They say they do give it back, but only if they say it is problem on their side. And it is NEVER problem on their side, as we all seen yesterday when only “SOME” of the players could not play the game…

It’s not my 15 hours - why wouldn’t I be okay with it? It’s not an activity I would choose to engage in myself, but I’m perfectly fine with someone else spending 15 hours praying to RNGesus. It’s not my time/money.

> I dont know anything about Faction war, will check it out. What I heard is that everyone is free to kill you, anywhere in space, and if so that is not so good. ESPECIALLY if loot is lame like in escalation hunting.

The opposing side (Amarr if you’re in Minmatar militia, Caldari if you’re in Gallente, or vice versa) will be free to shoot at you wherever, yes. Faction War is a PvP activity. There isn’t really “loot” except from destroyed player ships; the main reward is loyalty points for completing sites or scoring kills.

You absolutely CAN do it as a solo activity, but you’ll be enormously better off if you can find a group to teach you at first.

I’ve read through a little of this post and would just like to try and help offer you some friendly advice.

Stop trying to do things solo. This is not a good game for that especially as a new player. Go find you a small group to work with that is pve focused and learn from them. For the love of God get out of high sec. There are SO many completely dead low sec systems man you can farm for days and literally see no one. The same goes for null and even more so for wh space.

If you would have spent just 2 of those 15 hours flying a shuttle around low sec you could have already found a nice quiet little pocket of space to move stuff into and start making money out of. Will you maybe die a time or 2? Sure but the money made in between will be substantially more than the pennies you are scratching up in hs. The reason the loot you are getting is so cheap and escalation are so rare is because the amount of people doing that activity in high sec is enormous because of the safety of it. Risk = reward bro.

Thank you for your reply and care you took to answer.
