Just curious, I recently started back with eve, and I heard about the massive ISK fountian that was FW. My question is, how is it after the patch/nerf?

Thanks!

Apparently with about 7 bantam alts you can cash in billions of isk.

1bil/hour per char if you're doing it right.

So did they really ''fix'' anything? or is it still broken?

Accept as many FW missions simultaneously as you can, then complete them all for massive LP. The "restricting" factor on FW missions was meant to be the travel time from mission to mission but if you accept loads you'll have only short travels between different ones and hence some insane isk/hour. They can easily be completed in any ship with the range and speed to kite the NPC.

good idea, but theres a finite amount of EVE activities that don't bore me, and sadly missions are not in the mix

You get extremely creative with your LP value estimates.


Realistically for the vast majority of ISK farmers the income has been dramatically reduced, 1-200m/hr is considered good now where before it would have been considered poor

LP cash in values have increased tremendously and continue to trend upwards. Just look at implant prices.

Implants give what, 750ISK:LP? So running L4s you can get what 400k LP/hr in a bomber? So 300m/hr and that is generous. Far from 1bn per account.

I don't think that was meant to be the restricting factor. It balances out because half the time someone tries to kill you, so you have to move onto the next and come back later. I've waited as long as 2-3 hours for some chump to finally stop camping the mission i need to do.

Jesus, guys. The first rule of factional warfare is you DO NOT TALK about factional warfare.

Na FW is just as broken as it's always been.. likely worse now than it's ever been, because hoards of low skill point alts of people not really involved in FW now determine who can dock in what system. FW = Farm Wars.

Plexing Novice plexes in a frigate would get you 10000LP every 10 minutes.

Buying the best datacores with LP will net you about 1900 ISK per LP.

Which works out at 114million per hour.

Gives you a rough idea on the plexing front.

You kite all the DPS and just blow up the target which is usually easy to hit with torps

Now, more than ever, we need a dislike button.

300m an hour is consistently achieved by optimizing routes and taking and accepting as many missions as possible. So yeah, in terms of isk/hr and where to make it

1. FW

2. highsec market work/trading/incursions/L4 farming

3. nullsec lol
