If you have to ask, you can't do it. But yes.

>Now what?
Do the Tutorial then the Career Agent missions; they give you ISK, ships, skillbooks and teach you basics. Talk to players and try to find a corp. The game is only as boring as you are.
No, really. Find a corp.
You don't want to be that guy.

There's two ways you can look at it.

One is that it's removed the danger and thrill from what you were doing before.

The other is that it's allowed you to come up with new, more daring ways to find thrills.

A cloaking device is one of the first basic steps to go from being prey to predator in wormholes.

Yeaah I was thinking about fitting a battle Heron, but I think I'll just get an Astero. Camping sites sounds pretty boring tho, and I actually saw only 2 other explorers this whole time. Maybe when I get to Stratios.
>>
>>164692789
Definitely get an astero, people shitting on them are idiots.

Any competent explorer will make enough and fly safe enough that the chance of losing one is very slim, and you instantly go from having to avoid asteros to preying on other exploration frigs. You don't even have to camp sites, just operate in a way that allows you to option to sneak up and kill other explorers should you find them.

Don't even unpackage the ship if you can't use a covops cloak though.

Pretty much entirely wrong but you still generally need to pay 10bux to the forums which is bullshit cause the recruiters you'll meet are scammers.

Honestly the worst part is that it puts a permanent black mark on your character/account and that you're tied to the Mittani who is among the worst kind of scum just shy of doing something like outright murder or human trafficking, and has conflict of interest ties to the various official EVE news sources nearly on-par with the Clinton's ties to most media outlets. I'd reccommend a mid to small sized corp instead like that fucker before that isn't part of PL or Goonshit, but for completely different reasons.

>>
>mining shit my corp told me to train up first before anything else is done
Now what?
I kinda want to go exploration, but it's so fucking infuriating spending 20 minutes scanning down a single site. Not to mention it would take around 3 weeks to train for a covert ops frigate not counting cloaks which are basically the entire point of that shit.

Someone in my corp said I should go for running combat sites/mission running but the fit that they showed me would literally take a month to train for. What do I do? I'd like something that ideally won't take an entire month before I can do basic stuff. As is, I feel really limited in what I can do, combat sites and mission running that are rewarding are locked or undoable to me in the mediocre frigates/destroyers I have. Exploration is okay, but hi sec is pointless and low sec is dangerous, not to mention how much competition there is. Is there some sort of stopgap thing I can train that would take less than a week and let me do stuff in the time it takes to train to one of those things?

Seriously though, I literally don't know what the fuck to do or focus on. People in my corp aren't helping either, I tried to ask one guy if there's some way that I could do basic stuff other than mining without afking for a month while skills train and he just memed at me about how the game takes time and went to do something else.

I'm running PI with 1-day cycles, sometimes the daily clicking makes me just want to end it all but it's worth about 650m a month for 5 minutes of daily effort. Spent less than 2 days of training time on the skills, although I should get Advanced Planetology because hunting for hotspots with trial-and-error blind extractor jobs sucks.
>>
>>164716635
>>164717283
sounds like you're hurtin' for some stable isk income. Mining is bad, really bad, even with awesome jita-value buy-back programs in nullsec corps I STILL wont do it.
There's an absolute bare minimum vexor navy issue fit for anom ratting if you want to go that route, basically just requires you to focus on skilling drones. Personally I've never regretted making my mission alt. Yes I can run incursions with it instead but with missions I dont have to bother transporting my shit, getting on comms, or getting on a waitlist. The NPC agents are always available when I feel like blitzing for an hour or two.

Per character but I do it in a WH. Should be able to get pretty close if you have good nullsec space, but if it's with a big alliance there'll be more competition for resources and you'll need Advanced Planetology more.
>>
Do the reactive gas hotspots move?
>>
>>164719667
Lasers are garbage tho.
>>
>>164721092
The hotspots are consumed over time so you might have to eventually move your extractors elsewhere. The more people extracting from the same planet the faster they're exhumed.
>>
>>164721510
to continue, it's a good idea to design your planetary structures so that it's easy to move the whole shebang when you need to move the extractor, because otherwise you might end up with really long Links between the structures that take too much PG/CPU.

