>Can I make enough ISK to PLEX during the trial?
If you have to ask, you can't do it.

>I just started, what should I do?
Do the Opportunities then find the Career Agents & run all of their missions; they give you ISK, ships, skillbooks and teach you basics. Talk to players and try to find a corp. The game is only as boring as you are.

>Is it too late to start playing EVE?
No.

So I'm trying to fit out a bestower in a way that'll make it less likely to get murdered. It's amarr, so the first assumption would be armor mods buuut those are all in low slots and I'd really love to use the low slots for expanded cargoholds. Is there something I'm not seeing, or do I just get to stick shield extenders on?
>>

>So I'm trying to fit out a bestower in a way that'll make it less likely to get murdered.

Don't autopilot, problem solved.
>>
>>121772337
That doesn't change the fact that an eighteen second align time isn't great, though.
>>
>>121772206
align quick, don't autopilot, try not to carry more than 80m in your cargo
>>
>>121772535
Then I guess you'll have to pick between expanded cargoholds or intertial stabilizers.
>>
>>121772206
If you want to not die fly a sigil instead

the high cargo t1 industrials are all maximum gankbait
>>
>>121772949
This, use the high tank variants like the Miasmos. Their tank far supersedes the Iteron Mark V with far less cargo capacity but you're so much less likely to get ganked carrying 200m worth of shit in a miasmos purely because the tank is so huge
>>
>>121772949
>>121773513
I hadn't actually thought about that, Sigil looks like a good option. Thoughts on what to look at for mid slots?
>>
>>121773667
>Thoughts on what to look at for mid slots?
the miasmos has more mids so if you use those mids to shield tank and the lows to use cargo extenders that could work really well

Newfag who was asking about bestower fits here, I've got an unoccupied impel bookmarked in a wormhole with an exit to highsec. Trial accounts can't drive impels, though, so I'd like to sell the location. Contact Kalnid i'Xiia if you're interested.

Whats the star type, number of sites, are there any other POSes in the hole? Is it a c1 or a c6 or what?

C2, three wormholes and a gas site. Were a couple of data/relic sites but I cleared them out. There's I think two or three other POSs in the hole, but no forcefields on dscan. Star's a red giant. Entry wormhole is at beginning to decay.

VNI ratting in catch is getting me a measly 17m per tick (12 with a ess up). That's really shit money compared to sansha relics which hit 100m/hr. If you could consistently get those kinds of high sec escalations you'd be better off than I am. At least you're not hawking local.
>>
>>121818343
Who said anything about VNI ratting, thats to afk.
You could easily do 10/10 escalations and pull 500mil per hour or C6 for 1,5bil per hour.
>>
>>121818514

>could

WH needs multiple people or toons, loots got to get out and be sold.
Escalations are still loot fairy RNG, but in general do have 50-100m of bounty.

The ratting is obviously leaving out the odd faction spawn. I guess it was my fault for comparing an active task of finding sites and escalations against afk ratting.

>>121830292
sov isn't about bashing structures any more, it's about king of the mountain for the first round and then capture the control points for the second.

um
jump range got hugely nerfed so null empires are more restricted on where they can escalate with their caps

relic and data sites have a minigame to hack now, the loot spew was removed. between this and mobile tractor units making salvage a lot easier to get, salvage prices have dropped.

there's a new universe map which is pretty ok and recently a new scanning map with keyboard shortcuts for probe manipulation and dscan, which really appeals to the explorer in me

the CFC rebranded to the Imperium to benefit mitten's irl RMT, downsized considerably, and restructured their rental system. Black Legion has disbanded. Hero disbanded (maybe?) and Brave crumbled, left sovnull and is now in calmil and rebuilding. C6 wormhole space is controlled by renting russians (their leader was recently banned for RMT though), NoHo is dead and all the wormhole pvp groups are now in C5s intead.

t3 destroyers with in-space mode-switching and no skill loss were created, proved to be incredibly versatile and everyone is flying them now. there are now less reasons to fly assault frigs than there were before.

sleepers are doing spooky things and have been seen outside wormholes. the amarr empress was assassinated by a faction that seems to be somehow associated with the sleepers and who are known for stealing bodies and repurposing them - possibly for reuploading the brains the sleepers are protecting.

there's been a couple of rendering improvements and ships look better. there's been UI updates in many areas - neocom icons are now monochrome and flat, ship/drone overview icons reworked to give more information, corp management interface improved (a little bit).

