A lot of people don't realize this, but on KA or Infected space STF's , if you get directly underneath a gate you can get to 4 km without getting shot. Very useful for cannon users.

hmm cool...in normally sit at 9.25 km to either side and just fire away heeh

I'll have to try this out.

-- nevermind

and posting on the forums about it is what makes them fix it.

Actually a good thing

even if they intend to fix it, i don't expect it to take place any time soon.
There are actually more "sweet spots" around the gate, seems the gate blocks its own weapon ports with its size.

This is massively annoying in KASE, nearly as bad as people who sit 9.9km off the gate but on the opposite side to the vortex.

Just sit at 9.5 in between the gate and the vortex, knacking probes as they come in then all targeting the gate. Much quicker.

Under the gate at 3.10 Km is the avrage it also works on tac cubes a little harder because they move but still works
