View source for Wormhole space

{{Wormhole Links}}<onlyinclude>'''Wormhole Space''', also known as the Anoikis Galaxy, is a collection of semi-charted systems full of opportunity and danger. The discovery of [[Sleepers]], an ancient Artificial Intelligence that dwells within Wormhole Space, led to groundbreaking new technology which in turn enabled the creation of [[Strategic Cruisers]]. Wormhole Space (W-Space, or J-Space because all wormhole system names consist of a J followed by 6 numbers) is lawless and has no CONCORD presence, Empire oversight, or Sovereign Alliances.</onlyinclude>

== Wormhole Space Characteristics ==
Wormhole Space has roughly 2600 known systems, each classified as one of six levels. These are commonly referred to as C1, C2, C3, C4, C5 or C6. They represent how entrenched the Sleeper occupation is and how strong the system effects (see below) can be. Additionally, 100 of those systems are classified as [[Shattered Wormhole Space]], i.e. they contain only shattered planets and no moons.

Wormhole Space has no Stargates or Stations. Prior to the release of Citadel, anybody choosing to live in W-Space had to do so out of a [[Player Owned Starbase]] and accept that [[Wormholes]] will be their sole means of interstellar transport. The new player-owned [[Citadels]] are replacing the functionality of the old POS system, and have given corporations a new avenue to make and defend their homes. [[Thera]] is a unique wormhole system that has 4 Sisters of Eve stations and a number of special properties.

Visually W-Space is surrounded with cloud-like nebulae, partially blocking vision into the reaches of space. It is believed that Anoikis resides in a dense Nebula, which in turn provides necessary physical criteria for the abundant resources which are considered rare or non-existent in New Eden.

Local chat in W-Space is different from K-Space. You or any other players will only show up in channel if you're actually chatting. Otherwise they simply won't show up. You will continue to show up in local chat after you've typed, until all other players witnessing your presence have jumped system or logged off. Therefore to see who's in system you need to use scouts and [[Directional Scanner Guide|D-Scan]]. Even then a cloaky ship won't be noticeable until it decloaks or logs off.

=== Exploration Sites and Cosmic Anomalies ===
Exploration sites in W-Space are different from K-Space. They are inhabited by [[Sleepers]], which provide the materials to build Tech 3 Ships ([[Tactical Destroyers]] and [[Strategic Cruiser]]). Bringing a [[Dreadnought]] or [[Carrier]] into Anomalies, Data or Relic sites will spawn additional battleships in Class 5 and 6 W-Space systems. These spawns called [[Capital Escalations]] drop decent amounts of loot, allowing you to make ISK without completely finishing the site. Only two Capital Escalations can be triggered per capital type, totalling at four. All sites despawn three downtimes after they've been activated (initiated warp to). If a site isn't completed it will despawn on the fourth downtime after its activation. Escalation waves will regenerate after every downtime so it's possible to keep on farming a site for days.

Ore sites are anomalies that contain asteroids which can be mined. In higher class Wormholes the sites can contain enough ore to keep a dozen Hulks busy for days. An ore site can contain every known ore and is lightly guarded.

W-Space classes C1-3 also contains the same Data and Relic sites that spawn in [[Nullsec]]. These do not have any rats, Sleeper or otherwise. However unlike standard W-Space exploration sites, the hackable containers explode if your hacking attempt fails too many times.

=== Cosmic Signatures ===

Cosmic Signatures need to be probed down. They come in 5 types:

* Gas - These Sites will contain gas clouds, which can be harvested through a Gas Harvester. The gas is needed for [[Tech 3 Production|Tech 3 production]] and is lightly guarded. See [[Wormhole Gas Sites]] for more details on this.
* Data - Data Sites will contain locked containers, containing items like datacores, which can be unlocked through [[Hacking]]. Sometimes there will be a Talocan ship wreck, which can be salvaged and will drop ancient hull sections for Tech 3 Ships. The sites are heavily guarded and can be escalated by capitals, unlike their K-Space counterparts.
* Relic - Those sites will contain ancient relics in containers, which have to be opened through [[Archaeology]]. Ancient relics are needed to generate T3 blueprints through reverse engineering. Relic Sites are heavily guarded and can be escalated by capitals unlike their K-Space counterparts.
* Wormhole - Not guarded by [[Sleepers]], though it may be guarded by players. Unknown sites always indicate a Wormhole location, said wormhole will not spawn in its destination system until a player jumps through it. While it is by no means a guarantee, avoiding jumping wormhole signatures significantly reduces the chance that you will find yourself sharing the system with other players. It is worth noting that if a wormhole is opened towards you (your side is K162) the connection has been certainly established on both sides.

=== Other Activities ===
==== Production ====
W-Space has a structural advantage only in one area of production. This is unsurprisingly [[Tech 3 Production|Tech 3 production]]. All the materials required for [[Tactical Destroyer]] and [[Strategic Cruiser]] (T3) hulls and subsystems originate from W-Space, giving W-Space a logistical advantage considering the buliness of the fullerene gases. It is also impossible to run a full T3 production line in high sec systems, further increasing this advantage.

