    A very good explanation of the mechanics! I would conditionally disagree with your statement of not worrying too much about non-combat probes, though. Especially if you're in j-space & as an example, let's say you're huffing gas in a Prospect and there's only 1 gas site in the system: it's just as likely that an Astero, Stratios or stealth bomber is using core/sister scanner probes to scan the sigs as any other type of ship, and once they scan that single gas site, they're going to immediately know where you are (in all likelihood; based on your ship) and can warp to your location. Sure, you have some time to prepare & warp off etc, but if you're in any type of site (sig) where it's "one of a kind" in the system, the safest action is to immediately dock up/cloak/warp off. This goes double for anomalies in my opinion - not only because they don't have to be scanned down of course, but because it's an early warning notice (again, being j-space specific here) that someone is in system.

      Oh 100% agreed and I probably could be clearer here. This was intended to essentially help those folks out mining etc in K-Space. In my Wormhole Survival series I do espouse the need to keep an eye on everything but very good points to raise!

    I very much appreciate your content coming into a 20+yo Eve Online as a brand new player. You do an excellent job of actually going deep enough into the topic to make it understandable, which ALOT of other people don't and assume there's already a bunch of "background knowledge". I will continue to scroll through your videos for the topics I would like to learn more about.

    I just started playing Eve Online for a few days and decided to stick with it and learn how it works and I am a bit overwhelmed.
    In the past I tried it but quit after a few hours because it is so big, now I figured out a few basics but after watching this video I feel that I know nothing 😢
    Thanks for the video’s and I will be watching a lot more to get to grips with the mechanics

      Welcome to EVE Online! I'd recommend running all of the Career Agents in your starting system (even if you don't think you'll like the playstyle, you may be surprised) as they're a great source of ISK, ships, and learning. From there, have a look at the AIR Career Program in game and try to find a good corp 😉 I've got videos on those things in the Catskull Academy playlist on my page

    Thanks for the refresher. I came here to remember how to see the cone moving around.
    By the way, slight correction. That "asteroid belt" you were scanning in the cone had a bunch of other celestial objects "tightly" packed together: 5 moons, 1 planet, 3 stations, and 1 asteroid belt all in one spot. So that mobile depot could have been at any of those though the asteroid belt is a likely place, it also could have been at one of the moons for some sort of moon mining reason.

After searching for almost an hour and not finding a single 0.4 system without other players (it was early morning EU and middle of the night US time), I settled for one where I only saw a bunch of miners who I guessed were bots. Well, after 5 minutes and two belts checked out, I was oneshot by some person in the middle of a fight against pirates. Immediately convinced me of never leaving HiSec again until I'm prepared to defend myself. I D-Scanned every few seconds with pretty much the settings recommended in this video, nothing turned up at any point. Not even the miners who I tried to stay away from as far as possible.

    A slight correction. Gankers do whant hit you hard and hit you fast. But they do not get out before Concord comes in. They will loose their ships to Concord. They are after two things in most cases. The kill mail and your loot. Ganker ships tend to be dirt cheap because they are made to die. The ganker is just going to jump into his next ship that is exacly the same and move on to the next target.

No one escapes from Concord in high security space, and if in fact the gankers somehow pull that off that is considered by CCP a violation of terms of service and an exploit. And culturally in Eve, players use the term "ganking" only for hisec. All other regions of space are considered fair game, and though killed you have not been "ganked", even if you are "ganged up" on by 10 ships or are flying an absolutely defenseless ship.

    (other than it's $$$ they don't want to spend) too bad ccp doesn't just have all the knowledgeable players like you and others with their respective expertise in whichever category do a few vids and put them all together for the prospective players to see at the start and or maybe even as they progress into the game, like say when you go to probe things, a video could pop up for a crash course like you did here- it would be cheap on the business side and more realistic and relevant to us new players.
    Well i prattled on likely for nothing, cuz we all know that kind of co-operation tween the $$$ people and the players will never happen

      Only way to know you’re being scanned is by paying attention to D-scan for probes.
      Presence of other ships doesn’t mean you’re being scanned, if you see combat probes in close then you’re most likely being probed down.
      It is possible to use D-scan offensively too though, so never be too complacent just because you don’t see probes immediately……. Keep hitting scan.
      How do you use it offensively?
