Hello!

I´m looking for a passive income source in addition or as an replacement to incursions. I was never interested in trading industry and PI, but I did some hauling.
I have access to nullsec areas but which are the best ways to make money in these fields?

It's going to be hard to replace incursion income with those activities.

PI is the easiest activity. Just get some minimal skills and try a planet or two to see if you find it too tedious. Recommend you start off with 'least effort' setup instead of 'most profitable' setup until you gain some experience.

Trading has the most profit potential if you enjoy it and have some talent for it.

Industry can be hard to make more money than you spend until you gain some market knowledge.

For PI, look at making POS Fuel components. So pick one of Enriched Uranium, Coolant or Consumer Electronics. These are always pretty easy to move on the market and an Epithal load runs around ~400m'ish ISK.

Personally, I dislike straight-to-P2 setups as the earning potential is kinda low. However one character will have trouble keeping a factory planet fully fed.

Depending on *effort* and how many characters you have running, you can make somewhere around 500m ISK/month/character. More effort, more return.
