>>858911
Stealing ore from nullsec refineries to build T2 stuff. I travel throughout a different region every day checking which refineries are pulling in moon ore, which have their asteroid belts up, etc then document them in a spreadsheet and pass it along to my corp.

There's not always a lot of asteroid fields up since corps tend to mine them as soon as they pop, but some get lazy after a while and let them stay in space. I got a fleet together and ran off with 180k m3 of Ytterbite from Fraternity space using Ventures before someone reported us on intel and we had to filament out. It refined into enough Thullium to make about 18k Photonic Metamaterials, which turned in to about 9000 Photonic Microprocessors, which was enough to make 50 or so Prospects. It only took our fleet of 13 around 20 minutes to mine all of that and we didn't lose anyone, not even the hauling Miasmos.

What's the fastest ship in EVE? I'm using a 50mn Punisher right now to make tactical bookmarks, but is there something better?

To improve my piloting skills. A pretty boring answer but I've ended up in a group that's probably above my skill level and I find myself dying to stupid mistakes more often than I'd like.

Two most fundamental things that improve your piloting:
- only use shortcuts to cycle and overheat modules, that way you can rotate camera and double click in space to your heart's content;
- configure your overview and the overall UI layout to make it comfortable. The most important part of it is brackets.
Do that first, the rest comes naturally with experience. Shortcuts alone automatically put you in top 3% of pilots, I swear.
Also record your battles. I use OBS and start recording right after undocking because I keep forgetting about it in the heat of battle.
>>
>>858978
Rebinding keys is also insanely useful, F keys are okay, but shift-f keys is a bit much and there really isn't anything using the QWERASDFZXCV keys that couldn't be rebound

I pretty much have it set up so QWER are offensive modules, guns, point, web, ect, ASDF are defensive modules like booster and cloak, and ZXCV is other modules like hardeners and tracking computers or probe launchers, ect.

Once you get a general idea of where you want major module types to go it becomes second nature and much easier then shift and ctrl or going down to F8

Yeah, a basic grid layout and alt+key shortcuts to toggle overheat. It makes even ships with like 12 active overheatable modules a breeze to fly. The F keys can be used for things like switching modes on tactical destroyers, overheating racks (useful for logi reps), drone control, etc.
>>
>>858978
>>858981
Thanks for the advice. I'm good at using the F keys but I still click for overheating, which is quite cumbersome, and I really should look to rebind some other buttons. Will have to figure out my own keybinds though as I've become accustomed to V for D-scan and F to assign my drones.
I've been lazy about setting up OBS too, I know it's useful and I used to dream of making videos. Maybe that Bringing Solo Back video competition will motivate me to try harder.
>>
here's some elite pvp advice. everyone who says to never use the orbit or keep at range commands is a retard. they have a use
>>
>>858994
Yeah but its also bad practice in PVP

A close orbit is good to counter slower guns, keep at range is useful for kiting and range control, but just pushing either of those in a general sense is liable to get you oneshot by sniper nerds
>>
it's not bad practice, it's fine a lot of the time. bad practice would be manually piloting all the time when there's no benefit
>>
>>859007
Moderation is key, I suppose. I'm the guy who wants to improve and I've died a few times because I failed at manually piloting when I should've just orbited, but if I only use orbit/keep at range I'll get fucked when I'm in a situation where I really need to manually pilot.
>>
being good is knowing when to do which, that's all I'm saying. so many shitters say manual pilot all the time

how did your fleet deal with null belt rats in ventures?
>>
>>859161
We had a Ferox to clear them with which also had a mining boost on it. It was a Ferox, a Buzzard, a Miasmos, and 11 (10 because one guy couldn't stay connected) Ventures. Buzzard scouted a route through a wormhole chain, fleet traveled to the system through it, Miasmos hauled ore back and forth a couple of times through it. We had a HS-C2-C1-NS route, so it was really quick. Took a Pochven filament for a quick exit upon seeing the first player on local.

We only had one rat wave spawn, and as far as I can tell, belt rats target combat ships first over miners but will target switch occasionally. As long as the non-battleships die quickly and the Ventures are orbiting, everything should be ok.

When mining in a big group like this, you don't have long before someone checks things out. There's no way to hide there's 15 players in space on the map, doesn't matter if it's a local checking the system to defend it or another fleet roaming to get easy kills, you're going to attract attention and have to leave. There's no moon ore in the game that's valuable enough to justify constantly relocating, but it's the only way to get it so if you want to build things that use it, you don't have a choice.

