Question Planetary Interaction in Null

Where is a good place to do Planetary Interaction in Null that doesn't have POCOs that have a decent tax rate? I'm a solo player and not exactly looking to join a corporation or alliance.

Just join a big block , there you can solo undetected in the masses and don't get shot on sight trying to get your pi stuff out

With my solo corporation lol? The thought is interesting.

u/MontyTheMooch Aug 02 '26

Yeah, that’s not happening without joining one of the alliances.

Maybe wormhole space? Logistically harder as you either need to go all in or keep an alt in system to give you connections each time the cycle is up.

I'm trying to get out of a wormhole lol.

u/MinnalousheXIII Amarr Empire Aug 02 '26

Okay, why get into null out of a wormhole? You sure you don't just need to upgrade your hole?

u/Wide_Hope_9499 Aug 03 '26

I just don't want to deal with logistics of being inside a wh. I rather jump clone to my PI area and then jump out. Then enjoy the rest of the game I like to do. I like hunting in a wh and nomading, but I don't want to be stationary in just one wormhole.

Sounds cool! But for the jump cloning to PI area, wouldn't a citadel with a clone bay work inside the wormhole?

I'm not that familiar with those mechanics, my time down the Rabbithole was before and just as citadels became a thing. So don't know for sure of this would work. But I have jump clones in a couple citadels/azbels in K-space.

Only wormhole you can jump clone to is Thera's SoE stations.

u/MinnalousheXIII Amarr Empire 28d ago

Good to know! Guess It'll see if I can get myself a low sec station to operate out of.

Lots of people exist in their bubble of sovereign null, and seem to forget there are areas of npc null. Normally this manifests in comments like “null is safer than low sec”, but you can see it here too.

Anyway, I use a dead end system in Syndicate. I clone jump in and out once a week or even less frequently to move things around, and then every few months I use a deluge to g et stuff out. Most of the time I don’t encounter anyone.

u/Wide_Hope_9499 Aug 02 '26

That's sorta the setup I'm looking for.

2

u/ProfessorLlanellis 29d ago

Can confirm I do the same thing in Syndicate, only been doing it for a few weeks though. It’s a quiet area of Null with plenty of NPC stations.

All the POCOs there still owned by Shadow Cartel?

u/EnvironmentalBet113 GoonWaffe Aug 02 '26

I hope this is a joke.

NPC null would be only options, however as a solo player, you are an easy target to be shot in space. Joining a corp would be safer and you'd have access to more planets

Pochven has some of the best PI in the game

5

u/technobabbler Aug 02 '26

Better be on your A game with the right ships or you’ll get caught pulling stuff. Also some of pochven is getting pretty saturated.

1

u/Wide_Hope_9499 Aug 02 '26

I agree, pochven is saturated.

u/Cephiuss Girls Lie But Zkill Doesn't Aug 02 '26

There isn't.

Null is meant to ve monitored and controlled by the local group.

That also means they should reap 100% of the benefits if possible.

If they give up resources, they're also giving up space.

u/Safrel Aug 02 '26

Wormlife freeports is the name of your game

u/Extension_Access392 Aug 02 '26

Those are rare. Maybe contact https://evemaps.dotlan.net/alliance/Curatores_Veritatis_Alliance and see if they have a PI program like that. They are known to work with neutrals, aka. you don't have to be in their alliance to use their space.

cva haven't been nrds for years now

u/Safrel Aug 02 '26

Aw :8 I thought that added a lot of flavor

3

u/MerryRain Cloaked Aug 02 '26

yeah its a shame, provi bloc was a pretty special part of new eden for a long time, but they're basically the only people in null who like AO so uh, fuck em

u/DetailOrDie Aug 02 '26

Curse is actually pretty good.

You're very much at risk, as there are locals that actively hunt PI people, but there are several NPC station systems with Pocos of 5% or less.

Plus, there's a constant connection to Zarzakh about 5-10 jumps from where you setup that can be used to reliably ferry things.

u/Woolpolecat Wormholer Aug 02 '26

Go hop into a wormhole

u/Real_Farfnarkle The Initiative. Aug 02 '26

C-n4od has no taxes for me

2

u/tantalumburst KarmaFleet Aug 02 '26

Or join Karmafleet. Taxes are very low - 1% - and most of the space is as safe as null gets which means paying attention to intel and operating at quieter times of the day/week.

u/Potato-Drama808 Aug 02 '26

Yoi just join a nice big block so you can grab in peace all day.

u/Critical-Trouble-465 Aug 02 '26

My high sec corp apparently made a deal with some null sec corp to allow us to do pi in their space at low taxes, don't know the details though since I just do my pi in my wormhole with no taxes.
