Hello Smile

I am looking to start something new in EVE as i am getting less than enthusiastic about what i'm currently doing..

I used to be heavily into Faction Warefare, Mining, Manafacturing and generally going on Militia roams when i can afford it and shooting war targets.. I also have had a fondness for wormholes for quite some time and take a solo trip into one every so often to play with the sleepers..

But lately im feeling like i just want to branch into something new.. Including a new corporation and playing with a group of people so i sold up all my unnecessary items and sitting on around 900mil to start a new EVE life with..

I am looking for a wormhole corporation that is very active with many members.. Preferably either living in a Wormhole with exits to high sec around Minmatar space (Im currently sitting in Rens) or a corporation that does regular Wormhole ops around minmatar space.. PVP, PVE and just have fun with a group of like minded people.. If not in high sec then somewhere down in 0.0 perhaps as long as its primarily wormhole oriented..

I am 21, from UK, currently have 15mil SP and i am very active, especially when it comes to fleeting up..

So if your looking for new Pilots feel free to post here with information about your corp please

Thanks

Good luck with that. There's absolutely zero wormhole corps that fit your description, thanks to k-space connections leading to wherever. Because of this, you'll never have any guarantees of getting the connection to Minmatar space, nor even to continuous high sec, regardless of whether you have a high sec static or not. That said, unless you consider that absolutely vital, you shouldn't have too much problems finding a corp to your liking, as long as you have the basics covered in terms of skills (scanning, able to fly suitable boats for the wormhole class you're thinking of etc).

Well as you can see im pretty new to the whole thing so i'll need a heads up on things if i do find one but thanks for that info tho Smile

It's not that vital it's just i have been in minmatar space since 2009 and i know all the systems around that area and it would be nice to not have to fly 80 jumps down the pipe to wherever an entrance is to join up with the new corp Lol

Also the reason for me wanting a high sec exit is because i have never lived in a WH before and unsure how it works so i would like to get my feet wet first before jumping in to the deep end..

Altho if it was with a very well established corp that would show me the ropes i guess i wouldn't have a problem with it because i have little to lose by trying it out fully right now..

Check the alliance and recruitment forum. You'll find plenty of corporations (amongst others members of NoHo) advertising for members.

This forum really isn't the right place.

Quick thing with Wormhole Entrances. They can appear anywhere in highsec for a highsec static. We had one 4 from Rens 2 days ago, followed by 3 from Jita, its pretty good.

Are you around later on this afternoon/evening? if so, pop into our Public channel(INFEN Pub), and we'll see if you fit where we're looking for. Here is our Recruitment thread btw.

Talk later perhaps!

as said, wormholes can lead anywhere, and if youre picky (or cant travel through some space due to standings) it will go frustrating very very quickly. Also, most wh corps live in wh space. not like a base where people come and go, more to the point where we get confused in highsec.

if you want to find a nice corp, check the notable wormhole alliances threat in this forum sections. they are the top alliances and corps currently in (mostly high class) wormhole space and are always looking for new people who want to learn their way of life :)

good luck and hope to see you around, being shot at, or shooting with us :)

Maybe some people don't understand WH mechanics as well as us? Surely it would be more helpful to educate, rather than mock?

If you're really new to w-space and want a short primer, try this: http://www.wormholefundamentals.com/ There's also information on various EVE wikis that goes more in depth.

If you join a wormhole corp and you have a ton of stuff in Minmatar space, you may just have to wait until they have an exit into Minmatar space to move in. Knowing one area of known space well shouldn't influence your choice of statics, though. Hisec statics make logistics and getting in and out of known space easier (unless you're allergic to all or some of hisec). Lowsec statics or nullsec statics mean you have more space for PvP roams or otherwise reaping the bounty of those spaces. A static of C1-C3 (though I really do not recommend a C1 static) means you're always going to connect to a system that has a known space static, though it's a dice roll as to the sec status of that space.

If you join a corp, they will almost certainly show you around. Everyone does things a little differently. It will help them and you if you know the basics of how wormholes work going into it, though.

That video series, is actually quite nice. I've linked it to a few people who needed a bit of background.

And i agree. With wormholes, the only downside to a HS static, is if you are hated by a particular faction. That makes it entertaining. A few of us spent 20 minutes trying to get an orca out of amarr while being shot my amarr police. My my local was amusing...

The thing is, life in w-space requires initiative. People without initiative don't add anything and this mindset is exactly what leads to corp inactivity. And no corp wants to recruit people like that.

So if you want to live in w-space, show some initiative and try to learn what you can before throwing yourself out there.

I agree, initiative should be shown. But the OP posted looking for information. Yes he didnt know the mechanics properly, but at least he wants to learn, rather than just another, "I found a wormhole, I died, i'm never going back" thread.

And he just so happened to miss the sticky with "notable wormhole corps" on it?

Oh I dunno. I find it very helpful to mock others. Almost as good as fapping, and I don't have to take off my pants.

Have you ever actually been in a wormhole? I'm guessing not. Start by day tripping - get a scan ship/alt and hit a few C1/C2 holes and see if you like it.

Maybe find a alliance/corp that offers a WH class - I know Eve Uni used to do such things - other corps may do too. There are a fair few guides on what you *need* to know before/during/after, along with ship fittings and fleet formations. It's a steep learning curve, that can be expensive, but if get a decent grounding you may well come to love it.

I started with a Heron and a Drake on the same character - it was painfully slow but I got the bug.....

I recommend 4U Holdings. I use to be part of it and they are a great bunch of guys. Often do C5/6 sleepers and lots of PVP based in and around wormholes.
