Is a unique wormhole system that has 4 Sisters of Eve stations and a number of special properties.
Visually W-Space is surrounded with cloud-like nebulae, partially blocking vision into the reaches of space. It is believed that Anoikis resides in a dense Nebula, which in turn provides necessary physical criteria for the abundant resources which are considered rare or non-existent in New Eden.
Local chat in W-Space is different from K-Space. You or any other players will only show up in channel if you"re actually chatting. Otherwise they simply won"t show up. You will continue to show up in local chat after you"ve typed, until all other players witnessing your presence have jumped system or logged off. Therefore to see who"s in system you need to use scouts and D-Scan . Even then a cloaky ship won"t be noticeable until it decloaks or logs off.
Exploration Sites and Cosmic Anomalies
Exploration sites in W-Space are different from K-Space. They are inhabited by Sleepers , which provide the materials to build Tech 3 Ships (Strategic Cruiser). Bringing a Dreadnought or Carrier into Anomalies, Data or Relic sites will spawn additional battleships in Class 5 and 6 W-Space systems. These spawns called Capital Escalations drop decent amounts of loot, allowing you to make ISK without completely finishing the site. Only two Capital Escalations can be triggered per capital type, totalling at four. All sites despawn three downtimes after they"ve been activated (initiated warp to). If a site isn"t completed it will despawn on the fourth downtime after its activation. Escalation waves will regenerate after every downtime so it"s possible to keep on farming a site for days.
Ore sites are anomalies that contain asteroids which can be mined. In higher class Wormholes the sites can contain enough ore to keep a dozen Hulks busy for days. An ore site can contain every known ore and is lightly guarded.
W-Space classes C1-3 also contains the same Data and Relic sites that spawn in Nullsec . These do not have any rats, Sleeper or otherwise. However unlike standard W-Space exploration sites, the hackable containers explode if your hacking attempt fails too many times.
Cosmic Signatures
Cosmic Signatures need to be probed down. They come in 5 types:
- Gas - These Sites will contain gas clouds, which can be harvested through a Gas Harvester. The gas is needed for Tech 3 production and is lightly guarded. See Wormhole Gas Sites for more details on this.
- Data - Data Sites will contain locked containers, containing items like datacores, which can be unlocked through Hacking . Sometimes there will be a Talocan ship wreck, which can be salvaged and will drop ancient hull sections for Tech 3 Ships. The sites are heavily guarded and can be escalated by capitals, unlike their K-Space counterparts.
- Relic - Those sites will contain ancient relics in containers, which have to be opened through Archaeology . Ancient relics are needed to generate T3 blueprints through reverse engineering. Relic Sites are heavily guarded and can be escalated by capitals unlike their K-Space counterparts.
- Wormhole - Not guarded by Sleepers , though it may be guarded by players. Unknown sites always indicate a Wormhole location, said wormhole will not spawn in its destination system until a player jumps through it. While it is by no means a guarantee, avoiding jumping wormhole signatures significantly reduces the chance that you will find yourself sharing the system with other players. It is worth noting that if a wormhole is opened towards you (your side is K162) the connection has been certainly established on both sides.
Other Activities
Production
W-Space has a structural advantage only in one area of production. This is unsurprisingly Tech 3 production . All the materials required for Tactical Destroyer and Strategic Cruiser (T3) hulls and subsystems originate from W-Space, giving W-Space a logistical advantage considering the buliness of the fullerene gases. It is also impossible to run a full T3 production line in high sec systems, further increasing this advantage.
For more information about Tech 3 Cruiser Production, you may start with the Tech 3 production page.
In addition to Tech 3 production, processes that aren"t allowed in highsec space can be found in W-Space. The most notable is Drug Manufacturing , utilizing the often short travel times to trade hubs -assuming you aren"t unlucky- to import the necessary materials and exporting or locally selling the manufactured end-goods.
Anoikis Systems
Statics
Statics are a system variable. Each system will have a static (two for C2s and C4s), which will always have the same wormhole ID and lead you to the same class of W-Space or K-Space system as the previous one. When a static wormhole collapses a new static wormhole will spawn immediately, taking you to the same class of W-Space or K-Space.
Class 1 Systems
C1 systems are not very popular for harvesting or site running purposes. They are excellent for beginners. They"re relatively safe, easy to run and require a low amount of skillpoints. A battlecruiser can solo the sites and a small cruiser gang will easily run the sites efficiently.
C1 systems have a niche role of being used by small Tech 3 Manufacturing Corporations. Some of these corporations will build one or two carriers which will make them very hard to evict due to structure reinforcement mechanics.

Class 2 Systems
C2 wormhole systems have a special role in low-class Wormhole Space systems. They offer slightly more ISK than C1"s and can be soloed by low skillpoint Battlecruiser pilots. Their special property is that they come with two statics. These statics provide guaranteed access to K-Space and W-Space.

