I have an alt in fw for fun (explosions) and learning (not happened yet, still loosing every time) and it's all fun and all. But last week or so there's more often than not been a gate camp I can't survive. My frigate just don't align fast enough. So, the actual question is that is there anything I can do with it. Other than fitting stabs (not on option because I'm for fight, not running plexes) or moving?
Loosing cheap frigates doesn't bother me, but the fact that I can't get to my home base without loosing one does. It's more irritating than anything else.

Find a different path there are many, you are most likely taking the shortest path.
Or fit stabs then dock in a station in low and re-fit.
Or pay Black Frog to move your things to a station in Low-Sec that you can base out of, then just fly a shuttle to said location. "PvE in EVE is a trap to turn you into PvP content, don't confuse it for actual gameplay." Lipbite |

Why not fit the stabs and refit at your destination station? Warp and inertia stabs are cheap, I usually keep a full rack in the cargohold of any PVP ships (perhaps not T1 frigates). That being said, moving around the camp might be the best bet, esp. if you know they are using fast-locking ships. |

Thank you both. I think moving Is best option for me. I can affort black frog services when I need more ships so that's fine, but I'm still having one little problem. My alt is in Caldari fw so; how do I choose new base. I mean that can't dock in station if system is lost thing.

The above is all good advice. Another thing to do is to actually setup your clone, and haul ships into a lowsec system, since I've moved in permanently, I haven't had problems with them really. It's a bit annoying logistically at first, but it's well worth it. Now when I lose a frigate, I don't have to jump all the way back to the action from a trade hub and risk a gate camp. If possible, haul your stuff in right after downtime, minimizing the chances of a gate camp forming. For the Golden Goat! |

Quickest solution I can think of for that is just make an alt that can fly there to dock and move again via Black Frog, haven't been out there in a while but the Caldari used to have some strongholds that rarely flipped if ever, but that may have changed.

Thanks. I now know what to do, I'm gonna find that system that is most likely not going to be flipped anytime soon and move there. And then get my ships exploded. And I mean that. Fights are fun. Winning or loosing doesn't matter.

Find out where all the "cool kids" live in FW. Station yourself there and make friends with them. Then move your stuff in however you can. Or just buy from the market in some of these places (surely one of the stations has a decent market there).
As you become friends with the "regulars" you can maybe piggyback your supplies with their usual freightering efforts (most established FW corps/alliances have some kind of supply scheme in place). Just remember to pay a small "gas fee" so it does not seem like you are using them for your own selfish needs.
After that, live full time in low-sec and never look back. Change isn't bad, but it isn't always good. Sometimes, the oldest and most simple of things can be the most elegant and effective.
