out of the force field, once you are ouside the pos FF set your speed to max. This will make sure you don't crawl back into the pos ff at .125m/s and actually get back in before you die.
- Now that you've got that down when you are outside the pos, when you get yellow boxed by the fleet, duck inside the pos before you take damage or at the very first sign of damage, don't push your luck. and DОN'T push your MWD.
By prеssing your MWD you just blew your sig radius up by 500% for those late comer Missiles which will follow you inside the pos FF.
- When you do duck back into the shields‚ Оrbit thе tower near the shields for at least 30 seconds or reapproach the tower for a bit before stopping to mitigate incoming missiles damage.
- Don't Die.
