tiewan	Posted - 2007.02.15 05:15:00 - [1] I flew around all day in 0.0 and lowsec and didn't even get targeted once. How can there be risk vs. reward if there is no risk?
Xiator Z	Posted - 2007.02.15 05:21:00 - [2] Turn on your map, check the view option "ships destroyed in last 24 hours", head to the big red blobs in 0.0, and enjoy your bbq there.
EPSILON DELTA	Posted - 2007.02.15 06:31:00 - [3] 0.0 is generally empty, nobody camps a system only 1 or 2 people pass by everyday if you don't like using maps, you will know there's a camp when you wake up in a bubble good luck on your way back to empire -------------------------------------------------- Yes I'm a forum alt, what you going to do about it?
Dred'Pirate Jesus Amarr Imperial Warehousing Industries	Posted - 2007.02.15 06:52:00 - [4] Meh.. low sec and 0.0 camps are the big boogie man of Eve.. Granted you can expect a camp most times on the choke points to 0.0 systems but its not really the rule.. Make it past the chokes and your pretty much free sailing in 0.0.. Just make sure you use common sense and keep an eye on the local you'll be nearly as safe as you would be in Empire..

Just make sure you use common sense and keep an eye on the local you'll be nearly as safe as you would be in Empire.. No, you just caught them on an off day, there are camps everywhere in 0.0, even in the systems no-one ever goes to, and you will be wtfpwned by a T2 fitted BS or maybe even a dread before long. Stay in empire plz. ---------- IBTL \o/ Fix the ******* map! Privateers FTW

Stay in empire plz. A dread? WTF am I flying around in.. A POS? Trust.. Its safe as can be in 0.0 after your past the chokes.. But he is right in that there is always the chance of a random bubble camp but in my experience as long as you keep off the highways you will have clear sailing.. And they way to check the chokes is to make a scout alt and position it at the place you want to cross over to 0.0 and then use it to see if a bubble camp is on the other side.. If so then you just lost a shuttle and a no skill alt.. If its not camped.. Well.. Riches await for the bold..

Nope, no riches either, even if by some miracle you survive the innumerable gankers, you'll still be poor, miserable and ugly. True story. ---------- IBTL \o/ Fix the ******* map! Privateers FTW
Dred'Pirate Jesus Amarr Imperial Warehousing Industries	Posted - 2007.02.15 08:06:00 - [10] You must suck at eve then as its great iskies rattin in 0.0 and popping the odd unwary faction fitted npcer who thinks his alliance space is all safe and stuff..

In fact there are no rats or PvEers in 0.0, just lonely people looking for said nonexistant rats, continually getting podkilled back to empire. ---------- IBTL \o/ Fix the ******* map! Privateers FTW

AnxietyAttack Destructive Influence Band of Brothers	Posted - 2007.02.15 10:48:00 - [18] Edited by: AnxietyAttack on 15/02/2007 10:45:31 You are probably safer in 0.0 once past the chokepoint's than you are in empire. The map is your friend but once you start to head into alliance territory or warzone's, the chance of gate camp's, bubble's and patrol's jump's up dramatically. Kiss it
OfferoCanaanite	Posted - 2007.02.15 17:13:00 - [19] Edited by: OfferoCanaanite on 15/02/2007 17:11:37 Pls dont waste apostrophes like that. A homeless person could write for a week with the amount of apostrophes you have needlessly written.
Reandom Traas	Posted - 2007.02.15 17:59:00 - [20] I took an alt for a scenic tour through 0.0 and was thinking the same as you, not as dangerous as I thought. Then...oh..thats odd, I cant warp...oh...so thats a bubble...ohh..there i am back in empire in my clone. Went through about 30 jumps all in peace and quiet until that.
Christopher Dalran	Posted - 2007.02.15 20:36:00 - [21] TBH 0.0 space is actually MUCH safer than low sec ever could be. Its HUGE and is mostly empty, there are few stations and agents for people to collect around and alliances dont have the manpower to police an entire region of space (just the spots they travel thru and use) which leaves most of the area up for grabs. Just dont do something like plop down a POS in someone elses region, they might overlook you flying way off on your own but they arent going to let you set up a POS. Gatecamps are about the most booring thing you can possible do in eve, nobodys going to run a camp in the middle of nowhere. If you realy want to see a gate camp go into a system 1 jump from 0.0, theres going to be 1 or 2 systems that you MUST travel thru in order to cross over from empire to 0.0 and that is where you will find your gatecamps.
Derovius Vaden	Posted - 2007.02.15 20:49:00 - [22] I jumped through two gate camps in my shuttle. The funny part is that with WTZ, pirates don't have the patience to sit there and come up with new ways to molest EVE's many bottle-neck jumps.

Thanks for making yourself look like a fool, saves me the trouble. Beta? You must have been inactive for a very long time. Breaking out of a camp with a Shuttle is nothing to brag about. They are, for all intents and purposes, impossible to tackle, unless the pilot is a nub and decloaks first after jumping into the camp, then fumbles about with alighnment before finally attempting the warp. As far as WTZ into a camp, Shuttles pop easily if you have the right fitted ship in the flight path

Same could be said for anyone whose a victim of piracy. Everything benefits the victim.
Maxine Blade	Posted - 2007.02.17 00:40:00 - [30] Selling Cyno services to get into 0.0 and bypassing the gate camps. Eve-mail me in game. Current cost is 4mil ISK base. 500k extra for each frig, 1mil for a cruiser, 2 mil for Industrials. 4 mil for Freighters. I only allow a maximum of 4 Frigs or 2 AFs, or 3 Cruisers, and as many Industrials or Freighters as you want. Great way to make a living :)
