Hey everyone,

This is probably a stupid question and one which may have been answered elsewhere, I just can't find it. But how do you use Plex to upgrade to omega? Like how many Plex does it take and where is the option to do it on the upgrade screen or whatever? Any answers would be really appreciated.

Cheers

You just used to use it and boom, you were omega. Now you need to move them to plex vault if they arent there already and use from there. You need to buy it ingame for isk first obviously.

Hi there,

A 30 day subscription costs 500 PLEX.

To use your PLEX, you need to move it to your PLEX Vault. You can find this vault by pressing Alt+C, while docked in a station. On the left side of your inventory window there will be an option to view your PLEX Vault. Once you have a stack of 500 PLEX there, you should be able to press a button to add 30 days of game time.

If you do not have PLEX yet, you can buy plex on the regional market (Alt+R), from the Eve Online website https://secure.eveonline.com/PLEX/. Alternatively you can purchase game time from CCP's website as well: https://secure.eveonline.com/AddGametime/.

Open your inventory and check the PLEX Vault (available from everywhere).

500 PELX is required for 30 days on OMEGA account.

You can buy PLEX from in game markets (1.4B ISK for 500PLEX) or from CCP site ($19.99 for 500PLEX).

Tip. If you need to unlock the OMEGA account then buy game time better ($14.95/mo.). PLEX is better to use to inject some ISK into your business, to buy skill injectors, to buy some stuff from Eden Store (like skins). To convert PLEX to OMEGA is ok if you bought it with ISK only. The most popular 6 months of OMEGA game time costs $71.70 ($11.95/mo.) which lets you save $18.00 totally.

The optimal one year OMEGA package. If you can buy 12 months of OMEGA subscription for $131.40 then get it and you will save $48.00, which will let you buy addition 2 months of subscription or 1100 PLEX. The best option for your addition $48 is to activate 2 months for 1 addition character training (like Mining ALT) or 1 month for 2 addition characters ALTs (like Mining and Warefare ALT).

If you are going to buy PLEX with real-life money for the purpose of upgrading your clone to Omega status, it is cheaper in real-life money to buy game time from the CCP official site instead.

For some reason, it keep opening the new eden store and wanting to buy more game time. When I clearly have 500 plex in my valt. Is their a bug were I can't add more game time?
