A few more tricks for you:
- Never ever jump directly gate to gate or station to gate. Use a bounce point from a celestial, preferrably within d-scan range of where youre headed. The one time you get impatient, youll be decloaked by a can on a drag bubble.
- Learn to use the map and the statistics it gives you. It'll give you a reasonably accurate picture of the activity in the area, and where potential camps are.
- Use the cheaper ships to get your feet wet. You are definitely going to get blown up trying PvP solo in nulsec, and PvE is still high risk.
-If youre going to need ammo (and you will often in a bomber) research the regional markets for the ammo/ships you need, cross reference it with the map to find a place you can dock reasonably safely during your prime time.
-D-scan is your best friend. It'll save your life, it'll find you targets. Learn how to use it well.
- The fastest way out of a bubble isn't always the safest. Especially so for experienced campers. They will haul butt to your last location, and possible routes in order to decloak you. You'll have to get a feel for each camp differently, but sometimes the safest way is to head further into bubbles in order to dodge the interceptors. If you do land in a bubble camp, give yourself a good 15 seconds to breathe and look at the safest way to survive before breaking your cloak. I hit my prop mod a fraction of a second before the cloak, it's pretty much a critical technique to have in order to not be where they predict you to be.

Theres a million more, but these are most important, IMO. Good luck, you're going to have much fun.




I think the mwd cloak trick calls for activating the cloak prior to activating the mwd. Just thought I'd point that out.

I'm just a modern day caveman in search of a bigger club.

I'd like to add another question here:

Let's say you decided that you want to settle into 0.0 NPC space. What are the differences between the available options? How do i decide between Cuse, Syndicate, Delve etc? I am currently sitting at exactly that decision and don't really know where to start.

Not having done it yet myself, I would think the first is for PVE, what kind of rats you want to go up against, as each area is help by a different pirate faction.
