How would you best use them to earn yourself some good isks?
Mining is what I been doing atm and its still only earns me about 1-1.5bill a day and that is if I mine for 8hours+.
Anyone got a better idea of how to best utilize that many accounts for isk making?
Give me some good ideas and if it works better then what I am currently doing then there might be some rewards for you.

Sell the characters for isk and play with one toon, more fun. Less work.
I think you need to reconsider your definition of fun if you need 5 accounts lol.

Lots of mission running maybe? Or could try going further up the manufacturing chain, I assume you just mine and sell ore/mins? --- There are two sides to the EVE community; those that scream for change and those that scream against it. Often they are the same person. |

If I had 5 accounts I'd ask myself if I really didn't have anything better to do with my life.

Well.. Thats a lot of accounts. It might be better to ask yourself WHY you need to make money. Do you go though it that fast? Are you saving for something? I couldn't be paid enough to babysit rocks for eight plus hours a day. Hell.. You could get some start up capital and play Blink for hour or less and make that much. Or, nothing at all sometimes. Point is, there is better ways, almost anything besides mining to bring in the isk. Sanctums pay well. Trade can pay better if you are good at it.

At one time I had 5 accounts running for t2/t3 invention and production line. However after awhile it became too much and inactivity set in.

I hear that if you get three vacations on a row for 5 or more accounts, CCP will pay a full expenses covered trip to Iceland as a price.

Edited by: Ghoest on 03/06/2011 09:59:34 I only have 1 account.
I can imagine how a second account could be useful and actually make the game easier but I dont want it. I really dont see how a 3rd 4th and 5th account could do anything except make EVE less fun.

Obviously selling the toons on the accounts is not an option. As far as the need for a lot of isks. My isk goes to my expensive hahits which is PvPing in expensive ships and gears. And GTC's. Thus the need for isks. As for as your accusations of bot running I been reported to CCP before and never once have I been banned due to it. That I think should tell you something. I hate mining though but find that is the only viable option for me in terms of stable isks. So thus I am looking for other viable options capable of supplying me with more isks then before and less boring then mining. I thought my Q is pretty straightforward how people is still able to derail it is beyond me.
My thanks to those that attempted to come up with some solutions though. Although I am still looking for one I would be interested in pursuing. Missions I don't see how I can make more isks doing that then mining. Trading is more a hassle then Mining imo. WH and Incursions seems to much of a hassle as well and actually requires a lot of work which also rely on to much luck for my taste. As for gambling never been much of a gambler.

Have a read of the Making ISK guide, it will provide you some ideas.
The suggestions for mission running aren't too far off the mark - you can make more ISK/hr semi-AFK missioning. Get your characters running RR BS gangs and you'll find missions go quite easily.
Manufacturing, invention, reactions, market watching - plenty of things you can do on the side with that many accounts. The limit is how much real time you're willing to pour into it. -- [Aussie players: join ANZAC channel] |

try manufacturing. each account is 30 manufacturing and research slots. even low income item can give good income when multiplied by 50. however it must be high enough income to at least earn a plex per month and everything over than is pure income :)
the best thing about manufacturing is that you set it up for a few days and don't need to login until it's done .. well except for the preparations for the next production batch and selling stuff.

I think you need to reconsider your definition of fun if you need 5 accounts lol.
I don't get it, I have ONE toon, I have 20 billion isk, plus billions spent and billions blown up.
I started with the same as everybody, no skills, no isk, no knowing wtf to do in Eve. I don't buy isk; I don't run many accounts, I don't run exploits and macros.
I Play eve, I have fun doing it and am richer than most older toons I have met.
Why can't you play with one toon like a normal person?
Are you a farmer? I really question those with many accounts for their use of exploits and automation and other such exploitive software.
Perhaps CCP should packet watch those with MANY accounts as they probably have more need to bot and more likely to bot.
I have two accounts and I couldn't imagine playing with only one.
Second account is like my swiss army knife:
Pos Gunner, Cloaked Orca for wormholes, Second combat BS for missions, Perfect builder (t1 and t3), can do invention and the list just goes on and on and on and on.
My second account let me turn Sader in to a perfectly trained zero sp wasted combat character while still allowing me to do other things.
So sorry, I don't know how YOU play with one account, because I could never go back to just one.

That's easy, I don't GRIND in eve, I dont consider EVE a JOB, I just go out there and do whatever takes my fancy that day.
I can do anything, produce, gank, loot, pirate, mission, trade etc.
If I need more than that, I pay somebody to do something for me.
If I do something that ****es people off, I don't go and run behind alts, I wait for them to come to me. They usually are all huff puff and don't do anything :(
So much for risk reward and consequences.

