Players do not need to have exact answers to these questions, but a reasonable understanding of the steps ahead when planning an operation is helpful for managing PI successfully. | Players do not need to have exact answers to these questions, but a reasonable understanding of the steps ahead when planning an operation is helpful for managing PI successfully in a challenging Nullsec environment. | ||

While there are minimal recommended skills in [[Skills:Planet_Management|Planet Management]] and for PI in Nullsec | While there are minimal recommended skills in [[Skills:Planet_Management|Planet Management]] and ship utility for PI in Nullsec, players will find greater success, increased margin of error, and higher survival rates by further advancing core navigation and defensive skills. | ||
The recommended PI skills below will allow single character to run operations on five planets, with the advanced PI skills permitting a sixth planet and advanced ([[Planetary_Commodities#Tier_4_-_Advanced_Commodities_.28P4.29|P4]]) production. The recommended ship skills will enable piloting the standard E-UNI WH/NullSec Epithal fit, and the advanced ship skills will increase both the survivability of the Epithal and the amount of PI materials that it can carry. | The recommended PI skills below will allow single character to run operations on five planets, with the advanced PI skills permitting a sixth planet and advanced ([[Planetary_Commodities#Tier_4_-_Advanced_Commodities_.28P4.29|P4]]) production.

* '''Other T1 Haulers'''. It is strongly recommended that pilots do '''not''' use other [[Industrials|T1 haulers]] for regular PI activity. If there is a recurring need to haul extracted resources or final products to or from planets, then the character should be flying an Epithal. | * '''Other T1 Haulers'''.

* '''Freighters'''. The safest way to move large quantities of goods out of Nullsec is in a [[Jump_Freighters|Jump Freighter]]. This is not recommended for the average player, given the enormous skill, time, and investment required. EVE University's NSC often offers a [https://forum.eveuniversity.org/viewtopic.php?f=293&t=121063 shipping service], which members should seek to use. | * '''Freighters'''.

* '''Any racial shuttle'''. [[Shuttles]] are passively immune to [[Interdictors|bubbles]] and have a rapid time-to-warp. As some PI activities (importing or exporting from POCOs, for example) involve being present in space and in the same system, a shuttle is a viable option for moving between systems with minimal risk. | * '''Any racial shuttle'''.
