You can maximize mission payouts by getting 3-4 agents and only accepting the best missions (enemies abound, killing factional enemies, and to a lesser extent, angel extravaganza) and doing those missions every day for a week. One time I had enemies abound 3/5 running in 3 instances, so I was running 3 of them per day, making minimum 160mil in about an hour and a half. That's about the most you can get from L4s without blitzing constantly. I prefer short profitable bursts of missioning rather than long grinds for efficient steady iskmaking.



How do you figure that much isk in an hour and a half?


enemies abound 3/5 yields 40-50mil in tags alone, with salvage and looting of meta large blasters and the gallente drop profile you get another 45-50mil from the three instances of the mission from wrecks. 40*3+45=165

I'm not including LP here because you would only get an LP payout once per mission, since you aren't completing the mission for 7 days.

this setup I was running to buy some plexes around a month ago so the payout may have gone down according to market buy orders, i don't know.

Also, I typically run with a mach and a noctis alt, but for pirate missions could be a mach and a sentry domi (the domi doesnt want to have horrible gallente standings).

Anyways, getting 3 instances of that mission at once is really rare, but since it always starts at enemies abound 1/5 (and 1-4/5 are great missions to make isk quickly), if you do get the mission you are set for 3 weeks for that single agent. 3 is the highest payout, but it takes a bit longer than 1/5 or 4/5. 5/5 takes too long to be worth grinding and doesn't drop as good of loot if I recall correctly. Also have to refit for it exclusively since it has a weird damage profile.

Hi

Over the last two weeks PLEX prices have jumped to over 600 million ISK and of course in true EvE Online style, the Part time players who protest when anything gets expensive, run to the forums and ***** and moan about PLEX prices.

So here my advice to you and proof that if you can't make the money, go back to Hello kitty Online. I am married with 4 kids and work a full time job from home and often go out on site. So i do not sit here non stop.

I have 4 accounts and 3 OF THEM are paid for by PLEX. I do not spend a penny more on EvE Online than i have to, your question will be, why? Why do you need 4? the answer is simple

1. Ice Miner - This nets me anywhere from 50-80mil a day on my third screen mining from normally downtime till around 2am whilst i work from home, occasionally drops if i have to go out on site.
2. PvP Char - training non stop PvP skills
3. exploration tengu/mission pilot - lvl 4 ***** in a tengu - easy 100mil a day in 4 hours
4. off grid booster training to be a capital pilot

My average income a week is about 2 bilion ISK give or take a few hundred (no i dont care who knows, its just me n rl mates who play as a team) No interest in moron corps run muppets

BUCK UP - The simple answer is i do not play in null, i do not run sleeper sites much and i do not pvp all that much.

if you want to have multiple accounts, learn how to utilize those accounts to make maximum ISK instead of wasting ISD time having to lock stupid pointless threads about PLEX prices. Learn, learn learn 2 play

its that simple, eve is player driven, if prices go up, adapt or die, its as simple as that

mmmmmkay?

so you get to play while you work. no wonder you have no issues with time. the first part of your post implies that your job is separate time, but it isn't. You also appear to play at lesat 4 hrs a day outside of your work time (or I guess you're getting paid whether or not you work), which means you spend a whole lot of time during each day playing eve in one way or another. some of us have REAL jobs that we actually have to go to. We also have wives who want to **** and talk and share lives. You'll forgive us, I hope, for not earning near as much.

Well you could say this but that is with one miner. however, most of my income is on my active chars i play when im nto working. My point is that even part time u can make the ISK PER MONTH to run 2/3 accounts easy and i do, with a social life, a very successful 10 yr relationship aswell.

Its not about *sitting there non stop* its about knowing how to play and learning from people
