I have a pretty high SP combat alt and was thinking about making the move to 0.0 or null sec. I was just wondering how people make a living in null do to lack of agents for missions and lack of market access. Thanks

0.0 = Null sec. Null and low are two different things. No answer to ur question that doesnt need others inpit.

Mostly by harvesting moon goo with POSes, but you can kill belt rats, mine ABC roids, do exploration, run complexes....

lots of ways to make iso, but you can also get ganked quite easily.

Short reply:
Kill belt rats or rats in anoms will give you a steady income. Aswell as mining, PI, Moon mining or agents if you live in NPC nullsec.

2nd, there's still a market in nullsec.

It depends on how your moving into Null sec.

Are you planning on joining a massive alliance? Or are you thinking about going it alone.

Going into null alone is possible but can be a challenge. You will have no support, NPC markets can be sparsely supplied and you are going to be living in NPC null. Making isk in null can be done with belt ratts or doing plex's, PI is possible as well.

If you are joining an alliance especially a larger one they usually have logistics support. You will be expected to have multiple ships depending on the doctrine's that they fly. Also you will want your own isk making ships. You will have more support in the systems you can ratt in and intelligence channels that can help you out with where hostiles are.

Honestly if you have not spent any or little time in Null I would look at joining a corp that is a larger alliance. You will have the most support and as long as you can make CTA's and OP's you will have a good time. Also the larger alliances usually seem to have programs to help with certain losses. This makes a huge difference especially when getting started in null.

Null isn't scary, it's one of the best places to live in game. Only space I like more then null is WH space.
