Currently hit my burnout phase again and i really don't know what to do and i'm looking for advice.


My current issue is the I have found the isk fountain that is incursions and everything else seems pointless now.

I have enough isk to buy almost anything I could want short of a new toon on the market and plexing is no longer fun or any other type of carebare activity is the same and pvp is pointless beacuse I'm not skilled for it.


So please any tips on how to get rid of burnout I don't wanna leave there no other good mmos out there.

And yet you can run Incursions that require rather a lot of PvP skills. Weird.

Recently everything I put in my mouth tastes like chicken.

  • PVP
  • PVE
  • Mining
  • Exploration
  • FW
  • Industry
  • Research
  • Running a corp
  • Running an alliance
  • Help a corpmate out
  • Incursions

  • Don't bother reading guides on the above and learn it all yourself, it's more fun.


Lots more ideas could be mentioned but if you are bored or do not like any of the above then take a month or two off, your stuff will still be here when you get back.

and once you come back DON´T do Incursions again as that would get you into the same mindset once more.
Perhaps you could try wormholes for example: Still basically PVE but with the extra kick other players possibly interfering (and you avoiding them)....
Or perhaps low-sec exploration....

I suggest the take a month or two off idea... play another game for a bit.
It does help.

With a game like Eve that takes years to skill up. Burnout happens quite a lot.
I've heard of some who have gone through burnout a few times.

I feel for ya bro.

Came out of null after JB and Sanctum nerf, sick of blobbing, AFK cloakers, random ****. Sold my scap pilot, my Rorq pilot and started a couple of fresh toons.

Came to empire, put in a tower, trained some chars for PI, doing a few high-end BPO's etc. I got Hulks and Orca's and Macks and well, they just sit in the shed unused.

Got faction Tengu and Claymore and a Noctis... Unused.

I only log about 20 minutes a day and then go do other stuff.

I can't play it atm, but I can't NOT play it either...

I love Eve, I love the people in it but I'm burned..... Must admit, it's the ONLY game I have ever played more than 2 years.

/me opens Pinball to see if he can get 10m without using cheats.
