He said 25 an hour which means no salvaging or looting.
Can happen if you're pretty new to the game and you lack some skills.

Doesn't anybody just start new toons anymore?

Oh yes, we do. I start new "toons" all the time. Probably because I enjoy character creation even more than actually playing the game... OopsLol

Steal a MoM. 20 bill +

Steal from Corporate assets. 1 bill +

Make some friends and scout for rare freighter load. Once in a while unnamed characters move stuff to trade hubs secretly. If you can pop that freighter - it can be anywhere between 5 bill and 40 bill.

Spend 1300 USD and buy roughly 66 plexes.

Sell your vehicle, get 5000 USD - 20 000 USD, buy 10 characters!

a 100 mill sp char should only cost you about 17 bill ish. not even depends what that char has if it has titan skills for dd max jump drive skills titan 4-5 then 17 bill is resonable.

i had a guy try and sell me a 70 mill sp toon for 21 bill when it was only worth 13 bill.


I would like to buy all your 100m sp characters for 17bn isk. Kthnx.

Actually, these days, the extent of our planning time is the delay between pressing F1 and collecting the goods. About a second.

Hi there I would like to know for all you rich players out there what is the best way to make 40 billion isk +. I am not looking for exact ways as those are classified to you but I am trying to get a 100 mill sp char and I am looking at potential sources. I recently put in the calculator that if I do level 4 missions 4 hours a day 7 days a week I will get 40 billion isk in around 350 days if I make 25 mill an hour. So that is very long and boring but it's a way. I am just wondering one of the best ways shy of stealing it or it being given to me to make this amount of cash so I can get a 100 mill sp char. Any answers are welcome and thank you for your time

You can

  • either go the boring route and become a human almost-bot, simply buying low and selling high. (Good judgement in choosing what to trade in still required.)
  • or you can go the more fun route and play the market. Make sure you subscribe to the devblog RSS feed, so you can race home whenever relevant information goes public. Make sure you religiously follow dev posts on the forum. Also pick a CSM close to you and get into his pants. Professionals probably live in Reykjavik and woo the devs themselves, but I don't like the weather. If the next patch is not nigh, manipulate prices yourself and be agressive in driving competitors out (easiest done with trading bots, but more fun with humans).

Fly around looking for shuttles with Capital ship blueprints in them. Pop them and profit. Its about as easy as that really.

The other suggestions are boring and too time consuming. I look forward to hearing about your new 100M SP character. Hopefully it will fly a Titan and pwn everyone in Jita.

you can buy a 100mil SP character, but... in reality you are unable to do any serious job, simply because you don't have the critical component that goes together......... "experience".
As another fellow said, EVE isn't about billions only, it's a journey and you have to be patient and enjoy the route.
Otherwise sooner or later you are going to quit

Have you considered wormhole space for a reasonable challenge and good isk?

The Making ISK guide has some ideas. Note that the best way to make ISK is to get other people to make it for you, and take their ISK from them. Being the CEO of a corporation that specialises in Incursion running or mission running might help, just set the tax rate to a perfectly reasonable 5% and get a few dozen mad-keen mission runners: the world is your oyster.

Even better, you can take two bites of the cherry by becoming an industrialist and selling your corpmates ammo and modules.

Farming high end wormholes with 20 or so people who know what the **** will net you about 40b in a month.

For all the hurf blurf that people do about high, null, Incursions, Mining, etc. wormholes are the best/easiest money there is. Keep it secret, keep it safe Cool

^^^ this, so very much this.

Most of my fun in Eve comes from utilising what (relatively) few skill points I have in order to try new ways of enjoying the game.

Hidden truth. The more skill points you have, the less you enjoy the game.

Yes you are

Just a FYI usually my lossmails don't have drops in them so all is destroyed ..... Roll

We are all born ignorant, but one must work hard to remain stupid.

Be careful son. Half the suggestions here almost require that 100m SP character you're trying to buy.

This is rubbish btw, 15-20 mil sp maybe.
