== Daily Activities, how to keep them safe. ==

So, You've found Your system, set up a POS, moved the ships in, You've done all required logistics, and you have supplies that will last for a while. You're ready for action. What now? Well, as I said already, there are number of activities you can do in Your System, such as Mining, Harvesting Gas, Killing Sleepers, Running PI. But first You need to learn how to keep yourself safe while doing those. You need to keep track of things, and You need to know Your surroundings. First thing You'll always do from this day on, is:

Line 223:

After You are done with each site, bookmark the wrecks as you would do with mission wrecks. Come back later to salvage them or have someone following you in a salvage dessie. Always keep aligned when running sites, and always, for the love of god, check the damn directional. It's very important, if you see any ship that is not supposed to be there, even for a split second, warp out, get to safety. Go to the POS and investigate. Don't start asking in Corp chat who that was, just leave. Believe me, I make a living from killing people like you, don't be stupid and just warp off. There's no fleet that can't be ganked in W-space. Even if you are running a Class 6 anomaly in battleships with logistics support You cannot feel safe. Someone can and will come to gank You, as shown here: [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_RBMK-dqqIc Youtube - Class 6 Wormhole Gank]

'''Perimeter''' sites are generally Low difficulty. '''Frontier''' sites are generally Medium difficulty. '''Core '''sites are generally High difficulty.

For Class 1-2 expect to see Perimeter sites. For Class 3-4 expect to see Frontier sites. For Class 5-6 expect to see Core sites.

Gravimetric, Ladar and class 5 Radar sites are exception from this; also named sites (The Line & Solar Cell for example) do not fall under this convention.

=== Mining  ===

Gravimetric sites in W-space often spawn rare Ore that cannot be found in Highsec or even Lowsec. Those are Arknor, Bistot and Crokite. Always mine those first. They are the most profitable. Use cheap mining barges such as Retrievers and Covetors. They are affordable and won't ruin You if you loose them. Everyone in W-space will gank a mining op if they see one, so when mining, always make sure that there are no incoming wormholes in Your system, always watch directional, or even have a scout at any wormhole exit. You cannot mine aligned, but You can make it a bit harder for someone to find you. Unlike anomalies, that can be scanned down without use of probes, Grav sites have to be probed down. Keep an eye out for probes. Combat probes especially. Try not to use jetcans for mining, as they can be bookmarked to provide warpins on You. Haul in a cheap industrial ships, as often as possible. Don't use an Orca for picking up ore. Orcas draw attention of gankers.
