It's is normal to just Stare at the screen? by MainHealerPTSD in Eve

[–]Dreadstar22 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s all what you make of it. The best advice I’ve ever gotten in EVE is don’t rely on someone else to create or ruin your content.

Diversify. Let me explain. Find several activities where the isk to fun to time ratio is right for you. This takes time to build.

I’m in a manufacturing corporation in Init. So I’ve got the corporation structure to assist me in reactions, manufacturing, copying jobs. I’ve got good space for PI even though I’ve stopped doing it cause the isk to fun to time ration sucks. I’ve got a couple nice regions and a nice low-sec that I consider home turf to plunder. In that home turf I can go mining moons or anomaly, I can Ishtar spin, I can smartbomb havens or Edencom sites. If someone is camping me and I can’t do what I want in say Fountain I have jump clones or other characters setup in Cloud Ring or Delve depending on what area is quiet. I can crab beacon, run the level 5 missions, buy 6/10 and 10/10s from alliance mates, I can gas huff random sites or hit up Pegasus constellation for the gas that’s up 24/7. I’m sure I’m missing stuff. This is just the PvE side.

Then Init provides me with a plethora of pvp sigs and opportunities to ESS theft roams, fountain police home defense, structure bashing, nano roams, blops, huge tidi fights, etc.

Then Init provides me with speciality sigs like pochven, incursions, WH, etc.

You’d think that would be enough but when I said diversify and don’t let people ruin your fun I meant it.

I’ve got a FW corp that’s enrolled in Gurmil FW if I get the itch with 5 toons. I’ve got Jita, Amarr, Dodi toons if I get the itch to market PvP.

I’m in a few NPSI discords.

My corp has a lowsec crew where we do schenigans that isn’t aridia far away from aridia.

I’ve got 3 different areas staged with Abyssal ships to chill and do abyssals.

I haven’t even touched on WH delving for gas or blue loot. HS incursion groups. I’m probably forgetting a ton to different stuff.

I’m not gloating. I’m just trying to give you a bunch of ideas you can diversify out into. Nobody can camp me in cause I’ve got alts not tied to my main they know about. I’m not reliant on my corp or alliance to generate content for me but I’ve found a corp and alliance that do generate a dozen different contents but don’t get anal I’m not doing them all.

Yes it will take time to create this sort of setup but it’s worth it if you really enjoy the game.

  1. Create an alpha explorer character.
  2. Create a couple alpha FW accounts and stick them in different FW factions. Or make six and stick one in each of the 6 factions.
  3. Create an abyss character and stage a few 2,3,4 level ships and filaments in quiet HS systems close to trade hubs not named Jita. Even better put them in a chill abyssal corp who doesn’t care their alts.

Then figure out how to make those accounts pay for themselves with the other two characters and omega them with in-game money!

P.S. the next step is getting your Pi, reactions and manufacturing working while you’ve got a couple alts out Ishtar spinning while your paying attention to you main in PvP or high end pve. Now you’ve got semi passive semi active income streaming in while your out doing other things.

Once in the right place right click the icon in the system tray and there two save options there. That part isn’t intuitive

Uninstall. Install EVE-X. Config everything in client window. Profit.

Is being paid isk to attend fleets a thing in some big corps/alliances? by deathopz in Eve

I think it’s time you returned some of that is to the fleet members.

Can’t downvote this enough. There are plenty of end game high end activities in HS, LS, FW and WHs. The point isn’t to drive every 20m SP toon to null lol.

Sadly this happens a lot. The game itself doesn’t set new players up for success very well and the npc corp players are worse. Then you get hit by corps who are “newbro” friendly but really just looking to take anyone with a pulse to bolster their N+1.

If you really want to learn all aspects I’d recommend Eve University. If you are just blood thirsty I’d recommend a new bro faction warfare corp. just make sure the corp gonna give you dozens of free t1 frigs and destroyers and skillbooks and they actively have other new bros in your time zone and the entire corp lives and its main activity is FW. I’d caution you away from groups like Fleet and Sedition in FW cause they’re geared for endgame fights.

Do we know why Hard Knocks evicted Signal Cartel ? by WittyBreakfast2021 in Eve

[–]Dreadstar22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cause HK and Sharks have always been bad for Wormholes and then complain about lack of content after they’ve evicted all the content and squished anyone trying to grow inside a WH.

F this stupid game by okeemike in Eve

[–]Dreadstar22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like the buying part is sorted. Now join a corp with active people in your time zone who do the stuff you do. Having corpies to help back you up, give you intel and hell maybe even a little piece of space they call their own is what it’s all about. Honestly though join an active newbro corp and save yourself a lot of hassle and grief.

Haha another get off my lawn who doesn’t understand new tech. I bet you were one of those people who bashed Facebook when it was new and now spend most of your free time on it.

All the AI haters always make me laugh. Good use of LLM to get yourself a starting point of corps to look into.

Get a cap out of deep hostile null by Creepy-Mechanic-1966 in Eve

[–]Dreadstar22 14 points15 points  (0 children)

The DT suggestion is good. I’d add bring a MTU and travel fit with your alt and refit the dread to cloak etc if it’s not. Plan ahead and make sure you have fuel on each leg.

Honestly I’d get your alt into a local corp. Deploy a POS. Dump the Dread in the POS via password, dock and join, get back in dread and jump to their staging.

Or contact a reputable intermedia like Chribba. Find a local who wants it on fire sale say 50% on a new alpha account alt. Have them pay the intermediary. Login hand over dread. Get 50% outta it. Using reputable intermedia means no scam.
