On a very good day I can make about 50mil an hour ratting in the drone regions (alloys + salvage). That's after corp and alliance taxes. Normally I average about 20-25mil an hour since pruning belts to get a good 3x BS spawn takes time. This is using just 1 account... I've seen people use a carrier and alts to salvage/haul, and they can *****a whole system of belts at a time...

From the sounds of everythign said in this thread - there is no such thing as a true-pirate, or a true-pvp'er - or at least very few are.

Originally by: Haakelen a friend of mine makes freighters by logging in once a week and pulls 3-4 bil every few days.
how? does he mine truckloads of minerals, or does he buy the minerals/components to build them? and isn't the manufacturing time on a freighter like at least a week? but i suppose if he had multiple freighter BPO's he could build more than one at a time...
I don't know the details (he won't tell me all of it lol), but I know he has at least 4 freighter BPOs.
I've built Freighters
10 day to 12 days to build a Freighter (depending on how well the BPO is researched). At best, maybe 200mil profit per ship, probably more like 100mil.
so.....
Assuming 8 BPOs running 24/7, at 10 days per cycle and 200mil profit per ship...
160mil profit a day. 4.8 bil per month.
My hunch is that profit is a lot less.
Play nice while you butcher each other.

invention
for a few hours of doing some stuff semi afk... i get enough to not worry about any isk.
usually i just invest my proffits back into the invention / manufactoring as i just dont need the liquid isk.
i got about 30 pvp fitted ships ready for anything :P
hacs/recons/BS/command ships etc.
if you are smart whit your money... you can multiply it very fast :) ---------------------------------- Fighting for Minmatar o7 Yes... this is my main. Extreme Troll Slayer...

Originally by: zenia starwalker how the heck do they make all this isk to afford all these uber set ups? Running mish will not keep you in these uber setups ship after ship, and I cannot picture you in a hulk mining for days on end, and you certainly do not get that kind of isk salvaging wrecks, if you have time.
So how do you make isk?
Basically, we blow people's ships up and sell the loot/cargo and we are completely self sufficient in doing so. We never mine, run missions, etc.

It's really simple actually:
You make ISK by using any method in the game which has over 10m/h.
I can spend 20hrs or doing that then buy a 200m ship... THEN THE BEST PART COMES
You just DO NOT DIE in a nanoship.... if you know what you're doing that is...
The only time I've lost a nanoship was becouse my PC crapped out on me.

Edited by: Duraj on 23/06/2008 23:26:27 Go to amarr space, preferably the amarr system.
look up the buy orders for all weaponry for that region.
The buy orders go for something like 100-300 isk a unit.
Next, look at the SELL orders of these same guns. 50,000-300,000 isk a unit.
thats a 5000% profit.
thats how its done, and Im sure its not just isolated to any one region..
basically, the newbie mission runners always get screwed, to support the nanofleetards.

Lvl 4 missions, loot, salvage, sell modules, sell salvage, have several agents gimme datacores, produce things no NPC produces, sell those in a good market corner, make a few guesses at market, ferry tags to the area where they sell better.. etc. Nothing in itself is a huge profit, but overall the money flows to support my level of gameplay. Diversity, I think, is the game called.

It depends on where you mission run. In some places, the LP's are far more profitable than the loot/salvage. I run missions with two characters and my goal is to tear through the missions as fast as possible leaving the loot salvage behind.

Comrades!
Wake up to the facts! The Bourgoise Rulers of Eve make up LESS then one percent of Eve pilots. They run the major alliances of zero space and own and control the major moon mining operations and useful T2BPOs in Eve, which funds THEIR pvp and the fleets they use to defend their isk sources. The rest of you peasants are allowed to do only two other things in Eve. Either you continue to scratch out a peasants existance in empire, which serves the Bourgoise Elite's purposes as it provides them with cheap minerals from the loot you dump from missions... or you go to zero WITH THEIR PERMISSION to serve as cannon-fodder (often paid for by YOU thru ratting and rental payments you make to them for the privilege) to defend their assets in zero.
WHAT A JOKE HAS BEEN PLAYED UPON YOU! IT IS NO WONDER THEY ARE LAUGHING!

Ford Escort sounding like an idiot again, nice.
Seriously, never sold a GTC, though i buy alot.
Isk is pretty simple, once you find a nice niche where you can bank a good bit. Through freighters, multiple invention alts (though its shrunk alot, the t2 invention profits used to be pretty high). Mission running on an alt or main can generate large sums of cash (look at all the friggin faction fit CNR's).
Basically we've all found an easy way that were comfortable doing alot, and we do it.
Oh, and Ford is an asshat, 1% my left nut. Check a killboard sometime dbag.

Why do you say missiosn won 't do it? If you run level 4 missiosn in an efficient way whiel looting and salvaging you can EASILY make 30 mil per hour. A single saturday afternoon runnign missions can pay for a lot of stuff... ------------------------------------------------- If brute force doesn't solve your problem... you are not using enough

0.0 Ratting.
If I rat for 1 hour each day for a month, I can afford two losses that month and break even, maybe a little less.
Most nano pilots I know are perpetually broke. It doesnt take much loss-wise to hurt our pocket books, and breaking even in a battle where you lose even one ship can be difficult. - - - Originally by: CCP Garthagk While these forums may not give you everything that you want, they will usually let you post.

...yea maybe you should learn to fly ur onyx first emo..lol ur a gtc seller admit it. Their isn't one person in eve that can only profit from pvp and if you say you have ur lyin. The reason I don't believe you is blobs destroy everyone they come across, I don't care how good you think you are..ur gonna get blobbed once in a while.
If I didn't have to buy gtcs I could very well do this

Originally by: zenia starwalker So ive seen all these nano this anti nano that threads and I have come to one conclusion. Nano's are expensive, Ive seen nano setups upwards of a billion, and Ive seen anti nano set ups that are vary expensive as well.
This got me wondering, all these guys are great pvpers, which im not, how the heck do they make all this isk to afford all these uber set ups? Running mish will not keep you in these uber setups ship after ship, and I cannot picture you in a hulk mining for days on end, and you certainly do not get that kind of isk salvaging wrecks, if you have time.
So how do you make isk?
Far beyond normal players, in the rarified air of expert PVPers, there lies the overclass: Pirates. These are players that are so good, they actually make *all* of their ISK through killing other players. I know it's a crazy concept, but it's true.
I start to feel poor when I have less than a few bill in liquid ISK. IMO a true pirate never has to mission or mine or do any of the usual stuff to make ISK other than kill people and take their stuff. The sad thing is, it's becoming harder and harder to be a successful pirate, as ship module prices (T2) have dropped a great deal, plus the introduction of WTZ and numerous other changes that have made Eve a much easier place for the stupid and inept to survive.
Eve will continue down this path, with no new changes benefitting players like pirates. Every change from here on out will continue to water down the combat environment.
So yeah. How do I make my ISK? By killing people. Lots of them.