Class 4 Systems
Prior to the Hyperion expansion, C4 Systems were not very loved. C4 combat sites provide a little more ISK than C3 but require quite a bit more effort. C4s, like C5s and C6s, don"t have statics to K-Space. However, unlike any other class, they never have any incoming wormholes from K-Space either, and never generate roaming connections to K-Space (other than M001 and Q003 small-ship wormholes). This means at least a two-jump chain to reach K-Space. It is worth noting however, that C4 residents like the space they live in mainly because C4s are lower maintenance both on the capital and active player front. C4s also grant access to frequent PvP.
Since the Hyperion expansion in 2014, all C4 Systems have two static wormholes. Each wormhole leads to another system in W-space. The wormholes are always different types (so you can"t have a C4 system with two C3 statics, for example). All combinations exist except C1/C5, C1/C6, and C2/C6. Additionally, while data exists for wormholes connecting C4 system to K-Space systems (S074, N290, and K329), no wormholes of these types ever generate.

System Effects
Certain W-Space systems have effects that change the nature of your ship"s statistics and/or modules. These phenomena only affect capsuleer ships, so Sleepers or structures won"t be affected. The only in-game ways of telling what type of system you"re in are the visual markers on the horizon or checking your fitting window for statistics changes, such as Armor HP in a Wolf-Rayet. Generally players use third-party websites to check systems for effects.
On August 26th, 2014, with the Hyperion update, System Effects were rebalanced. All tables are updated with these new balance numbers. Dev Blog
Pulsar
Pulsar systems are very powerful when utilized correctly. They provide bonuses to shield amount and capacitor recharge time, effectively doubling both stats" effectiveness in C6s. Armor ships will suffer a resistance debuff, and should be used carefully or not at all. NOSes and Neuts are also strengthened to help counter capital ship"s massive tanks in these W-Space systems.
 |
Effects | Class 1 | Class 2 | Class 3 | Class 4 | Class 5 | Class 6 |
| Shield Capacity | +30% | +44% | +58% | +72% | +86% | +100% | |
| Armor Resists | -15% | -22% | -29% | -36% | -43% | -50% | |
| Capacitor Recharge Time | -15% | -22% | -29% | -36% | -43% | -50% | |
| Signature Radius | +30% | +44% | +58% | +72% | +86% | +100% | |
| NOS & Neut Drain Amount | +30% | +44% | +58% | +72% | +86% | +100% |
Black Hole
If you love speed, you"ll love Black Hole systems. The velocity bonus here allows the possibility of reaching amazing speeds, though increased Inertia and a Stasis Web penalty will make it hard to stop! Missile and Targeting bonuses make kiting missile platforms paramount in these now potentially habitable systems.
 |
Effects | Class 1 | Class 2 | Class 3 | Class 4 | Class 5 | Class 6 |
| Missile Velocity | +15% | +22% | +29% | +36% | +43% | +50% | |
| Missile Explosion Velocity | +30% | +44% | +58% | +72% | +86% | +100% | |

| Targeting Range | +30% | +44% | +58% | +72% | +86% | +100% |
Cataclysmic Variable
Cataclysmic Variable systems basically increase the logistics capabilities of your fleet. Self-repping won"t be as viable, which might be a problem for sieging Dreadnoughts. These systems also have a bonus to capacitor amount and a lesser debuff to capacitor recharge, overall giving you more stability. The Capacitor Transfer penalty discourages spider-tanking, especially in carriers.

Effects | Class 1 | Class 2 | Class 3 | Class 4 | Class 5 | Class 6 |
| Local Armor Repair Amount | -15% | -22% | -29% | -36% | -43% | -50% | |

| Remote Cap Transmitter Amount | -15% | -22% | -29% | -36% | -43% | -50% |
Magnetar
While Magnetars suffer from damage application reductions, they come with a massive straight-out damage bonus. Magnetars are generally liked. Running sites in them is faster.

Effects | Class 1 | Class 2 | Class 3 | Class 4 | Class 5 | Class 6 |
| Damage | +30% | +44% | +58% | +72% | +86% | +100% | |

| Target Painter Strength | -15% | -22% | -29% | -36% | -43% | -50% |
Red Giant
Red Giants are very specialized. They"re not sought after, not because they"re bad but because they don"t have much to offer. The bonus to smartbomb range and damage can be useful, especially when camping holes. The overheating bonus will allow your overheated modules to be even more effective, but they will burn out quicker. Also, the Bomb Damage bonus provides more potential for Stealth Bomber effectiveness - though do note, the bombs don"t have extra HP.

| Bomb Damage | +30% | +44% | +58% | +72% | +86% | +100% |
Wolf Rayet
Wolf Rayets are partially opposite to Pulsars. The obvious differences are the bonus to Armor HP and the reduction to Shield Resists. There is also a bonus to signature radius which further enforces the armor doctrine fleets. The small gun damage bonus opens interesting possibilities for gangs consisting of smaller sized ships. C1-C6 Wolf Rayets are not to be confused with Small Ship Shattered wormholes , also known as C13s, which use the C6-strength effect.

