People would be more willing to fly a frigate then a T2 cruiser in PVP. Why? Because its cheaper. Hence cost does in fact effect peoples risk aversion Look at RvB as a prime example, people flock to it because its combat in cheap ships.

A frigate is also much less efficient. People will fly a T2 cruiser when it's necessary for the task. Once again, I've never seen a decent pvper (let's face it, month-olds don't fly HACs anyway) say "sorry guys, can't afford the Zealot today, gonna show up in the Punisher instead." Also, cost per se has very little to do with RvB, and the prevalence of tech I ships in that environment.

This is true between the time that drone alloys was added in as well as L4s and low meta refinement as you stated. However since both those have been removed low end minerals primarily come from high-sec miners.

So you're saying that low-end minerals might revert from their free-flowing, depressed state? Are you saying this is a certain bad thing? Well, it might be; I don't have a crystal ball, however, I'm betting against it. A rise in the price of low-ends will shift the risk-reward equation in favor of miners, who will reap increased profit while facing similar costs, seeing as how Tritanium doesn't affect their equipment expenditures too severely.

In most cases people will kill whatever they can find. In the end people generally only care about padding their KB stats, quality is nice but quantity makes people feel more important.

This is an assumption and therefore an invalid argument.

Before you edited your post, you seemed to give in to/digress from the other points I made, so I won't go further. Unless you want me to.

I wrote some true EVE stories! And no, they're not of the generic "my 0.0 alliance had lots of 0.0 fleets and took a lot of 0.0 space" sort. Check them out here:

Yup, my 2 Billion a week with mining, PI, Missions, and Manufacturing BY MYSELF (we are all independent in Corp) and a few other odds and ends, is just so pathetic.

You have no clue what you speak of TBH.


Your quote of 2 billion a week is about right for a solo character doing all of those things. however the point was not that you could make a ton while incorporating mining, but that manufacturing, market trading, and mission running, make more per hour in hisec than mining.

Oh and you really should tool up to do research agents. Your missing out on easy isk yo

There aren't enough of that useless ship around. Mine is only good for Gas Cloud Mining tbh since it can fit 5 turrets and has ok Cargo. That's it. Really.

No. You need around 1bil worth of Tornadoes with T2 fit to gank one in 1.0. Hence entertaining.

They are too terrified to write one, so it's scattered bits in Forums atm.

NEWSFLASH Hulkageddoners - you haven't killed any miners... You have destroyed a few ships but KILLED no-one

Because you can't in this GAME.

Now get a life and get out into null-sec and have a REAL fight instead of being hi-sec bullies - LOL like that will happen

I am aware of my own ignorance and have checked my emotional quotient - thanks for asking

It's not so much bullying as it is mincing. A CRIMINAL amount of mincing.

Its so funny how the whiny bear posters don't realize that Hulkageddon is something we do when we take a break from real fights, which is what we do the OTHER 11 months of the year. teehee.

I speak of Goons, not thyself.

The Goons see no distinction in Hulkageddon and 'the other 11 months'. You of all people should not be so blind to so, so.... too, too.... obvious actions.

And I still say it's a bunch of mincing. One of them even demonstrated the technique on stage !
