Not Kwark,


Character trading is a bit messy now with skill extractors, since it creates a floor. Basically,

((Xp-5.5 million)/500,000)*(injector-extractor)=Floor that anyone not stupid would never sell under.

When you start to consider a salvage price for a 5.5m pilot to be in the 3-4b range it makes it hard to pick up characters on the cheap. (assuming you left something viable)

SP being cheaper than plexing doesn't help either. As long as I don't need a character with more sp than the starting point on injector diminishing returns I might as well just buy injectors. So now there's a ceiling on what people would pay for as well.

This creates a thin corridor for you to operate in buying and selling.

The corridor does get larger for trading characters with roles that go beyond the diminishing returns for injectors, but its a much less fluid and now limited market. I'm sure that there are still deals to be made in a traditional buy/sell way.

you could always just farm alphas but now you're towing a line to get banned. CCP only wants you to have 1 alpha and never to play it at the same time as an omega. Creating alpha farms akin to the ol 51 day farms its asking for trouble.

They also train at half speed now so if you're on good standing with CCP you could In theory make a few billion a couple times a year.

I don't see it as being as lucrative as kwark era trading

CCP only wants you to have 1 alpha

You can have more than one Alpha account as long as you do not try to log in on multiple Alpha accounts simultaneously, or an Alpha and one or more Omega accounts, at the same time. From the most recent EULA, section 2:

You may establish more than one Account for each copy of the Software licensed. You are however not allowed to play EVE by using more than one Account at the same time, unless you pay a subscription fee for each of the Accounts you intend to use for that purpose.

Yeah it'll crash the low end character market and create a floor for char traders to develop something out of it. Kwark back in the day talked a lot on TS about different characters and what he would train them up to. He once bought a char from me without knowing it was me at the start.

Baller sent the isk before I agreed to make the trade. If it was anyone else I would have scammed him straight up.
A wise man will say that he knows nothing. We're gona party like its 2752 Hail Dark Brandon

Character trade scams are forbidden and ccp would revert money in that case. It's one of those exceptions.

I dunno Warri, Kwark did annoy the mods in character trading to no end. There was at least a point when you had to post on the character that you were selling (may still be the case). At one point kwark was just offloading like 60-80 characters or something ridiculous and tried to do it in a single bulk sale. The mods threw a hissy fit saying he needed to make individual threads until he threatened to basically control 4 or 5 pages straight with his character post threads.


I think they gave in, but kwark rants made eve fun.

Now that's just sad, I always enjoyed the stories from the character trade forums.

Most of my fun eve memories (stuff like going second place in the rifter tournament aside) basically consist of people yelling or being angry and Kwark was always a top contender.

Then again there was also the time when he told me that the Liquid TS password was "sekrit" and because I was a complete idiot it took me half an hour to say it out loud and realize that he was fucking with me.

Before I stopped playing Rifters fell out of fashion, can Alphas play whatever new attackboat is useful in fleets nowadays?

The record for the most people in one system was broken yesterday when, at its peak, 5700 players gathered in the M-O system to battle over the Keepstar citadel owned by Circle-of-Two alliance.

Attackers consisted of Pandemic Legion, Northern Coalition dot and allies. Defenders consisted of Circle-of-Two, TEST alliance and allies.

Unfortunately due to the overwhelming numbers from the attackers the defenders were not able to take the field at the start of the siege. Thus TEST opted to kill PLNC allied fleets travelling to the warzone rather than take on the main fleet at the citadel leaving Circle-of-Two without support.

Time dilation was at max throughout the entire engagement.

After a few hours the Keepstar fell.

Apparently CCP made Rorquals sort of good at mining by adding capital mining drones

By themselves a set of ‘Excavator’ Superdrones make the Rorqual the most powerful mining ship in the game, and when boosted by an active Industrial Core module they each individually gain the yield of an Exhumer.

Soure

They also gained the ability to point ships while being basically invulnerable for 7 minutes but I'm too much of a pvp and cap noob to understand and explain how.

Now the mining is considered way to op and it will be nerfed by 32% per drone... maybe someone here will correct me on this but I don't see the problem with the mining at all. I thought it would be great if mining could stop being an alternative in hisec so that maybe players (especially new players) started to seek other, more engaging things to do in the game. Mining is already one of the most boring activities and I'm happy to leave it to null.

Meanwhile alpha clones can, after a week or two, make at least 50m/hour for minimal work and almost without any risk while doing fw plexes. And pilot skill is almost irrelevant for that isk/hour, as it's actually me doing that and I suck at this game. I just don't get it...

Anyway tldr; CCP hates null mining, mining still sucks and if you're bad like me and make less than 50m/h go do fw or something more profitable.

umm the invulnerable jump hictor is actually more op than the mining part. And the problem with the mining is that it was headed on the fast track to tank the entire economy by making minerals way cheaper. Its still 200 mil per hour or so, aka the best money in sov null (almost said null sec but pirate level 4s are still better if your good at blitzing).