>>
>>859509
Yeah, but it's not all that profitable when you consider the time it takes to scout a place. It was one of my goals in EVE to find a way to reliably get T2 materials without having to deploy a structure of my own though, so I can say it works.

Eventually I'd like to try and do this with barges, but we still have the problem that there's no way to compress moon ore without an Orca or Rorqual and an Orca can't jump on its own. If I had money to blow, I'd say trying to bridge a Hulk fleet in with a Rorqual, mining for 30 minutes, and then bridging the fleet back out could be a way to efficiently mine the ore where it's actually profitable, but that assumes the Rorqual actually makes it out with the ore. Each Hulk mining Loperite pulls 560m ISK/hour and it would take between 5.5 to 56 Hulk-hours to mine out a field.

Prospects would be far more reliable, but you'd have to manually haul things in and out with a Miasmos constantly and it only takes 35 minutes for a single Prospect to fill a Miasmos's cargohold.

Gila is a noob trap.
do them in a 1300dps Typhoon or something instead, Typhoon goes fast enough that it doesnt need much tank. Praxis would work well too, but Praxis has the CPU of a 90s Thinkpad.
Eventually upgrade to an Armageddon Navy or a Rattlesnake or something.
make sure you're dropping MTUs and bookmarking them, Forsaken Hubs in even an Ishtar makes 100mil/hr if you're looting & salvaging everything as well.
bookmark like 90min worth of sites at once then go back with a Noctis to clean up all the wrecks.
doing this 1/3rd of your ratting income alone will be minerals (gotten from melting down random shit loot) and salvage, which you can use to manufacture stuff or to sell to thirsty industryfags that live down there with you.

get PI planets going on all 3 character slots on your account for passive income. assuming you're in null, 3 char slots doing PI there would be making you at least 1bil a month passively for ~2min of clicking buttons a day and 15min of hauling every 2 weeks.

later on, do some market trading by watching updates and market trends in some things, investing 500mil or 1bil into an item/mineral/ship and cashing out a few months later when its gone up in price.
there's a big nullsec war happening right now so already a lot of tech2 ships have doubled in price since last week.
making money in Eve without burning out involves diversifying your income.
if you just grind one thing all the time and nothing but you'll burn out and hate the game.
>>
>>860143
oh also, belt ratting can be a nice change of pace, as well as data/relic sites or wormhole day tripping.
killing rats in belts gives you a chance to get a faction spawn every 30min-1h or so, or hauler spawns (npc hauler with like 15mil units of minerals inside) or officer spawns if you're really really really lucky.
faction spawns can sometimes drop some nice shit, like rare implants or faction modules worth 100s of mil.

Thanks for the ideas. I've fucked around with a Praxis but it seems way slower than the Gila, although I probably have a shit fit. I am part of the war so it's a little dangerous to be flying around anything too expensive right now. Do you know of a good guide for PI? I have never touched it. Or if you have a Typhoon fit.
>>
>>860257
Not him, but you could try Rapid Heavy Missile launchers. Even with alpha skills, Praxis can break over 1000dps with Rapid Heavy Missiles.
>>
>>860106
Unless you're going to be using mainly battleships for pvp, just head into abyssals and finish training missiles/drones/caldari+gallente cruiser.
>>
>>860106
Invest your money into market trading and learn how that shit works

Buy low, sell high, it takes fucking forever to see real profits but its better than your liquid isk sitting in your wallet doing nothing

As for active gameplay you're pretty much doing the best ISK per hour in the game already solo, the only thing else is pretty much multiboxing and botting, and thats just gay
>>
>>860338
Oh and if you don't know where to start, flipping PI is usually a good go-to since most people just AFK that shit and dump it on the market in bulk, usually the assholes who own perimeter will buy shit to flip P2 and P3s into P4s, just don't try to do it yourself because the perimeter PI taxes are absurd if you're not the owner

It is funny to me that so many people admit to this without understanding that they are admitting to cheating.
>>
>>861947
Let's be honest with ourselves, would me not doing it prevent others from doing it as well? It's EVE, multiboxing, automation, and botting ruin the game, you have to accept if you want to play it you need to use every tool at your disposal.

Previously before writing one, I had simply played back the video and manually updated the database by hand, afterwards it did it for me in real time. Imagine knowing exactly who came in a wormhole, when they did it, and what they're flying, it's a service any wormhole group would pay a ludicrous amount of ISK for.

