Ok im looking for tips on this one.
Basically me and 4 other friends who recently started playing are looking for something we can do as a group. They have all got hurricane battlecruisers and with their limited skills ive helped them optimize fittings via EFT.
So thats a group of 5 of us in total, 4 with battlecruisers and me with the option of a battleship.
Id like some help on what EvE can offer us in terms of group activity.
We have tried DED Spaces. The problem is that the easy ones dont let our battlecruisers in and the ones we can get in appear to be too hard for us. (Taking on 6 battleships at once etc) :gonk:
I was toying with the idea of perhaps trying a gate camp on a .4 systems .5 gate but im not sure if this would be wise.
Help? :psy:

Mount up on fast cheap cruisers, go tearing around 0.0. Profit.

I'm no expert but the main gate camps I've been spotting on my travels around Empire can easily be avoided albiet longer routes.
Of course you will no doubt have some brave numpty that tries but so far I've easily dodged them all (touches wood).
I guess the expert on pwning poor souls in lowsec and tanking concord at the same time is Grim :)

Gate camping can be very profitable...

WIN!
Only 4 of us showed up in the end, me in my Hyperion and 3 others in Hurricanes.
We found a .4 / .5 system (Mara) and camped the gate for about 20mins. During which at least 5 potential targets zipped through and we managed to lock down and kill a ferox (the others were frigates and too fast for us to lock down). The adrenaline and "zomg" moment was had by all and after 15mins of hiding by a nearby planet waiting for the global aggro to wear off we were all excited at our new yellow overview appearence! :awesome:

Get gatecamp nuked every stargate you go through, run out of money, go back to mining for a year to afford new cruisers to get gatecamped in again.
:awesome:

dont go to Mara again, its a pointless dead-end low-sec area with barely anything apart from other pirates. If you want more pvp go to a different section of low-sec nearby :)

That sounds like you enjoyed yourself and have been bitten by the PVP bug as well!