For my setup I have each extractor paired with a launchpad and 2x Basic factories, then when all the hotspots in range of the extractor are extinguished I just decommission all the buildings and rebuild them close to the next set of hotspots.

I've personally seen 2 failed noctis ganks from retards not bothering to check a fit. If you tank it enough it can survive 2 catalysts outputting 700dps for 20seconds. Although they might see that as dragging their honor through the mud and they'll just call their buddies for help. I personally think the noctis is way too expensive for its purpose

Do they make enough to be worth the substantial risk of losing it?
>>
>>164766148
if the risk is substantial you're doing it wrong. and yes, but it's hard to tell how much you make because the income from exploration is very wonky. yesterday for example I did a drone site in about 10 minutes in a t1 cruiser and made 200 mil, but that's exceptionally lucky. I did another much harder longer site in a bc and made about 50 mil and it took something like an hour. it's all about lucky drops
>>
>>164766148
Lowsec isn't that risky when you're careful, so it should be easy enough to break even. There's an often overlooked amount of stuff in lowsec, you can hunt for clone soldier tags and Mordus BPCs for instance, both are only found in lowsec belts.

>but's the same as curse roughly.
Curse is a ship that fits more neuts (needing lowslot fitting modules for PG), has fewer lowslots (and even fewer yet after putting in RCUs to fit a full rack of neuts), has more mids (meaning more slots for a shield tank), and isn't cloaky. If you're fitting a Pilgrim the same as a ship so different to it, you're fucking retarded.

>ARMOR buffer is bad becaue 1600 plate leaves you fuck all for fitting on cruiser hulls.
Pilgrim has enough grid to fit a 1600mm plate, 3 medium neuts and an MWD with no fitting modules or rigs at all.

Pilgrim exists to drop active tanked ratters and neuting them dry. You probably shouldn't solo in it either because the DPS is frigate tier, just use a Stratios if you want to solo.

It's just that most of the playerbase wants to just pew pew in expensive ships all the time and this is considered the meta and endgame for most. Mining is necessary to support massive, expensive ships exploding all the time so it's natural it's still on top as most profitable even if it is soul crushingly boring.
I still get the shit scared out of me when some ganker in a Catalyst warps in on me at 0, locks, scrams and I explode thanks to his friend just behind him. I've seen them do it to ventures, am tempted to just lay in wait with a cloak and spring a trap on them with an alt.

Stop going to high sec connected wormholes maybe?
>>
>>164783108
Tell me how then.
No matter how many holes I take, the next one will have a highsec connection.
One time I went into lowsec, found a hole in lowsec and that hole had highsec connection too.
Another time I went through 5 holes in a row hoping to end up in a bumfuck nowhere. And.... Nope, highsec was the first hole I scanned.
In my experience C1-3 holes with no highsec connection are like <10% maybe even <5% but that may be a bit far fetched.

I'm not doing it on purpose I swear.
>>
>>164783460

Apples and Oranges, sir. You're going to find nothing but shit in those sites, granted you'll find more isk/hr in highsec data sites than null/wh relic sites.

If you check C3, for example, out of 495 systems only 105 have high sec statics. So unless you're extremely unlucky and get high sec wormholes spawned or keep finding connections to the same wormholes over and over, over time you're bound to find more wormholes without high sec connections. So, I dunno, git gud maybe?

???

If you're talking null then it goes like this:
a) end up scanning the entire region and end up without a single site
b) Stratios lands on my face before getting to the first can on the first site I attempt, even with nobody on local during scanning

>>164784393
Dunno man, I visited 40-50 C1-3 holes and fully scanned all except maybe a handful (4-5 tops) and the ones without a highsec connection were a rarity.
Maybe I should start counting.
>>
>>164783917
so start your own "incursion community"
>>
>>164785096
If you keep scanning and all of them have high sec connections, you could try this: find the one without high sec static and log off in space preferably safe log off. Then return in couple days and hopefully high sec connections will be gone. Then you can scan again and get wormholes noone could access from high sec unless they have high sec connections too, lol. If this doesn't help, I'd suggest going through one of null sec connections and do exploration there. This way you get to null sec without worrying about gate camps and shit like that.

