Sibyyl 369	Posted - 2014.04.13 02:18:00 - [61] - Quote Hasikan Miallok wrote: You could probably get into an incursion fleet with a 6 month skilled logi toon I suspect. It does need a good ship though, but selling a PLEX or two can achieve that. Well, as a 3 month character that seems like a high SP barrier to entry for me (compared to other things you can do in game). I think it's bad that the activity isn't particularly accessible to gankers, doesn't require a lot of user keyboard interaction, and that the income stream is so high. It's risk-free ISK injected into the system (on top of being ISK from PVE and not from another player) and I can't imagine it helps the price for PLEX or runaway ISK inflation in any way. /Fÿ¡ Now that you are campers you will have more parties and no more sad lonely bubbles.

I am fairly casual, and have several accounts myself. The skill system design requires alts of one sort or another. I disagree. Never had the desire to pay for more than one account. Same. Little over four years, and the only time I had another account going (on plex) was a couple years back I wanted a link alt, but ended up never using the only character on that account and let it laps last year. Never paid for more than one.

Plex are $19.95 each no matter what. Explain to me how they make more money this way? that's not to say I don't believe it is happening but they dress it up as a way of degrading the power of botters and rmt. True or not who knows. I don't have alts so for me all I see is a potential to make a quick couple of billion off an hours wages. LP store weapon cost rebalance
