Red frog do what they do because of isk per hour... and their work requires big investment (5+ bill ship) and good planning and still , the risk is there if a mistake is done I was at Evestardam. At a presentation given there on Red Frog Freight by Gnaeus Crassus I learned that on average a RFF pilot earns around 8 million per hour. On a good day.... So no, they do not do it for the ludicrous amounts of Isk, there are other factors why they choose that path in EvE, as corebloodbrothers quite rightfully stated (albeit in other words).

WH's do add isk to the economy. They are actually the second largest isk faucet. The largest being null sec bounties. (Based on CCP saying last year that 72% of rats are killed in null sec and bounties being by far the largest faucet, no new figures exist on the ratio of kills) NPC Buy orders for WH loot.

Not everyone in null rats in a carrier and since the warp mechanics revamp even less do. Most people in the CFC (to my knowledge) think you deserve to die if you are carrier ratting these days.

I believe everyone needs to keep in mind that once the jump range nerf is implemented moving items and ships (specifically ships) to null sec will become more expensive (on top of the price increase from the increased jump fuel usage).

I agree this would be ideal but only if there were a couple activities that needed nerfing. The thing is the activities vary drastically in payout and risk so strategy (I feel) does not/can not be applied to this situation.

Nerfing High Sec Income any more than its been nerfed is ridiculous. Newbies and Carebears need to have enough isk to be comfortable risking life in low sec or null sec if that is the goal here. There will always be those who dont want to PVP but for those that do, building isk rather easily is essential. WITHOUT having to buy plex to support a PVP based gamestyle.
Keep in mind, I say this as a grown man, with a wife and kids and a career who can only play one account and even that game time is very limited so perhaps I'm being a bit biased here. I am not some spoiled rich kid who can play EVE instead of actually having a real life, with 12 accounts grinding missions, sites and industry all day and night as an alliance lemming.
I used to just buy plex to support PVP when I was in a Corp and flew with a great bunch of mates. But then I realized how ludicrous it was that the game doesn't offer an easier way to make enough passive ISK to support even my limited PVP habits... with ONE account. As a matter of fact, it seems that CCP has done a lot to make sure people like me can't make any real ISK.... just look what POCO's did to PI and look what they did to mission loot. So I refuse to buy plex and am trying to make the game work as designed... with one account and my game time based on having a real life.
So here I sit, grinding out a LVL 4 mission or two a few nights a week attempting to acquire a nest of ISK so I can get back into some PVP...
If more people got down to one account (which is only realistic, actually) , stopped buying plex and tried to utilize the in-game mechanics to support their game play with their ONE account... what then would happen to EVE Online? Perhaps it's time every player gave it a shot...even for just one month. Get down to one account (you can reactivate them later) No one buys any plex... and play the game with what you earn with that one account. I dare you. ;)

And no one wil use ishtar to make calculation for income in hisec, because you don't see people doing missions in ishtars. you see them do it in faction battleships and marauders.
So you are saying if you don't look at local you can die..... What a surprise. Which is.... exactly what I said but in reverse. The point to using Ishtars to compare to in highsec is to accurately compare relative income using the same ship. Since you 'can' use Faction BS's and Marauders in Null also. The risk is admittedly significantly higher, but you are trying to compare apples & banana's here and then using that to come to erroneous conclusions. Obviously if you run lvl 4's in a frigate it's going to be lower income also, (if not negative income) but that doesn't mean lvl 4's are negative income. Controls and standardised tests people, it's basic science. What you are trying is commonly called spin doctoring, or more accurately abusing statistics by misrepresenting them.
So i guess you missed my post in this thread, you know, with actual links as well as my own experiences (comparing my more expensive ratting machariel to my 'stoicfaux' fit high sec lvl 3 machariel. Your level of denial of facts that other people have tested and you haven't is both amzaing and sad.
How insane is it that people who can't link to a single shred of evidence that can be tested and recreated can at the same time doubt people who have? |

To achieve this level of isk/hour you need to be contesting frequently (and winning). This means that the true isk/hour/pilot, is lower then that since half the pilots that participated did not get isk.
Also, if you are not contesting, that means you were able to do straight TCRCs, because you had other fleet(s) doing the NRF and TPPHs. This also means that YOUR isk/hour might have been at that, but the overall isk/hour of everyone in the system you were running in, was much lower.
I also won't mention the fact that you need to move 20+ jumps quite often and get at least 10 people together before you can start making any of that isk as well.
Out of all the other isk/hour scenarios you provided, you do not need nearly the number of people as you do for incursions. Have fun making that 180 mil/hour in incursions when it's just you and your alt account. Lowering the average to make you look better since 2012. |

