New bro here. Hit my first 70 million isk container yesterday in a wormhole place! I was excited. 105 million between that and a data site in that area

A few more rules I've found useful when hacking: The rule of 7 - this is that opposite side thing. The core is usually 7 or more nodes away from the starting node, so don't go down dead ends that are less than 7 nodes long. This rule does not seem to hold for the shadow war sites though. Also this does not hold if you start in the center of the board; in that case it can be anywhere and is occasionally within 2-3 nodes of the start. Kill priority - suppressors first, then restoration nodes, then kill firewalls or AVs based on your coherence. If you have the ability to kill a node, especially if it's blocking a safe spot, kill it instead of taking a detour. Utility choices - vectors for suppressors, shields for AVs (or kernel rots if you can one-shot it after), kernel rots for restoration nodes, and self repairs should be used as soon as you get them. Highways - when you have a bunch of connected rule-of-6 nodes, take the shortest path through them because you can always use those extra safe nodes to run self repair or secondary vector utilities without risking revealing another defense.

o7 Aceface, happy to watch videos about exploration. May you find useful some things I would share here : 1) always bookmark +/- 1000km away from the site 2) bookmark the containers 3) orbit container at 1000m, avoiding to crush it or being blocked by urgent warp off maneuver 4) never slowboating between cans, unless you can afford the loss :) => warp in warp off to your safe spot Cheerz,

Your the reason I started playing eve! and I saw your name while in jita some time back. I got so excited that i sent you a message haha

new guys, also you need to dscan every cooldown, even in hisec (to build and keep the habit) , because t hat ONE time you dont...theres a strat dropping on you while you take a drink of coffee lol. dscan dscan dscan, like your pulse. ^_^

I use an Astero myself. Deadspace rep, DS MWD and a faction 3 strength scram. It reps as much as an SAAR but doesn't run out of charges. Aceface is too nervous in null, as long as you're not bouncing gate to gate, and check D-scan whilst hacking, it's not bad at all.

Eve out here trying to make minesweeper look deep.

Spinning your ship around a spinning thing = motion sickness, thanks^^

11:05 I encounter these sites all the time.. and rarely ever win. Although I've trained up to IV and V most exploration skills. Are these intended to be that hard?

What are you supposed to do after you complete that site? You go back through the wormhole and use another filament?

the system core is aways 8 nodes or more away from the starting point, unless you start in the middle, then the core will be anywhere

Exploration is really fun to do, until my hacking skills train up to max sometimes I fail a hack just down to stats

My best hacking tip is the Rule of Cargo Scanner 😂

I didn't know about the rule of 6. I just blow thru the nodes as quick as I can and attack the sentinels when they get in the way. Course I am fully skilled and equipped for this. i rarely fail, like 95% success rate. The real jewel in this vid is how you scanned down that data site in like 3 moves???

I tried going to null sec and hacking yesterday but i died to a gatecamper

ROFL great guide on how to fail nodes

Alone for the fact that he uses no cargo scanner he deserves a thumbs up.

Data sites and sleeper caches in High-sec are still worth lots of isk, and nobody will blow you up

Is it still true these days that relic sites are a lot better than hacking sites in general?

I always attack the virus nodes and 80% of the time I win.

I have never successfully hacked a single site after the tutorial. Idk why I'm so bad, but exploration isn't for me lol

Just get black glass implant and laugh at all the sites
