Hi

At what time is eve online the most busiest? I'm asking because im going to sell my character and i need to do it under 4 hours, so i need the best possible time to sell it, when there is lot of activity in eve.

If possible i would like to get the time in gmt.

Thank you

Hello again Mollo Big smile

Your best bet would be to post your thread around 17:00 GMT as peak time is around 18:00. That should give you a nice window of opportunity to get your character sold.

Best of luck to you.

If you are planning to do it with hours for plex the account has to be active for at least 10 for the transfer to go through and you must post with that character in the character bazaar. Just a heads up.

Always willing to help all you have to do is ask, though if you're in the other fleet I may not help the way you want. Just a heads up. Pub Channel: Lost Souls Trading Post

You can't sell the character with just Hours4PLEX.

This is cause during the entire transferring program your account has to be active. The transfer itself takes 10h, not taking time till you find a buyer into account.

If I may intercede on Mollo's behalf here, should he manage to find a buyer within the time limit, as long as that individual transfers the ISK then Mollo can use some of that ISK to reactivate his account and pay for the transfer to begin immediately. This is all dependant on Mollo making enough ISK to pay for both the reactivation and the additional cost of transferring the character.

That of course it totally true.

Though he would need to find a buyer and make enough money for at least 3 PLEX.

1 for the activation of his account
2 for the character transfer fee.

Any money he gets beyond that will be profit.

Though usually people will only pay the amount of ISK that a character is worth (skills based) + 1bil (for the 2 PLEX that the transfer costs).

But it is possible, though usually you are competing with other selling characters and people likely shop around quite a bit.

Thank you everyone for replies. I think my character is worth 7-8b, but i will be selling it for b/o of 6b and then use 3 plexes from that to activate account and transfer the character. Gotta sell cheap to make it happen in such a sort period of time. Might even go lower than that, but i wount sell under 5b.

EDIT: It's cruiser specialized (2 races min, amarr) with 24m skill points and no weasted sp. If someone looking for character like this let me know.

My impression is that Sunday is the busiest day of the week. I'm not sure if EVE is more popular in North America or in Europe, but probably anywhen from a few hours before noon Central European Time, and until the Californians go to bed. If you need a 4-hour window, the ideal time may be when it's kinda late in Europe but not too early in the USA.
