If you're starting off in High Sec, you will have less to worry about in terms of random encounters with other players, but correspondingly smaller rewards from the exploration sites. | If you're starting off in High Sec, you will have less to worry about in terms of random encounters with other players, but correspondingly smaller rewards from the exploration sites. | ||

+ | When using corp bookmarks for Wormholes in conjunction with Eveeye. Please use the following simple standards. | ||
+ | * * (Star) - Start a BM with this if the WH leads towards Nikh, Oishami or Brah. " | ||
+ | * ! - Use this to mark something as end of life, or danger | ||
+ | * NC - "Not Clear" add this to the end of Gas cloud bookmarks, this ensures people know there is likely rats on grid | ||
+ | * CLR - " | ||
+ | * C1, C2, C3 .... etc for WHs over the J name, if there are multiple of the same type, then add the sig after it. | ||
+ | * System name or HS/LS/NS for empire/null exits | ||
+ | Examples: | ||
+ | * * Brah (a WH that leads back to our home WH Brah) | ||
+ | * * Nikh (a WH that leads home to Nikh) | ||
+ | * XGC-456 - Barren Reservoir - NC! (Means the gas site has not been cleared, there may be rats on grid, exclamation mark denotes danger) | ||
+ | * ! C3 (The C3 hole is end of life, exclamation mark still used as danger/ | ||
+ | * STF C2 (first three letters of the signature before the hole, especially useful when there is multiple holes of the same type) | ||
+ | * LS Abha (LS hole to Abha) | ||
+ | * * C2 (This denotes a C2 hole that forms part of the chain leading back home) | ||

+ | //You can also add notes to signatures in Eveeye, also very useful to share information on things.// | ||

+ | ===== How to determine a farming wormhole system ===== | ||
+ | Sometimes, one may stumble upon a good farming wormhole system while exploring the w-space. | ||
+ | |||
+ | This section demonstrates steps to safely scan and determine if you have found a farming wormhole, a temporary playground in relative safety. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Remember there is no absolute safety in a wormhole system. Regular use of the direction scanner and a cloaky ship are a must. | ||
+ | |||
+ | - Once a wormhole signature is scanned down, warp to 0km | ||
+ | - Check the wormhole code. if the code is K162, it has been opened from the other side by someone. | ||
+ | - Enter the wormhole and check if there are any structures like citadels, refineries, or engineering complexes. If there are any structure, warp cloaked at 100km to each one to see if they are online and have people in them. If there are people or the structure is online, the system is considered occupied. | ||
+ | - If all of them are offline, you may be in for a big space firework. The job can be too big for a single toon to carry out, and there may be diplo issues with the aggression. Please consult the leadership before you lite that firework. If you are not interested on lighting things on fire, move to the next step. | ||
+ | - If there are no structures, the next step will be searching for the control towers. You may need to jump to celestials to scan them down using Directional scanner. | ||
+ | - Any control towers that are online indicates there are residents in the system. | ||
+ | - Rarely, you may be able to find offline control towers with hanger arrays or ships floating around. You can comeback with your pod to steal the ships, blow up the hanger to loot them, etc. | ||
+ | - Now that it is determined that there are no obvious signs of residents, the system needs to be scanned down. Main objects are the number of Wormhole Signatures. once scanned DO NOT INITIATE WARP TO WORMHOLES!!* | ||
+ | - Open [[http:// | ||
+ | - If the number of Wormholes in the system is exactly one more than the number of static in Anoik.is, the system can be used for a farming ground. | ||
+ | - Use [[http:// | ||
+ | |||
+ | If all of the conditions pass, you can assume that the system is good for farming, whether that is mining, huffing or ratting. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Note that the safety of a wormhole system that is connected to another high traffic system can be compromised very easily. If you can put a scout on the only entry you have searched, you can manage the risk easily. | ||
+ | |||
+ | *There are multiple schools of thoughts on how a wormhole opens up to the other side. Some believe it will have a chance to open to the other side once the wormhole has less than fixed life left, while others think it will not open if it was never interacted by warping to it. This guide is written based on an assumption that the wormhole will not open by itself if it was never interacted with (e.g. initiating a warp to it). | ||
