Combat Assistance

Combat assistance is the act of assisting another player while in combat in any shape or form using remote modules that assist said pilot.

Remote assistance modules

These items include Remote Armor Repair systems, Remote Shield Transporters, Remote Hull Repair systems, Capacitor Transfer Arrays, Remote Sensor Boosters, Projected ECCM Modules and Tracking Links along with several types of drones that act on similar principals.

How?

The way this is done is by having a remote assistance module on your ship, targeting your intended receiver of assistance and activating said module when lock has been achieved.

It is important to note that any aggression that the receiver of combat assistance has will carry over to the assisting party with all applicable aggression timers reset to their default values. For more information on aggression timers see this article on Aggression timers and see this article for the Criminal Flagging system which can also be at play.

Please note: Assisting any pirate entity in high security space will result in Concord or Sentry gun retaliation. This includes pirate NPC ships in missions, asteroid belts and exploration sites.
