 If you are exploring, you will occasionally find a WH signature. These signatures must be scanned down to 100% before you can warp to it. Once warping you will land a small distance off the hole itself. Before we jump into the hole, there are a few steps that we need to take. If you would like, you can either bookmark the hole and warp to a safe, or you can cloak up near the hole while you take care of this.  If you are exploring, you will occasionally find a WH signature.

-  - Bookmark the hole itself by right clicking on the WH and then select "Save Location." This will come in handy if you need to make multiple trips to the hole. If you are a casual explorer operating on your own you can use any naming convention you like. Members of Spoopy Newbies use a specific naming convention to help us navigate between multiple holes, which can be found in [[public:corps:spoopy-newbies:newmemberguide| here]].  +  - Bookmark the hole itself by right clicking on the WH and then select "Save Location."

-  - Open tripwire on your In-Game Browser (IGB), and log into your account. If you do not have an account, you can set one up for free. Once logged in, ensure that the two arrows on the top of the window are orange so the program knows to follow your path and create a map for you. If you are feeling really fancy, you can select the gear on the top right of your screen and then add yourself to a mask (BNI members should use Brave Collective" mask). This lets you share your work with others! Minimize Tripwire (Don't close it!)+  - Open tripwire on your favorite browser, and log into your account.

 Additionally, you should look at any environmental effects present in the hole. Some WHs have a status effect for all ships in the hole that change how they tank, or make them do more or less damage with certain weapon systems. Mousing over the status effect in tripwire gives a summary of the effects.  Additionally, you should look at any environmental effects present in the hole.

-If you are thinking of running combat sites, it is a good idea to check Dotlan for the hole and see how active it is.
