Missioning.
Mining.
INDUSTRY. Buy ammo blueprints, research. Mine/buy minerals, produce, sell in trade hub, rinse, repeat.
Station trading. Buy low, sell high.
Scam.
Fly around stealing from wrecks.
Sell your body (pod yourself repeatedly, scoop corpse, sell on contracts for more than med clone costs)
Sell other people's bodies (pod others, scoop corpse, sell on contracts)
Go wash cars IRL; $ is quicker to gain than ISK.
Ninja salvage mission runners.
Lowsec anomalies
Raid wormholes.

With 5 mill isk and a clone that's cheap to replace, you have nothing to lose and everything to win by going to null.

You could always go to Jita and wait for one of those rich philanthropist who offer to double or triple whatever amount of ISK you send them. Or you could get try somethings that are in this guide http://www.isktheguide.com/#dwnl

Why 'work' hours in-game to get the needed amount of ISK to buy plex when you can also get a plex if you work approx 1.5 hours a month in real life with minimum wage (of course this depends on where you live). This will give you more time having fun with EVE and will sooner or later become a way to easily pay for your account with ISK.

In short: fun > working for your plex

Make that 12 hours...

as the topic says whats the best way to make enough money for PLEX with a 6m sp character ? its mostly spent in amarr ships, so armor tanking and lasers gunnery.

last month ive spent time on skilling toward caldari missile ships, as ive lost abaddon in l4 worlds collide, i think. i find it easier to do missions with missile ships cuz there is no minimum range so i can shoot frigates scrambling me etc. thats how ive lost my bs. i could do nothing to against scramblers and player drones immidiately aggro some ships that kill them so they were useless as well.

my current plan is to go from drake to raven to start doing l4s but im left with 5m ISK and i just added gametime yday.
can i make anything out of the amarr skills ? like i could go for incursions ? i heard its good money
what other choices do i have ?


You're never going to afford a plex in HS with low skill points. My best advice, train a Tengu with HMLs & remote repping. Join a corp in w-space. Farm, farm, farm. Don't forget passive PI income. Compared to HS the income is phenomenal. Alone it won't pay for a plex for a single toon but it will make a very sizable contribution.

I bought a tengu alt with 7mil sp focused trained. He paid me back for the purchase in 3 months plus paid for his own plexes as well.

Once you get that skilling out of the way you'll also be an effective drake pilot plus a few minor tweak trains. After that, train whatever you want. It's probably the best isk generating SP investment you can make as a new player. A tengu will be useful for farming from C1's thru to C6's as well as much of k-space PVE.

Don't ban me, bro!

6m sp toon needs to buy PLEX. So youll need about 525mil (or less).

Well you could ***** yourself out to a hundred fat chicks for 5.25mil isk apiece..

or 5 REALLY fat chicks for 105mil apiece..

or Kathy Bates and never have to pay for subs again.

Since the cessation of their usefulness is imminent, may I appropriate your belongings?

As stated... It depends on where you live. Where I'm from the minimum wage is +/- € 10,00 for someone with the age of 23 or higher. The average price of a PLEX = € 17,55 - depending on how many you buy at once. So let's say work 2 hours in case you also need to pay the price of the bus-trip to- and from your job.

Generally the best way to make ISK in this game is to do something you find fun until you get better at it. You shouldn't have to work in the game just to play the game. It's always been a belief of mine that a game is no longer worth playing if it starts to feel more like work than a game.

Generally there are flavors of the month when it comes to making money. Before I took a hiatus from EVE everyone was talking about incursions to make fast cash, now apparently it's faction warfare. It's a lot like the california gold rush, somebody figures out a way to make a ton of money one way in EVE and for a while everyone else is trying to do the same, some succeeding but most failing.

Just find something you like to do and get good at it. Eventually you will start gaining enough money to buy PLEX and fund your other actions in EVE and have money to spare.
