With no empire presence for more than a couple of hours. (Except the ocassion that an old friend war dec'd my alliance. ) We started in a Class 2. Got too big for that. Moved up to a 3. Made what we could it there. And now we reside in a Class 5, with a static Class 3. We feel this is perfect for us. Because it keeps alot of traffic out of our hole. (We mostly get large fleets that bore, or die easily) And the logistics is actually easier than when we were in our Class 3. I dont see any of my guys leaving anytime soon. Except maybe a couple of INDY guys who think they can make this kind of ISK in High Sec. Best of luck to them. In closing. Its a PITA sometimes. But nothing that makes this much ISK should be easy. =) Holden ChristAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5844783702515986839.post-46979460675820683092010-06-23T20:37:05.314-07:002010-06-23T20:37:05.314-07:00Much of what was said is true.

Fuel runs can be a roblem, but simply having a 2nd corporate hanger array at each POS used exclusivly for fuel, allows us to keep almost a years worth of fuel on hand. <br /><br />Other than that, the sleeper sites offer a most lucrative income of a couple billion ISK every couple of days.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5844783702515986839.post-27586681950123266252010-04-02T05:31:55.573-07:002010-04-02T05:31:55.573-07:00Well... it's been 3 months i've found a Cl...Well... it's been 3 months i've found a Class 1 and now i'm living there. With my precious Tower enough defenced to let me sleep with no worries (when me or my mates aren't online).<br /><br />A class 1 is perfectly soloable and can be easily cleaned by a 1 person.

Now that 0.0 can get hidden belts just as good as our W-Space belts it's no longer a special bonus for W-Holes. plus they get a local and probably a 2-3 system warning of hostiles, rather than looking for probes every 5 seconds.VonBargenJLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03180741314238102657noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5844783702515986839.post-78521032097266835792010-03-01T05:41:35.455-08:002010-03-01T05:41:35.455-08:00From my short experience it seems that you must be...From my short experience it seems that you must be willing to put in a lot of work, including always exploring neighboring wormholes for sites. We may have had too large a team because we always seemed to run out of sites way too fast (even neighbors). The amount of energy you must put in can make Eve more like work, however it can be extremely lucrative.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08233346662838842387noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5844783702515986839.post-1301274116178576552010-03-01T05:28:20.719-08:002010-03-01T05:28:20.719-08:00SD,

Even in the course of the last month I seen our Static Class 2 system go from 50/50 occupied/farmed to almost 90% occupied and farmed (with the most noted exception the system you vacated).<br /><br />Class 2 is so bad now that we have abandoned our plans for the Class 4 with Static 2 and are going to look at a more nomadic w-space life in the near future, with plans to attack a Class 4 with a Static 4 in the future.<br /><br />The key for us was the fact that we are/were burning 8M isk a day to keep the large POS going. Just not worth the cost.<br /><br />Also key is the plummet in min prices. The w-space existance in a class 2 just does not have the ROI it did even a month ago.<br /><br />So back to high sec and Scordite and Plag till we figure out what to do next.<br /><br />MickMick Flahertyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14753804064625354757noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5844783702515986839.post-5151323326367444342010-03-01T03:27:56.049-08:002010-03-01T03:27:56.049-08:00It was the same with us, not because sites ran out...It was the same with us, not because sites ran out - we figured out within days how to have an endless supply - but more because of time issues when doing it with few people. <br />I and a few others however are now training alt accounts purely for WH's because we did have much fun in there, but when using alts we think we can evade the issues we had with having our mains in there, leading to less time issues.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5844783702515986839.post-15929386195063186982010-03-01T03:19:55.840-08:002010-03-01T03:19:55.840-08:00This is increasingly true, I will agree.

One of the other things we have noticed is that even within a corporation, we've found that some people who <em>loved</em> the wormhole when they first moved in, decided that it wasn't really a long term option for them.<br /><br />After doing this for almost a year, we've learned that it is, as much as anything, a lifestyle issue.

We have populated 3 holes thus far and will agree with most of what you have said.<br /><br />The current home of Expedition Arcadia is a class 2 with statics to hi sec and class 1. This fits the bill nicely right now. We have a large tower and the access to fuel in hi sec makes it very easy to maintain. The same static provides us with a stream of visitors that offers alot of fun stalking and demolishing! It is much less lonely than our old class 2 with statics in lo sec and another class 2. We also found most of the guys coming in from lo sec were much more experienced pvp's and we had much greater ship loss.<br /><br />Our ultimate goal in entering WH space was to each get a tech 3 ship that we have built. We are approaching that goal slowly but steadily and I believe we will have this accomplishd in the next few months.<br /><br />As for us, we are thourghly enjoying our EVE life and have no intention of leaving for k space anytime soon!!Thomasalehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04615983336836445978noreply@blogger.com
