EVE General Discussion

When I run missions in high people say I don't make that much per hour, flat out lying.

When I write a script to record isk per hour they say the data sample isn't large enough.

When I run anomalies in wormholes they say it isn't sustainable.

They had some bullshit excuse why I wasn't making as much money doing Incursions, but it was pre nerf and now there's some other bullshit reason.

When I rat in low/null I cant make that much because people can show up, therefore not sustainable...

It's the internet, people talk so much **** its unreal. RL example real quick. I used to live in Phoenix, AZ and race radio controlled cars, electric ones with electronic speed controls. I used to put a computer fan on the speed control's heat sink to keep the temp low enough to keep the thermal protection circuit from activating. I got told by literally hundreds of people (on internet forums) that I was stupid because "that would never work". Years later, almost every ESC comes with its own fan. Protip, learn what works for you and forget what "they" say.

CCP has the hard numbers and knows if you're bullshitting about your income or not. And they are the ones who have to balance the game. Arguing on the forums about how much an individual person can make is futile. CCP cares about how much the average min/maxer that can read a metagaming website can make. When its too much, they do something about it.

Which brings me back to the OP (who has probably biomassed by now in shame), the loot table change is just another subtle hisec nerf. Marauders are not marauding as much as they could previously maraud.

It is less income than w-space and null, and has been nerfed repeatedly. Unfortunately the only slightly higher income in low is mostly outweighed by the much higher risk, hopefully someday CCP will find a fix for that. If YOU can't make more money in another sector of space shame on YOU.

People who don't want to fight will ALWAYS flock to hisec. Lowering the income below what they are willing to play for will only make them quit the game. It has been repeated ad infinitum.

ITT, its because some people feel that the sand is cheaper where there are less bullies (to kick over the sandcastles), and it isnt "fair"™.

Please explain how the area of space with either lowest or second lowest isk faucet (Low & High aren't separable under the figures we have from CCP atm, but together are lower than both WH & Null) is unbalancing the EVE Economy?

High is somewhere between 3-5 times lower isk faucet than Null. Depending on exactly where certain insurances come from (Chances are most insurance comes from Null also as Insured dreads give a lot, but we can't be sure on that).

And produces far lower PI, hardly any dead space loot, no officer loot, hardly any T2 Salvage, hardly any BPC's of note, no moon goo, and worse mining incomes if we want to talk about non isk faucet incomes available in high sec.
Low also has FW LP which we know can produce a very large effective income.

So, please explain to me how it breaks EVE's economy without resorting to the argument of 'High sec makes more isk' because I debunked that myth already.

When?

.....9000 lp for many missions one of which you can do in a shuttle

100m is low end if you have any clue what you are doing.

Likewise, that 90m on null is only with a carrier or pirate battleship, ishtar and tengu make about half of that. Otherwise it's how many accounts you can throw at the issue

Oh and I also dodged a trap where some dude in a nullified covert cyno Tengu logged off in the anom with a spy alt watching for the next idiot to warp in. He logged in, landed out of scram range, started burning to me, and the only reason I didn't lose a 2.5b isk battleship plus an expensive clone was because he couldn't tackle me.

Roll back these mining ship buffs. Needing a brutix to kill a mackinaw is ridiculous.

Well why don't we just get rid of mining all together then. Lose a good portion of the player base and eventually close the game. Your letting your personal feelings drive your posts and fail to take others into consideration. So in short, you can't always have it your way.

My game was considerably more fulfilling when I could kill a miner in a 15 mil isk ship. I used to solo kill these bastards in a catalyst and now I need a brutix?

Maybe you should learn to be pvp bro
