In EVE you have to try and balance money and fun.

If you want to have the most fun you will make the least money

If you want to have the most money you will have the least fun

So decide which is more valuable to you or find the middle ground.

With Hulks being ganked left and right, I need a different way to make money. Haven't played in a while, so what is a fun way to make some isk? Maybe there is a mining ship not worth ganking?

I want to stay in empire for now till I get a feel for the game again... before I venture out into deeper waters (low sec, 0.0)


thank you for helping out.



I take it from this that you were a miner before. In light of this, you can try anything at all in this game and it will, invariably, end up being more fun than your original method of making isk.

It helps if you pant and drool when you do that. You may even get a nice chew toy for Christmas.

Talking dirty to guys who never see the light of day is always a fun way to pad my wallet.

Scamming people always looked like a lot of fun. Same with sui-ganking (plus you get to drink delicious tears)

Welcome to Eve. Everyone here is an Evil Sick Sadistic Bastard who is out to get you. Anyone who tells you otherwise is either trying to scam you or use you.

Honestly, the most fun way to make loads of cash is to scam it of someone.
+1 for this

I still smile every time I see my fully fitted Gila that I scammed for 10 million isk

Hulks are getting ganked left and right all over high-sec.
Only in certain areas.

The best part is that the killboards makes it really easy to tag those who are ganking so you can set them red and very easily watch local,

Gank miners and haulers is the most profitable activity in Eve, drawbacks are clearly set so you can easily get your standings back as long as you know how to do it.
Your wallet, provided you use some brains and alts/friends knowing what they're doing, will simply skyrocket.

One of the most fun ways I've found is to do Merc work. I spend most of my time just running missions and chatting to my mates, which doesn't net me a whole lot of ISK, but when an opportunity arises to go kill people for money, I'll take it. Big smile
