 === Why should I huff gas? ===
-The equipment required to huff gas is extremely cheap, with a fit venture currently costing roughly 1.8 million isk. This will easily be made up in a few minutes of gas huffing, making huffing an extremely good return on investment. This makes it ideal for newer players who cannot afford more expensive ratting or mining setups to be able to make the isk they need to enjoy other aspects of the game.

 === What are the drawbacks to huffing gas? ===
-The gas harvesting skillbook represents a significant initial cost, with the skillbook going for roughly 26 million isk. The dojo does have a few copies on hand, but asks for donations to cover the cost of getting one. Additionally, gas harvesting in WHs requires that the WHs you find have gas sites in them, which can occasionally be hard to find. This makes the income stream more variable than mining K-space ores. Finally, the loss of ventures should be expected as you go about your WH huffing experience. They are cheap, so don't get too attached!

 ==== Gas Huffing Procedure ====
 Follow the other guides in the WH life guidebook for scanning down a WH, once you have found a gas site that you want to huff, grab your venture and get ready to go!
+=== What's the catch? ===
+WH gas huffing has some unusual risks. Local doesn't exist, so it is hard to tell when someone is hunting you. Finally, the WH site will spawn rats at some point after 12 minutes. These rats are EXTREMELY mean, and will quickly kill your venture if you are not paying attention. The idea is to warp in, huff as much gas as possible, and then leave as the rats show up. If you know how to clear sleeper rats, you can clear the rats and return to finish huffing. If you don't (or can't) you can then carry on to the next gas site!
 === The Fit ===
 The venture fit should be cheap and effective. A good starting point is:

 === Huffing the gas ===
+So you have found yourself a nice WH gas site and you are sitting ready to go in your venture. There are 2 things you need to do.
+  - DO NOT WARP YOUR VENTURE TO AN ORDINARY PERIMETER RESERVOIR
+    - It has turrets that instantly alpha your venture so huffing in it is extremely dangerous unless you have cleared the turrets.
+  - Get a timer pulled up. As you hit warp, start the timer. You have 12 minutes.
+  - Light your MWD, start burning towards a cloud. As you draw into range, target it.
+  - Once you get close to the cloud, start huffing. Manually pilot your venture into the cloud and stop in the center (as seen in [[http://imgur.com/a/cBj4a|here]] ).
+    - The cloud will decloak enemies, and give you a chance to escape. [[http://imgur.com/a/1ekyB|Get in the cloud!]]
+  - As the clock ticks towards 12 minutes, select a celestial and prepare to warp out.
+  - Once the rats spawn GTFO!
+=== Congratulations, You have huffed gas! ===
