Sometimes you win, sometimes you don't.
But you never win by not trying.

It's only a ship. Go for the adventure.

The game only says your escalation will be within a certain range, 4-8 jumps IIRC. It gives absolutely no ***** about your aversion to risk.

Go for it. You may love it. Surely more fun than giving up on the escalation and searching for another easy HS sites you must have done hundreds of times before

Cheers Love! The cavalry's here!

Also, your chance for a better rewards goes up as the system security goes down. It's still RNG, but the scales are weighed for better results in nullsec.

yeah, you need the loot fairy to drop the loots, but what you can get from those escalations into null are hell of a lot better than the usual C-types you get in high sec, if they do drop.

I hope OP does give it a go, and get some fat loots, then he'll be hooked. :D

If you make into the null alive, you might also scan down a higher level rated DED there.
Who knows? Maybe it would be a MAZE!

A bloody awful one

He'd better change out of it before he goes to null, they won't need D_scan to see him coming in that!

Higher risk and higher reward. Works like intented. Don't be afraid to leave Highsec, it's only a starter area anyway. You will get blown up in Null and WHs but the shines will make it worth over and over.


He's no stranger to Null.

Well, I actually used to live in the exact system it escalated to... But it's currently owned by MOA, which hates me now... Ironically, I was considering joining them just last week... Strange things are afoot.
