I keep reading references to the term "Farming Statics". Can somebody explain what this is?

Thanks

When your wormhole system has a static connection to another wormhole system, and you farm that connected wormhole system, you are farming your static.

Please forgive my ignorance, but what is "farming"? I'm new to WH space and not really familiar with all the terms used.

It's when you milk cows and make cheese and ****.

It's also what a lot of people call running sites, and it's not a term specific to wormholes.

To make it clearer: doing PVE (in this case it is killing sleepers for loot) involves repeatedly predefined procedures, fits and tactics. Every NPC type, every anomaly or mission is already known and calculated. You only need to do the same steps again and again with little variations (mostly related to other players interference).

That is what people call 'farming'

So basically its just running the sites so that others spawn and running site in the statics of your chain so that they continue to spawn throughout the constellation.


Which can be quite repetitive and thus called "farming".

Thanks for the clarification.

Farming statics is mostly done because if you farm your own WH it will get out of sites pretty fast. So you farm other WHs and roll them when they are empty.

It is how you summon the Lazerhawk to come evict you.

farming static means example" i have a class 2 wormhole static highsec and class 3 as second static and i run sleeper relic and faction relic sites and green combat sites (anomalies) in that c3 static, " farming in short means to clear your static off combat anomaly sites and eventually from faction/sleeper relic sites . note that running data sites is waste of time, but you can farm sleeper data sites for blue loot and salvage called melted nanoribbons