Special wormhole systems
Shattered wormholes
There are a small number of so-called "Shattered" Wormhole Systems, which are special enough that they have their own page describing them.
Inside the wormhole from inside the Drifter system has a normal K162 signature when opened and needs to be scanned down as usual, but is deadspaced, so can only be warped to at 80km. Drifter battleships guard these wormholes and attack anybody trying to pass them. The nature of these wormholes and the Drifter systems is still shifting and a mystery.
All five Drifter wormhole system effects are C2-strength.
Other Unique Systems
- J1226-0 (C4) is the only wormhole system in the game to have a hyphen (and not 6 numbers) in its name
- J102834 (C6 Magnetar) is the only wormhole system in the game to have a named planet (its second planet, Eyjafjallajokull II, named after the real-life volcano which famously erupted in 2010).
Misc
- Everybody loves Tech 3 Ships in W-Space because they provide the best efficiency/mass ratio which is important when jumping wormholes.
- An "eviction" is the act of an entity kicking another out of their home system. You might think of it as a SOV war, only in a single system instead of numerous regions.
- Supercapitals don"t fit through wormholes. Don"t try it.
Многие пилоты даже не догадываются о том, что прямо рядом с ними могут находиться входы в другую вселенную - опасное и загадочное w-пространство, скрывающееся за червоточинами. Жизнь в ВХ в EVE Online - выбор для настоящих параноиков, любителей экстрима и тех, кто стремится к заоблачным богатствам. По сравнению с вормхолами, нули могут показаться скучным и унылым местом, лишённым всяческих перспектив. Именно в глубинах червоточин происходят самые ожесточенные сражения и именно там происходит охота за баснословными прибылями. Жизнь в ВХ в EVE Online - самая интересная и насыщенная, и именно здесь заканчивали свой жизненный путь (точнее, жизненный путь своего клона) многие пилоты, причем, порой даже от банальной безысходности - они просто не могли найти выход в обычное пространство и уничтожали себя вместе с кораблём.
Оформите триал в EVE Online и окунитесь в эту непередаваемую атмосферу вместе с многонациональным сообществом космических пилотов.
Как начать жизнь в ВХ в EVE Online?
Предсказать, где и когда появится тот или иной вход в него - невозможно, и никто не может сказать, в какую конкретно часть этого неизведанного мира конкретная червоточина может привести. Найти их можно очень быстро и практически в любой системе - достаточно иметь сканер аномалий. А вот чем заниматься дальше и как будет выглядеть ваша жизнь в ВХ в мире EVE Online - выбор только за вами. Вы можете как вступить в корпорацию, занимающуюся добычей ископаемых, так и стать волком-одиночкой, выслеживающим случайных путников. Вы даже можете продавать торговые маршруты, если найдёте цепочку червоточин, соединяющую очень далёкие друг от друга системы. Если вам надоело привычное течение событий, если вы хотите попробовать что-то новое, если вы готовы оглядываться при каждом шорохе, то пришло время для начала жизни в ВХ в EVE Online.
На чём летать в ВХ?
В ВХ-системах с классом C1 и C2 постоянно используются линейные крейсера, чаще всего - "Дрейк" и "Харрикейн". Системы C3 и C4 рассчитаны на использование стратегических крейсеров, в первую очередь - "Тенгу". Ну а в системах классов C5 и C6, считающихся самыми опасными, в боях против беспилотников выходят самые большие корабли - дредноуты и корабли-носители.

Часто, занимаясь исследованием космоса, вы можете найти нестабильные червоточины. Эти нестабильные червоточины в EVE Online могут вести в специальные системы, называемые Вормхол или ВХ (от англ. Wormhole или WH ). Иногда они могут просто соединять две произвольных системы в простом космическом пространстве.
Через такие червоточины вы можете моментально преодолеть большие расстояния, однако такие объекты очень непредсказуемы и могут исчезнуть в любой момент . Вам нужно быть максимально осторожным, проходя сквозь червоточины, так как они могут закрыться сразу вслед за вами, а вы окажетесь в очень отдалённом и опасном месте.
Начинайте играть в EVE Online прямо сейчас и вы забудете о скуке и однообразии, так часто встречающихся в других онлайн проектах.
Что находится в пространстве червоточин?
Вормхолы (ВХ, WH, Wormhole) в EVE Online - это необычные системы, которые находятся за пределами известного космоса и обладают особыми свойствами. В таких системах могут частично изменяться характеристики кораблей, а связь очень затруднена, так как развитые приборы коммуникации, вроде общесистемного канала чата, там отсутствуют.
В самих вормхолах вы можете найти очень экзотические и странные исследовательские районы, которые населены таинственными Спящими. Если вы не имеете хорошего вооружения и не готовы к сражениям, то от Спящих лучше держаться подальше.