Good Question the only thing stopping me form making the 1.0+ each day is the mining part. Its boring as hell takes me awhile to get setup and halfway there I find myself sidetracked. Thus I need to figure out other options that hopefully wont cause that.

Miilla, I know you get alot of flak on these boards at times, I dont post as much as I read... But I will say you took the words right out of my mouth. You need more than 1 Bil+ a Day? WTH kind of witchery is this? I guess you could be losing ALOT to some 0.0 war (/snicker) but seriously if you have been making that much in a short time let alone a long one... you need nothing but to have your head checked, and lay off multi-accounts. Makes you look like a "player". |

I can't believe you weren't botting doing all that but if you weren't that doesn't sound like fun, it doesn't really sound like fun either way.
With all that capital you could jump into manufacturing or trade and make some pretty nice margins while being AFK. Also, depending on how you set your business up most of your time will be in station. So when CQ comes you can run around your room while browsing the internet instead of looking at your ship from different angles.

Usually because Miilla posts weapons grade cr*p.
In any case the OP is free to use as many accounts as he wishes, although 5 may be a tad excessive ;). Personally, I'm like Sader; I have my main combat pilot then a swiss army knife support pilot that handles anything that isn't blowing people up. Hacking, probing, etc. --- There are two sides to the EVE community; those that scream for change and those that scream against it. Often they are the same person. |

Well for me it's pointless to have so manz accounts :/
1 = was too few, I lacked an industrial alt 2 = perfect, got one pvp/pve person, one industrial alt 3 = a bit of a waste, can't efficiently manage 3 at a time, unless they are just mining 4 = can't even have 4 clients on at the same time undocked or the client gets unplayable fps rate, plus it's not really fun to have so many toons really 5 = never had so many before now, now I got a few dozen because of the plex-for-buddy system, cyno alts everywhere, but those won't be too useful once they expire, may be needed one day...
So yeah, most fun and most efficient playing - 2 accounts tops, at least for me. With 5, stay with mining. Orca + 4 hulks and you can mine a lot, refine a lot and thanks to that build a lot. I'd go for capital production if I were you.

You don't need a bot to run that many characters to mine with. I ran 3 miners and an Orca character without a bot before. It isn't as difficult as you think if you run eve windowed so all you have to do is click the icon for the proper character in the taskbar.

Either PvP in expensive ships, or pay for your account using GTC.
Alternately, join a mercenary corp so someone else will be paying you to PvP in expensive ships.
Originally by: Amarr Praxis Arareb Missions I don't see how I can make more isks doing that then mining.
Mining in hisec will top out at about 7M ISK/hr. Mission running in hisec will net 10M ISK/hr in a T2-fit T1 hull, with minimal interaction, with the income rising from there as you spend more on offensive weaponry, pirate hulls instead of standard T1, or move into Marauders.
Or run incursions, earning around 60M ISK/hr for the one character, and leave your other characters harvesting ice.

You know, any "normal" person with 1 account (?) and playing in some reasonable way does about 1 to 3billion PER MONTH.
I've already got a lot to do with a single account, but I do have a second one witch I can't play at the same time for every thing else than put in some belt and take a look time to time -when I remember- if he's cargo's full or if he got ganked once again by some Anti-bot batmobile just because he's afk or he has 1M fees for convo
Why don't you just sell 3 of them and try to do something else? - I mean other than run for isk, seems you already have some piles of it so why don't you try something else?

Trust me, I am right on topic... What are you using those flasy billions and billions for, really? I mean do you suck at PvP or something, your Corp is failing so you need more?
Maybe your bored cause your running 5 ACCOUNTS!

Do I suck at PvP or something, my Corp is failing so I need more? Maybe so, maybe not, again whats it's relevance to my original question of what would you do if you had 5+accounts question? You starting to look like someone with a chip on his shoulder. Why do you need to know the reason behind it if you cant come up with a better solution then what I am already doing then why even bother? Reason behind my inquire is to see if someone is able to come up with a better solution then what I am already doing. Not why I am doing it etc etc..

Why don't you mine 18 hours per day? This would improve your income!

