Ah escape,not kill them all

Ofc not. It's plain dumb for a single ship to take a full wing of PvP fitted hunting ships on.
04 Apr 2017, 5:53pm
true

take the interdicter out and run
04 Apr 2017, 5:55pm
Don't be a hero - just run!

Useless, since you don't know whether they have more interdictors fitted on the other ships. Jumping through the masslock takes too long too.

Highwake and try again to get through, if you're lucky they're busy ganging up on someone else. If you haven't the nerves for that, go Private or Solo. After all that's specifically what those modes are for, excluding others and preventing them from interfering with your game.

Especialy with 2mill cargo

Tbh the long and short of it is simply if you aren't prepared to deal with "griefers" (bare in mind the definition of the term is heavily... heavily debated. But that's not the topic) then either stay in Private/Solo, or fly in a Wing.

Whether your cargo is 2K, 2Mill, or even 200Mill, you're a target in Open. Some pirates DO operate in wings. If they didn't, what exactly would the point of entire pirate organisations be (e.g. the NPCs of Kumo Crew or the RL Players in Black Omega? Black Omega of course are really just a Private Security and Acquisitions business. ) If you can't tolerate that, you simply shouldn't stay in Open. Full Stop. End of story.

Just to clarify here - Black Omega isn't a PvP pirate group, it's a BGS-focused group.
