Calm down miner. As you pointed out, people think they can get away with stuff they would not in rl... Like for example illegal mining... - Ima Wreckyou*

nullsec sov ratting or wormholes is probably the only way to make high amounts

In between all your characters, what is the MAXIMUM ISK per hour you can top if you really want?


If exploration is included, then guarding EVE Gate from Blood raiders is quite profitable. I made 1 B in drop from commander yesterday running 6/10. It was something like hour or hour and a half.

But I don't really have that ISK now, I don't even know if I will take that loot out from low sec, with my tendention to hoard mounds of loot and flying thru gate camps risking the shortest route.

~100M / h with L4s.

More with 0.0 ratting, even morw in wspace.

You can make ~2-3B /H with 5-6 ppl in C5/C6 space with escals. Thats about 500m/h per person. But unlike L4s, you can not do it all day since the amount of anoms is limited. You can maybe do 2-3, on good days 5-6 anoms, depending on how many you have, so about 1-3h/day.

If you want "unlimited" supply, either do 0.0 ratting in upgraded systems or L4s if you don't own sov.

Last time I was in Jita there were plenty alts of Nullsec Alliance CEOs who will double your ISK for free. So you can make billions just by giving huge amounts of cash to these people. I never knew it's that easy.

Fascinating! May I ask why people prefer converting lifetime to ISK, instead of converting money to ISK? It seems to have the best conversion rate and thus also offers the highest amount of fun per hour, as less time is wasted for making money.

I realise that work in the real life costs time as well, but the gain is much higher.

Id rather use rl cash on holidays than internet spaceships. You can earn hefty sums of isk afk anyway.

I'm losing around 30milj isk hour. Sometimes more depending on how much fun I have. Still far from bankrupt though.

The going rate is ~800 mil per click now, I believe.

Assume a tic is an hr, if we play 20 hrs a week a very casual amount for EVE. That's 16 Billion ISK a month, 180 billion a year.

it costs less than 10 billion to plex an account for a year.

Translation: The number is rubbish.

Sustainable income in EVE is around 12-15 mill an hr.


He obviously ment buying plex with rl cash and selling it for isk P hence per click and not per tick (in-game tick = 20min) Blink

10-20mil/hr low sec ratting with a fair chance at some fat rats or fancy tags. Same for high sec mining minus the fat rats or fancy tags or fun or excitement.

Amen and +1 to that. While I'm glad people decide to use rl money for plex (which feeds the plex market I survive on) it's mystifying to me how incredibly bad one has to be to not be able to accumulate 27 million isk per day (the daily price of a plex) per character.

Hmm, 20 minutes a day of doing some kind of pve in a video game while drinking beer and watching that hot bleached blonde dragon chick with the "suggestive lips" from Game of Thrones on my other monitor, OR getting dressed, driving to work and working overtime while usually not drinking beer?

Hmmm, tough choice there. Twisted

Calling it "being bad" doesn't make you look "good". I understand that not everyone can afford this, but there is nothing superior in wasting even 20 minutes on something completely unnecessary. That's 20 minutes a day I can use for something better.

I apologize for expressing myself in a way you might not understand, so I will try to go down to your level.

"lol poor noob has no money for PLEX get a job loser"

I feel bad for talking this way and I hope you realize that your post makes you look like a teenager.

Good day, Ms. Aside.

Oddly, that's the point. The "get a job" people are the ones that look down their noses at people who are good at making in game isk (and who thusly use plex to pay their subs). I have a job, but since pve is easy and I enjoy it, I just do that instead. Most of the 'get a job and buy a plex' folks are PVP-only types who are kind of incapable of understanding that 'fun' is subjective.

I'm simply saying "good for you if you think working a real job just to play a video game is the way to go, ima be butt ass naked drinking beer playing that same video game and plexing while you sweat".

I'm sorry for touching your nerves. I promise I will not do it again. You are, of course, not only the better player, but also the better person. The 20 minutes you spend on your TV getting off by looking at a character on screen you will never be able to touch or talk to clearly beat how I spend my time.

I'm sorry for even replying to you and your superiority is, of course, noted by everyone.
