This is not really true. Lots of low sec is empty and depending on the time of day/night you can pve pretty much unmolested. I've done so many a night.

And given that the vast majority of low sec pve is done in deadspace (ie you have to scan down the person doing the pve, unlike in incursions and faction warfare pve which has bright whiny beacons to tell you were people are, and null sec anoms which don't have beacons but are otherwise totally open/warpable), low sec pve is demonstrably safer than most other places.

With a carrier and the skills to use fighters (and an insta undock bookmark for each station you use), a cyno alt and faction standings above 7 for whatever faction you run for, you can blitz lvl 5 missions in near perfect safety, not being in any one mission more than 1.5 minutes, not even having to wait to recall drones (because fighters can warp also). Someone HAS to use probes to find you, and all you have to do is watch d-scan for those. You can make people give up trying it you do it right lol.

And you don't even have to do lvl 5s or spend a lot of isk or have a lot of skill points to do low sec. You don't need a corp backing you. You can get away without even needing a scout if you plan right. if you watch videos like that Russian youtube guys does you might need a supply of kleenex and lotion, but that's optional (lol).

Telling people to not even try is exactly what's wrong with high sec players. not gankers, not scammers, not "CONCORDin high sec/low sec gate guns not strong enough!". Actual players telling people it can't be done is the problem.

This is a lie. https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=postmessage&t=384372&f=258&q=5202697 Notice the systems lela and keri.

Their are plenty of low sec systems with fewer than 20 jump in per 24 hours, tha'ts pretty empty.

And even if it's not empty, again, low sec pve is done in deadspace, it's easy to evade people trying to kill you. High Sec income can't compete with the 500 mil per hour a guy who can fly a carrier can make.

I lived my 1st year in high sec listening to people like you lie to me about EVE. After faction warfare came out i joined, learned the ropes, and learned that low sec only requires an ounce more effort to be pretty safe to live in. I don't really care if high sec people learn this or not, I'm just correcting an untruth that I suffered from, that made me miss a whole YEAR of fun and loot because dumb but well meaning people were risk averse.

This is why now i take new players with my to low to show them how not scary it is.



Low sec is better for solo individual isk making that high sec or null sec or wormhole space (you need an organization in wormhole space to pull out better isk per hour than you can solo in low sec).

As i told another guy in this thread, I'm not making this stuff up.

Or this.

Or this either.

I don't know of a solo pve activity in high sec or null or wormhole space (with the exception of solo Dreads in c5 wormholes, which I have never done) that pays better than 200 mil per hour sustainably purely solo. ALL of the pve activities I listed above do that (because I do them depending on my mood, I have 3 carriers in adjacent systems for lvl 5s, 2 toons in 2 different militias and a naga + stabber fleet issue in a low sec sisters of EVE station). And with the exception of lvl 5s, the things i do to make isk in low require CHEAP low sp ships.

I'll bet you any amount you want Ocih that you've never even tried some of the things I've linked, yet here you are telling people "don't even try". Perhaps the underling motivation is the same as the old saying of "misery loves company", but other than that, i can't figure out why folks like you believe what you do.

I'm serious, try it if you don't believe me. find the right area of low sec, get you a naga and see what you can do.