This is where I am right on topic, there are so many ways to make money in this game, more money than mining... I suspect your short-sightedness is from all that brain numbing 5 account playing, mining crud. I don't have a chip on my shoulder, you just smell fishy man, real stinky like a ****** who has his hands cut off maybe? |

Being someone who has 5+ accounts, the best way to make money without doing much, would firstly be PI, takes like a week to get okish skills and 5 planets, so with 5 accounts, your looking at 25 planets, which is about 5mins work a day.
Second thing, takes a little more time, but deffinatly worth it! R&D agents, take for example Lai Dai, run missions on one account and get level 4 missions, then have the other accounts in fleet when you finish level 4's, this will boost the standings of all your chars, train up the skill for more agents, voila, each account, 5 R&D agents, passive income of datacores.

Since the OP seems to consider playing the game a hassle in many activities, then just set up your bot and let tehm mine 24h/7d like most botters do.

I am not sure how good this will do but I'll make another attempt in hopes that your mind can comprehend anything of what I been trying to convey to you all along.
I Am Already Mining And I Am Bored With It However Mining So Far Is The Only Thing Capable Of Providing Me Over A Billion A Day Thanks To Me Using 5+ Accounts. My Question Thus Is If Someone Else Can Come Up With Another Solution For Me To Make Isks Utilizing 5+ Accounts Other Then Mining? Obviously I Am To Shortsighted To Figure Out On My Own And Thus I Ask In Here In Hopes That Someone Less Shortsighted Can Provide Me With A Solution Rather Then Just Asking Stupid Questions That Borderlines To Interrogation And Name Calling Due To His Own Short-Sightedness.
I asked you nicely to lay off on my earlier replies to you unless you have something actually on topic and so far you have provided me with none. Instead you resorted to continuing with this ridiculous inquires of your own and name calling. If someone stinks in here Sir then that is you.

That's basically the same idea I have PI and R&D agents. Makes for a nice passive income and I can do some mining on occasions. Still looking to see if there are any other viable options.
Bot running I don't even consider as a viable option for obvious reasons.

Multiboxing is fun actually. You should try it. It's not like an "i win" button, I've gotten myself into situations where I almost lost, or have lost ships because I'm trying to manage the tank on 2 different characters at the same time. I blew through 3 drakes on level 4 WC and almost a Maelstrom one night lol.
I like dragging my alt along in an Orca as a mobile base when I want to scan down sites too. You also get the ability to try more parts of the game by specializing your other characters' skill sets without having to stop training your main.
One of these days I want to try multiboxing a gate camp lol That will be quite interesting I'm sure.
Since the first time I multiboxed an MMO, I have a hard time not multiboxing now. It's just boring to me to play 1 character at a time. - [SERVICE] Corp Standings For POS anchoring |

Trading. Buy low, sell high. You have significant capital from your mining activities to run a trading venture on a high level. Put characters from your 5 accounts into 5 different regions with high trading volume (Forge, Heimatar, Domain, Sinq Laison and a fifth of your choice). Watch the market, find the items with biggest profit and adjust your buy and sell orders in the trade hubs. It's not as free of work as PI and R&D though, but there are rumours that in trading is the big money.

Bloody hell, can't anyone take a joke on these boards any more? I used to quite happily mine / mission with 3 accounts across three machines (each was just good enough to happily run one client) and PvP on 2 accounts.
That said, it is the mining for 8+ hours per day that was the bot giveaway.

I am a reformed multi-boxer myself. Couldn't keep up with the extra characters anymore and it seemed a waste. Used the accounts to train bazaar characters for a few years then slowly canned them one by one as the characters sold this year. Currently down to two accounts and I really agree with the legion poster, it feels like the sweet spot. One industry focused character to take care of logistics, trading, building, and whatnot with a main for all the actual spaceship stuff.

I have 5 accounts and I use them for different uses. I Treat EVE Online as a hobbie than just a game like BF2 etc. EVE online is so deep compared to move games. Also I been playing since 04.
So what Do i use them for? Mining Trading Production Missions and starting to branch into research. Time to time Ratting
I had a IPO and I really enjoyed using share holder investment to get the ships I need and start off. I enjoyed working hard getting isk and earning money like a real corp money as well. I also help using my resources to make a good environment and help to other players.
Now going to sound lame but EVE makes me happy as RL just freaking sucks. Sure I can make alot of money in 2 accounts but again I like my way of playing.
These so called people who are coming over righteous pricks "why don't you play eve with one toon like normal people" I am sorry but Narrow minded much? I say most eve players have 2 or more accounts.

Most eve players have more than that and it's tragic. More alts, less teamwork, greater odds to overcome for every single-account player out there.

