Now that Mega containing npc items has risen in price (eg Giant tainers more than double) will we see futher increases in the price of Megacyte? -----------------------------------------------

We already have; and no doubt it will keep going up until 0.0 mining becomes more profitable than 1.0 mining. So far, I don't think it has.

Megacyte price has rissen to 18k and higher. deepspace mining becomes more profitable by the day. and we love it.
this is a good development there are corps/players out there with billions of isk while the most expensive item ingame is around 120 million isk. and the most expensive weapon/mod around 15 mil.
When megacyte prices rise so will the modual prices and there will actually be some money made.
A very good development for all mining corps.

Even with current market prices I can make double the isk mining Bistot 25 jumps from station than i could chewing scord in empire space. The biggest problem is haulers. This has got to be one of the most boring occupations in EVE second only to agent missions.
A 50 jump round trip might sound alot, but if you take the time to bookmark the route (took me around 3 hours for this particual route), you can easily do 1 jump per minute. Now from a hauling point of view, if you have a decent cargo hold (say 13k) thats over 13mil of bistot hauled per hour.
People claiming you can make more strip mining in empire space really do not know what they are talking about. As long as this myth is around, then those people who are willing do to that little bit extra will continue to make very good isk.
In a typical 90mins (solo mining) i can mine and haul 14mil isk worth of bistot, gain around 1mil in bounties from the small 50k chain i like to run while mining and also pick up a few mil's worth of decent loot. It only takes one decent mod and im making around 10mil per hour. I think the most important thing to make this kind of opperation profitable is decent bookmarks. If you are dropping out of warp 35km from every stargate forget it |

Yes, bookmarks make it much easier. If i've got a set of systems where bist seems to be in a nice amount, and I know i'll be hauling, i usually make a route to it.
Course when all of the folders disapeared, I had about 200 bookmarks unsorted I had to xfer
I guess it's how much people want to risk. Empire strip mining is relatively safe compared to bist, needs less guarders and haulers. Get a decent op going and bist is the way to go. Otherwise stick to stripping. ------------------- Basic truths? Idiots make us rich. - Some people are only alive because it is illegal to kill them. |
