I reckon emerging conduits should also be low sec, but with decreased spawn times and/or better loot. If you want to chain these sites, you’ll need to leave high sec. Low sec can always use more content. ---

You mean the same big boys that never fight one on one, only picking those fights where victory is guaranteed?

> [@Sabus\_Narian](#): > > . The biggest issue is EC are arguable the SOLE way for newbies to make decent money, They were. 😫 I imagine newbies had other ways of enjoying this game long before emerging conduits were introduced. Terrible argument to say it’s the sole source of isk for newbies. New players shouldn’t be spamming one activity anyway. I been around for years and I never can do one thing for long. Plus I find doing multiple things is the best way to make isk. Well at least for someone that dont want to spend all day farming one thing or a bot. > [@Sabus\_Narian](#): > > unless you think they should be mining in a venture. Yes. If you are playing for free then yes your ability to make isk should be limited. In fact I would not be surprised if the main reason the nerf happened was because FTP players were spamming emerging conduits. So thank all the people that are to cheap to pay, and a few botters. 😜 ---

I agree there should be 20+ ways to make money similar in earnings to EC in highsec, problem is we don’t have 20 ways, we get one and then its nerfed. ---

Wow you are stuck on stupid. Not sure how you can agree with something that I didnt say. Regardless, there are many ways to earn isk and it dont have to be up to some standard of a new activity that we should expect changes to. ---

Any nerf in highsec, especially when there the nerf is the only decent way to make isk, is a problem. If there are 20+ alternate PVE activities that pay equal to EC, then most people wouldn’t have a problem with the nerf.
