EVE General Discussion

Scanning toon + combat pilot, run the hs cobat exploration sites and ls escelations.
Scanning toon can act as a covops scout whitch i felt was important enough to buy an aditional monitor for.

Dont tell anyone els though ... Its a secret.

incursions is the answer you are looking for.
+100mil/hour at least (aka you need only 10 hours in a month for a plex) .

there are plenty of guides and a couple of community that run incursions in highsec open to public.
the only thing you need to do is login and catch up with them.

requirements:
- can fly a battleship (pref faction battleship) or a shield logi
that's all :)

I appreciate the positive responses, thanks everyone.

Yeah I think you maybe right, I liked the idea of incursions above, ive never actually done those, my main has quite a few SP so I am sure the train into a suitable ship would be relatively short.

Yes I left for a more casual thing, but now that I am actually out in high sec, I am finding it… well dull. If I do industry ill need to get a corp with a bunch of BPOs that I could at least copy, or start a collection, although I was reading some posts on industry and making better cash away from the main trade hubs etc etc and I did try and use my limited knowledge of ingame and out of game stuff to try and find something but ended up wasting an hour looking at my screen thinking that is for someone that is feeling excited about this game.

The idea originally to have 2 accounts was to plex one account and pay for the other as I can afford one account with cash, to pay for a plex to turn into ISK isn’t suitable for my budget, perhaps I should aim to plex the account every other month, that of course would make thing much more affordable.

I think I just need to find something in game to capture that awe I had at the beginning, perhaps my move to HS was a mistake and is giving me some kind of culture shock lol, perhaps I should stick my main out in null again and just use the other 5 accounts in high sec to do the industry. as a way to try and make a plex every 2 months, that way it won’t be such a grind. I just need to find a decent corp to stick them in.

find a corp /alliance in null sec. Try exploration. Usual relic sites give, as a rule of thumb, about 10-80 millions/site, and data sites about 3-10 millions/site. Or use looted items from these sites for manufacturing.
Of course, depending on the population the area and the concurrence of other players doing explo, you will sometimes have to wait for a long time before you find a relic site, but i find it more pleasant than mining.

You can also run faction relic/data sites in WH C1-C3 with no sleeper attacking you, but remember that these sites won't give you more isks than usual relic/data sites whereas WH space is a little bit more dangerous.

And set up PI extraction/production. In null sec, you can earn at least 1 million per day per each planet just extracting P0 and producing P1 (old players will say you can earn much more, but i am a newbie). 6 alts x5 planets =30 planets, that means 30 millions per day, 900 millions per months, a PLEX. But it will require gestion/ hauling of PI for 30 planets, which will be boring, and different from the "relaxing game" you long for.



i totally agree with you

hi Wyk

The idea was to stay away from null sec, although I am beginning to think that that is not going to be possible. I've done the whole PI thing 33 planets, it is a click fest chore and yes boring, but it is good money, even if people don't think 900m a month is good from a WH.

Ive done explo too, inc WH (althogh I think C3 have sleepers dont they it is just C1 and C2 that have the faction sites (cannot remember though), this can be good but often found even in the null and low sec connections that there were not many sites around, I guess people did lots of them as they appear.

Perhaps I need to re-evaluate, perhaps I will have to go to null sec and the relatively non easy going eve life that I thought would be good.

No scanning toon, can be done hs and ls, maybe takes longer and is more demanding (harder) and more risky, but I like it.

hi Nat

One of my thoughts was to join a HS corp with POCOs so I could do P4, I really could not be arsed to do this is null or low, relying on others to JF entire shipments of P1, and no one does that stuff for free. If I was to do that it would need to be in high, even then probably starting at the P2 level. I have only had a little look but it seems that a lot of the corps in high sec that own poco are small, maybe holding corps

Yeah I am getting that impression. Knowing who those corps/alliances are is the issue, I think that I may try and research this a bit further, It is not always obvious from the stuff in the recruitment forums on who is who and what is what.

HIsec pocos automatically apply a 10% tax on top of the tax that is already applied by the corp that owns it. My old null corp used to only have a 7% tax. So yeah, 15% tax in a hisec poco vs 7% tax, not to mention nullsec planets are far, far, far, far, far, far better and extract more with more resources, so in most cases, even with JF costs, its more profitable.
