Ive been playing so long the best thrill i get out of eve now is takign a domi setup for scanning, cloaking, semi pvp ( one warp jammer) full compliment of various drones and a basic all round setup and off i set collapsing wormholes ( 30 minutes - hour ) and essentially floating around wormhole space and random 00 high sec and low sec finding and closing off and reopening womrholes
Maybe once a fortnight i do this with excess funds or a combat alt. Just setoff and attempt to find and interact with as many systems - the odd ratting or pvp exit to 00
Sounds a bit dull and boring with the odd bit of excitement ( traversing the wh every 3.5 minutesround) to get the mass up. Or scanning a chain of wh and collapsing em as i go looking for new fun exits. U can close 2 wormholes at once just by warping back and forward and double jumps
One time i got podded out in quick combat after 3 days, another time found some abandoned ships no scanners bc and haulers so shot em up got the loot. Came out with 200m after 3 days, anotehr time helped some random dude who was stuck. Made a new friend another time found an abandoned pos shot the mods and came out with 500m in loot. Another time got stuck for nearly 2 weeks.
Is there anyone else out there into this even once a month would likke to hear from u or am i a freak who has to much time on my hands and is so broed with half of eve that ive resorted to random adventures

Tonight involved starting off from amarr space high sec finding a pos with actives finding another wh they had collapsed it to one jump so i finished the job
Next system empty the new wh spawned to a c2 space found 2 mryms in there who once i pulled out combat probes cloaked or vanished thro a third hole one exit to minnie high sec which im closing off
Once i come back tomorrow will be attempting to find a new wh to somewhere else. Had one of the mryms asking who i was in local decided to ignore this as they didnt have me pinned down.
Now wh closed back in my current c4 system not much fun yet but watching tv one can just traverse every few minutes, basic domi cheap, no implants clone is set in case i foul up. ANd off u go

A few more observations, there are now more large and small scale pos deployments in wspace, matching up with a low sec drop in player numbers and 00.
Its harder to get into low sec and 00 from high sec wormholes even if u go via a c5-6 wh CCP dumbing this part down ?

i can confirm that i have a JOAT (jack of all trades) domi as well, and im flying it alot; mostly in low sec, where i travel from system to system, looking for good sites which i could exploit, be it hacking, salvaging, archeology, combat sites or whatever.
Its got everything fitted and doesnt even have to dock up to switch modules, its like my swiss pocketknife in space.

yes domis also good for running around low sec well unless u run into a blob camp but those with half of eve moving from low sec to wormhole space and the rest running back to empire. Most non fw areas are now clear

we must be a rare breed, i found a domi is a good ship can fit 3 guns, claoker probe launcher and salvager, good drone bay can fit all dps type drones.
3 cap boosters or 2 in the mid AB or MWD plus sensor booster, warp jammer webber or some other mid slot module depending on youre aims
Lows probably tank repper and some sort of other setup as needed. Rigs as u wish the main aim is to stay cloaked if need be , be able to scan, shoot with a moderate degree of success, collapse wormholes. Its an interesting adventure ive done a few writeups for various corps ive been in adventure of sorts. I know of only 2 ive come across in eve who at times focus on adventure thro space. If anyone else out there is doing it let us know

Ollobrains,
Thanks for posting this. I am becoming more and more interested in wormhole exploiting either by mining or Mag/Radar sites and am planning to setup a short term POS in one soon.
However as the Domi is my ship of choice anyway (missions for faction), I think I may fit one out and stick a low implant clone in one and do a bit of exploring as you described.
Maybe see you in W-Space sometime!!!!

good luck there in wormhole space, a pos is very doable ive seen 1 man up to 300 man corps in one the most i saw at once was about 40 ships in a class 5 system (player ships) looked like a busy little haven.
This thread is moreso focused not on static residency but moving around in stealth mode heck ive had some fun (NBSI) of course for corp - alliance. So ive had some interesting responses when ive found a red entity with their wormhole pos and a empire route and closed the route off on them. U can really create havoc that way esp if someone doesnt see u. Most would be smart to have alts within the pos system at all times but not always.
Been in a corp to that was permanent residents in wh space so u can teach youreself tactics as u go, and then have the awareness down the track if youre on the other side. But just grab a domi fit it however and go roaming. Each wh can be closed in between depending on mass 30 minites to 1 and a half hours with one domi ( keep passing thro use directional scanner be alert have a cloaker)
If youre a 00 ratter then u can start off in empire and if youre lucky find a nice quite back water system if anyone shows up get the wh down and if youre really lucky seal youre exit off 0 the risk is u get stuck in 00 side and then fun can begin.
Its risky but carries finding lost ships, having some fun and even meeting new peeps

I may not have explained it so well, I do intend on trying out the static residency soon, but your post has given me the idea to hoon around WHs (as you are doing) in a spare Domi I have for pure fun (and hopefuly some loots).
It sounds like a great time, which is why I play....

there can be boring periods where u have no targets around and have to collapse a wormhole link to get the lotto for the next one.
But as with gate camping in a way once u find youre quarry whatever it is or any other experiences thats when it all lights up on action stations

ok for those just getting into it just discovered this myself that if u have an active mwd-afterburner on it wil increase the mass of youre ship by 50% per jump so in a domi youre mass goes to 150m kg, allowing for quicker wormhole collapse Should speed youre average wormhole collapsing adventures up by 50% also useful for those residents in WH space seeking to close a hole with a disposalable scan-bs alt

You can use your domi for ice menlting too. And you don't even have to undock! \o/

lol. This 50m mass thing with an active ab or mwd ( 100mn on bs) is quite handy allows quicker exploration

Interesting, I discovered that a week or so ago and then just assumed I was a bit backwards and everyone must know about it. Perhaps it's not as widely known as I thought? It is useful, I agree.
Have you hit many class 1's, seeing as you say you enter your chains of WH's from highsec?

c1 systems are common but ... using a domi as my scan-combat-collapsing ship. I call it the lost in space setup. Its cheap it can kill all 00 and low sec belt rats, it would go ok in 1 v 1 pvp, it can scan and it can collapse holes quickly.
So if i find a c1 i cant go thro basically i find if im in a wh and it connects to a c1 ccp seem to have something in place that another wh will always spawn in system that doesnt go into a c1 so i havent been stuck as in per se but domis and the fits are cheap so self destrcut or log in another toon and come back is always an option

as a protest against the lack of high sec to 00 respawns and also the lack of variance ( ie each wh only outgoing codes always lead to high sec or always led to low sec) im going to go round and invite others to help collapsing all the dodgy holes remember youre 100mn ab or mwd to speed up the process. Useful for those with no implants, up to date clone and who have domis apocs etc almoust up on insurance u want to take out

wormhole system j122732
9 wormholes collapsed 9 respawns - 100% outbound to high sec ( so no other wormhole outbounds, no low sec no 00)
More randomness ccp why not and any plans to make it work properly
