Null can be dangerous but its also fun.

Suggestion: if you have an cpone without implants, fit a cheap frigate and just take a look. All you might loose is a cheap ship and a clone which inst too expensive to update again at this stage.

But why should I go in NULL? This is still the same universe, with planets, suns, and a lot of void space ;) I have no real reason to go there for now, I'll not mine, explore or other things in null...

Because right now you have nothing to lose having a peek and if you happen to kill a few rats in belts before someone attacks you, you might find a motivation and even have some fun... provided you get past the gate camps.

And provide I can kill those rats. You should remember I'm not a fighter, I have no fighting skill, and therefore I doubt I can kill NULL rats ^^

I'm just saying since you're brand new and implantless, shrug off what CAS people say about null, go see for yourself, chat up with people you may encounter and make your own mind. Don't think null is dangerous, you get podded everyday and there's nothing to do for a newb there because a guy said so in CAS corp chat.
Go hit a gate camp several times and you might even earn a free ship and a pass for a tour.

Why are you talking about CAS? Nobody told me anything about going into null or not going into null. Just that for now I have no business going into null, that's all ^^

Yet the best mining is in....


Nullsec

Mine ark for couple of hours and you will know why. But as with most eve stuff, the higher the risk the better the payout.

I have +4's on Xuixien's learning clone and +5 on my alt's learning clone. I used +3's for the longest time, but once I decided to stop being cheap I started kicking myself in the arse for not using higher grade implants sooner.

That said, +4's will turn a 12 hour long train into a 10 hour long train. The change is substantial and can save you a couple of days out of the month. +5's, on the other hand - not much of a return on investment. They'll change a 12 hour long train into maybe a 9 hour 50 minutes long train - not much of an improvement over the 4's. Stick with the 4's.

I roam low sec all the time and keep a full set of +4s installed. If I were to ever head to null or a WH, I'd hop into a clone with just two +3s in the two stats that I'm training at the moment to keep my potential losses minimal. +1s or +2s if my planned trip to null/WH was going to be brief.


In the cat-and-mouse game that is low sec, there is no shame in learning to be a better mouse.
