If you mine from a stand-still, as you would in high sec, you will be vulnerable to being scrammed and webbed by aggressors before you can warp away. On the other hand, if your ship is aligned towards a warp-out point, and moving at least 75% of its maximum speed, you can warp out immediately at the first sign of trouble.

On the other hand, if your ship is aligned towards a warp-out point, and moving at least 75% of its maximum speed, you can warp out immediately at the first sign of trouble. This means that constructing alignment [[bookmarks]] is an important part of wormhole mining. For ops that Antei FC's, he will supply you with a container of bookmarks at the beginning of the op, including bookmarks for the wormhole entry and exit, and some that are specific to the ice belt or ore anomaly. The bookmarks have a particular naming format, modeled after [http://www.agony-unleashed.com/wiki/index.php?title=Bookmarks Agony Unleashed's format], that looks like this: | ||

Miners will warp to their assigned warp-in point, and then always "Align To" one of the two opposing warp-out points at at least 75% max velocity. In case of danger, just warp out! In this scheme, miners are only vulnerable while they are reversing direction, switching between a "Up" and "Down" alignment bookmark because they have reached the edge of their mining range. | Miners will warp to their assigned warp-in point, and then always "Align To" one of the two opposing warp-out points at at least 75% max velocity.

Miners will jet-can ore, just as they do in a high-sec shared-can op, but cans will be immediately tractored by a central Mobile Tractor Unit, where they can be easily scooped by the fleet hauler. | Miners will jet-can ore, just as they do in a high-sec shared-can op, but cans will be immediately tractored by a central Mobile Tractor Unit, where they can be easily scooped by the fleet hauler. Cans are vulnerable to attack in WH space, so they need to be scooped quickly. As a result, don't worry about naming your cans. | ||
