Wormholes

I'm curious whether the horrific situation I'm seeing in C5 space is just me being biased or not. So please post here what you see in your chains, how many C5s, C6s, how many nulls, what state, do they last, do they close in your face, etc. How ****** we really are?


we live in c5/c5 and currently have 8 C5s, 2 C6s and one null...


Dont kid yourself, noone will read this, nothing will get reverted, but it would be nice to have a bigger picture and a representative sample of the pit of **** we got thrown into (again).

The 16 hour thing is a PITA, we have a static null and the lifecycle is irritating between timezones. At 24 hours, getting a nice system/location it was good to run intel for the other TZ from EUTZ, not the hole lifetimes are much shorter it makes this a lot harder.

I realise we can rage roll, but 24 hours was a good number for early EUTZ to do the legwork for west coasters an still leave enough time for fun when we found a good linkage.

Wish the statics hadn't been altered :S

Probably a tad too early to jump to conclusions. One day worth of testing can't produce a pattern and all deductions made are quite random. Especially the K162s that are opened from NS/LS are closed with higher probability due to people interrupting their normal routines with the new sov and all.

We c4 people deal with 16 hour lifetimes quite fine - and that's our static wormholes, not random holes to k-space. Really, transients could have 8 hour lifetimes and it would be fine - if it goes EOL, you just roll your actual static and re-roll the dice. i don't see the lifetime being an issue - if it is an issue, you are holding onto your chain too much to make use of it.

I can't comment on C5 space much, but we notice no difference in nullsec density thus far. it's a shame, I really wanted to make use of that new website to go harass random sov timers throughout space. Looks like we cannot. Guess that only people with authenticated Blue Donut Certified Nullsec membership Cards can attend!

My understanding is that the N432 (starting form null and leading to C5 space) worms were either removed or drastically nerfed. I had one every two systems usually in Stain and today I did not find any in three hours roaming. This hurts me a lot because I used to use short worm chains to store loot in HS. I believe it is possible to find some middle ground between the yesterday's profusion and what I exeperienced today.

Operationally its a bit worse than that as wormholes found in the EOL will likely not be used for roams. This is further increased if fewer people, are in space scanning/opening the holes from the null side which recent pilot counts would tend to suggest. Generally it takes 3-4 null wormhole finds to find one useful one, as such it is a rather large loss of content.

Yesterday my home had two null holes in our chain. One connection was from a c3 with a static null the other from a low. We had no c5 to null connections. Small sample size but it made for a dull evening with an early logoff.

There goes moving capitals from wormhole to wormhole via null...

if you want to go to null so bad just move there~

M8, I need people to stroke my e-peen about racking up kills vs afktars and miners while colonizing "dangerous space".

I can confirm that the spawn rate of null holes has been reduced dramatically whether it is K162 or N432. Currently, we run into a null every 5 holes or so we scan compared to getting drowned in null connections before the patch.
