| - | If you see a cyno inhib going up, make sure call it out. If you have your own recon on grid, make sure to light its' cyno. Preferably in a proper save fleet or a fleet where the boss is not AFK, but that's secondary to getting it lit. Communicate. If you have to light, make sure the FC knows it's lit and what fleet it's lit in. You can NOT change fleets after lighting your cyno. Make an overview tab that has nothing but cyno inhibitors and check that tab if a hostile fleet shows up. You don't want the inhib hidden in the sea of red. | + | If you see a cyno inhib going up, make sure call it out.

| - | Report those basic things in comms every 30 seconds or so (or every time the FC asks). When a FC shows up, make sure you're paying enough attention to hear things and follow instructions. I recommend joining either Fleet 6 comms (in mumble), and hanging out there for a minute or two to make sure your mic/speakers are working. After that, feel free to use the quiet room or deaf/mute yourself.

| - | Before you undock your Rorqual, check to see if there's an alliance strategic operation. Make sure that the status in standing fleet is green. If there is an active stratop, you will not be saved and should not be mining. Some easy ways to tell are paying attention to your pings and checking the number of people in mumble Global Command channels. Continue to monitor pings and the intel map while mining. Be in mumble. There's a quiet room in fleet 6 where you should only hear important things. People will often help call out importing pings, intel, hostiles, or if your drones are being shot, etc. If you're in mumble, we can shout at you when things are important. We want this.

| - | **1. Join the proper fleet and comms.** You don't have to be in Fleet 6 comms and listen to everyone babble, but it's not a bad idea – at least until you know what you're doing on your own. But, at the very least, be in the quiet channel. Also, as much as people will argue on this point, DO NOT exempt yourself from fleet warp. You want someone to be able to warp you out of the anom should you be an idiot and fall asleep at the keyboard. Yes, I've done this. No, it doesn't win you any friends. You can't be warped in siege, but you will (eventually) run out of heavy water, and someone can warp you off and scoop your drones – if there are any left after rats have chewed on them for a while. | + | **1. Join the proper fleet and comms.** Make sure you are in standing fleet and within the standing fleet comms, you don't have to be in a loud channel and actively participating but FCs need to be able to communicate with you in case something goes wrong. There is a quiet channel that you can relax in and only hear FCs. |
| - | **2. Scout your anom.** Find out if there's a ping, and if not, use a fast ship to make one. I typically advise warping to the center of the Colossal, for example, then moving straight up or at a 45deg angle *toward* your docking point (fortizar, keepstar) until you're at least 150km (minimum warp distance) from the nearest rock. Any closer than that and you can't warp to them, which defeats the purpose. Much farther away, then a scanner can't tell you which rocks have decent m3 remaining. Then, drop the bookmark in corp so you and everyone else around you can get to it easily. | + | **2. Scout your anom.** Find out if there's a ping, and if not, use a fast ship to make one.

| Pings help you navigate. Your next rock is 74km away? No problem. Target the rock, warp to the ping, then back down to it. I recommend setting warp-to distance to 2500 so you don't bounce and end up 20k away (but only on primarily rorqual pilots – warping to 2500 on a gate can be problematic). If you don't want to do that, just learn not to warp to 0 on a spod rock or you will bounce more often than not. Warp to 10km and slowboat in. If your ping is directly above the rock you're warping to, you can move toward it once you're out of warp and hit "stop" when you're approx 800m away. You'll come to a lazy stop almost in the perfect position for siege. | Pings help you navigate. Your next rock is 74km away? No problem. Target the rock, warp to the ping, then back down to it.

| Do this BEFORE you start calling on comms that you've been tackled. Why? Because the first thing a competent whaling (rorqual killing) gang is going to do, after making sure you can't warp away, is to reinforce your mobile depot. They do this for two reasons: First, if you had it reinforced previously and didn't repackage it, they can get an instant kill on it and anything it contains. Second, reinforcing it prevents you from refitting. NOTE: Recent changes prevent you from loading anything into a Wetu once it's reinforced. Make sure you always always always move your exacavators into the Wetu at the first sign of trouble. | Do this BEFORE you start calling on comms that you've been tackled. Why?

| - | Once your drones are safe, the absolute next thing you should look for is for a "Mobile Cynosual Inhibitor" to show up on your overview. That is *critical* information, not only for yourself, but for any FC who forms a fleet to assist you. If you can kill it by dropping drones, do it. Don't hesitate. If you cannot, make sure you're in a valid fleet (non AFK fleet boss or preferably the Rorqual Save fleet) and if you have a recon on grid, light its' cyno. Once the jammer is onlined, nobody can cyno to you. Fortunately, it doesn't prevent people from warping to you… but it means that someone else has to get a cyno ship into your system and light a cyno for a titan bridge, etc. That extra step can mean rorqual death if the gang is hitting you hard enough, fast enough, and you have to PANIC before a fleet can be mobilized. | + | Once your drones are safe, the absolute next thing you should look for is for a "Mobile Cynosual Inhibitor" to show up on your overview.

| If your attackers are serious and/or experienced, they will ALWAYS target your Wetu first to reinforce it, hoping to catch you unable to save your excavators and prevent you from refitting. Here's an additional trick that only works if there are multiple rorquals on grid: If you are not in siege, you can move within refit range of another rorqual even after Wetus are reinforced, and BOTH maybe be able to refit off of each other. Note that you are more vulnerable if not in siege, but being able to refit before hitting your core for defense purposes can make a big difference. | If your attackers are serious and/or experienced, they will ALWAYS target your Wetu first to reinforce it, hoping to catch you unable to save your excavators and prevent you from refitting.
