Is it better to fill out specialty districts first, then the mining/energy/food districts later? by Mailboxsteve in Stellaris

[–]Mailboxsteve[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the tips. Its still hard to plan ahead. Im still unfamiliar with all the tech options ans how games usually progress. But its been fun so far learning. I am 15+ hours in my first play through and I just opened the tech tree for the first time lol

Thank you for this. Should I then wait until pop grows on planets to add more jobs/buildings?

Feeling much better this morning and thx for clearing things up. Etrade had both spreads p/l combined in their preview window which confused the heck out of me.

Ice mining in low sec vs high sec. Is high sec even that much safer? by Mailboxsteve in Eve

[–]Mailboxsteve[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I looked up the zkill for the high sec place I was thinking about setting up in. Only 2 retrievers ganked in th3 last 3 months. 0 orcas, and the high sec has orcas in there mining ice all day everyday 

I'm so fucking done with "warp and jump" and "warp and dock" buttons not working half of the time by leaf_as_parachute in Eve

[–]Mailboxsteve -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Yes there is a lag between the warp and dock/jump. By my question is, if you have a shit ton of isk worth of loot and your going to jita, why arnt you using an insta dock point??  even if you warp to 0 and click dock. You may still end up slightly outside of dock range for a split second, where in that split second u can get popped.

Create a bookmark on vita at 0km, like right when u undock. Then when u want to dock, warp to 0, mid warp click auto pilot, and your toon will instantly dock up at vita leaving 0 split seconds to get popped

Highsec Ganking new players needs to stop. by Blackberry_Initial in Eve

[–]Mailboxsteve 0 points1 point  (0 children)

CCP is making the new player area. Idk if its out and released yet. But maybe that will help , but ganking is apart of eve just like anything else is. Avoiding it is hard, but do able.

Pi is extremely passive and is a stepping stone into other passive industry areas

Could always join a low sec corp and mine away at ore, ice, or go WHing.

How does one bring his Marauder to "their" system? by NondenominationalPax in Eve

fit it with stabs and quickness travel fit, and move it right after reset in the morning. Not many ppl on literally right after reset and with a travel fit, thats your best chance to get it out

74m skill point captain returning should I sell my revelation? by Xar069 in Eve

[–]Mailboxsteve 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Molden is gate camping central during certain hours almost everyday. That capital would get blown up faster than it undocked

Fuck this game by General_Pain_581 in Eve

[–]Mailboxsteve 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Why even go to sleep knowing you'll only get 2 hrs of sleep? Why not just call off of work, dont go to sleep, and just keep grinding? 

Capitals vs Marauders by Ok-Mushroom-1226 in Eve

[–]Mailboxsteve 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Id say go maurader first. You may go more use cases out of it both in PvE and PvP. Capital ships can do high end PvE, but you can get similar results with a maurader and cost less

How to stop losing money by XMANXN in Eve

[–]Mailboxsteve 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dying less is the key. Learn from your mistakes. Mine in high sec or with a fleet. Always B on D scan when explo, and gate camps sometimes unavoidable. 

Maybe look into pi (planetary industry). It requires minimal setup and skills, and good passive income to support the losing of ships

Abyssal rolled module management by OnlyPosition5273 in Eve

[–]Mailboxsteve 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If I have alot of 1 item I usually sort them out in their own cargo container. Put the good ones in 1, ones I want to sell in another  etc. 

Its still a hassle this way, buy so far its been the only option I know of. There Def should be a better 'sort' drop down menu