For more information about Tech 3 Cruiser Production, you may start with the [[Tech 3 Production|Tech 3 production]] page.

In addition to Tech 3 production, processes that aren't allowed in highsec space can be found in W-Space. The most notable is [[Messing With Your Head#Better living through chemistry: Intro to booster drugs|Drug Manufacturing]], utilizing the often short travel times to trade hubs -assuming you aren't unlucky- to import the necessary materials and exporting or locally selling the manufactured end-goods.

== Anoikis Systems ==
=== Statics ===
Statics are a system variable. Each system will have a static (two for C2s and C4s), which will always have the same wormhole ID and lead you to the same class of W-Space or K-Space system as the previous one. When a static wormhole collapses a new static wormhole will spawn immediately, taking you to the same class of W-Space or K-Space.

==== Class 1 Systems ====
C1 systems are not very popular for harvesting or site running purposes. C1 statics only allow medium-sized ships, preventing anything larger than a battleship to enter. This makes rolling C1 holes fairly difficult. They are excellent for beginners. They're relatively safe, easy to run and require a low amount of skillpoints. A battlecruiser can solo the sites and a small cruiser gang will easily run the sites efficiently.

C1 systems have a niche role of being used by small Tech 3 Manufacturing Corporations. The low desirability of these locations and minimal assets make evictions less likely, although not unheard of. While some C1 corporations have reportedly tried to ward off intruders by building carriers, changes such as the Surgical Strike update and the introduction of Triglavian ships have reduced the effectiveness of capitals against mid-sized fleets and made this strategy relatively uncommon.

==== Class 2 Systems ====
C2 wormhole systems have a special role in low-class Wormhole Space systems. They offer slightly more ISK than C1's and can be soloed by low skillpoint Battlecruiser pilots. Their special property is that they come with two statics. These statics provide guaranteed access to K-Space and W-Space.

==== Class 3 Systems ====
C3 Systems are excellent for beginner wormhole corporations. They come with a K-Space statics of any kind, allowing you to pick your environment. C3's also offer good ISK for their difficulty, a battlecruiser gang with local rep or a little Tech 1 logi support will burn through the sites.

==== Class 4 Systems ====
Prior to the Hyperion expansion, C4 Systems were not very loved. C4 combat sites provide a little more ISK than C3 but require quite a bit more effort. C4s, like C5s and C6s, don't have statics to K-Space. However, unlike any other class, they never have any incoming wormholes from K-Space either, and never generate roaming connections to K-Space (other than M001 and Q003 small-ship wormholes). This means at least a two-jump chain to reach K-Space. It is worth noting however, that C4 residents like the space they live in mainly because C4s are lower maintenance both on the capital and active player front. C4s also grant access to frequent PvP.

Since the Hyperion expansion in 2014, all C4 Systems have two static wormholes. Each wormhole leads to another system in W-space. The wormholes are always different types (so you can't have a C4 system with two C3 statics, for example). All combinations exist except C1/C5, C1/C6, and C2/C6. Additionally, while data exists for wormholes connecting C4 system to K-Space systems (S074, N290, and K329), no wormholes of these types ever generate.
However, wandering wormholes directly connecting to K-Space have recently started appearing, though rarely. This is only confirmed for High Sec space.

==== Class 5 Systems ====
C5 systems are the premium choice for most hardcore wormhole corporations : C5's are highly connectible to other C5's, giving the nickname "The C5 Highway" to such connections and chains.

==System Effects==
Certain W-Space systems have effects that change the nature of your ship's statistics and/or modules. These phenomena only affect capsuleer ships, so Sleepers or structures won't be affected. The buff bar (above your capacitor) shows the wormhole effect in game. Third-party websites related to wormholes typically also list effects.

On August 26th, 2014, with the Hyperion update, System Effects were rebalanced. All tables are updated with these new balance numbers.  [http://community.eveonline.com/news/dev-blogs/into-the-known-unknowns/ Dev Blog]

====Pulsar====
Pulsar systems are very powerful when utilized correctly. They provide large improvements to shield hitpoints and capacitor recharge time. They also greatly increase ship signature radii, enabling the effective use of much larger weapons than would be available in ordinary systems. Armor ships will suffer a resistance debuff, and should be used carefully or not at all. And finally, as a partial countermeasure to the capacitor recharge bonus (especially against capital ships), [[Capacitor Warfare|Energy Neutralizers and Noferatus]] are also greatly strengthened.

====Black Hole====
Black Holes are systems for enthusiasts of high-speed, long-ranged missile ships. These systems feature an enormous bonus to ship velocity, missile velocity, and targeting range, and a further penalty to Stasis Webifier strength, making it difficult to hold down a speeding enemy even if you can catch them. However, they also greatly increase the inertia of ships in them, making it much slower to accelerate, change course, or align to warp.

