We've had Bay 12 corps in the past. Fun, but they tend to be short lived for whatever reason.

Could be something to pull me back into the game. Not played for ages but I have the skills to run a corp. Corp first before alliance planning, Individual corps should be named after forts rather than roles, we would know which is better at what but outsiders would not.
Speaking of which, the only way aside from getting the entire population of bay12 to get the manpower to stake a claim on null sec would require outsiders.

I actually used to live in WH space. Helped setup and man a POS tower (actually I was the only guy in the corp who could actually anchor the gun turrets). Was kinda peaceful.

logged in to find the C2 is still abandoned. scanned the remaining signals to find just a bunch of gas, a sleeper relic site and more connections.

one of the holes from yesterday disappeared so i used the new one. ended in another C2 with a lot of sites. found 2 data and 1 relic. i earned in total 12 million from those because i couldnt hack some of the
high lvl containers.

total from the expedition was 26.4 million or so. with a large ancillary shield transfer BPC among other things.

i reached for the nearest high sec exit.

Get your alpha clone setup with a Venture and gas mining abilities. Two gas harvesters on a single Venture, in a wormhole system that stayed clear the entire time you were scanning and hacking cans in it, and you'll get rich fast.

Wormhole gas-huffing is literally just grabbing money and dragging it right into the cargo hold. Just remember the following rules:
1. DSCAN
2. DO NOT GO TO ORDINARY PERIMETER GAS SITES.
       2.1 Know what site you ARE going to. If the sleepers have super-long-range points or spawn as soon as you arrive,
3. You have about 15 minutes before the rats spawn. Eyes up when gas-huffing, and warp at 100 first to make sure the gas is still there (Know your gas values, and get the more expensive [per unit volume] gas first) and the rats haven't spawned.
4. Better safe and moderately wealthy than dead and very poor. (Leave before you lose your ship, completing one more cycle or filling the cargo bay is never as important as getting the gas out of the WH system)

i think im gonna settle in Jita for a bit while i skill up. i have the money to buy some of the exploration implants. but i'd rather spend some of the money in getting all the alpha minmatar skills i havent injected so i can finish filling this character.

You're going to skill-inject an Alpha clone?

That's kinda wasteful, unless you're earning really, REALLY good money, or have a desperate need of some skill(s).

If you're looking for data/relic sites in wormholes, your best bet is scanning for wormholes from lowsec or a low population area of hisec (read: a hisec island or simply very far from Jita/Amarr), as holes connected to the high pop areas of hisec will be picked clean and are also prime hunting grounds.

Stick your head in, scan every sig, run the pirate relic/data sites (personally I'd skip the data,, far less profitable) and then either move into a connected low class (c1-3) system or go back to k-space and search for the next wormhole on your route.  High class holes predominately connect to other high class holes, so heading into them would often be a complete waste of your time.

that's what i did. and i earned more from data than relic tbh. all those salvage materials have gotten pretty cheap. the stuff you find in data sites give a much better payoff. i mean, i dont cherrypick anything. i try to do the most i can from each site and then move on. cant be too picky when i cant even hack the hardest containers at least frecuently.

decided to organize another expedition while leveling shield skills. found a C3 red giant with 2 holes a relic and a data.

the data was garbage. only got 7 million because the rest of the containers were hard as fuck to hack.

made a total of 25 million or so from that hole. seriously fuck that defense system, too hard.

tried the other hole and was a C4. there was an onyx in scanner. didnt want to take any chances.

I really enjoy hacking.


Also, I really badly need a corp/alliance. I'd love to see a (Hopefully persistent) B12 one.

Hint hint, wink wink, anyone with corp-running skills.

decided to do a last expedition for the night. i found some holes but they moved me throught empire space. then finally found an unoccupied C3 with a data and a relic site. made 24 million in total from those and some other sites i found while searching for wormholes in high/low.

in a few days my wallet has already gone past the 100 million mark. i think im gonna change the rigs, add 1 data and 1 relic rigs, and instead buy the scan strength/deviation implants to compensate. i dont need so much scanning power i think.

oh and i found another serpentis warp disruption battery BPC. and a small armor repper BPC. 2x1 made my night.
