flipping plexes on the market
t2 production with some friends of mine
flying relatively cheap stuff compared to my wallet.

For example, lately I'm flying a lot of battlecruisers, interceptors, assault frigs and the like, but then I have a "few" billions in the bank to say the least and because of that, it doesn't matter too much when I lose one, I just buy another and continue on. I also have ready access to BPOs that allow me to build a few things for baseline build cost of the materials required to build them, instead of buying them. for other things like one of my current projects, the access provided to me by a friend will allow me to aquire something for 250m-500m under market cost.

Shame on you :). Do not listen to the "try not to lose ships" people. That will lead to being a pvp carebear which is even worae then normal carebears. Lose ships often. Just make sure they are easily replaceable. Dont fly faction pimed **** everyday. T1 is ok to fly sometimes. Some of my most fun fights recently have been in frigs. I died but it was fun. Which afterall is the whole point of the game. If yiur corp hates on you for flying cheap **** and demands u be LEET pvper, blow one of them up on the next op then find a new corp.



Sorry for trying to be subtle with the humor; I know it goes over a lot of people's heads.

My corp's philosophy is that yes, losses happen, but stupid, avoidable losses (through not scouting/running intel/hitting D-scan) will earn one an ass-chewing, with the intent of learnin' 'em up so they don't do the same stupid over and over again. On the other hand, we aren't going to throw away ships on a battle we know can't be won (and oh, the smack-talk when the tard's see their trap sprung and nothing caught in its midst).

With the ISK from those who hire us. ;)

At the end of a contract, payouts are given out to each individual pilot based upon their overall performance during the contract.

Though even a single high value (multi billion) ISK kill tends to screw up the curve for the people that were not part of that KM.

Firstly, There no such thing as PVP elite.

Now that we have that out of the way.

Isk is made from PVP, as a 1 man show I was able to rake in some good isk deccing large alliances, and I mean ALOT of ISK. And just be a fly in their ointment where they could crush me if they came at me. But always lost ships far away from where they were going for me.

Isk paid... war retracted. Unfortuanately.. that stopped now since it is prohibitively more expensive to dec the corp and alliances on my own. So I am still looking for a new income stream.
