Once you identify Cosmic Signature as a Wormhole, you can Warp to it, and jump through, but First of all, remember to recall your probes, you will definitely need them later. Now, that your probes are safe on board, you are free to Warp your way to freshly found Wormhole.
Upon arrival, you will be welcomed by a sight that looks more or less like this:. Our freshly discovered Wormhole. So, you have arrived and feasted your eyes on the sight for some time. Now you should gather some more intelligence. In order to do that, right click on the Wormhole and press "Show Info"; a window containing a lot of useful information will pop up. Let us explain the meaning of this information in more detail:. Wormhole Information Tab - the main indicator of what to expect on the other side.
Now, that you have gathered all the available information, it is time to see what is on the other side of the Wormhole with your own eyes. Inside the Wormhole Space The thrill of the unknown. Important Note: Remember to always take Probes with you when traveling through Wormholes, as the only secure way out of a Wormhole Space leads through another Wormhole; well, there is a second way technically, but it involves dying or self-destructing Still, it is a good idea to create a Waypoint close to a Wormhole after passing through it the Wormhole will possibly collapse or relocate before we manage to get back to it, but for a limited time, it is another way out.
As established in the Search and Identification chapter, Wormhole space can be a very dangerous place. In order to increase your chances of survival and making a profit out of your expedition, you should consider following the below-described hints:.
There are a total of 6 of these effects, and every one of them has its unique properties these properties get stronger with increasing W-Space Class number, which means that their effects will be strongest in Class 6 Systems which when utilized properly can swing any Wormhole Space engagement in your favor:. Pulsars are star-like objects which emit very powerful electromagnetic beams. Black Holes. Black Holes are regions of a spacetime exhibiting gravitational effects so strong, that not even light can escape from inside of them.
Cataclysmic Variables. CV's are stars which are able to increase their brightness by a large factor, only to drop back down to the previous state. Magnetars are Neutron Stars with extremely strong Magnetic Fields. Red Giants. Red Giants are luminous Giant Stars in the late phase of their stellar evolution. Wolf Rayets. WR stars are a rare breed of heterogenous stars with prominent broad emission lines, which is unusual for stars.
Remember that it is very important to utilize the above-mentioned system effects to your advantage, as many of them will help you speed up the Site Clearing process, while others might help you survive.
They are a great tool for increasing your ISK gains per hour. Wormholes can possibly connect two very distant places, some of them may even lead to Systems on the other side of the Galaxy.
This means that Traveling through Wormhole Space might let you save a lot of time and fuel. Taking a shortcut through a Wormhole is quite tricky, however, and consulting a Wormhole Mapper is recommended in order to establish the optimal route. We hope that this guide has answered most of your questions about the Wormhole Space, and will enable you to Farm in the W-Space more effectively, or even allow you to settle there.
Please do note that this is an early version of our guide, and we will be happy to receive constructive criticism, that will help us improve it, so leave your suggestions in the comments section below. If we have missed a piece of information that is important for you, please let us know! I would, however, recommend anchoring an Astrahus for starters. As for the larger structures, just take some time to decide if you need them or not. As your corp grows larger you can decide on if a Fortizar is needed instead.
So the only other thing to know is that structures in wormhole space have no asset safety. When it pops all the loot is going to drop in cans in a km radius roughly.
Ships that were logged off and piloted, however, will simply safe log this is a common way to use freighters to save assets. The key fact to know about, however, is that reinforcement timers are much shorter in wormhole space. It goes like this for a full power structure:. I forgot to add this in earlier, but you should hold hole control over your connections during the 24 hour anchoring process!
Keep those holes closed and close any new incoming ones, This is the safest way to anchor a structure and will keep hostile entities from even knowing there is something to kill.
An important fact to note about this is: — An outgoing wormhole does not appear on the other side until you jump it or until it reaches 15 hours of lifetime remaining. You can warp and bookmark it just fine without triggering anything. As for some example Astrahus fits to defend with I can recommend two main options. You can permajam two logi then neut out another two while shooting a fifth.
This effectively sets the minimum number of logi needed quite high. Bouncing those EWAR modules around different targets will also help induce panic and make tanking your 1, DPS really difficult while you continue to neut out targets. The only thing to watch out for is your own cap life. The second suggestion is one that makes use of a defending fleet. In this format, the Astrahus replaces the role of a Huginn while still having some ability to mess up logi. Neuting and webbing the anchor will help land web bursts on the entire hostile fleet.
This will either help with positioning against a kiting fleet or with application for your battleship weapons. You need to know why you are fitting like this and work with it. If you want to see how we successfully used something similar to this then check out my article about our eviction defence. You can simply scale these ideas back for Raitaru and Athanor fittings as long as you remember the two principles to aim for.
Be a dick and disrupt their logistics or make life easier for your own fleet. What you need will be typically determined by the refits for your doctrines and I personally like to have at least a few of every single T2 module, but I run a large-ish corp.
