Assuming 3 hours of game play in a day, what level of t2 fitted t1 hulls do you feel the following hi sec careers should earn isk wise? (basically wondering how much isk grinding do you think each career path should you have to do to cover in pvp expenses)

Average Level 4 mission runner (this means battleship, average skills)
Low skill retriever miner
High skill hulk/mac miner
Planet interaction specialist only (assume a full 24 hour planet cycle)
T1 manufacturer
T2 manufacturer
Incursion runner

In other word:
Average lvl 4 missioner: 2 t2 fitted cruisers in a day
Low skill miner: 1 t2 fitted frig
High skill miner: 1 t2 fitted cruiser
Pi: 1 t2 fitted frig
T1 manufacture: 1 t2 fitted frig every 2 days
T2 mod: 1 t2 fitted cruiser
Incursion runner: no clue.

hisec activities should only cover the cost of merlin hulls, maybe a caracal.

I can only speak for myself, but I make as much as the effort I put in. That is the way it should work, if someone can make 200 mil in that 3 hours, they deserve it. If someone makes 20 mil in that 3 hours, they deserve it.

I'm a nerd, you can check my stats!! Skilling Int/Mem at 45 sp per minute is how I mack!     I'm like a lapdog, all bark no bite.

You get out what you put in.


ISK/hr concept should be shot in the face.

CCP probably want people in high sec to earn enough isk to pay for plex. Some people feel high sec profits are too high, but those high sec profits are what keeps CCP in business.

Oh god.

I know several nullsec people who rat there faces off to plex their accounts. I would say just as many people from nullsec PLEX tehir accounts than highsec. Especially when you can rat for just a few hours in nullsec and buy a PLEX and they do this for 2 or 3 accounts

It should be impossible to make enough isk for plex in hisec imo. Having the safest activities in game generate enough isk to plex your characters goes against the risk-vs-reward ethos of EVE Online.

Besides, it's a stupid goal anyway, because look what happened when incursionfaucets were introduced: Plex prices jumped.

Highsec income should be 3,000,000 ISK per day regardless of activity, and T2 hulls or anything larger than a cruiser should be banned.

But it doesn't go against the profitable business ethos of CCP.

CCP want plex prices to jump. Higher plex prices means more people are inclined to buy plex. If plex was unavailable to high-sec players, the price of plex would drop to 250m each. No-one would buy plex, they'd just paypal isk from Johnny Chinese instead.

Oh god.

So, highsec dwellers should just be paid a flat rate no matter what they do?


uh..... no. You would have people parking alts in highsec just to get the income and never undock
