This is the most popular game in octopus world, some can "play" 100 accounts without automated commands, Octopus are really incredible.

Well have fun multiboxing 100 accounts mining ice after patch. Big smileBig smileBig smileBig smile


I'm sure they will. Fleet warping your alts to an anomaly is no different than fleet warping to a static belt.

And considering the ice spawn mechanics have been up on SiSi for weeks, most bot software has probably already been altered to compensate, as well.

There's a mechanic I don't understand:

What level of efficiency do you gain for each extra account you have mining? After all, each account needs to pay for itself, ie a PLEX per month, so 10 accounts need to generate 10x times as much.

Does the process simply work out because people that do this simply do it 23/7? So even if the extra amount from say 10 accounts mining is just an extra 10%, that 10% comes out being extra billions?

I apparently have no idea what I'm doing.

He mines about 2.5 bil a day I think? that's 5 plex a day, so after all that he makes profit on the long term

Break even is 3 accounts: 2 mining ships, 1 orca. After that, each account grants 150% of the base yield of that type of mining ship.

This also means that if you need to make X ISK to fund your FW alt, if you run N mining alts you only need to make X/N profit per alt. Thus the more alts you have, the lower the profit you need to make but the higher the profit you actually do make.

At today's rates, you need to mine about 1500 blocks per month per account to fund the account through PLEX. This equates to running the mining fleet for approximately 33 hours per month, or about an hour per weekday and four hours on the weekends. In fact, I'd go so far as to suggest that it's the number of hours per month that casual ice miners can comfortably collect ice that is the major pressure on PLEX prices at present. If monthly income from ice harvesting is lowered due to the Odyssey expansion, expect to see PLEX prices to fall by the same proportion.

I was just laughing because I am in his/her fleet .
It is called Operation White Carebear and let any miners enjoy the full bonuses of his/her fleet for a tip we choose .
So yes his/her fleet is huge ( more than 100 sometimes) but almost composed of single account player like me .

Last time I ask , his/her operation is like 2 years old but would probably dies with the next patch .
This is a true great idea Sal Com come up with , win-win situation for all miners.
Sorry but no 100 bot accounts , just a lot of miners gathering in the same fleet.
and no bilions of billions ISK made Bear

Likely Multiboxing with ISBoxer, just like the subjects of most other threads like this.


Agreed the dude is probably ISboxing big time before the Odyssey change hits. His use of procurors instead of retrievers means he's a bit jumpy about suicide ganks. I bet after the ice change he'll consolidate his ice horde and retire 3/4 (at least ) of these accounts

Just them being in a player corp and alliance points to multiboxing. Almost all the bots I have ever seen were in NPC corps so they can avoid the hassles of war decs.
