A question about bounties.

I'm curious about what I could best do to collect large sums of ISK as a bounty on me (other then just placing one on myself). Thanks for the input and suggestions.

Scamming in trade hubs seems to work quite well for some people to get huge bounty pools. Ganking in the name of CODE (or just RP after ganking someone) can also work but you lose some of it. Being a jerk in local to people, missions flipping and just asking can also work.

Complain loudly (but believably) in your local trade hub about someone having put a bounty on you.

If you get the tone just right and the trolls (read locals) think it will bother you they won't be able to resist adding to itBlink

I recently got an 80m bounty for popping some guy's MTU, I wouldn't recommend it though, took nearly 200 MTU kills to get that bounty.

What Ralph said is probably your best bet.

I've tried MTUs and got a great kill-mail out of them. 400M frig I think I'll try the trade hub idea, or try to gank someone. Thanks for the advice.

You would be amazed what sitting in a Tornado or Thrasher on a trade hub can do. Just keep popping people, eventually you will get the bounty you want. As a bonus, you get lots of kill rights against you, which can be really fun at times. Just fly cheap, and you will get rewarded.

Also, if you want to **** someone off, role-playing a Blood Raider, or other opposed faction, in the Amarr RP areas/channels can be really funny. I'm in Sixth Empire, and love combining the two by Tornadoing people and trolling Provi on the Amarr undock.

Go for quality not quantity. Nearly all of mine is a billion ISK lump from one easily annoyed rich idiot.

Rich idiots best idiots.
Most of mine came from a single satisfied customer who forgot to use the neuts on his orthrus until my incursus was already lance deep in his structure.

Come hell or high water, this sick world will know I was here.
