At first glance, New Eden is a complex mess of points. In addition to that, jump gates often don't connect to the closest systems. There are many arms and dead ends, and a number of highways - routes that are particularly short for the distance they cover. There are also high sec chokepoints: Systems that you need to pass through in order to travel between two given high sec systems without leaving high sec. Since the ingame map arranges systems by their coordinates, some of these relations can be hard to see, but they are useful to know for pilots in the high-sec trading or hauling businesses.

== The (former) ring topology of high sec empire space ==

Line 56:

You might assume that Lowsec would extend in a contiguous ring, surrounding the High Sec systems. Unfortunately, there is no such Low-Sec Ring. You can however, travel a low-sec pipe from one of the Faction Warfare (FW) areas to the other. The pipe itself is usually not very active for PVP, however there can be interesting solo PVP content. To find the pipe, just go to any FW system and set your destination to a system in the other FW area, prefer Less Secure. For best results, try a route between Kamela and Tama. The resulting route will bring you through many low-sec systems and can be a very profitable and enjoyable roam.

This pipe is along the west side of New Eden. The eastern pipe is broken up by several high-sec jumps, and must be mapped manually.

== Null sec connections ==

There are several connections between empire space and null security space. While these connections can be avoided by [[Jump drive]] equipped ships, routes to some of them ~~become are~~ trafficked and are often gatecamped.