You never know when a suicide roller plus jump dessie combo is what you need to save yourself from eviction.
Like I say, though, any serious corp should be able to put together emergency fits from the modules they have lying around or be able to quickly give someone T1 weapons for their alt.
Most null alliances already have this covered and jump routes are available. The thing about being in a wormhole is that you could have no holes scanned or you might have an eviction fleet breathing down your neck. Being able to fit together ships to save yourself from these situations is extremely useful. That last point I mention on home defence is really important. If you can own the ships required then anyone can support you.
People often batphone my corp to help save them. If they can give me ships to fit into their own doctrine then this is so much better than me having to burn useful ships slowly to the entrance. For inspiration, you could use any of the following and fight quite well to defend a citadel grid.
You can judge the logi needed with each as necessary. In addition to these, you should have some haulers or freighters to log off with and keep assets safe. For one, wormhole space is pretty much all about PvP. That way if someone rolls into you looking for a fight then you can at least undock and have some fun rather than blueballing them. Nobody likes a salty krab that refuses to fight. This leads me to something else that most would consider taboo.
Just talk in local. Shipping down to a different doctrine reducing the people multiboxing are easy ways to make the fight fairer and more fun. Finally, if you want to start making friends and getting to know groups in wormhole space then follow my advice above. Great article! We currently have a C1. We had moved into a C2 with a HS and C3 static, and we were unfortunately evicted.
We are looking to move back into a WH this year. Any chance I could ask you a few questions sometime? Of course you can, happy to answer either here or you can DM me on Discord Laura or even Twitter if you like. Additionally, there are multiple different ways that you can live in or heavily utilize wormhole space. You can, for example, live out of a single Orca? How so? If you safe log then you will simply disappear.
How do wormhole regions work with respect to static and wandering wormholes? Same question for wandering? CCP have, thus far, not detailed anything about wormhole distributions and it would take a monumental effort to figure this out. No idea, sorry. Want to let you know that your blog is absolutely inspiring.
I put myself in the meanwhile a tiny C2 with a static C3 and HS exit. Living out of an Orca currently. Struggling with the other sites with the last waves.
Thus the odds of a N may actually be higher. Faulx wrote: Ashimat, There's probably a lot more "churn" in the wormhole network these days, so new holes are a lot quicker to cycle through.
Merchants of the Golden Goose. Quote: I know we'll get caught and die eventually. Quote: but I'm looking to make PVE as safe as possible.
The Scope. Gallente Federation. Borlag Crendraven. Borlag Crendraven wrote: That kind of attitude doesn't really fit wormholes, if you just wanted to be as safe as possible while carebearing, you might as well do it deep in sov null or in high sec. Wormholes is where you take a huge dump in someone's system by reinforcing their towers, follow up with farming their sites in hoeps of them manning up and trying to pay back in one way or another.
At times you get a good fight out of that, and at times you get a good laugh when you get capital escalations dropped at you, followed by the capitals warping out because they're too scared to fight themselves.
It's even more hilarious when your fleet survives anything the opponents can throw at you, or gank the opposing fleet entirely due to being in control of the situation. Safety is bad, being in control of the situation by playing it smart, using good scouts and planning ahead on the case of trouble is what makes living in holes fun. The isk and all that is completely secondary, if even that.
Using scouts, playing it smart, planning ahead IS done in an effort to make the situation as safe as possible. You are just playing with semantics to make it sound cooler. Doing those things in an effort to make your ISK making as safe and successful as possible does not go against the pro PVP attitiude of wormholers.
We all need to make isk to fly those fancy ships to their death. Previous Topic Next Topic. Nex apparatu5 Blackwood Co.

Since C1s are largely less populated than other areas, it's likely the rates will be a bit higher elsewhere except maybe C6s. However, as Jack Miton said earlier, these wandering wormholes the H and L in the above case only create a K when someone initiates a warp to them, so they aren't a security risk unless someone else is in your system and scanning.
You might want to consider that there are, on average, around other w-space systems with statics that lead to where ever you are, and, on top of that, there are hundreds more wandering wormholes throughout k-space and w-space which could randomly lead to your system.
Even big corps cycling holes as fast as they can could have trouble competing with the shear volume of possible random connections.
So the odds are good that when someone finds you, it may not be a big corp at all. All sites last at most 3 days once activated by someone initiating a warp to them. Combat sites may despawn sooner if they are completed.
Grav and ladar sites will last the full 3 days and can even respawn asteroids. If a site is not activated, it seems to last indefinitely. Interbus Universal Terrorfrodo Interbus Universal Likes received: Clandestine Services Ashimat Clandestine Services Likes received: That's interesting.
Since 3 weeks back I find myself in another C5 static C5 this time and it feels like this system have a WH generator hidden somewhere.
