Missions & Complexes

IMO a medium tower is viable in a C1. They are generally not popular enough for someone to bash you out of the system. And no BS allowed means they are not likely to bother for the lols.

C2 and higher though I would only use a large.

If you want to live solo in a class 3 wh, you need a medium tower, a hangar array and a ship maint array. Then you need a **** ton of hardeners and ecm modules on your tower to make it as sucky to kill ass possible and a few guns and a disruptor to deter anyone from setting up a solo sentry domi on your pos. You could go for a large tower, but large towers uses more fuel a month than a medium does.


You will need two or three characters in your wh. One "keymaster" thats safed up in your wh with a probe launcher, and one character that does all the other stuff (anoms, hauls, mines) - if your main is bubbled up and killed in your hole, you still have a way to getting back there with your second alt there to probe you an entrance.



To solo c3 anoms you need either a t3, CS or a bs. I used a legion and nh to clear the anoms in a reasonble quick time (roughly 114m/hr on a good day). and a stabbed noctis with inert stabs for a quick gtfo. Also nice to have is a bomber to kill off any intruder (log off in one outside scanning range of nearby planets).

Get used to use your d-scanner.... alot, set it to 360 degree - max range. press it every three or four second or faster if your paranoid :-) D-scan must only show ships, probes and nothing else (no cans, no pos modules or nothing



If someone finds a way to your hole, safe up and take a a two hour break, but know that any trespassers will prob be back later to take a look if you are active or not (if they are pvpers). I'd usually just log in a bomber and relog later.


If someone want to evict you from your wh. First thing they'll do is kill of the guns and disruptor module, then bubble up your pos with large t2 bubbles to prevent you from warping in and out of your pos with valuable assets. If your tower gets rf'ed (reinforced) you will no longer have access to your hangar array(!) so if you have anything valuable, put it in your blockade runner (and you'll need one of those if you have a static lowsec!).

Only have exactly what you need in your hole to minimize your losses if anyone want to take your shineys; ships, ammo, sleeper lewt etc.

Wormholing is prob more safe than mining in hisec atm... believe it or not :-)

Only time i got ganked in w-space was when i i asked for it and hang outside my pos trying to put ammo in my offlined guns like a boss

no

That's not even mentioning all the BC someone can get in. and the hole control. LArge pos is the way to go.

When we did it, it wasn't too bad. Mostly because we set up quickly and quietly, built our battleships fast, and then ran straight at the towers. They were so surprised, they had a self destruction party and then were nice enough to hand over their caps so we could tear it down even faster. In return, we let them take one orcaload and whatever ship they were in out.

On a side note, I can say I flew a dread in a c1. How fun!

for any c1-4 WH, get a large tower (not a god damn medium....) fit a handful of medium guns, 2-3 neuts, some tackle and fully dickstar it.
you can get something like 40 online ECM and 30-40 online damps on a large POS.
given any attackers can't bring dreads, 99% of them won't want to touch a fully decked out **** star with a barge pole.

Some people do it for fun. ;)

I have lived solo in a C3. Sole meaning just RL me, and dual boxed. 2 Drakes will do just fine running the anoms, its not optimal, but it works. Once you get loads of isk, you can upgrade to tengu's, they don't have to be faction fit to work. Use a large POS, the one I was in had all the planets for the PI, so only had to bring in the stuff I couldn't PI. 3 bustard loads a month is all I needed. Put as many shield hardners as you can, unless you are a POS gunner, having loads of guns, ecm etc is pretty useless. Fill your stront bay. Learn to love dscan. Have basic scan alt off you main account in the wh for when you get podded, because you will at some stage. Keep all your fancy loot etc in HS. If you have a carrier in the wh, keep it in the hangar.
I enjoyed my time in the C3, once you move up, you need corpies/friends, and your time is no longer your own. Join a wh alliance, or at least become blue to them , it helps to have help when you need it, and you get to join them in some pvp also.
Always have your sig's scanned down, its good to know whats out there.
i wouldn't bother with carrier til you have been in the hole for e few months, no point building a carrier and 2 months down the line deciding wh'ing is not for you... it takes work to keep it safe

Has nothing to do with the class of the wormhole whatsoever. Has to do with where the static leads to. Static to hi's get jacked the most for obvious reasons.
