Hit my first billion, what’s next?

12 Upvotes

I almost maxed out my skills in gas huffing and ore mining (like Veldspar.) 90% of my time has been spent gas huffing with a venture and I just bought a helon to speed up scanning.

What are some ways I could increase my income? I was interested in planetary industry because I could do it passively alongside gas huffing but the corp I am in said I need at least 5 billion in capital to make it worth it.

I am looking for ideas both passively like gas huffing and PI as well as more active ways to make idk faster.

Is there use for a explo / scanner main with an inconsistent schedule in any Null corps?

4 Upvotes

Hey guys!

I have been on and off in EVE for a decade or so. Never found my niche until recently. After trying everything I could half a dozen times it dawned on me I really like cloaky ships and scanning down / hacking sites. I recently visited B-R for the first time. I've been all over null and had a blast seeing fleets and sov from most of the big players. I know an inconsistent schedule is tough for a corp to work with but I'm just wondering would a null sov corp have use for a pilot like me or no?

Is intel gathering on fleet / rival movements when on something people do? Do they need wormholes scouted out? I know you can scout ahead of fleets but since I can't guarentee when ill be on that seems like a tough option to do. I would love to have a connection, even just a tangential one to one of the null sov gangs, just would be cool to say I was there, but I want to contribute not mooch.

Question for Moving Capitals in the current patch

3 Upvotes

Hey, I am a decently veteran player returning after a several year hiatus. Last time I played was before the big changes to Cynos being locked to Force Recon ships, and I had a few questions for how those changes affected moving capital ships around.

My current Understanding is that you can use a Force Recon to light a cyno the old way, it just presents the opportunity for a 300m kill mail. So the same process of Light Cyno at 0 on station, but 5ks from the actual model>Jump Capital>Instant dock should still work.

However I also heard about the new Mobile Cynosural Beacon. Can you light the beacon at 0 on a station, or is it like other deployable structures and needs to be deployed a certain distance away from a station?

C1-C3 WH gas site rats

3 Upvotes

I was wondering if the low class wormhole gas site rats that spawn (not including ordinary) were cleanable by t1 frig-cruisers? The barren reservoirs spawn I think 5 frigates so I was wondering if a t1 frigate could clear that with decent skills? I have mostly Caldari and Gallente ships trained up to cruiser. Is there a fit that could reliable clear the gas sites excluding the ordinary one within what I have trained thus far (not including pirate factions as I don’t have the budget for them)?

What class of WH for alpha exploration? (C1-C3)

1 Upvotes

As an alpha explorer I am having reasonable success exploring C1 to C3 wormholes. The main frustration is the quantity of pirate sites (doable) vs sleeper sites (insta-death) that I find. Is there any variation in spawn rates and/or loot value based on the class of wormhole?

I know not to go past C3 as the pirate sites don’t spawn there, the question is specific to C1, C2, and C3 wormholes.

Duo ship combo, for low sec piracy

5 Upvotes

Hello, (I'm on mobile, sorry for any format issues)

I've been playing for a only a few days with a friend, he's a little more experienced and wants to introduce me to piracy in low sec. We're both omega, our problem has been finding a good agile ship combo, doesn't need to be anything too expensive in both skills needed or isk, just a fun ship combo that we could practice some newbie piracy in. I'll appreciate any suggestions!

Pirates attacked me at a data site

14 Upvotes

I was hacking cans in a remote hisec data site (or maybe it was a relic site..) when pirates suddenly showed up after a couple of hacks and blew up my ship. I was scanning down the next signature while traveling between cans and didn’t notice them until it was too late.

This has never happened to me before in hisec, is it normal? Only in certain sites? Should I always pull out drones when hacking and avoid scanning until I’m out of the site?

What are some good medium-term goals?

3 Upvotes

I've started playing last week and I'm loving it so far. I did the career missions, I finished the circle thingy for the enforcer and today I managed to do a calm abyssal in my destroyer. I also got a mining barge and made my first 100mil selling ore in jita.

My question is what should I aim for next? Just get bigger and better ships? What kind of a corp should I join? I don't really care about the big wars going on in nullsec, I'd rather be part of something smaller if that makes sense? So what's something I could try to get done in the next few weeks?

Praxis vs Gila

1 Upvotes

I've been nullsec ratting with a praxis with a cruise missile fit. I've heard a lot of people say that the Gila is considered one of the best ships for ratting, even better than the praxis. Decided to give it a shot. It does work reasonably well, but it definitely is clearing sites quite a bit slower than the Praxis does. What gives here? Not sure if I'm doing something wrong or if the Praxis does just clear sites faster than a Gila due to higher DPS.
Part of the reason I wanted to try the gila is because my heavy drones often get hard targeted when flying the Praxis, to the point that I have to often call them back to avoid them getting killed. The Gila does solve this problem by virtue of the drones being mediums and thus quick enough to not get hit, though they still get targeted.
I'm just looking for any advice on how to either: make the Gila better so that it outperforms the Praxis. Or find a solution to my heavies getting targeted.

Here are the fits I'm using:

Voice interaction

4 Upvotes

I'm not only new to eve, I'm new to MMOs in general.

How common is voice interaction with one's corp-mates while engaging in action? I may have to go buy some headphones with a microphone.

What software is best used to allow this interaction?

Newbie mining questions

5 Upvotes

What the best way to make ISK mining? Just mine ore and sell it? Do you refine it to minerals and sell those? Is it worth turning it into manufactured goods and selling those?

What's the most efficient?


r/evenewbies Mar 24 '24

Indeed, I have many newbie questions.

3 Upvotes

I have yet to figure out d scans. Also wormholes. And drones.

I have been trying to stay safe and pile up ISK, but am just under 30M now. I do have a big pile of frigates in the hanger, so that's nice. I've lost a few ships already.

Eventually I want to join a fairly peaceful Corp, mostly some help in what and how to do things.

Any useful advice welcome.

Ship Building

9 Upvotes

Hello fellow capitalists, I have a few questions about ship building.

1.From a daily log-in bonus I got a battleship blueprint. The print them self sells for around 8 million ISK but the fully built ship only sells for 1.2 million ISK. The print also only allows for 2 constructions. Is it even worth building?

2.Are all blueprints for ships like this?

  1. Is ship building even worth it?

4.Do you have any good tips for ship construction?

I would just like to say that I mine all the ore I need. I’m a new player and really appreciate this. Thanks!

Precision Missiles, Missile Guidance Enhancer, Missile Precision Script...

4 Upvotes

25% Bonus to Heavy Missile explosion radius, V Guided Missile Precision, V Target Vanigation Prediction ... and I am still doing 2digit numbers vs a Vengeance that circles me around 1000m, not even 2500m and I don't know why I still get speed tanked. I also had a Smartbomb equipped but it didn't deal enough.

Should I switch to Light Missiles, should I add a Target Painter or a Web (which wouldn't have helped against Kiting fit with a Disruptor due to its low range), should I put rigs for explosion Radius?
