I was relocating one of my characters to another station to seed new markets in when i was reminded about how easy it is to fly around New Eden in the huble shuttle.
If you are like me, the idea of flying outside of High Sec fills you with dread.
But, Eve is not Eve if you don't at least poke our nose outside of High Sec and eventually you may need to set up shop outside of High Sec to make your billions.
It took me a while to work this out but the easiest way (for me anyway) to fly from highsec to an NPC station (or any accessible station) in Low / Null sec is to fly the boring old starter shuttle.
Any player can fly any faction's shuttle.
They are the only ship that are naturally immune from warp bubbles.
Let that sink in.
Base time to warp is 2.22 seconds which, with skills of Evasive Manoeuvring and Spaceship Command, can be brought to below the critical 2 seconds. Mine is at 1.73 seconds.
They only have 10m3 cargo - but still, can carry blueprints et al in that. For sure, they can be caught in gate camps with smart bombs. So i only use the shuttle to move myself from Point A to Point B rather than haul fancy pants blueprints on the cheap. And when i am in systems that look crowded in low/null sec to don't fly directly from gate to gate.
So far. this has never failed me.
