Just out of curiosity, whats that new source of lowsec income? Got back from hiatus recently and most of my initial fundraising for a pvp binge has been in null. It seemed to me the lowsec exploration market has crashed, and there were complaints on fw income.

It depends a little bit on how long this hiatus has been, and some of the buffs (such as clone tags) have indeed reached a certain market equilibrium. But for instance Mordus BPC drops and 0.4 moon mining (soon) are again small buffs interesting for the singular pilot. Take the changes to sec stat gains. Take the changes on sentry guns (for piratical styles of income). It is only logical none of them are exempt to inflation. Sure, if you are min-maxing income to pay for unrelated PVP activities then null is probably the better choice. Heck, pvp groups can claim hisec POCO's nowadays and nothing is stopping lowsec groups to get a piece of that pie, which brings an interesting dynamics with the ability to bribe back your sec stat nowadays. Plainly living in lowsec and running it's content pays for enough ships to make it harder for other people to run said content, increasing market value of it's rewards.

And wtf, someone can't differentiate between a minimal skillset for a hull and mastering the skillset for that hull lol.


I've been playing 7 years on my oldest characters (I have 4 accounts now), I don't have 'mastery' of any ship and I'm doing just fine.

Are you telling me that you sit around and do nothing till you have 'mastery' of something? If so, that's crazy.

I would never suggest that null (or any other section of New Eden) is for everyone or that anyone 'needs' to do anything. I am, however, continually surprised by all the excuse making and chest thumping people do. We get it, you high sec, low sec and wormhole guys think you're better than 'gewns' and co because you press F1 AND F2 when you pvp in a video game lol. In fact, I'm sure telling some female in a night club about your prowess in a video game's low security space is sure to lead to intercourse Twisted

When a buddy asked me why I didn't live in a wormhole like he did, I said "wormholes are great because they are tough, not really my style though" and was done with. I didn't make some silly excuse about how it takes more than 12 months to fly a tengu.....

That reminds me, one of the guys in Fweddit mentioned when they got too large they were autoblobbing people simply by reputation, so they came to nullsec to get fights. Though they have recently become a CFC member alliance, seems they're happy in their home in FWland

I asked a very small gang fc years ago (who is one of the best I've ever fleeted with) why they don't use an ewar boat in place of logi if they're fighting outnumbered. He replied that basically they have to look attractive enough to get a fight, to the point of dumbing down their doctrines and limiting numbers, and using Ewar is a massive no-no. Soon as you field one, the other side go in a huff, refuse to fight and sit in station sobbing about blobbing and ewar for weeks. Same with OP settups. Kind of sad that people are so terrified of good settups, but the wierd honour code is there in null in a way too (ie, don't primary the fc etc).

We primary the FC when we can kill the bricktanked ship. It's not uncommon at all. You claim ehonoure when you know you can't alpha it.

Or bring more guys. Which solves everything.


Fweddit guys are better at using the ewar than we were, actually they were the ones to note instead of using just one type of damp (can't remember which was the standard), we should use both types of scripts as well as using blackbirds. But this of course means you have an ewar group that's very significant compared to the enemy size (like 1 ewar boat for every 2 enemies or something).

We had a lot of newbies at that point in time, they might be getting into battleships (F1) by now...

No, please do stay in highsec skilltraining forever. Thanks.

I think I had a 6-7 month character that was able to run the C3 sites solo. Not bad.

Made more cash by applying 8+ characters to mining a belt...

I spent several months in a 0.0 alliance, and found it annoying on many levels, including the annoying politics, intra-alliance corporate superiority complexes, awoxing, a corp thief leading to suspicion and finger-pointing until he finally cleaned everything out and ran, cramped space, and corp officers who went AWOL when the shooting started. It was almost a relief when we got punted out - it was interesting learning to tank my Dominix against two different titans (that was back when doomsdays were AoE), but it wasn't much fun, since we didn't have any super-caps and our main FC turned out to be working with the invaders.

I had more fun colonizing wormholes solo afterwards, and haven't joined someone else's corp since -- that experience left me with trust issues. I do still visit wormholes, but seldom non-wh 0.0: gate camps with insta-lock Thrashers are a nuisance!

The fact that I just came back today after a year off, and have far too much crap to sell from my stint in FW. I plan to leave the green numbers behind before the week is out though.

Thank you for the compliment - I'm glad you consider our bodies to have first class components. But if you're talking about my lamenting in the Rolled Out closing-down thread about now never knowing who the father is ... I was joking. Oops

In fact my girls and I never mix business with pleasure, and we're all quite single with quite empty pixellated wombs thank you very much. Attention

Like I'd ever touch that ******* Jester... Roll

He's so gross.

But there's a wonderful space invention called birth control.

Even though our legs are currently repressed under ridiculous fashion laws that prevent us from wearing dresses properly, it's still good to know our sexual liberty is on par with the times. Ain't nobody got time for babies.

Well better move quickly Mr McWaffle and get your business done before that hole collapses. Start shoving everything through it really, really quickly - but watch your size, you don't want your logistics ending prematurely. Enjoy the hole while it lasts and don't be sad when it's gone because there'll always be another fresh one waiting... somewhere. Make the most of the time you have with every hole you encounter, live in the moment and don't get too caught up on the future.

Well ain't that the truth. Mother does seem to have a wild penchant for breeding. Roll

Although she's not a capsuleer, and so has plenty of time for that.

And ... well, yeah. I suppose she does feel that way sometimes about me, but I've got no plans to settle down just yet, so she'll be waiting a long time to become a grandmother. That's not to say I'm completely celibate though, or never been on a space date. In fact who's to say I'm not quietly seeing someone already ...
