Hi,

first let me tell you I know what a looong way it will be. But I can't imagine what I'd rather do in EVE than what's in the Subject.

I did search Google and Youtube, all I found was that it's not worth to manufacture drugs. Well, if it's fun for me, it is worth it for me.

What I need is a kick in to the right direction. What skills etc.
Any good up to date guides/tutorials?

I have a second account which provides me with the required ISK.

I heard a rumour that Hedonistic Imperative might be involved in booster production. You might want to keep yopur eyes open for someone selling drop, or exile, or similar stuff. They might have a couple of pointers.

But I'd like to emphasise I've never met nobody, mkay.

This is a bit of an older guide, so it may be out of date. http://www.eve-guides.com/poss/booster_index.php

Eve Tribune did a 3-part series a few years ago that I thought was impressive. Might want to look that up. There is some stuff in the Evelopedia as well but it's not as comprehensive as the eve-tribune articles IIRC.

Here are some old booster production guides I've found. Basically you get gas, process it and then just throw the mats in a drug lab.

And it is VERY profitable!

Not mykoserocin/synth/hi sec drugs, but the Cytoserocin/standard/nul type. 'Blue pill is the biggest seller. Start there.

Start off with Ladar Exploration skills and practice. Then obviously gas harvesting with a venture. Then POS skills to run a lab.

Bear in mind the lab can only be done in a 0.2 system or lower, so you will need low sec time served to do that successfully.

It is a huge project solo as well. But you sound like you'd enjoy it.

I made my first few billion with boosters.

Drugs are bad


Seriously, if you can produce boosters and find a market for them in null...I think you can make some money from it.

The issue is that booster related gas (for the good boosters, not the synth ones) come from null-sec, so good chance that the blueprints is already there and that they produce their own.

Chivas, give me a shout in game.
There's quite a few misconceptions about boosters, a couple of which have already been posted Blink

Here is the official Eve Online Wiki page on the subject: http://wiki.eveonline.com/en/wiki/Combat_Boosters#Manufacturing_combat_boosters

I used this to set up my own operation a while back