Each Data site was 10-12m each, each relic site was far less. I only popped two cans due to bullshit difficulty randomization (Here's three virus suppressors and two antiviruses within your first ten selections. Also no toys (^: ) but still coming out of a wormhole with 70m of stuff when I could have done more doing anomalies or gas sites is kind of...insulting.

>>
>>
>>164786035
There's two problems with your first suggestion. I still appreciate your input, just won't use it because:
- don't know how to tell apart static wormholes from normal ones
- logging off in wh means considerable time spent in a shitty pod (offline), meaning a lot of lost sp

As for the second suggestion:
I take all nullsec connections the game offers me. With some limited success exploring there.

>>164787716
That's exactly how I'm doing it. I literally only managed to snatch one (1) site in whs over my short exploration career.
All other sites (and there's been quite a lot) had a cloaked Astero in them, or one warping in shortly afterwards.
Only loot I got was from nullsec to which I have gotten through whs.

>>164789563
Tripwire is a browser app that you can use to keep track of wormholes and where they go. Seems it's not working right now. So I'd recommend using wh.pasta.gg when exploring so you can see what statics are in most holes; pasta doesn't have shattered holes in it, so for that you'd have to refer to Eve-University's list of known statics.

>What are statics?
Static holes are ones that always exist in a specific J-space. For example, let's use a hole that I was just in, J144426. Plugging it into pasta gives us the fact that it's a C2 wormhole with two statics; a B274 to Highsec and a Y683 to a C4. Simply put, this J-space will ALWAYS have a B274 and Y683. Will they go to the same place? No. After the hole goes away (Either critical mass or just End of Life) it will spawn a brand new signature to somewhere else in the universe.

The wormhole map changes dynamically because connections crash and form, but you can figure out which connection connects to what and how.

Good goys, let the butthurt flow through you.
Honestly though I managed corp stuff and explored at the same time, with shit all over my screen, and made some 100mil in maybe 3 hours on an alpha account in a 900k imicus.
I lost one imicus cus I was having a irl conversation while trying to dodge a combat probing astero, and then nearly lost one when some WHs got triggered and started warping combat ships into my sites.

There is very little risk in reality, and a shitload of isk just sitting there. If you tried hard, and went on at the right times, went to the right holes, used a mapping application and actually got gud at the minigame, you could probably plex in about 20 hours of exploring, even as an alpha shitter.

Alternatively, join Moot's Last Stand and I can show you the ropes, as I guarantee you are doing it wrong if you can't make dank isk off explo.

That's some very weird unlock, I almost never see anyone in holes and even when I do, they're not camping a site.

That said wh explo is only worth it if you can't quickly find a null connection to a good, silent system, because you'll waste way too much time scanning down combat, sleeper, and gas sites. By comparison, good null areas can make you unreal isk in little time.
>>
>>164794490
You guys said it's fine to run them as alpha so I assumed alphas are meant to fail tons of cans.

>>164794507
Don't be autistic about it. It's like in singleplayer games.
You play it without using cheats because cheats make it no fun, but when you get bored/tired/whatever you look them up anyway.
This is no different.

I will avoid cheating whenever possible, but should the situation provoke it then it's fine.
What I hate is defaulting to cheats, using them as granted/part of the game.
That's third party apps, ingrained into eve-community to the point of being accepted by devs.
It's a personal philosophy, feel free to judge.

Actually I find EVE fair on many levels.
Just because you get wrecked in an uneven brawl doesn't mean the game's unfair.
Yes the fight itself was unfair, but all it means you have to get better by getting m8s or learning to fly well or getting isk.
It's fair in the manner that you can make every fight uneven to your advantage with enough foresight and preparations.

Just said in my previous post that pandering to babbies who can't properly play the game isn't the definition of "fair" I like to refer to.
I like the "Git gud or die" fair. The best kind of fair.

