Wormholes

i can you give somethhing to consider.


Manuf... in a WH is ofc possible but why would u want do it?

Your Pos can easy be reinforced, your Hauler can easily be ganked and to haul all that stuff is a nightmare. Syrsly you gain no advantage... or let me say only one.. You can Produce in secred nobody can know what you Prod..

But dude its not worth it.....

The ORE BELTS dont spawn frequent... everybody in wh looove to gank thos hulk/vengaces

Wouldnt do it. if you do, respect for that level of masochism

No point at all in building anything in WHs that you can build in HS.

People won't RF a pos just because you're doing manufacturing if thats your concern. As long as the pos has proper defense people will most likely leave you alone especially in a c4. Although the points that others have brought up are valid concerns.

If they reinforce your pos send us a message we will come pew for free :)

I manufacture stuff in wormholes but nothing that requires a large amount of ore. If i could upgrade my pos with a refinery that had a 100% yield, i would probably consider manufacturing ships.

Sure you can manufacture in WH's. However, aside from small scale producing for just yourself/a few people (note, not full time), I highly doubt manufacturing ships and modules would be worth it. T3 cruisers are the only maybe, but even then I'm not sure it would be enough to be worth fueling a POS for it.

So what other types of manufacturing? Well, you could run reactions, and it is safer for a small timer to run reactions in a WH than in lowsec. But you still run into the issue of volume - namely, you're tossing a lot of volume through the WH's, which leads to lots of extra logistics, and the possibility of loosing some ships to someone ganking you. Still viable with proper market research though. Speaking as someone who has previously run multiple towers for reactions in the past though, you are going to hate yourself if you go down this path... Managing POS's is by far the most likely thing to lead to eve-burnout in my experience.

So that pretty much leaves PI. And while PI can certaintly make you a decent amount of isk, in anything other than a C1 its really just some isk on the side, not something worth basing the majority of your WH money-making out of.

I see X-L ship assembly pos's, super-lab'd pos's and obvious carebear production pos's in WH space all the time, usually in C3 holes. They're very rarely attacked, for two reasons. One, they usually indicate the defender has at least one cap, which makes a supcap fleet rather difficult to field. Two, a reinforce timer of more than 24 hours means having to find another route back to the attacker's home WH after killing your tower.


TL;DR Put your reinforce timer to above 24 hours, have at least a carrier and a moros if not more to defend.

not right now. I've been playing other games and skilling in eve (which is pretty much playing eve). I'm thinking of moving back into a c4/c3 with a few people and was curious if manufacturing was worth it. From what I've seen so far, I'll probably just stick to making stuff from PI.

Logistics has never been much of a problem. I've spent 90% of my time playing eve in a wh and I had good guidance when I started out. It would be bit more of a hassle than doing everything in HS, but there's something about having a secret manufacturing facility in w-space that really strikes me the right way.

I really, really like the idea of having an illegal drug manufacturing setup in w-space. That's why I play eve.

I once made good ISK with Reactions. and WH space is more secure for me than low/0.0 sec. but it is still risky, because it needs quite some assets, which you put on risk.
The main reason WH sucks for Industry, is the logistics. so I would only consider it with a higsec static.
