      C1 are not worth ratting... wtf
      there's only 1 combat site
      and sometimes data/relic unsecured sites. That isk is literally lower than doing L4 missions
      C1 wormholes are for Pi and Industry (Mining Ore and setting up POCOs and drrills for Moon Mining)
      i literally live in c1 atm, and have other c3's wh's with my few mates.
      Yeah theyt are def not worth it for combat... like i sayd C1's are mining and Pi.
      mostly there's little connection into it , so its relatively "safe" to even afk mine...
      throw up a mobile warp disrupt and afk mine in a retriever
      salvage is completley pointless as its only 1,1-1,2mil
      lol you gonna rekt in a Perimeter Camp with frigate. i resulted in using light drones, cuz hammerheards just get shredded from the npcs , so you can imagine how hard the ships will hit frigate
      using anything larger than light drones requires remote armor reppers to keep them alive , getting hammerheads popped so much, the cost of drones will be as much as the sites earn lol, if u dont micro them hard
      lol @ low dmg... Praxis in 50% shield down , every single time (since i dont bother turning on shield boosters , cuz free repairs in astrahus)
      c1 combat site and c2 combat site difference is very small, but rewards are way higher in c2... well i couldnt tank them in Gnosis , tried to seal other ppeople wh sites :D (i maybe misread and went to c3 and c4... had to warp out 3 times with Gnosis) ...
      but c1 is pretty decent to learn how wormhole space works indeed.... what the classaifcations are...
      whjat Designations lead to where etc... if u dont bookmark returns... you literally will get lost in space..... :D
      ive literally memorized my c1 designations :D that J244 leads to lowsec and can get to empire there.
      N110 will lead directly to highsec. K162 generic wh exit etc...
      new players need to learn these things....
      Or they will accidentally like go into c4-c6 and get fcked up :D

      @@Microphunktv-jb3kj In my experience with my Alpha, C1 are worth more then C2. I've got a Brutix fit that that can run C1 sites faster then anything I can get out of a C2. I found the incoming DPS in C2 and the time to kill the rats vs the value of loot to be less. Loot/hour for me was noticeably better with 'less risk' in C1. The trick to C1 is to bliz them as fast as plausible where my bottle neck is waiting for the MTU. So think not high sheet dps, think anti frig BC. Run a dual 150mm with tracking/webs. Oh, and I tested a lot of other BC's, this ones the best.
      The only way I figure running C2 would be better would be buying ships multiple times more expensive. Really pushing what Alphas can fly as you got to put the ISK into the ship to which I think the ISK/RISK ratio is not worth it.

    old video comment, but I was just looking at this as an experiment. With this particular fit, it is actually CHEAPER to use shadow serpentis membranes (at least at time of writing) by quite a lot compared to T2, for some stuff T2 is NOT the cheapest option. It also helped me get more CPU out, because with some other changes I made it was very close.

    As usual, I love your video. I have a request for one if you have the time and inkling. I have several filaments from various sources but have no clue what to do with them. Can you help please?

    • @mellogo1d191
      @mellogo1d191 Рік тому

      Basically there are a couple of different kinds of filaments. Some take uou to abyssal dead space. These are called tranquil/calm/agitated/chaotic etc. these will take you into an arena where ALL of the enemies must be killed before the 20 min time limit expires. If you fail these then you die - this includes your capsule. I’d advise you to start with tranquil ones which are the easiest.
      Other notable filaments are the noise and signal needle jack filaments which take you into a random null sec system. The noise supposedly take you to a quieter system whereas the signal ones take you to a busier system. These can be useful for getting into null sec for exploration purposes.
      The other notable filaments are the pochven ones. These will normally have names including a clade name in them. These can be useful for getting out of null sec in a hurry and back to the safety of hi sec by then using a different filament known as a glorification filament.
      Hope this helps..?!

    • @lonniefennel4024
      @lonniefennel4024 Рік тому

      @mellogo1d191 so, how does one use the filaments? Now I understand what they do and thank you for that. The only problem left is where does one use them? Can you just undock and use one after a certain distance or something like that, or do you use wormholes for the location? I've never used one so I am very much in the dark. Come to think of it, I don't recall them being in game when I tried Eve several years ago.

      I Have no idea how to do a T2/T3 Abyssal on a ship I can fly, did a T2 electrical in a Caracal, got insta deleted by 2 ships sitting over 60Kms away couldn't even reach close enough to target lock. My friends told me I have to do a spiral maneuver but I was too demoralized to re-fit and try.
      I dunno if I can do C3 WH on my Drake. You have to be trained for everything efficiently, have to do everything efficiently otherwise you're just wasting ISK instead of making it.
      Made more isk day-trading in Jita so far than anything else and I don't even have decent trade skill. All the cool ships require proper skill plan and training and they'll take months.
