So there you are, lost in the void that is wormhole space. Fear not, because there will be always at least one exit out (one wormhole is static and respawns as soon as it is closed).

If you answer yes to that question, there is hope in getting out, at least by yourself. If not, your options will be severely limited. With probes, simply find out another wormhole that hopefully leads into known space. It's best to find one that leads to empire space: you won't be shot on the way back. However, you must take what you can get. '''Make sure | If you answer yes to that question, there is hope in getting out, at least by yourself. If not, your options will be severely limited.

When probes expire they return to your cargohold. | ||

If you're willing to wait around and try to get some help, you can attempt to rely on the good will of your fellow passing capsuleers. Rename your ship to something like "Help, I am lost" and remain uncloaked (but always aligned!). Drop a can (even a bookmark can be used) and rename it with your character. Attempt to convo any pilots that are affiliated with a POS/named ship in system. Go ahead and use local. Your alternative is losing a pod, so although it's a long shot, this will sometimes work. | If you're willing to wait around and try to get some help, you can attempt to rely on the good will of your fellow passing capsuleers.

Those players want your loot, your ISK, the salvageable components from your wreck, your corpse... etc. They want anything and everything from you, including tears. One good idea is to set up good safespots (using bookmarks) in the hostile system and keep warping between them. It will be harder to probe you out and murder you horribly. If your ship is capable enough, go ahead and murder them yourself. Be very wary of anyone trying to sell you an exit, they have no reason to abide by their own agreement. | Those players want your loot, your ISK, the salvageable components from your wreck, your corpse... etc. They want anything and everything from you, including tears.

Sleepers are the inhabitants of those wormhole systems. They are pretty smart and strong. You should avoid them, the goal is not to chase them down, but to get out of the wormhole system. It's your call though, maybe you want to hunt them down for some quick cash. At any rate, just don't jump into their sites and you won't see one ever. If you're already down to your pod and feel like playing a nasty trick to whoever relieved you of your ship, go ahead and bounce through sleeper sites. They won't target your pod, but they'll target your pursuers. | Sleepers are the inhabitants of those wormhole systems. They are pretty smart and strong.
