Having trouble sleeping....pilot a freighter.

Man, those things are slow and it's not just the travel speed.....their align time will put you to sleep for sure.

It's like watching ice melt.

BTW...how easily popped are freighters in low/null sec? Since you cant add any mods to them you cant do much but they do seem to be pretty heavily tanked.

That's why you go for a jump freighter instead — it may cost 10× more, but the align times alone are worth it. P

Pre-Crucible, setting-up and tearing down a POS and its structures was far worse. Now just the towers are a snooze-fest.

or for 1x or 2x alt accounts in same Corp with webbers.

It does wonders for your align time.

Tbh i think Freigther pilot it's the most AFk profession in EVE i mean, my alt do it and i only need to check it once each 1-2 hours each 10-20 jumps!!

Now with extra relief since the ship autodocks in station Lol
