For me as WH noob, I find it has a lot of info I don't quite get, for instance:

1. How many wormholes can a single w-space system contain?
7, 4 outbound and 3 K162.

Holes can be outbound one way only? And what does K162 mean?

No, there's no one way holes, although that may be a thought CCP will now use for the future. :P

You have two types of wormholes. And when I say "wormholes", I am not talking about "wormhole systems", I am specifying the entrances and exits themselves. One type originates on your side, be it inside wormhole space or outside in empire space. This is an outbound wormhole. It will have a letter designation followed by a number, ie B274. All of these except K162s are the originating side of the wormhole. K162 is always the destination side of every wormhole.

For example, we have a B274 high sec static. When we warp to it, it spawns the K162 somewhere in high security space so that we can exit. When we pass through the B274 side, the other side will be a K162. If you scan and find a K162, then it's coming into where-ever you are from the other side.

Bumping this thread; Theres a new version coming in under a week with all the fixes requested by users here and on FHC. I have delayed the chapter on T3 production as I want to get it right, and also RL has been hectic :)



If anyone wants to buy full page ad space in the guide I am now allowing this. We are also supplying banner space and vocal adverts on the next PodGoo Podcast, bust spaces are limited.

Bump from page 4. I'm hard at work on the section on T3 production, but it is taking longer then anticipated.

Nice guide.

I've skimmed it (will go through it a bit more later) and apart from a couple typos/spelling mistakes, I did find 2 factual errors you may want to correct:

1:
How long will this wormhole last for?
“Life-cycle has not yet begun” means that the wormhole is new. “Probably won’t last another day” means there is more than 25% of the actual lifetime left. “Nearing the end of its life” means that there is less than 25% of the actual time left. (See below). Wormholes can last for 16 or 24 hours.

the 25% at "nearing end of life" is not correct.
it is always 4 hours, even on a 24h WH.

2:
"Assigning fighters from a carrier will also cause a capital escalation."

no it will not.
it used to but was changed at the same time as capital escalations were changed to spawn when a cap lands on grid, not when it initiates warp.

Lastly, the triage carrier fit in that document is not good at all.
Refer to Narwhals, AHARM or RnK loss mails for how triage carriers should be fit.

There is no Bob.
