Missions & Complexes

So with widespread adoption looking imminent, my original post stands.

I used to get 5,000-6,000 ISK / LP on some items. (Repub Fleet TE's). Now, that number has been decimated by various game mechanic changes, not involved with this one.

But it is an example of how bad this can indeed impact on income, when there is a flood of Empire Navy LP into items than crossover into other LP stores.

Assuming 1k isk/ LP, the LP reward theoretically completely replaces the 15% held by the ESS. However, you still have the cost of the ESS, the volume of it, the potential for blue drama, and the fact that LP will be less than 1k/LP, and are a PITA to retrieve. When thinking about ALL of nullsec bounties everywhere, from every activity, I think the proportion that happen with an ESS deployed will be significant, but not anywhere close to 50%.

if you are running for sisters, and blitzing properly, its about 2/3rds of your income, its by no means supplemental to a good mission runner, it is the method by which mission runner incomes can reach over 100m/hr.

In any case the change to moongoo to increase null alliance income reliance on pilot activity has literally given a mission runner a choice of 200 non strategic corps to recruit themselves into null without having to sign onto structure grinds or blobs at all - ie its not as if this stuff is -hard to access- anymore. Seriously think people ought to drop the whole null/not null thing, its so easy for a bear to move...

and yes I'll be recruiting soon, and yes the terms will be generous - ie I'll probably wind up basically insulating corp members from the costs of renting the system. Given different tax regimes in different corps it may actually be more wallet isk to shoot my hubs than it will be to shoot someone elses forsaken hubs.

Except of course the devaluation of Navy LP means heavy mission runners will move to non-Navy LP stores, and drive down prices there as well. As planned, our slow destruction of the income in High sec is continuing.

Of course it makes sense, if your mommy goes to work with you to keep you safe, you shouldn't expect to make the same amount of money as an adult.

Chokepoint, disband dot, a couple of other gangs whos tags escape me and occasionally mordus angels are seen in Vale, and are not in anyway affected by the above deal. Nor would the above deal have prevented the TEMP invasion.

However those entities are out for fun, where as PL and the CFC murder pets for keeps when they get going, so from the extracting rent perspective, that is plain due diligence.

In any case, the benefits of the deal are accessible to the garden variety bear via renting or getting recruited.

True on the 1st part.
The ESS in the original form was punitative to null sec players, arbitrary , and badly designed.

But this new version, now is equally punitative to high sec mission runners, while a gift to null sec players.
That is equally wrong.

Here you are gloating, so I know it will be good for null and bad for high sec.

mayby its the time to move to nullsec...

Confirming the point of eve is to fly more missions to earn more isk to fly more missions to... fly more missions.

Confirming this guy is right, there is only one way to play eve, and this is the right way.

Thank you random dude, you really understand what eve is all about, you saved us all from play eve the wrong way, ccp should given you some kind of reward.
