If you find yourself in a gate camp after going through a gate, and you are in a covert ops cloaked ship, you can survive as long as you keep your cool and properly assess the situation. If they have a HIC/DIC, and the bubble is not up, expect a delayed bubble. If they have a fast ship there, expect a decloak attempt. To escape a decloak attempt, orient your camera toward a perpendicular line away from the decloaker (Try for a 90 degree angle). Double click in space to break gate cloak, hit your MWD and then immediately hit your cloak. Your MWD will cycle while you are cloaked, launching you away from your last known location, causing the decloak to fail. If the bubble goes up, don't worry, go the shortest route out of the bubble, and warp to a celestial. If the bubble doesn't go up, warp to a Celestial ASAP before the decloaker can try for a second attempt.
If you run into a properly setup cloaky trap, you will probably die. Welcome to nullsec. We lose ships a lot. Get a second account to scout. Join a corp and share intel on the local area and gate camps. Nullsec is a lot more "harsh" towards inexperienced pilots. Get a bunch of rifters that you can afford to lose. Treat every person in local as hostile and active. Treat every gate as if it had a drag bubble on it and a gate camp on the other side.
Going lone wolf in nullsec will be hard, because teamwork is encourage in such harsh conditions that we are used to. Intel channels, home defense fleets, jumpbridges, perimeter gate camps, all of these things require other people. If you want to live out here, be prepared to put more effort into it than you would in highsec. The reward will not be that great, as income is generally **** for the risk involved. But if you want to experience all that EVE has to offer, and to live in space driven entirely by players, this is the place to be. |

There is plenty o' planets in Empire space, and you can make a great living in EVE without ever going to Null sec.
To all that bookmarking jump here jump there I am so leet because I can evade a warp bubble sometimes, get over yourselves. All you know is how to make a tedious game more tedious. The OP did what the majority of what you said and he still got blown to bits. The best way to travel in Nullsec is with the biggest blob. Always has been. Always will be.
Yes, because big blobs don't attract other blobs to kill them.
Are you stupid? The best way to travel through nullsec is carefully. Removing bubbles doesn't reduce tedium, it reduces the amount of interaction between players. Nullsec isn't highsec. We are the frontier of society. Bring your blanket and a gun. |
