Killing pirate NPCs, or [[Rat#Rat|ratting]] as it is also called, is a way to earn ISK in New Eden. At the [[Null-Sec Campus|NSC]] it is mainly done in [[Asteroids and ore|asteroid belts]] or in [[combat sites]]. While you face off against NPCs in the same manner as in missions, it is not considered the same. See [[Syndicate Mission Running|this page]] for for more information about running missions at the NSC. Since combat sites can be found by probing, ratting have an overlap with [[exploration]], and players can benefit greatly by having a ship capable of scanning down signatures.

The NSC is located in [[Serpentis]] space, and the rats you will face while ratting are Serpentis NPCs. This makes it easy to prepare both the tank of your ship, as well as the type of [[NPC damage types|damage you should do]].

==Why rat at the NSC?==

Line 16:

Hunting and killing pirate NPCs (a.k.a. "rats") at asteroid belts or in combat sites is just one of many ways to earn ISK in EVE.

Since the majority of ISK is gotten through [[Loot#Loot|loot]] drop, and since loot is dropped at random, the reward for ratting is rather irregular. Some days you can be lucky and get hundreds of millions and even billions worth of drops, and other times you only get the standard [[EVE Lexicon#bounty|bounty]] from the rats and the from [[Salvaging|salvage]].

Still, this is a easy way to earn ISK, and the requirements for doing this can be very low, depending on what kind of ratting you do.

==Types of ratting at the NSC==

===Types of ratting at the NSC===

At the NSC there there mainly two types of ratting to be done: <br>

Clearing asteroid belts in a system, and hunting down and completing combat sites.

Combat sites can furthermore be divided up in [[Combat sites#Combat anomalies|combat anomalies]] and [[Combat sites#Cosmic signatures|combat signatures]].

Combat sites can furthermore be divided up in [[Combat sites#Combat anomalies|combat anomalies]] and [[Combat sites#Cosmic signatures|combat signatures]]. More on these below.

While [[Abyssal Deadspace|abyssal]] combat sites are also technically combat sites, they have very different rules and are outside the scope of this article.