====Cataclysmic Variable====
Cataclysmic Variable systems are an interesting paradox. On the one hand, they enormously increase the strength of remote repair modules, and the capacitor volume of the ships using them. (And while they also slow capacitor recharge times, the larger increase in volume results in increased stability.) On the other hand, they also greatly reduce the strength of local repair modules, and remote cap transmitters. The result is a system type which encourages group play with either spidertanked ships or heavy logistics support, but forces the use of locally cap-stable logistics ships and discourages capital warfare.

====Magnetar====
Magnetars are among the most dangerous and sought-after systems in wormhole space. While they greatly penalize weapon accuracy and damage application, those penalties come as trade-offs for an enormous bonus to raw damage. Ships, both NPC and Capsuleer, die very fast in Magnetars.

====Red Giant====
Red Giants are very specialized. While their main bonuses may not affect many commonly-used modules, the large bonus to [[Smartbomb]] damage and range opens up several combat strategies related to using dedicated smartbomb ships to clear fields of enemies. The other major effects, [[Overheating|Overheat]] Effects and Overheat Damage, promote life on the edge (and training {{sk|Thermodynamics}}...), as overheated modules become far more powerful than they would be normally, but also far more likely to burn out.

====Wolf Rayet====
Wolf Rayets are partially opposite to Pulsars, penalizing shields, enhancing armor, and reducing signature radii to reduce the strength of large weapons. However, the most striking aspect of the Wolf Rayet effect is the unbelievably huge bonus to ''Small'' weapon damage. This damage bonus means that the rulers of Wolf Rayet combat are Frigates, [[Tactical Destroyers]], and Cruisers fitted with Rapid Light Missile Launchers (as Rapid Lights are also considered "small" weapons, and are one of the few weapons systems that can effectively damage extremely-small-signature Frigates and Destroyers).

As an aside, Wolf Rayet systems in general are not to be confused with the so-called C13 [[Shattered wormhole systems#Small Ship Shattered Wormhole Systems|Small Ship Shattered wormholes]],  which use C6-strength Wolf Rayet effects.

== Special wormhole systems ==

=== [[Shattered wormhole systems|Shattered wormholes]] ===
There are a small number of so-called 'Shattered' Wormhole Systems, which are special enough that they have [[Shattered wormhole systems|their own page]] describing them.

=== Thera ===
[[File:Thera.jpg|400px|thumb|right|A wormhole leading to Thera]]
With the introduction of the only named wormhole system [[Thera]], there are now wormholes that connect K-space and W-space to it. [[Thera]] has a number of connections, generally documented publicly at [http://www.eve-scout.com/ Eve-Scout].

=== Drifter Wormholes ===
[[Drifters#Drifters Wormhole Systems|Drifter Wormhole systems]] are galactic portal hubs, with each generally having around 50-70 connections to known space, a static C2 connection, and every Cosmic Signature in a Drifter Wormhole is guaranteed to be an incoming wormhole. The known space to Drifter wormholes are special in that they have a beacon called "unidentified wormhole" on the known space side, so they do not need to be scanned down from that side. They have unique wormhole signatures in known space:
* C414 leading to J200727 (Pulsar) - Conflux
* V928 leading to J164710 (Magnetar) - Vidette
* R259 leading to J174618 (Wolf-Rayet) - Redoubt
* S877 leading to J055520 (Red Giant) - Sentinel
* B735 leading to J110145 (Cataclysmic Variable) - Barbican
Inside the wormhole from inside the Drifter system has a normal K162 signature when opened and needs to be scanned down as usual, but is deadspaced, so can only be warped to at 80km. Drifter battleships guard these wormholes and attack anybody trying to pass them. The nature of these wormholes and the Drifter systems is still shifting and a mystery.

All five Drifter wormhole system effects are C2-strength.

Each of the Drifter wormholes also contains a single multi-room Combat Site (of different design in each system), which resets periodically, is patrolled by Sleepers and Drifters, and can be run (ideally with a small fleet) to obtain materials and produce the [[Medical boosters|Antipharmakon medical boosters]].

=== Other Unique Systems ===
* J1226-0 (C4) is the only wormhole system in the game to have a hyphen (and not 6 numbers) in its name
* J102834 (C6 Magnetar) is the only wormhole system in the game to have a named planet (its second planet, Eyjafjallajokull II, named after the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eyjafjallaj%C3%B6kull#2010_eruptions real-life volcano] which famously erupted in 2010).
* J005299 (C4) is occupied by Sansha's Nation with static connections to NS, C3 space, and C5 space. [https://wiki.eveuniversity.org/Shattered_wormhole_systems#J005299 Details]
* J010556 (C4) is a Pulsar occupied by Sansha's Nation with static connections to HS, C1 space, and C2 space.
* J011195 (C4) is occupied by Sansha's Nation with static connections to LS, C5 space, and C5 space.

== Misc ==
* Everybody loves Tech 3 Ships in W-Space because they provide the best efficiency/mass ratio which is important when jumping wormholes.
* An "eviction" is the act of an entity kicking another out of their home system. You might think of it as a SOV war, only in a single system instead of numerous regions.
* [[SuperCap|Supercapitals]] don't fit through wormholes. Don't try it.
* [[EVE University]] has its own [[Wormhole Community]]!
