I've been focusing on mining, but that is getting slightly dull, as I'm only making 300k every 7 minutes in my Retriever. Botting is a no go, as I prefer not to be banned. I was thinking of buying a PLEX, but I want that to be a last resort as I want to spend as little money on EVE as possible, other than the monthly sub. Right now I'm trying to train Mining Barge 5 to fly around a Covetor, but that is still 20 days away. What would you guys suggest I do in my position to make some ISK?
In the end isk comes to isk, but you gotta start from somewhere...
You clearly have archived one step by getting yourself into retriever. That will help you get your replacement ships in the start of your career. However hisec mining for iskies is rather narrow bread in long term...
For new pilot tutorial missions are good starting point. After those hop into a destroyer and head to complete the sisters of eve epic arc mission chain. When those have been done, you might want to check the cosmos missions. In this point you should have much cleared vision and fresh ideas how to continue the journey. You most likely have made some friends too.

Join a large, faceless 0.0 alliance and rat in belts, it can be done in any battlecruiser and should make you 30million/hour??? Someone correct me there as I haven't done it in so long, keep doing that to keep your money coming in until you find your true niche.

If you look at this as a shopping center with the only hold up being no credit card, like most of these scam scam scammers do, then you'll never have enough since enough will never be enough. You make a billion, and all you can see is that "1" and the itch hits you about turning it into a "2". Once that "2" is there...where's my "3"? On and on it goes till it rolls over to the next denominator.
Even if you had billions to buy a buncha crap, most of it you couldn't use anyway wivvout that training...training...training...which leads to the OTHER motivation - capability. Being able to do some things very well and just not bothering to do them because they're beneath you is far more rewarding than making endless ISK in a race to nowhere special.
You see, true freedom lies in your ability to just do NOTHING, and gloat about it. The catch is, if you can't do anything then doing nothing isn't very special. If you can do EVERYTHING, and do it well, then not doing anything becomes the quintessence of pleasure. That's when you're in the leisure class.
Don't be a squirrel and constantly rabbit for money (pardon the mixed metaphor). Be a lion and just hang out surveying your surroundings with untouchable arrogance. You'll be glad you did! Most genius reply I've read in ages.
It's a load of bull crap. If you are at the point where you can do everything, but can't be bothered to, you have lost the game. Or rather the game lost you, as you have burned out. The game won't be as exciting anymore, and you will need to find another game to play, but there are no other good sandbox MMOs out there that will give you the satisfaction EVE did. A totally depressing place to be in IMO. |

Vito Tattaglia wrote:Okay, well I think I will give up mining, as I've been ganked twice in the past two days. Unfortunately, I need some advice on how to get enough money to buy a Drake for level 3 and 4 missions. I have access to level 2 security missions with Minedrill, but the best ship I have is a Caracal and I only have 30 million left, when a good Drake fitting will cost about 50.
You got 30 million eh? I started station trading with around 80 million from grinding lvl 3 missions, but 30 million is still very doable. Do some research into station trading. Park an alt in one of the 4 big hubs. And start by focusing on a item with high trade volume and a 10% or so spread. And expand from there. If you play it smart and aggressively, you can double your money every few days until you reach somewhere over 500 million. Then things start to get more complicated as you have over 100 orders to manage and have to search harder and harder for new opportunities. |

Become a Televangelist in America. Trick and Deceive the desperate and stupid people with the promises of the miracles of God in poor and uneducated areas. You will get loads of money by having charisma and lying with a smile. Once you have gained the money you go and buy a load of GTC's then you redeem them for ISK.
Behold you are now RL and EVE rich, all by manipulating the illiterate masses. They can't do anything against you, since they gave money to you willingly and God's miracles has no illegal recourse.
For those who disagree with my methods, I am doing the world a favor by wiping out the weak and stupid people who are dumb enough to give me money and believe in a bullshit called religion. Religion is infact the GREATEST SCAM OF ALL HISTORY. |

For some one who professes to be unsure of "god's" existence, you make a number of assumptions:
1. God is singular - Why exclude the possibility of a pantheon?
2. God sends people to a lake of fire - Why limit the punishment issued by deities to that proposed under Christianity and popularised by modern denominations.
3. God is a he - Really you are not sure god exists but are sure of your potential god's gender?
4. Using God's name in vain is the ultimate sin - heh.
If you are not sure if god is real or not how come you have limited god to such a degree.
If god is real I hope they gather their skirts and smother you under their panties. |

I was referring to the Christian God since Ashera Yune was referring to that as God.
I am not making the assumption that if thereis a God, that it is the Christian God.
You lack reading comprehension. I believe that you are one of those ignorant fellows that are only good as tools. |

Equidistant? You should read the dictionary your lack of knowledge of the definition of the word, show that you are mentally inept.
Equidistant of course means equal of distance.
I believe the correct term is equal. But then you are wrong in that I am correct in my statement and it is a mere typo of a missing space. |

Secondly would be blitzing level 4 missions for loyalty points. (aka: skip as much of the mission as possible, grab objective, turn it in)
Third best is going to be running sanctums/havens in -.8 through -.9 nullsec.
This. The forlorn/forsaken hubs are also not bad for isk. Incursions are also probably the best PvE in high sec for making isk. |
