Fighter swarming is a method to attack bases, destroy ships or carry out dogfights due to the extremely high firepower all combined fighters of a [[:Category:Carrier|Carrier]] or a Starbase usually has. This can be done with AI Fighters, though it is of much greater efficacy if it is controlled by players instead.

Sometimes, when you have enough connections and firepower, you may crossteam with another powerful player to score a high value kill. This is commonly known as Clan Trapping. Pretend that you and your friend are at war with each other by pretending to be fighting with a shiny Super Capital or two. You may choose to be stationary around one spot or enact a scene of warp chasing, making your target fall for your trick. Once your true target falls for the bait and warp to the scene, both you and your friend should turn on them immediately and get that high valued kill. It is recommended that you only clan trap with very high firepower Dreadnoughts (Retro Prototype X-1, Obliterator and etc.) or Super Capitals, or even Prototypes. This trick is fantastic for targeting someone and most people that had never experienced this will likely fall for this easily.

Have a friend or two stay at your team for a while until they get at least 7% Loyalty. Have them leave the server. Declare war on your target's faction while being solo. Your target might get complacent and not shy away from going after you. Go somewhere and let yourself get attacked by your target, pretend to be low and warp back to your base and let yourself get dived. Have your friends join back at that exact moment and spawn their big ships, because loyalty persists as long as its the same team even though you've left the server. And then annihilate your target.
