The Newbies Guide to Mining During Wartime

The Newbies Guide to Mining During Wartime

Rough Draft

Okay, so you are not out there tackling or shooting at live enemies yet.

Maybe you are at that spot in your first couple of months (me!) where its going to be days for you to train in what you're really interested in doing.

Or just maybe.. all you have thought about your entire life is being a miner and this war is just cramping your style while you are trying to build your empire.

Whatever the case may be, you can mine during wartime if you are willing to do some pretty basic things. Personally, I find mining during wartime to be much more interesting and engaging as I am paying attention to more defensive things while staying focused on mining details.

Most importantly -- this is your part in the war effort to not end up being a rescuee.

Hello. Its War.

If you are new, this means you have a free-to-attack target painted on your back for anyone on the other side, even in hi-sec, even at your home base where your took the classes and told that cool person in local what belt you were mining in so they could come hang out with you in your awesome new retriever. More on information security later.

A experienced capsuleer with the right techniques, weapons and timing will be able to take you down before you can warp away, period. So accept right now you might die by doing this, its war.

There are usually pilots actively engaging in a campaign around you. They have to leave their posts to come to the aid of miners who aren't paying attention to the fact that..it's war. This could spread out forces and take away resources from the war that may be needed to resist much more threatening forces than the rogue coming after you.

Things to Know

First of all, you must read the WSOPWartime_Standard_Operating_Procedures. Everything else is just advice, you can be the judge of whether its good or not. Judging the WSOP is irrelevant, you only follow it, its there for our safety. - Fleet Up - PVE Mining - Mumble On - D-Scan - Resist the Retriever - Use Ventures or Procurer --Procurers are the cheapest and fastest barge, smaller hold but same throughput. Ventures are good too/different scales of economy

-more on shields/propulsion boosts -more an watching your load and pre aligning to jump - survey scanners! - do I arm myself? - mining drones vs fighting drones, loot and run
