o7 and welcome back to the OP! Eve is in a good spot right now, but most of the things that you mentioned can still be annoying. Ganking still exists, but its not hard to move expensive stuff around if youā€™re careful. First, donā€™t make yourself a target. Fit T2 buffer refits to your marauder, and put the bling in a cargo container. Those canā€™t be scanned, and will keep you safer. I would recommend looking up the gankers own calculations of EHP:isk and stay under Second, you can MWD+Cloak trick off most gates. Yes its obvious you are being careful, but still hard to catch you. I move around a lot of isk like that in HS, never been ganked. Third, battleships have a frigate escape bay now. Canā€™t take most covops, but you can put an Astero with expanders and buffer in there, dock your marauder, and do your shopping with a sneaky frigate. Best of luck, eve is thriving right now, and rewards the bold and clever. ---

While I agree with most of that, I would not call this thriving vs what it used to be. [EVE-Offline :: EVE-Online Status monitor](https://eve-offline.net/?server=tranquility) ---
