Luckily I scanned the wormhole until I found the exit into low-sec so I can get out of the wormhole. The problem is that I was mining inside the wormhole and had a ton a rare jetcans I was hauling back. Now I'm in 0.1 space with nothing more than a badger and level 1 mining laser. It's 30 jumps to get home.


Here is my questions:

1. Wormholes can close on you!?!
2. When I exit into low-sec space the wormhole is still open on this end. Since the low-sec end is closed does that mean this worm-hole now leads to nowhere?
3. Any tips on how to get back safely?

If it's lowsec then warping gate to gate is your only real option as you can not use bubbles in lowsec space (do you know what bubbles are?).

You've gotten a taste of the excitement and the rush of life outside of Hisec.

Thanks for the advice. I made it back. There were a few gates that had suspicious "Wanted" pilots and one looks as if she jumped in after me but I made it. I just manually warped to 0m for every warp gate.

That was my first trip outside of high-sec lol.

:shobon:
For all the people that get murdered in highsec and wormholes, this warms my black heart.

I would assume (and my assumption is correct fro a later post of yours) that you found the wormhole from hi sec.

If you were able to get BACK INTO the wormhole from lowsec, you SHOULD have been able to scan down another exit to hisec.

Now, this s coming from a bigger noob than you, so please do not rely on my comments!

Not necessarily.

It could have been a WH with a static lowsec. And he happened to find it via a random HS WH (like an X702)

3/10 simply due to number of responses

And those suspicious wanted folks are simply Information services - feel free to flag them down and ask questions!

So for clarity... I have two accounts. A miner and this character. I used heron to look for hidden mineral fields and ran across the wormhole in 0.6 space. I went in the worm hole and scanned it to find minerals inside..... I then found the exit. After bookmarking all the major points I gave the locations to my miner who was jetcanning all the minerals. When I was done I was using my miner + this character (switched to a badger) to get my jetcans back to highsec. I didn't mine or scan with my badger :-)

The wormhole closed after my badger was in collecting more jetcans but luckily while my miner was at home base. Since I had the bookmark to the exit already my only way out was lowsec (0.1).

You've gotten a taste of the excitement and the rush of life outside of Hisec. There's more where that came from :)

Do a bit of research on wormholes and w-space in general -- there's a lot of information out there -- and consider coming back. Learn how to use d-scan and combat probes to find things quickly, and skill up to fly a Covert Ops frigate if you haven't already.

There is danger here, but there is also much more. Sometimes you'll be rolling in ISK, sometimes you'll need to clean the brown stains from your pod, and sometimes you'll be "blessed" with a brand new pod :)

Keep trying it, find a corp with friendly and helpful people, and you'll never want to go anywhere else.

Turns out, having never used dscan before and having no idea.. My range was still on the default 1000km...
