If you have to ask the question then you already know the answer.

You have refined sensibilities and a profound sense of fashion. Go on with your bad self!

I took the Aurum too, after 5 and a half years the other stuff was meh. Why does CCP hate the bittervets? Sad

I took Aurum as well. Must be ready for ship skins and the return of Quetzalcoatl next December, whichever comes first.

remap seemed a no-brainer to me.

Take the remap to make ISK quicker so you can buy MORE AURUM. Metagaming at its finest.

How could a remap possibly make ISK quicker, does total SP somehow get used as a multiplier on the bounties people receive, manufacturing time or trade tax?

I took the 2000 AUR on both chars as ship skins are coming and they'll no doubt be costing (a reasonable amount of, or CCP has gotten too much rotten shark again) AURUM.

I took the Aurum, because all the others were either A: Not very helpful (I've yet to get to the neckbeardian level required to bother using one of my 3 remaps) or B: Tiny bundles of ISK that don't really offer anything potentially interesting in the future considering the rate at which I'm currently making money.

I mean, who knows, they might add something to the NEX some day. May as well get all the free AUR.

…weeeell. I suppose you could have picked the Echelon and gotten less out of the gift that way, so you don't qualify as all bad — just 98% across the line. Lol


AUR… Lol

2k aur is currently like 1m isk or so?

you are not really a bad person just because you made a mistake.

how to fix eve: 1) remove ECM 2) rename dampeners to ECM 3) add new anti-drone ewar for caldari 4) give offgrid boosters ongrid combat value

That is pretty sad, especially if you're an old player like say 1 year or more.

It makes you stupid. It has horrible ISK-efficiency. Free Aurum given out in the past tanked clothes prices. If you wanted clothes, you could get more by taking the +3 implants, selling them, then buying the clothes with ISK. There are other gifts that do the same thing too.

Anyone who takes Aurum is an idiot. Not because they want clothes, but because there are more efficient ways to get clothes. Taking Aurum gets you a shirt or boots. Taking the +3 set gets you the shirt and the boots. Your call.
