Wormholes

So much theories and facts available and still asking the question you already answered.

Why dont you join a established corp and learn from them or keep on reading before you're just another person asking "Need a way back to j123456"

The question isn't "how to enter a wormhole help me I'm new and never thought to use search first". The question is asking, specifically: how to reliably find entrances back to the same "home" wormhole system you've set-up shop in--from known space, and does the method change if home wormhole system is a C1 or say, C6?

Most interested in hearing insight from industry wormholers who do this regularly.

Quite simple really, there's no secrets or really any interesting methods at all.

I'm not into industry but I still leave my wormhole(s) daily for stuff. 9 times out of 10 the same exit is there when I return, because I'd be kinda silly (or in a desperate situation) to make a trip out when collapse is imminent. When our exits do collapse the new one is generally found within a few minutes by someone who's online (either from my own corp or a friendly neighbor's) and so finding the way back isn't a problem at all. All residents in our systems use a combined intel channel, so it's just a matter of asking "where's the new exit guys?".

In the rare event I'm the only person online then I'd just log in any of around a dozen alts and have them scan me a way home.

TL:DR - Corpmates, friends or alts will let me know where the new entry is.

Edit: And sure, a system with a static highsec will be easier to find your way to than a C6, for instance, because you may have numerous systems to travel through in your chain to highsec. But same principle really, just more scanning.

I use a lot of red rope. Very reliable.

The OP is indeed looking at this problem backwards. Scanning *into* a specific J-system is very difficult (I've been on two chain-collapse ops so far in C5 space: one was insanely lucky/blessed by Bob, the other was a multi-day marathon that took us through roughly half of C5 space before our target inadvertently opened their static into us!); however, having someone (corpmate, alt, ...) probe out the exit from inside and give you the bookmarks is quite easy, if not trivial.

I didn't really care to read past everyone trolling you for your question so I am not sure if anyone answered.

Basically you bookmark the route out, make sure those holes aren't end of life, or critical, and then you leave, and come back the same way through the bookmarks.

Most people who are in WH corps, that are set up in a WH do not stay out of their hole long. They do a supply run, then head directly back in. Someone should always keep an alt in the hole able to scan in case you all get locked out at the same time.


So basically, make sure your route out of the hole isn't going to collapse, and come back in the same way you left.

Looks at the coils and coils of red rope in the hold and thinks maybe I should have left that there.

If you decide to go out to sell your PI, you should always come right back. If the connection is already eol (This wormhole is reaching the end of its natural lifetime), which means it has less than 4 hours remaining before it collapses. You might want to wait and get your stuff out through the next one that spawns.
And you should always have a scanning toon logged off in there, if possible it should be in the same corp as the hauling toon. Just scan down the new exit, make a Corp bookmark and you're good.
Simply coming right back in after you sell your PI-stuff means you're good 90% of the time though.

You must be new, so welcome to wh space.

One can never have enough scanning alts logged off in your wormhole.
