So I have decided that I want to live in a Wormhole. Great right, well I dont know a dang thing about wormholes, never been in them minus the quick jolts using as a shortcut. So for a Total idiot to WH What would work best? I am guessing a C1-C3? What type of static WH would I want or just a Static HS opening? No clue where to start. I know about pos's and defence tatics, but how does one choose the type of WH/effects to shop for? Idea is to make isk with littlest risk possible.

If you want a C3, you're limited to 3 different statics: HS, LS, and NS. If you want to turbojew and have the sp, a C3>NS would be good as you can run your home sites and then dive out into NS to find relics/datas. Logistics might be a bit of a pain though.

If you want to use WH income to semi-support you, or only like flying frigs/T1 cruisers and want to do danque solo-pvp(unless you're not going solo, then danque small gang) then a C3>LS is for you.

C3>HS is fine and dandy for logistic purposes, but you'll run out of money-making opportunities rather quickly.

With a C2 you can get a k-space+a WH static. If you're mildly competant, a C2>HS/C3 is prolly the best for making money because you can roll the C3 when your current static gets cleared out. If you're a pussy/have bad skills, a C2>LS/C2 will work.

As for effects, in low class holes they don't matter too much. If you want to run a self-rep ship instead of passive regen, avoid Catas. Otherwise it doesn't really matter too much

If thuggin' was a category I'd win a Grammy

With the amout of connections C3's are getting these days. finding a highsec chain is pretty easy. I live in a C2 with C3/HS static. It's rare for the C3 to have less then 5 WH's open at the same time. Many times even a highsec hole.

But you have to keep in mind that this also increases your risk in a C3. There will be lots of trafic so running sites will be a pain. Also you wont be able to have scouts on every WH to hear if someone enters.
