| ===Miners should control only one character, and be prepared to do opponent research on the fly.===
| |
| Pilots in low- and null-sec and in wormhole space need to learn a lot more about other pilots flying in their system than high-sec miners typically do. For example, when we see an unfamiliar character in Local, we nearly always:
| |
|
| |
| *Right-click on their name, "Show info", and check their security status, employment history (which gives their character's age) and bio;
| |
| *Search for their name on a public killboard like [http://zkillboard.com zKillboard] or [http://eve-kill.net EVE-Kill], to see whether they have a history of aggression against PvE pilots, to try to determine what kinds of ships they fly, and to see whether they are associated with any other pilots in system; and
| |
| *Use D-Scan to try and determine what they're flying now.
| |
|
| |
| Even though your Overview is set to tag pilots with negative security status, it is '''not''' safe to assume that pilots with positive security status won't aggress you. Low-sec pirates often repair their security status regularly for exactly this reason—to give you the false impression that they are friendly.

| |
| ''A good introductory assignment: Search a public killboard for the low-sec system that the FC has assigned for the op. What sort of ships have been killed there recently, and by whom? How were the ships fitted? The killboard won't give fits for the victors' ships—but can you find the victors' fits among their past losses?''