Personally, I was really hoping CCP would just cut down on the multiboxing by letting players see what's on the other side of gates and wormholes, but it looks like that's never going to happen. If it makes you feel better, I now do the same thing on a smaller scale in Thera, tracking who's active and what's being camped.
>>
>>861948
I still don't understand how they hate the game

>>861965
Except it's not, or at least impossible to ban. Streaming EVE is perfectly legal, otherwise Uedama Scout would've had his channel closed long ago. If I recorded in real time his local chat window and had a program parse it, should he get banned? I couldn't be banned because I might not even play EVE, I just made use of a public resource and logged the results to a third party website.

And that's just the thing. It's fine to have a cloaked scout sitting on a gate or wormhole. It's fine to stream EVE. It might not be fine to have a program parse the video you're streaming and log it, but if you don't even play the game and the person streaming doesn't know you're doing it, then how is CCP going to take action? Go after the guy who's not doing anything wrong? Ban someone who doesn't even play the game?

ah so it's okay to cheat and ruin the game because you won't get caught?
> If I recorded in real time his local chat window and had a program parse it, should he get banned?
You should for using automation, CCP should also have a streaming rule that local and other system info should be hidden.

Again, cheating because they cannot catch you is a shitty argument. You are ruining the game.

So your solution is to automate and bot intel collection?

Yes, cheating does grant you things that is more lucrative than regular gameplay.

>You are ruining the game, stop!!
For who? For you? For some player who looks for "content"? If anything, making travel and content safer for players doing it is a net benefit to the game. It sounds more like sour grapes that you aren't benefiting from it, or perhaps you're too lazy to set up your own alt farm for it.

>>861976
Please do, it's already been reported several times by people who've caught wind of it. CCP doesn't give a fuck. If they did, they would fix the root of the problem because a ban won't stop it.

If mass botting didn't make CCP sit up and make fundamental changes to the game, one guy running a dozen alts to log travel isn't going to get their attention either. It would be a benefit to the game if it did, but everyone knows it's not going to happen. Just go and benefit from it instead and stop seething over things you can't control.

how is it a benefit and how are your actions causing that? You are selling cheating intel to groups, you aren't some philanthropist.
>or perhaps you're too lazy to set up your own alt farm for it.
Perhaps it's that cheating ruins games and I refuse to ruin a game for fake money.

If I told you I was responsible for Uedama Scout in the first place, would you believe me? It would be nice to roll out a similar service for the entire galaxy, providing a free scout for every player in the game.

Shame he got greedy and looped his footage for ganks a few times. I really wanted him to take over Thera Scout and roll it out publicly, but it was too much work.

Omen will kill things faster but is more fragile, the Maller can be overtanked to the point it can survive in L4s but is fat and slow. They're pretty similar overall though.

Get the Omen if you want to snipe, get the Maller if you want to brawl.

There's a guy in my corp who does that, mines with an Orca and six hulks on HS moon ore 3 times a week for hours at a time. I don't mind HS mining on occasion because it's a leisure activity you can do while chatting with friends in voice, but he does it solo.

He does make like 25b ISK a month doing it though, and that's after PLEXing all of his characters. I don't think it's a good use of 100 hours per month, but I can't deny the results.

I have a lot of friends that play EVE off and on, I was debating using their accounts for multiboxing in this way. Tell them I'll PLEX their account if they dedicate a character slot to just sitting in a specific system and training mining skills for a couple of months.

Only thing is I burn out real fast so I know if I attempted it I'd barely do maybe three or four hours a week, which isn't enough to pay for anything.

Ended up doing NPC null with NPC Station. Almost as good as wh and I can walk away for months without issue.

Worth about 1 bil per char with 3 day cylces and you can just potch highway everything to jita or amarr.

how do you deal with the constant need to replace epithals?

>>863931
you can fit minerals and fits for 5 epithals in a badger and just manufacture in closest NPC station.

PI alts all set their home station to the PI hub before attempting to fly back, autopilot makes it to Outer Ring about 50/50

*Crane the t2 cloacky one.
total is about 3 bil per account per month

Have about two extraction alts per factory alts. Factory alts all stay in system. Some extractoin alts have planets a couple jumps out.

also, 3b a month? how are you doing those numbers? i pull 2.1b with 3 toons monthly

current prices are crazy. One planet makes 12 Wetware per day. 2 accounts feeding it more than it can process.

2.39m x 12 x 5 x 30 = 4.3 bil
less taxes and epithals.

you have 2 accounts / 6-8 toons with 36-48 planets feeding p4 into another toon

12 extraction planets + 5 factory planets generally balance.

Some of the lower processed things do make more isk I just cant stand the hauling.

Extraction planets in high sec are about half as productive as null and lower stuff is way faster to profit.