I dont have an alt in incursions, thats one character only I don't do frequent contest since .. u know, in these days there are quick popping of moms rather than contesting Perhaps u missed the fact that LP worth isk and they are included in the 180 mill per hour Straight TCRC (8 minutes each) with 31 mill each site gives u 232 mill liquid isk + 52 mill worth LP (1 LP=1k Isk)=254 mill / hour
Thats why i put 180 mill as average...taking into consideraion the TPPH and NRFs
As for the guy who said that he has limited playing time and nerfing highsec won't do it... I say, thats the penalty of living in a secure space.. u want to have the same income as before .. go to null/low and keep farming |

It's the high enders. We have guys making about 5 billion a run over an evening. It's split as it is a group effort, but with the kind of pull in a single night? Quite frankly there's no point in making isk any other way (save maybe trading). It's in the order of a billion a site.

He also ignored the warp time between sites, the fact that even most TCRC's aren't that fast, the influence grind at the start of any Incursion, and all the zero income hours when there are no incursions up at all because someone killed them for the latest reason in the community. 100/Hour is a very high end figure once you actually include all the factors unless you are a community FC, in which case you don't have the same wait list issues. I'd say I was turning a mere 50/hour once I took several hours on wait lists per day into account as well as the time to move the concord LP.
Still a good income of course, but not the crazyness people like to pretend it is. |

please try to focus on the main goal of this thread.. which is balancing the income based on calculated risk vs reward.. which is displayed in the following:
High sec incursion: 1*3*4=12 High sec lvl 4: 1*1*2=2 Mining in high sec: 1*1*1=1 Faction war far: 2*1*4=8 (unfortunately, ccp decided that a bomber is enough for fw missions!!) lvl 5 low sec missions: 2*2*4=16 Null Ratting Anoms (up to forsaken): 3*1*4= 12 Null Ratting Anoms (Forlorn): 3*2*4=24 Null Ratting Anoms (Sanctums/Havens): 3 * 3 * 4=36 Tough DED plexes: 3*2*4= 24 Medium DED Plexes: 3*1*3= 6
this means that level of risk (and proposed isk per hour value taking into consideration that havens / Sanctums can be done only by a sieged Marauder or by a carrier, and Forlorn hubs can be done by faction/pirate BS)) should be:
================Proposed result======================= Sanctums/Havens (180 mill per hour) (more tough sites than the current, needs carrier/sieged marauder tank) Forlorn hubs (150 Mill per hour) (Can be done by a well tanked faction/pirate BS or tech3) lvl 5 missions (low sec) & Tough DED plexes (null) (120 mill per hour) High sec incursion (HQ) and Forsaken hubs (null) (100 mill per hour) FW missions: (80 mill per hour) High sec incursion (VGs/Assualts) & Medium DED Plexes (null) (70 mill per hour) High sec missions (50 mill per hour) mining in high sec (20 mill per hour) =================================================== |

null sec people are turning into sleeping accounts where their PVP chars are only activated in null when there is scheduled op or when a ping buzz in their jabber account.

EVE Online true safety and security status combined table for the new or ignorant players:
1. Safest- sovereign null security space (0.0 and below)
Local chat, early warning via intel network, AFK-level PVE difficulty, botting promoted and sanctioned by alliances, empty space
2. Relatively safe- high security space (0.5 and above)
Local chat cluttered, suicide ganking, PVE requires constant docking but is easy and blitzable
3. Unsafe- low security space (0.1-0.4)

4. Unsafest - wormhole space (-1.0)

On the flip side maybe this is how CCP wants things.
After all nothing generates more money for them then creating an environment that promotes having multiple accounts.
CCP have had years to change things in null that would mean the majority of null sec residents would not require to have an alt 's elsewhere earn isk yet then have done very little to remedy this.
I can not see this changing any time soon as if they did they run the real risk of people unsubbing some of their accounts as they would no longer be needed.
For a game which is heavily reliant on people having multiple accounts it would be suicidal introducing a mechanics that actually significantly the need for having multiple accounts.
If anything if you look at the changes they have proposed this again introduces another reason to have multiple accounts.
Maybe CCP has realised that they face a losing battle in getting new players to stay so they are just trying to come up with ways getting more money out of their dwindling existing player base.
Yeah there is a bit of tinfoil but it does seem to fit (in my head anyway) and everything CCP has done in the last 18 months or so has only reinforced my view. |

