EVE General Discussion

Missions & Complexes section can help you i think.

generally your income depends on the dps you are putting out.
running lv4 missions alone can be inefficient without the right dps.

also where do you live? HS i presume
also never tried to rat in null sec?

etc there are many options.
need more details, for example the ships you can fly etc

This guide should provide you with the info you require to get up to 200 mil/hr in highsec. Even if you are lacking the skills, ships and funds you should be able to take the info in it and improve your low income right away. Plus it gives you a goal to work towards

You're being too honest.

You don't start the timer until you're in the mission and fire the first shot. You stop the timer the moment you hand in the mission. You don't count time to the mission. Nor any time involved in setting up your mission ship, converting the LP or salvage to Isk, or breaks between missions. You don't count the cost of ammunition, other charges or lost drones and you calculate the value of salvage and LP based on the best possible sell price. Without regard for any cost to get it to market, ignoring taxes and broker fees, or any losses when you give up on the 0.1 isk game and finally sell it to that buy order 20% lower. If you are unfortunate enough to lose a ship in a mission or a hauler to a gank on the way to the market, well those losses just don't count. Finally you mark up the calculated value by 30% to allow for the fact that you could have done it faster and more efficiently, but for the wife, gf, cat, brat aggro etc.

I'm sure you can squeeze 40M an hour out if you just lie.

Nullsec anomalies in a 100mn Afterburner Navy Vexor. 15m per tick at the very least.

The guide he gave you also makes all those assumptions that Trant mentioned. I.E. it takes pure best case scenarios and certain other magic tricks to claim those numbers. The reality is you can halve the numbers anyone claims highsec players earn regulary, and that is more likely to be a legitimate figure for their real income. Certain groups just have an agenda that involves making highsec seem too good.

However, mining & gas in low end Wh's your figures seem accurate. Missions you seem a bit low. Make sure the LP is valuable, some LP gets near 2k isk/LP in a reliable way and missions most of your income is in the LP, so if you are doing missions for the wrong corp that will explain it. If you can turn 50/hour on missions you are actually doing well in terms of sustainable missioning.

Get the mach first, the rest for running the burner missions can follow but the mach is the important one. Should drastically reduce your training time. Dont worry about using the mach early on in the training, you can get away with the basics and keep on improving as you go.

If you could provide your current fit I'll be able to see what you could get away with just by training into the hull.

Yes, there are WAY better corps. This is something you have to figure out using two resources

eve agents
LP store database

Figuring out stuff in game yourself faster and better than others will make you more fun/hour and isk/hour in the long run.

It is really a game of brains over brawn.

If you can fly battleships, take a look at incursions. There are several communities out there to run with. Even with the more friendly/forgiving groups you can make 120mil an hour.. this includes insurance and ammo costs.. You will have some travel times when they move but beyond that... I've yet to find something in this game that makes so much isk for the amount of effort you have to put in.

The more aggressive groups is 150 to 180mil an hour. You can plex the account in a long day of running them.. or even with just a couple of days at a few hours a night.

In additon Anize Onamaras burner mission guide baltec gave you, here is a pretty good post giving you some ideas about what you can do where.
A bit dated with the citadel changes but still very close.

Also, as has been said, try incursions. If you can fly Maelstrom you can join an incursion fleet. IMO Incursions are the BEST way for a newish player that can fly a BS to isk up to do other things. This is the best guide I've found.
Lastly, the best place to ask quesitons like this is not this secion, but rather the missions and complexes section. Here you go: https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=topics&f=248

Wondering nobody mentioned exploration yet ... it's RNG based per site but relic hunting in the right nullsec region can net you ~100-150M ISK/h if you spend about 4h a stint.