I never had more than 1 account in any game but I can understand that in EVE having two can be very useful. You simply can't rely on having an available friend in the right ship at the right place all the time.

You see, I would if it wasn't for the horrible security options in regards to, well, anything to do with eve. Ever tried pos management/roles? Doesn't really allow for much: You have two options, allow someone to walk away with everything you own, or restrict them to everything.
I do not trust a single eve player with my stuff, especially corporation stuff. There for it's in my best interest to just run a research pos solo.

you do have a good point about team work to be honest. I had 5 accounts for a long time but I have noticed as CEO over time people are less and less incline to work as a team. They pretty much come in and just want to get rich and not give a **** about anything else. One I do have issue with are one over 5 accounts. ------------------------------------

I have 10 accounts.
The thing is this. I have isk, I am not allowed to do RMT, so what do I do with the isk?..
Generally I log in no more than 3 accounts, but some of them I log in to catch up on mfgring jobs... One hour with 8 accounts can be like 3 weeks with installing & waiting & reinstalling & waiting & yadda,yadda,yadda.....
I also keep some chars in specific areas so I dont have to move about to do combat stuff... But to each their own ;). ----------- Never Forget the joy of finding a main to link to a scammer alt. N-y-p-h-u-r ! ! |

go train at least two to be scientists. go learn research project management 5 and learn some rocket science or starship engineering. then go make standings with lai dai or some other r & d corp at least 6 .0. get 6 lvl 4 agents and cash in every 6 months all the research points for datacores from all your agents.

I think you need to reconsider your definition of fun if you need 5 accounts lol.
I don't get it, I have ONE toon, I have 20 billion isk, plus billions spent and billions blown up.
I started with the same as everybody, no skills, no isk, no knowing wtf to do in Eve. I don't buy isk; I don't run many accounts, I don't run exploits and macros.
I Play eve, I have fun doing it and am richer than most older toons I have met.
Why can't you play with one toon like a normal person?
Are you a farmer? I really question those with many accounts for their use of exploits and automation and other such exploitive software.
Perhaps CCP should packet watch those with MANY accounts as they probably have more need to bot and more likely to bot.
wow, miilla speaks wisdom...but there's got to be a scam in his post somewhere. --

As someone who's set up POS in nullsec since before your character existed, I think I can assure you 5 accounts is NOT required to manage one.
Again: More friends, less alts. You will not regret taking this leap of faith neck-beard. I promise you that.

Miilla, I know you get alot of flak on these boards at times, I dont post as much as I read... But I will say you took the words right out of my mouth. You need more than 1 Bil+ a Day? WTH kind of witchery is this? I guess you could be losing ALOT to some 0.0 war (/snicker) but seriously if you have been making that much in a short time let alone a long one... you need nothing but to have your head checked, and lay off multi-accounts. Makes you look like a "player".
I could try and explain to you why I need it but if you have not yet managed to grasp the why trough all of my other replies, then I feel its a waste of effort on my side to even attempt to do it so I choose not to do so. Instead I'll ask you to contribute to a solution to the problem I am inquiring about instead of going off topic and if you find yourself unable to do so then I'll have to ask you nicely to just stay silent. And keep your own off topic thoughts to yourself.
Thanks
Trust me, I am right on topic... What are you using those flasy billions and billions for, really? I mean do you suck at PvP or something, your Corp is failing so you need more?
Maybe your bored cause your running 5 ACCOUNTS!
Seriously if you can't find another way to make money (I shouldn't nor should anyone here have to tell you how)other than mining, its new game time bro.
Trust me, your not... What am I using those flasy billions and billions for, really? Seriously is not of your concern and I don't really see how knowing that would help you come up with a solution. Do I suck at PvP or something, my Corp is failing so I need more? Maybe so, maybe not, again whats it's relevance to my original question of what would you do if you had 5+accounts question? You starting to look like someone with a chip on his shoulder. Why do you need to know the reason behind it if you cant come up with a better solution then what I am already doing then why even bother? Reason behind my inquire is to see if someone is able to come up with a better solution then what I am already doing. Not why I am doing it etc etc..
People are such sanctimonious busybodies. They aren't happy unless they understand and approve of your motivations. To hell with them...

maybe, but if you're only mining it's not a requirement.
I suspect that with all those miners you'd have a place in a 0.0 corp working on improving the industrial score and the value of the belts.
Mine when things are slow. work on a combat pilot in your group and if something stirs, park the industrials and play your combat pilot.