I don't see how anyone could possibly believe this. How is it possible that the space with the MAGICAL SPACE POLICE is somehow safer than the space where there are no magical space police? In high sec, you only have to be able to tank something long enough for CONCORD to spawn, in null you have to run, hide or fight.\
The part about (non-FW) low sec in particular is a lie. Low sec income activities except belt ratting are done in deadspace. People NEEd probes to bring unwanted pvp on you everywhere except belt/gates/stations and if they do it on a gate or station, you get NPC gunfire support. Hell, a MWD + cloak vastly limits your danger on gates even in a ship the size of a machariel (my low sec lvl 4 mission ship of choice). lvl 5s are super safe with fighters having been buffed, you can blitz those missions will aligned to station, a station that can't have a catch bubble deployed to stop you because it's low sec.
Here is a video of a player making 300 mil per hour worth of LP while watching Asian chicks shake it on stage. 300 mil AN HOUR with an Attack Battlecrusier while watching music videos....
I tried this myself, planting a naga and a stabber fleet issue in a low sec system and doing Sisters of EVE lvl 4 missions. It was astounding and all it takes is proper standings management.
Yea, that's totally balanced, but only if you are completely unable to tell the difference between reality and fantasy. The inability of some posters to tell the truth about a video game is completely insane.

The bulk of income via missions comes in LP. Anoms inject a lot more isk per ratter than missions do, CCPs own number show as such which is why they nerfed anom income the other year. Join Bat Country today and defend the Glorious Socialist Dictatorship |

I'm confused about this statement.. "They would inject far less isk than anoms"
With anon's there is limit on how much isk they can generate where as with missions it is technically infinite.
CCP can far more easily control anons by there re-spawn rate and only so many people can run them where as with mission you can technically have a 500 guys running them 24/7.

Also the numbers are questionable, billions on a maruader in high sec is common, as well as bling incursion ships, hich woudl get hunted in null. Ask frog freight guys about their isk per h, and why they still do it, same goed for alot of occupations and choices.
I am a bit puzzled as what u want to achieve, whats the underlying reason behind u pushing for a rebalance of isk versus risk in noc driven isk adventures. Do u want to push people into null bu nerfing their income? Do u feel null seccers are poor and cant make a living? , if the latter, then ask yourself why they all life there, why a sytem can be rented out for 5 billion per motnth easy, and why nullsec counts their srp in trillions.
People s choices are determined by more factors then the mentioned onces, and people are driven by other factors. Esle eveyone woudl do the same thing. Other park alts to make isk oer hour and so on.
That SRP is made from the passive income of big alliances that hold towers permanently and just throw gobs of isk into the corp/alliance wallets. Also from skimming 10% of what their hundreds of members do. Completely different than what 1 person can go out and do on their own. |

Ignoring once again your biased start point, such a good thing that the reality is the AVERAGE income of the high sec activities you listed is actually lower normally than you posted. Since we are talking en mass results anomalous outliers are not what dictate the activities general income, otherwise we can say someone running anoms in Null that the loot fairy likes makes 500 mil/hr currently so obviously anoms need a nerf (Since people have posted longer running stats showing that they personally made that much thanks to the loot fairy) So.... High sec needs no nerf even given the fact you deliberately biased the results towards Null, if anything the AVERAGE needs a buff.
And before Null gets the buff, first buff the number of people that can use a null system. Taking the figure of 10 people using a system per day as legit (Which I do believe given my own experience) Null can support 35,000 players per day total. If we assume that most people only play 3-4 days a week, that means null supports 70,000 players a week. Obviously a vastly too low number supportable. Then work out how to increase income in a nice lore friendly way that doesn't destroy the isk faucet/sink balance. Since even just increasing the number of players null can support with no income buff per site/player will decrease the value of loot.
P.S. Miners should make more than peanuts. What is this constant hate on industrialist characters as compared to combat characters. It's not like Exhumers are cheap and they are vulnerable. |