Debating wether or not to start playing. The game seems huge, and I'd like to be a part of it, but it'll probably be overwhelming and I've always sucked at vidya anyway.
Also not sure if I want to pay fifteen bucks for a game I'll be playing for, on average, maybe an hour a day.

Is the game less fun if you suck? Is it doable to not play for long periods of time at once? Do I need to be a Wolf of Jita Street to get rich?
>>
>>121843228
>Is the game less fun if you suck?

Short answer No
Long answer Yes

If you're just cool with having someone FC for you and being a retarded line member you will get fun from the game to a certain point.

If you actually go do shit in the game, undock every day, with or without your fleet and start doing random shit your eyes will open to what EVE really is.

When you change regions, you'll notice a few good luck hits like this, even in hisec. I got a LG halo omega in hisec and i've always noticed ratting gets a slight improvement from rngsus when you travel.

PvE:

Nullbear ratting just get a VNI drone boat.
Nullbear ded sites get a tengu or rattlesnake.

The above applies to low sec ratting/deds as well. There's no real need for ishtars for ratting. Don't mine unless you really, really need to. It slow as balls and worse money than VNI ratting. Unless you've got yourself the good null only ore, but that means you're producing, selling locally or have a buyback.

Most people in the game suck and are unable to do shit unless they group with other bads. So whether you're one of those or not as bad as you think, there's room in the game.
Not playing for long periods is fine since training happens in real time, but you will want goals or a decent group (i.e. newb corps out of highsec) so you don't just spin your ship in station or do missions when you can play.

tfw i realized yesterday that with 10 days of trade skills on a flat remap and 2b in capital you can make 800m a month by logging into a single character twice a day. i'm seriously considering pulling my scout out of her hole, putting those 10 days on her as well and setting her up trading in a different hub with my current liquid capital. Then after a month or so i might be able to start plexing a second account
>>
>>121848213
Its a lot harder than it used to be but its not impossible by a long shot

incursion runners can make a 500m in a weekend for like 3 hours combined and come out with that much. Multiply that by two weekends or even 3 if you're salty and you can really make enough.

I used to be able to pay my subscription through a secondary exhumer alt I had, I'd play eve but let my second character run in the back ground while I did homework and shit, by the end of the month I'd pay like 400m for a plex and I had like 120m left over. However now that its over a billion I can't really do that as often as I used to. I probably could still do it but it'd take WAY longer to do

He means trading, and with only 2b he's probably doing full autismo station flipping.

>>121848213
everything depends on the speed with which you grok the game and the wisdom of the choices you make. a guy from here paid for his first plex during his first week of trial by doing balls to the wall null exploration out of thera. once you have capital, station trading snowballs in effectiveness with number of characters. once you understand the market, trading between regions can be very lucrative relative to the investment. three characters doing PI on one account in a good wormhole can put out half a plex to a plex per month depending on what you're making and how autismal you are. etc, etc.

mining on one account? nope

The pod (or any ship) makes a call for one warp away, if it gets pointed at any time in that, it stops and the ship stays until the timer logs out

I'm not kidding when I say this, they have tornados that prowl near by jumping stations and they gank your cyno, gank your web alt, gank any other cyno they can find then attempt to gank your freighter

Which is the primary reason no one travels in JF's in highsec at all without a webbing alt, hoping that even works, since all it takes to cancel your warp is an instalocking point from a t1 frig or some shit.

People who don't die to ganks only use their JF in lowsec exclusively and they light perfect cynos and they cover all their bases

I'm sure

if you were in PL for more than a year you'd know how often it happens, goons create watch lists using pilots they know, the characters being sold as JF pilots on the character bazaar, they then use KB information to identify cyno characters and alts and compare them to relative data on where the JF pilot sits and where the cyno alts sit.
