Psshhhh...FPS playerss....
Ganking means to "surprise attack".
In EVE, it's mostly used by pirates using warp bubbles and such. |

If Debacle is referring to gank as in EVE terminology back when I played then he means fit for most overall dps possible.
I will explain a bit further it's been a few years since I played EVE there was the Gank Fit, fit damage mods/tracking mods you know things that will help do the most damage in the shortest time to kill faster at the cost of survivability.
Then there was the Tank Fit sacrifice overall Dps for a better chance of surviving
I could be wrong here though and he could mean that do you just own on the battlefield whether youGÇÖre in a tank or ground pounding.

Your talking about high level players beating up on low level players that have no chance of fighting back whatsoever. If so most players are culprits of ganking. |

Gank example, 5 stealth bombers warp in on a hurricane then peace out immediately after.
Another one, hulk is mining in a belt, warp in with a small frig gang, web and point hulk, blow it up. (shout out to hulkageddon) |

No that is not what I mean.
An example of what I mean is when I'm in my tank and I'm attacking. I see an enemy tank on the map north of the western warehouse moving south along that western road. I'll set up south of the pipes that lead from the tower next to the warehouse. When he moves under and south of the pipes, I will kill him. I would have gotten several shots (Or maybe all of them) off without him noticing me.
That's ganking. It's a little different than EVE, but the same concept is applied. |

Ah basically a Kamikaze fit. You load a militia suit with damage mods and RE's making a suicide run towards a tank or proto heavy. Or load a cheaper vehicle with damage mods just to take out a more expensive ones.
You spend little isk to blow up an expensive fit. |

Ganking to me in DUST is all about being able to hit them as hard as possible so that you kill in as little hits as possible
In EVE is alpha striking mining ships or indys |

And yes - ganking is when you see someone, could kill him easily, but instead follow him til he reaches his goal - and then kill him right when he starts hacking. I do this. All. The. Time.
It is glorious. |

Yes but I won't truly be able to exploit this until they fix damage mods for vehicles and until they add black ops tanks  |

You sure about that?
A bunch of cheaper ships attacking a more expensive ship in high sec knowing that the concord is going to arrive and destroy them has nothing to do with kamikaze or suicide? |

Not necessarily... You equip mods that are made to bring down an enemy player, ganking isnt so much a fit as it is choosing how and when to engage a target so the battle ends up favourably for you. If i know a frig is on a gate id send a couple frigs around to the opposite side of that gate to wait for him while sending another two frigs to push him through the gate so the waiting frigs could tackle him while he tried to warp.
A gank fit would consist of a web, a disrupter(point), and some sort of speed
Mod like afterburners or a microwarpdrive, also preferrably tech 2 autocannons or Lasers. |

In EVE, yes. In Dust, not really. Maybe later though. |
