Consider everything you bring to null lost. That way you get that feeling of elation when you get back in one piece. Cool

Jump clones are kind of necessary if you're afraid of losing shiny implants.

use the in game maps statistics (players in space, recent kills/ pod kills) and dotlan to see busy systems/ recent kills to see if there is a camp, and adjust your routes accordingly. If there are people in local, assume they will kill you, fly something cloaky, use the MWD cloak trick to avoid being caught on a gate (youtube it) by small camps/ random people flying around, use the directional scanner if the gate is in range, (Scanner range us 14 odd AU I think) to see if there are any warp bubbles, make sure you set your overview up to show only hostiles, warp bubbles ETC. If the out gate on your route is not in scan range then bounce of something like a planet near the gate, and scan again. (If the system is clear, just warp straight to the outbound gate)

Once you arrive somewhere you like the look off, make some safe spots and bounces 250km off the gate. Also make an Instant undock spot on the station you want to live at, as well as some off and on grid bounces of the station. (look up how to make safe spots) Make sure you set your medical clone up for when you die, and always remember to upgrade your clone before undocking again.

Solo 0.0 is hard, markets are often bad, and you will find you have to travel far to get supplies/ fit up ships unless you hpay someone like black frog to move stuff for you,

its best to join a corp/ alliance that operate in null sec, that are willing to help new players. You can make lots of ISK in null, and have alot of fun PVPing, you will never want to go back to hi sec once you have lived in Null.

1 bomb is worthless.

7 bombs is dangerous.

The irony of the situation is that one bombshell can be more dangerous than 7 bombs. Twisted

You have to admit it's better than the usual:

1. Join nullsec alliance.
2. Immediately request someone to "haul my stuff in" - NOW.
3. Request someone to "scout me in"
4. Hey get out of my site all the good sites belong to me now
5. Hey miner guy with the rorq, the mindlink, and the 8 accounts, drop absolutely everything you are doing and come haul this 200m3 of arkonor for me
6. Oh shiiii I've been tackled in belt 1, there are 60 people in alliance, why you not come save me!
7. CTA, they don't really mean it when they say compulsory right?
8. Hey manufacture dude, how much can you make me some widgets for yeah I know the market price is 100M but why can't you make them for me for 10M?

Etc....

Eh, I apparently don't share your taste for backsides.

To each his own, I suppose.

Hey, thanks for the youtube link, my next question is those big blow blobs, I was on one of my alts and I wanted to explore null. I jumped into null sec and warped to a gate and hit a big blue bubble. Can anyone explain what that is and how to avoid? Yay noob carebear questions.

Want to get to null-sec? Look for null-sec alliances that are recruiting (most of them are all the time, the grinder always needs new meat). Convince them that you're not a spy, bend over backwards and give them your full API, kiss a lot of backsides, put in a lot of hours doing stuff FOR OTHER PEOPLE and not demanding that stuff be done for you, and you'll soon feel right at home.

cheap ship and clone ftw!

I got pretty damn far (maybe) into 0.0 with an ibis on my first character, and if I didn't stop to watch a fight I would have made it further.

I suppose Providence would be a good place to start, many benefits of null, few of the responsibilities. You'll have to be careful at first, and get to know who the locals are (they wont shoot you) and who the bad guys are (they'll shoot everyone).

As for nullsec corps and alliances... there are many that are not hardcore at all, some even do carebearing industry stuff.

There's lots of carebears. They're called renters and you find them in the eastern parts of the map ... some even rent sov.

Tssk... I dont think I have ever felt safer than when I was on a "camping trip" in nullsec actually. Nullsec is the safest place in eve to do your PvE if you know what you are doing.

If you want to deploy to deep nul, go to your destination system in a cov ops or even easier with a interdiction nullified max stabbed T3, scan down a wormhole route to empire and bring pretty much any ships you like through. If you bring along a camper (Orca) with a cov ops in its hold and use ships with drones/lasers you can basicly farm the place indefinitly.

When you want to go back to empire just wait for a suiting wormhole route back to empire and bring your ships home the same way you came there. A bonus to doing it this way is that you dont have to jump 40 jumps through bubbleinfested nullsec... you make like 2-3 jumps to get back to highsec. You may have to wait a few days to get a good route but if you do it right you should be very safe getting there and back again.
