If people could afford to buy plex to bring ingame they would have dual accounts



Wrong. I plex fortnightly. Used to use it to boost my isk to spend on more ships to lose. Now I can spend it on something more productive and train an alt to open a holding corp for new recruits to go into for special training (ie pvp dueling without ruining the corp's reputation due to awoxing) or 'relative safety' in the case of unexpected wardecs that we don't have sufficient intel for.

I have no interest in running a second account, and even if I did, I would have no way to multibox it on my low-end hardware with a processor that overheats at 85 degrees C. This dual character training is the highlight of the expansion for me... well, that and my new Navy Brutix...

Which I'm sure is going to explode soon.

I wouldn't make two accounts, and then spend 4 plexes to train 2 PI alts, taking 2 weeks each.

Instead 1 plex will approximately cover this. Or one PI alt with CCU V. This is indeed my plan :)

Also, nice to training small specialized alts.
