I've been ganked countless times in the past, to the point where I was just running away when I saw the rogues symbols, to deny those d**ks the satisfaction of another cheap kill, where they usually outnumber their victims. My gear is not brilliant (170K DPS, 445 toughness, 16K skill, 75% armour) and, I HATE the trolls, griefers and gankers in the Dark zone.
BUT, last night, I grouped up with 2 randoms in the DZ, in my quest to try and improve my stats'. As usual, there were loads of total knobbers, trolling and, generally spoliing other people's fun. We were extracting in DZ1 (a mistake, I know), when 2 players appeared and, started doing the usual bouncing around us, doing star jumps by the rope, etc. With a few seconds to go, we attached our loot (one at a time) and, hey presto! Sticky bombs came in from these 2 guys. To my surprise, I didn't even lose a bar of health. It must have surprised the 2 idiots as well, because, they popped survivor link and tried to run away, giving me time to prep and throw a shock grenade and switch to incendiariy rounds. I shot them both as they tried ro run away. This was as big a surprise for me as it doubtless was for them!
What I want to say from all of this, is THANKYOU to those 2 idiots, because, not only did you show me that not all rogues are super geared, professional griefers and, that I can try to take them on sometimes but my biggest "thankyou" to them, is that I finally got the last achievement (that I thought I'd never get!) and, got 100% completion on the game! The DZ credits and keys were also very nice lads, so, thanks again.
