Mining in low sec falls far below a reasonable risk to reward line to make it completely redundent. I've spent pretty much most of my Eve life in lowsec with High sec mining alts. I've looked into low sec mining before, even Null sec and for a small group of people it simply just isn't worth while. Factor in the sheer cost of moving your products, setting up pos's to build cause you're unlikely to have station building. Not to mention, it would take mere days for some local to find out theirs a mining corp around, and you'd one day get black ops dropped and killed.
Lowsec mining just isn't worth the time, effort or the increased rate in which your hulks blow up. If you're after extra isk income, then your only real option is joining a Worm Hole group. Worm holes are basically they only truly great place to mine, but come with their very own issuse. The main one being getting your damn ore out. An already set up corp would be your best better because of this factor, having more than likely put into place their transport links.
Null sec I guess could work, but it would mean finding someone with sov in a system that has a refining station. Close to a building station, and not so far away they can protect you from those small scale roaming groups. Entry Level Null systems I've been too seem to only have the same ores as High Sec, so for Truly great profits you're going too want a system thats below -0.5. Then again, Team BFF have already said they are going to change Null Sec to make building, mining and the like easier in Null. So maybe wait until the winter patch and see just what that brings. If theres a really improvement in Null for mining and so one, then becoming a pet to someones on the grounds that you sell your ships at JITA PRICES, wouldn't be the worse thing in the world. Even your mission runners would like being pets. Null is very carebear friendly. The easy in which you find sites in null is shocking. Though it does help a fella get his sec status back real fast.
If Null or Worm Holes aren't for you, then stay in High Sec. Low sec simply just isn't even close to being worth the risk. Unless ccp wanna give the Hulk 300 more PG, 2 more mids and Three more low slots? I somehow doubt that. ... I fly carelessly, without focus and semi afk all the time. ... |
