I don't think 15 mil/hour per character is far out of reach for L4 mission running. You should count the LP as well as the ISK rewards, bounties, and loot/salvage where applicable.


Blitzing L4 missions will earn you closer to ~100M ISK/hr. "Full clearing" L4 missions and contracting out the salvage will earn around 80M ISK/hr.

Wont change though i'm sure, haha.. anywho, i'm glad people can find me from forums, and know exactly where I am, that is fascinating but also unrealistic at the same time for a game that strives to be more on the realistic side

And what i meant by the salvage drones was, i will be surrounded by 30 wrecks, send them out, and they will go 1 wreck at a time instead of spreading out saving us a massive amount of time

Very easily applications could be put into this game making it have more realistic systems, as if a capsuleer wouldn't have the option to have his drones spread out to different wrecks to save time and salvage more efficiently, need to put that option in the game, and it would be relatively EASY.

Ive been on Xbox live before. The 12 year old gamers are the ones who spam and shout and swear. Im pretty sure that having more young players in EVE will not decrease the amount of disrespect or harshness.

And no, Salvage drones salvage on a chance-based system. So using 1 salvage drone on 1 wreck, and trying to salvage 5 wrecks at a time, will generally take the same time as using all 5 salvage drones on 1 wreck.

But asking for this in the name of realism, is sort of stupid. Nothing in eve is real. There is no such thing as warp gates. There is no such thing as Sansha. Caldari Prime does not exist. Gallente Federation does not exist. Sleepers do not exist. Dodixie does not exist. If we were trying to make a game that was real, EVE would not exist, because none of this actually exists out there in reality.

Maybe, but that requires well-skilled characters, and a pretty intense attention to the game, and doesn't account for bathroom breaks and the like. I was reacting to somebody who thought 30 million per hour (dual boxing) would be hard to achieve.

Frankly, I know a guy who claims to earn over 300mil/hour doing missions in nullsec, counting LP rewards and probably counting the high frequency of Burner missions you get there.

Or does it...

Who knows.


P.s. EVE is real.

this game is so confusing, but if i can become #1 in DUST (for 4 weeks) then i can manage EVE

Uhm. Go do the tutorials / career agents (hit F12 to see where the closest are to you).

Also, Dust =/= EVE....By miles. So no matter how good you are at Dust, that doesnt mean a thing in EVE.

Tbh, most bunnies Ive seen trying EVE ran away quickly very fast, cause it is a totally different game. The only similarly is that they are both happening in the same universe.

Technically...yes.

Practically, I hope you love to replace lost ships, as likely while you are sitting on the planet, you are a nice and easy target.
