I want to plug some holes

Hi! My account is a few years old but I have only been playing about 9 months worth of that time. And for the duration of this gametime I have been a carebear, I have never left highsec before. andI want to change that. I have looked at the different options and wormholes seem to interest me the most, but I have no idea where to begin.

Here are my skills
http://eveboard.com/pilot/Xanato_Kaso

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE look at my skills before posting, I am not what you might think at first glance.


What would you suggest I do to get started? I have tried to apply to a couple of corps in static wormholes but they determined I was to green to be considered an asset, so I want to get some experience.

If there is someone out there looking to recruit newer players I would also be open to discussing that as well.

First tip, scanning skills, train them both in game skills and rl skills. Go out scan a crap tonne till it becomes second nature. You will be doing this a lot so it pays off to get good at it.

Second tip, find a corp that lives in lower end wormholes, you will find both sites and fights more suited to your sp level. There are corps out there who look for lower sp pilots, one example is Sudden Buggery if you play us-au tz.

Lastly, before you join a corp ask if you can sit on comms with them for a week. This allows them to get to know you more, and more importantly for you to get to know if these guys are a good match for you. Dont rush and jump in to the first corp you find and end up the only one online most of your play time, or find you don't enjoy the corp's culture

Either way welcome to w-space and good luck in your future endevours

Your character's skills aren't that bad.

One thing you will really need in w-space is a CovOPs frig.(or a T3 with CovOPs cloak, but I would suggest starting with a frig)
Since you already have amarr frig 5 I would suggest training for the Anathema. Make sure you can fit a CovertOPs cloaking device!
Get the all the astrometric skills to 4. (5 is nice, but not really needed)

Do some reading about the basics of w-space. e.g. here

Now you are ready for w-space.
As some suggested it might be easier if you look for a low class corp.

If you looked closer at my skills you would notice I have Cov Ops lvl 3. I already have an anathema. But I do need to get cloaking to lvl 4 which I am currently training. And I think only 2 of my astro skills are not level 4. I really want lvl 5 for the t2 equipment but mannnnn does it take a long ass time to train those level 5 kills.

Whoops, my bad.

Yes, the skills for the T2 probing equipment take a really long time to train. They are nice to have, but I wouldn't make them a priority.

Sisters probes launchers and probes will be of great help, fit a gravimetric rig too and the mid slot scan enhancers (according to skills and you will be pretty maxed in an anethma, L5 astrometrics is certainly not held by all wormholers even those who specialise in scanning, but there's always the perfectionist who will disagreeLol
Your scanning skills are fine to start, and many corps are recruiting, there is always room for new people with your skills.
Most alliances in c4 and down welcome players without experience of wormhole space, the person is the most important part, the skills can be learned, in time, if you have solid basics as you do.

High power
1x Improved Cloaking Device II
1x Expanded Probe Launcher II
Medium power
1x Cap Recharger II
1x 1MN Microwarpdrive II
Low power
1x Damage Control II
1x Small Armor Repairer II
1x Reactor Control Unit II
Rig Slot
2x Small Gravity Capacitor Upgrade I

That is my probing fit Anathema that I was using for exploration sites.

I should add, I have SoE launchers and probes, as well as the t1 data analyzers.

I can also fly a legion, would that be better since it can like transform into other things by going to a station/orca?

Edit: Any way for me to safely (within standard constant death threat status) be able to fly my paladin in the wormholes? I dearly love my paladin and the badass tankydamage dealing monster that it is and would love to be able to use it in there.

Why do you have a repper on that anathema fit?

Cloaky Legion is nice if you intend to tackle stuff. If you are only probing an anathema will be sufficient (and faster).

Yes, people use marauders for C4 and C5 combat anoms. It's risky, but good isk/h.
There are some techniques to make sure that you notice when someone enters the system, but you might be stuck in bastion and thus can't leave the anom in time. If that happens you'll usually die. (unless the attackers completely underestimate what a paladin can do)

With your skills and level of experience you seem like a great fit for Lazerhawks

Kind of like an adults only episode of Voltron, but dubbed in Chinese with Russian subtitles?
