Define best? For ISK or PVP, or both?

Venal is pretty good for pvp. N3 to the east. CFC to the north. Goons stronghold to the west and lowsec to the south.

Syndicate obviously.

It's even good for exploration as well as fights.

Delve isn't too bad for PVP either, I hear. At least the one constellation that's NPC owned.

Enjoying the rain today? ;)

For varied fun fights the smart money is probably on Syndicate or Curse - lots of small-medium entities and gangs as well as the occasional larger fleet rolling through.

Delve isn't good from personal experience. It very small so not many systems for a small entity to occupy. And goons and Test run rampant in there along with a few other big alliances with gatecamps common at most times. If you check on kills in the last 24 hours there are a couple of systems in Delve which is commonly the second most violent system in Eve and ocassionaly it is top. It seems like the big alliances playground.

Providence hands down; there's plenty to do all the time, everything from single reds that may or may not be hot droppers to 50 man doctrine fleets running around. If you are in a holder alliance there's always 6-12 blue fleets up, either mining or PVP, from small gang lowsec roams to 100 pilot CTA doctrine fleets for grinding structures to local defense and ratting.

NRDS means there's always neutrals around, some of these are spies some droppers some are just good bait for reds. Some people don't like all the neutrals around but I think it would be boring without them. And honestly I've seen more damage done by Awoxers than neutrals.

There's plenty of anoms and belt rats and rocks if you want to mine. When mining you do have to get out to a refinery; but we have plenty of fairly safe lowsec systems with refineries or you can fill freight containers and just hire a JF when needed, there's plenty of them in Provi and they generally have some room on the outbound leg.

Best of all you are defiantly not part of a blue doughnut alliance, and you get a complimentary "This ship survived Provistan!" bumper sticker.

Alternate logo's include "Provi-blok parking only" or "Provistan! Because freedom is another word for nothing left to loose!"

Syndicate has the better layout, Curse has better neighbouring regions and probably more going on at the moment.

As for making money in NPC regions. Curse might have an edge because of the angel epic arc. But if you are looking at npc nul regions for money making oppertunities you are doing it wrong.

Delve since it doesn't matter who owns it - they collapse in the most spectacular fashion. Like watching a building explode over hours instead of seconds.

^This.

Close enough to Provi to find all kinds of people to shoot. Twisted

or ... in my case, die to. Oops

From what I've seen, this is exactly the opposite to how it usually works.

Then again, it's good if you're right, meaning there is stuff to do everywhere.

Speak for yourself, I made more ISK than I knew what to do with in Curse.
