I have become addicted to gas harvesting in EVE Online. It's fun, its tense, and it makes A LOT OF ISK!

Here's how you can get in on this!

For viewers thinking about this in terms of isk per hour, you will still need significant time to scan for a wormhole, scan all the signatures. This is why Eve is not a solo game, if you have active explorers in a corp sharing this information, you huff as a group, tip the finder so they make a bit more for the scanning effort.

Hey Benzie, I just want to share my short funny story about how you get me back to EVE. I started playing EVE back in 2007 and had a lot of fun back then. While becomming a family father a couple of years later my EVE carrier got into hibernation. Around the last months I was thinking about looking into EVE again and started to watch some YT content about all the new stuff going on. By that I stumbled over this video here about gas huffing in J space and I was instantly sucked into New Eden again and into you EVE videos aswell :D. I then logged in again, get my self a prospect and jumped into the first hole I could find. Nice and easy getting my first gas huffed just like you explained. A couple of WH's later I jumped into a C3 full of juicy gas. By the time my cargo hold was stuffed I warped back to my bookmarked "freaking exit" :D I realized that someone collapsed the way back home. There I was, stuck in J space just like you said a thousand times in your wormhole101. I got in contact with the guys of EVE Scout Rescue to get me out of there. BTW, big shoutout to these guys, they are doing such a great job out there. While I was waiting for the rescue force to arrive I got a message from someone who was obviously living in this C3. He carried me out of the WH and even invited me to live with them in there WH. Now, who could have guessed it, I'm now living a J space life and having a lot of fun with this guys. All this happens because of your awesome and hilarious videos about all the great opportunities in EVE online. Thank you Benzie for getting me back into the rabbit hole, fly save and see you in New Eden o7

Love these beginner videos! I’m actually a new player who has tried to play the game for years now. But every time I get demotivated, since I’ve seen your series on Eve Online I haven’t stopped since 3 weeks! Keep te content coming, cause there’s still a lot to learn for me!

[LordJike]

There's an even safer way to do the sites for some of them, in the vast, bountiful, instrumental and vital reservoirs, the main gas cloud is large enough that you can set a bookmark 300km from where the rats spawn (in the middle of the site, where you warp in) and still be in range of the gas cloud, you'll be able to huff in peace without the rats even aggroing on you.

[Triggernlfrl]

As beginner noob instead level 1/2 combat missions did wh gas huffing with Venture.
Got ganked once but still managed to pay for cruiser, BS etc..
Nowedays i take a prospect for a fun ride because it has bigger cargo space and ofcourse covert ops.
Still Venture would be still a good choise for the job.
Do not forget to bookmark the wh where you come from and carry extra set of probes.

[wayneduplessis]

Im from Zim also, been playing Eve since 2006, never come across anyone else in zim playing till now :)

[tommyabc]

nice I found that even doing 250 m/s around the cloud some of those sleepers are not doing much damage - this fit works for low risk loss

[DarkVeghetta]

I just now realized that both Warp Core Optimizers and Inertial Stabilizers negatively impact signature radius. Well, damn... there go my old fittings (only really used them in high sec previously).

As such, I made a new fit that compares favorably with the one featured here in a few ways:
- sub 3s align time from stationary;
- is a lot harder to scan down by probes (22, 74 sensor strength for me);
- has a warp stabilizer that can mitigate one basic scram;
- is faster by 26, 4m/s before activating the AB (2785, 8 m/s max speed with AB for me).

Downsides:
- no shield resistance bonuses;
- 42% worse targeting range and scan resolution (it still has 543 mm of resolution, so I don't see this as an actual problem);
- only 58s of cap (without the warp stab) - this is probably the main downside but, with nearly 2, 79km/s (i.e. over 10k km/h), it should be able to speed tank just fine with the booster only being used occasionally (without the booster/stab it's cap stable at 42% for me, so it should recharge quickly if some care is taken).

Mind you, I do have most of the relevant skills maxed out, so this fit may not be useful to you if you don't, as it's very tight (0.7 power grid to spare).

