What: Lowsec Exploration Social
When: Monday, 2022-07-18, 18:00 Eve time (2-3 hrs, open-ended)
Where: Form-up at Stacmon - The Quad
What exactly: We'll have a quick introduction to lowsec and talk about the opportunities for exploration and PvE in that space, then spread out into the systems around Stacmon to scan down signatures and run sites. If you've never been to lowsec, this is an opportunity to learn what sorts of ships to take there and how to stay safe. I'll also do a run-down of the recommended way to bookmark sites, including wormhole connections.
But whatever for: Doing this as a group is really efficient, since we can cover a lot more systems in a short time than each of us could do on our own. By collecting all bookmarks in the shared folder, we are then free to go after the particular sites we're most interested in. We also have an opportunity to provide intel on other pilots in the area and help keep each other safe. And, last but certainly not least, great companionship and a fun, relaxed time on comms!
Ships: Any T1 exploration frigate such as then ones from the Flight Deck contracts for the scanning portion. You are welcome to bring an Astero or a cov-ops frigate also, at your own risk of course. Further ships will depend on the sites you want to run. I'll have some loaners (gas huffers) available, and various fits from the Flight Deck contracts are also viable.
Comms: Lowsec Explo Social on-demand channel in Mumble - please have Mumble set up and ready to go, even if just to listen. (O.k. if you don't have a microphone or don't want to speak on comms, but being able to hear me and others is essential.)
