Archive:Travel to Solitude: Difference between revisions

One question to ask yourself before heading out to Solitude is, do you see yourself wanting to come back to contiguous Hi-Sec regularly? If so, it is highly recommended that you first obtain a [[Jump Clone|Jump Clone]] and move it to Slays (or wherever you wish to return) before heading out to Solitude. Failure to do this may cause you to miss out on Corporate and Alliance events hosted at the University HQ since the route back can be time consuming and perilous.

As long as you don’t have any implants in your clone traveling to Solitude by “Pod Express” may be the simplest route. [[Clone#Locations|Change your medical clone location]] to Gravity Well in Boystin if you still have your once-a-year remote relocation available, and then self-destruct your pod.

The [[Solitude Coordinated Scanning Endeavour]] finds highsec-to-highsec wormholes (H2H) on regular basis. Entry and exit points for active WH’s can usually be found in the Project Solitude Exploration bookmarks folder. Notifications are being sent out via the Solitude.E-Uni [[EVE University Mailing Lists|mailing list]]. It is a good idea to join the list before you want to move to Solitude. Consider that H2H's can only be found if people search for them. So if you want to move visit the Solitude ingame chat channel and ask if someone has scanned recently. Lower quality connections (from highsec to wormhole space to highsec again or from lowsec to lowsec) are usually not shared via the mailing list but can sometimes be found in the [[WHC Mapper]] under the Solitude map. On average regular H2H's are found once a day ''if people scan all the time''. As this is an average it can easily happen that a few days go past without any H2H even though people are scanning.

Even if you don't want to move to Solitude right now it is a good idea to join the mailing list Solitude.E-Uni and use the next H2H to place a clone in Solitude. Thus you can easily clone jump to Solitude for fleets.

The low-sec route is a good option if you'd like to travel to Solitude in a shuttle or another cheap, fast ship.

For those brave enough to venture into null-sec, there are two possible routes through Syndicate to get to Solitude:

Thanks to the NullSec Campus a free jump ship service is provided between [http://evemaps.dotlan.net/map/Solitude/Boystin#sec Boystin - Gravity Well] and [http://evemaps.dotlan.net/station/PC9-AY_III_-_Intaki_Commerce_Trading_Post PC9-AY III - Intaki Commerce Trading Post] from there it is possible to utilize a second jump ship service to send items between [http://evemaps.dotlan.net/station/PC9-AY_III_-_Intaki_Commerce_Trading_Post PC9-AY III - Intaki Commerce Trading Post] and [http://evemaps.dotlan.net/station/Jita_IV_-_Moon_4_-_Caldari_Navy_Assembly_Plant Jita IV - Moon 4 - Caldari Navy Assembly Plant].   

* Obviously the service can only move items. You'll still need to either fly or clone jump yourself to Solitude. Sorry, but no bus services exist in EVE yet.

*Wormholes have a limited time and mass. As such, it might not always be possible for members to make good use of them. And the uni jump service can take some time and is at the user's risk. An alternative is to use a courier to move assets into the region. Although there are many courier services around, [http://black-frog.red-frog.org/jumps.php Black Frog] is probably the best known. Note though that using courier services can be a quite costly exercise. Black Frog for example, charges {{gaps|100|000|000}} ISK to move up to {{gaps|320|000}} {{m3}} from Slays to Boystin.

*Several E-UNI members routinely move materials into Solitude and may be willing to accept courier contracts. Pricing is typically negotiable. Ask in Soli chat or offers and requests if you are looking to move large volumes of items in or out of the area.