Here's the fit:


[Prospect, WH Gas Huffing]
Damage Control II
Nanofiber Internal Structure II
Micro Auxiliary Power Core II
'Halcyon' Core Equalizer I

Sensor Booster II
Small Clarity Ward Enduring Shield Booster
10MN Afterburner II

Covert Ops Cloaking Device II
Gas Cloud Scoop II
Gas Cloud Scoop II

Small Auxiliary Thrusters II
Small Polycarbon Engine Housing II

ECCM Script x1



If you don't use a separate ship for scanning, feel free to replace the Small Auxiliary Thrusters II with a Small Gravity Capacitor Upgrade I (sadly the T2 version doesn't quite fit). Likewise, if you absolutely want to be cap stable, you could always replace the shield booster with a Small Azeotropic Restrained Shield that doesn't impact your sig radius while giving you a passive shield regen of 8 hp/s and 5110 ehp.


Truth be told, in terms of damage mitigation, Benzie's fit is far superior, but I feel that making it harder for gankers to scan you down, having <3s align time (thus allowing safe warps in high sec without the cloak, due to how server ticks and grid announcements work), and having a warp stabilizer is worth the trade-offs, since other pilots are a bigger danger than NPCs from my point of view. That said, I haven't taken it out yet in an area with a lot of NPCs shooting at me, so so do take care if you try it out.

started eve 2months back, im in null corp and i easily gain 500mil a day semi-afk huffing myko gas for few hours, sometimes around 800mil if i get a Lime Myko gas site, two ventures with syndicate gas scoops, I tried WH gas huffing but realized WH gas ain't giving much isk + it can't be played semi-afk.. I just keep eye on local and do my office work while huffing in null.. I'm happy I found gas huffing so early in the game, I was just trying it out with a corp mate and i loved it since.. suits well to my semi-afk playstyle..

[flarapediati]

I've found that if you're inside the cloud, you can "Set Orbit to Current (0m)" and then you will orbit around the edge at the minimum range.

[Insert__Users]

If you r really good at it project discovery gives you ~200k every minute
200k*60=12 million
and u can do this while mining or warping so it's basically free money
Edit: Unfortunately, devs saw this and you can only submit some every day. But still a lot of money

[toniheinonen]

If you get lost in wormhole space:

"Who you gonna call?
Signal Cartel!"

[brianchristopher]

I love huffing gas. I love exploring and the ninja aspect of gas huffing. Mining bores the crap out of me. I just got into a prospector 🖤🖤🖤

[deeeldredge]

New player (~1 month). Tired of shooting rocks. Saved up to buy another Venture, equipped it and scanned down my first wormhole. Entered J101757. Did a save spot, warped and created a safe spot. Had a terrible time scanning down things. I suspect that is due to low skills. Eventually I came across "WVE-528 Ordinary Perimeter Reservoir Gas site" in the Probe Scanner window, which may be something always there. Unsure. Got excited. Warped to site. Got blasted to bits almost as soon as I exited warp by "Vigilant Sentry Towers". To prevent other newbies who watch this and try it out it may be worthwhile to mention some safety. It will take me 5hrs of asteroid shooting to afford another Venture to try gas in. Still haven't huffed my first gas.

Ordinary Perimeter Reservoir Made SAFE!! <-- Says you need stealth. New players may not have access.

[Mr.NonExistant]

I think having a probe scanner on, if it fits is really useful if the wormhole collapses on you.

Erit: on a Venture

[sniwepog]

Just so you know the aggro range of the sleepers is about 250km range. SO since the cloud is so big you can burn to the outer edge of it and huff outta aggro range. You legit don't even have to move.

[skytripa]

Thanks Captain for another great vid. Looks like something i'll have to train into!

[donc]

CB so do you just travel through the gas cloud until you find something to click on?

I have the ship/scoops/ and scanning skill but I’m having trouble finding something to click on. I don’t know how to add gas to my overview

[Wallett]

I found a wormhole group to run with after watching this video and it’s been such great isk I run 2 accounts and the other members have a porpoise to benefit everyone

[popularRevolution]

And remember, if you see someone doing this, it's bait. There's 3 cloaked Proteus following every Prospect.