>>164795891
Yes, I have considered it.
A good example is that CCP added ship simulating so things like EFT aren't technically "cheating" any more.
It's just a personal rant, but I strongly believe that now - when the community has all the statics "figured out" - static connections should be marked in-game.
A quality-of-life improvement if nothing else.

>>164795971
Because maybe it is good profits, and I was just extremely unlucky with the cans/wormholes? It is RNG after all.
You're expecting me to know things I don't know, and then act surprised that I didn't know them.
C'mon man.

Just remember the art of war: the four generals that will lose every fight are the ignorant, the inexperienced, the lazy, and the honorable.

Both are newbie friendly and its not like you have to stay with them if you don't like it.
Honestly most of the non "meme" alliances (entities not from here, SA or even Reddit) and corps in eve are fucking terrible and their member's insufferable SJW types. I say this because TEST (the reddit alliance) as horrible as you might imagine them to be are still 100x times better then any other pubbie alliance or corp.


Then again its not the only thing you can do, you can always go to NPC 0.0 space like syndicate and not be forced to join anyone. That's how I got started I just hung around npc 0.0 and I was taken under the wing of another corp that lived in the same system I did.

Also right now if you hate reddit, by joining a GF corp this is the closest you are going to get to legally killing redditors IRL.

If you're a just browsing games to play, try EVE this game is amazing and isn't anywhere close to the amount of suck it was pre-2011.

Also, the is probably the best time since then to start a new corp and try to make a dent in EVE history as the biggest Alliances don't hold anywhere close to the amount of power on the galaxy as they did before. Get the fuck in here and play some spaceships.

you usually only need to do this for high-low and low-null

Yeah, yeah, wormholes, I know, but, same as travel fitting, null VNI ratting is hardly profitable enough to go through all of that effort, I feel. I already get ticks comparable to VNI ratting while running lv4s in high sec in my Mach so the only aspect of null VNI ratting that seems to be an advantage over it is its low effort in comparison, so having to jump through a bunch of hoops to get access to it kind of defeats the purpose.

Is the some catch in upgrading from Imicus to Heron?
Free midslot, smaller sig radius and longer targeting range with almost no drawbacks (10% chance of aligning one tick later, 300m/s slower, lock speed slower by fraction of a second).
Apart from having to train Caldari Frigate that is.

Heron is the goto t1 explo, isn't it?
>>
>>164843790
Pretty much. These small imbalances are something that CCP gives no fug about.
>>
>>164843790
Yes Heron is the shit. Magnate if you want to be one of those retards with 4 warp stabs.
>>
>>164843887
Imo the imbalance is acceptable, it's not like one is a straight up better than the other.
Imicus is the tiniest of bits safer with extra speed an align time, but Heron is definitely the best in actually doing the job, full-on-specialization tier.

That obviously makes Heron the goto t1 frig, but as long as others have a valid niche (like safety on an exploration vessel) it's fine.
Even Magnate has it's tank niche. Not sure what probe is good for tho.

But that's precisely the case. More mid slots on a scanner trumps any other meme align bonuses. It ends up being objectively better at its jobs and all other purposes.

>Even Magnate has it's tank niche

Not it doesn't. Heron beats all scanfrigs in terms of tank because it can fit dual MASB.

Please stop pretending you are an authority on balance, you Pupper fuck.

Eh. I'm not an authority, just some anon with opinions.

You must prove you've done it, though. Obviously it doesn't count otherwise. If you succeed, you are officially welcome to join dreddit
>>
>>164845682
Except it's not a fork/brick comparison but fork/chopstick.

You'll eat faster with a fork (explore faster with Heron) and it's the better tool for the job if you're looking for raw eating power (raw isk/h).
But if you're eating with chopsticks you have a smaller chance of choking (smaller chance of being caught in an Imicus/Magnate), but you're sacrificing a lot of eating speed for that to the point where it's FAR from an even match.

Plus they carry cultural burden, much like those ships carry skill training burden.
Yet you can learn to use either should you so desire.

In this metaphor brick is like ceptor exploration. It has it's niche, but it just doesn't compare.