I've always wanted a WH setup but burned out on scanning for now.
>>
>>863752
>people joined his corp just to awox his orca.
What's awox? They blew it up? Why?
>>
>>864211
awox is slang for popping blues, basically.
Awox was a person who joined corps and killed his corpmates over and over again before they caught on and could kick him. He repeatedly did this and thus the term AWOX was defined.

originally it meant tackling a corpmate so you could kill him with an out-of-corp alt, but nowadays it basically means shooting at blues.

Awox still plays, someone saw him around the other day.
>>
>>864211
>Why?
because mining is cancer, especially highsec mining corps which are basically just a tax/discount mineral scam.
3bil a month for 30 hours a week of mining?
a group of 9 people could make that much running wormhole sites together for an hour or 2.
mining is so bad, that you literally make minerals faster just spinning an ishtar in null and melting down the loot.
>>
>>864211
awoxing is getting a character in a corp so they can tackle high value targets to destroy usually extremely expensive null ratter fits. Usually we got someone to betray their corp by telling them their corp was gay and that they could get a lot of isk by blowing up their corp mates and could join pizza. The way this worked is that in eve online if you are online and not in a station you can't be kicked out of a corp, by getting an alliance member to log in continously after downtime they could tackle high value ratting ships as long as they cared to beat a corp manager at logging in(this was easy to do as down time is at a very bad american and european hour)
>>
>>864236
>>864217
Literally why would anyone play the game where the point is to fuck people over by pretending you're their friend like a psycho retard?
>>
>>864221
It's only bad because it's done so commonly, which drives down the price of minerals to near worthlessness. Suicide ganks in high security space actually help more competent miners to some degree like this, it reduces the amount of minerals in the system and causes the prices to rise.

The problem is there's so many people mining in high sec and only the incompetent, AFK ones get caught. Suicide ganks will never effectively hit those massive 60 man operations that mine out a 56 day moon pull in under an hour twice a day because it's impossible to cause them enough economic damage to get them to stop. Instead, suicide ganks hit the bottom rung of players who can't afford to replace their barge when it goes boom, which is the exact wrong thing to do for a healthy playerbase in EVE, pushing everyone to join these massive alliances instead of actually doing shit on their own.

Mining in general needs to have similar difficulty to doing it in lowsec on a large scale, if minerals were all priced relative to how Isogen is mining would be worth doing. Sure, it might make a T1 frigate cost 2m ISK, but that's the tradeoff to making the profession worthwhile.
>>
>>864221
Oh, and I agree, unless you're in a massive HS or sov null Hulk fleet with support, it's far more efficient to just farm L4s for loot/bounties instead. I can literally pull around 120m an hour doing them in a T1 battleship via bounties and salvage and get about 40m ISK in minerals from melting down smart bombs and other junk. The worst part is that EVE will never improve on the industry side of the game because mining having value would mean people would have to get out there and do it in significant numbers and only about 20% of the playerbase has any interest in it whatsoever.

Ask your corpmates what they do and see if there are any group money making activities but your best options for solo are PI, C3/C5 sites, exploration or gas mining. Could also haul fit ships in and put them up on contract, doctrine ships and sabres should always be in demand.
>>

>but I don't know what to do to make ISK.
you're in a wormhole corp
they do group ratting sessions
join one of those, you'll make a bil or two for an hour's worth at least.

if there are no farming fleets up then do any combo of

>explo, 1mil~1bil/hr because RNG
>go back to highsec and run abyssals for 60mil~1.8bil/hr

Long term: get my lowsec group to actually drop a fortizar instead of these astras that get reffed by a single dread in AUTZ, even if it means putting up the ISK for it.
Short term I'm restocking my stash of doctrine ships on contract, and figuring out the right ship to be doing escalations with so that I don't feed another 1.5b Loki.
>>
>>864985
The new structures really don't take a whole lot of extra work to reinforce, unless you mean it'll defend itself better. You might be better off just shaking some hands and getting someone else to defend it instead of putting up the cash to upgrade something that may or may not pay off.
>>
>>864989
It's more that whoever decides to ref it will need to commit more resources to do so, which will attract locals/3rd parties to form & fight. The deterrent is there already but the response window for an astra is too small. Right now astras get reffed by a single Zirn or Nag in off-hours & only one defensive timer to make up for it. We won several fights but lost the last one.
This is also in FW, but I can't get into more details without revealing who/where/etc. It probably wouldn't be difficult to narrow it down from that description.
I don't necessarily think the investment itself is strictly worth it but the last astra was incredibly valuable to the FW grind, and 5 days of asset safety has tied up billions in ships that most people can't just go re-buy.
