It doesn’t take multiple days. It takes YOU multiple days.
We might even be talking weeks…
This is a joke, right? I mean are you really serious with this?
You have to be a WoW reject to even remotely think that your thread here has any merit at all.
This cant be a serious thread. Who put you up to this. Is this some kind of new weird corp initiation?
I would think even Wow players know that you need to level up to be able to kill more powerful things and that levelling up requires more than a few minutes. IDK, never played the game, I’m more of a FFXIV Catman.
There is also Abyssals, Homefronts, and Trading.
Just imagine if someone told her about how skill training used to be with Learning skills. ![]()

Spent my newbro money down to 20,192,367 isk on skill books and a Kestrel using one of the community fits, then went and did one hour of mission running in it.
At the end of one hour, he’s back up to 26,029,269 (mix of mission rewards and incidentally completed dailies/career tasks while missioning) and has 2,569 Sisters of Eve LP. At jita buy order prices, just converting to something simple like probes, SOE LP currently nets about 1850 isk per LP, or about 4,752,650 isk.
So, basically one hour of running a mix of level 1 and 2 missions on a freshly born alpha character flying a community-fit frigate to afford a cruiser hull.
Don’t forget when you actually lost skill points in a T3 strategic cruiser on dying…
The op will never have to worry about that.
Pfft, T3s. Don’t forget to update your clone.
No idea what you are doing, tried doing a Level 2 mission in a frigate, like you, and its not working. They are damaging me for more than i can repair, even when speed tanking with afterburner and orbitting at 2500 meters.
In other words, need a Cruiser for level 2s. Destroyers wont work because they have the same repairs as a frigate, less slots for resistances, and are slower and bigger, so they take more damage than frigates.
Level 1s only pay around 100k a mission.
A cruiser is 15 mil.
And as i said before, the combat anomalies such as hideaways, burrows, and refuges, also do not pay enough to get 15 mil for a cruiser in a good amount of time.
In other words, you can not progress in the game doing PvE. Unless you have no sense of time and grind for days or hours non-stop.
Thats why im here on this forum. To give feedback to the developers of Eve Online so they can fix it, so you can actuually progress in Eve Online doing PvE content. Especially in high sec, which is the only place you can actually PvE in, since in low and null you are hunted all the time.
If it works when I do it, but it doesn’t work when you do it, what do you think that might mean?
But you can, which I have definitely demonstrated. So you’re just… lying, at this point.
Here is exactly what I did:
-Create new account, self-referral link for +1m SP
-Roll a new character
-Fly to the nearest career agent system
-Run 12 missions (enforcer/soldier of fortune)
This got me about 5 million isk between the missions, daily completions, and career track progression gifts. Since there’s an event running, though, there’s a major shortcut here, and after 12 missions I flew to Jita, claimed my 155 Warpath Operational Intel and sold it to a buy order. That brought me up to 33 million.
I then bought skillbooks, spent ~800K of my referral SP, and grabbed the following Kestrel fit from the community fits:
[Kestrel, Melamori’s Day 0 Abyssal - T1 Darks]
Ballistic Control System II
Ballistic Control System II
1MN Monopropellant Enduring Afterburner
Small Clarity Ward Enduring Shield Booster
Small Compact Pb-Acid Cap Battery
Small F-S9 Regolith Compact Shield Extender
Arbalest Compact Light Missile Launcher
Arbalest Compact Light Missile Launcher
Arbalest Compact Light Missile Launcher
Arbalest Compact Light Missile Launcher
Small Core Defense Field Extender I
Small Core Defense Capacitor Safeguard I
Small Bay Loading Accelerator I
Caldari Navy Nova Light Missile x1500
Calm Dark Filament x3 (you don’t need this for our purposes here, they’re just in the fit).
I then looked at the agent finder and decided Airaken looked like an alright place to run missions. It has two level 1 security agents in the same station, and a level 2 in another station.
I ran level 1 missions for the two agents out of the first station, declining any that I thought would be slow/inefficient. In practice, this just meant “Any mission that would take me out of system”.
After a few sets of level 1s just to get my SOE corp standing up, I moved over to the level 2 agent. Whether this is an improvement or not is debatable, as being able to grab two missions from one station is really efficient.
Over the course of an hour’s worth of mission running I received:
1.8 million in mission rewards
1.8 million in time bonus rewards
750K in bounty prizes
A 500K first day isk bonus
A 500K daily goal reward (for earning 50 lp with any corp)
375K in Air Career Program rewards
2569 SOE LP
You not training skills likely is part of it…and no it doesn’t require 3-5 years of training, with the amount of time you’ve been on this forum, you could of had a lot more performance out of your ship.
You are running light missiles, which are the best for pve. I am running energy turrets (amarr) You will always outdps me in both raw damage and turret tracking.
Also, light missiles have a very long range compared to energy turrets. My small long range energy turrets on Standard Small crystal has a range of 10-13 km. I will end up getting hit, compared to you sitting 20 km away.
I was doing short range before, and even when doing long range all the enemy frigates and destroyers were hitting me pretty hard. The cruisers could not hit me, its the frigates and destroyers that have perfect tracking.
And basing your money making strategies off one-time methods that can not be done again is not reallly a good strategy.
If you can’t progress past a cruiser - you’re seriously doing something wrong.
This is a lot of words just to say, “Hm, yeah, it looks like you’re using effective tactics and I’m not.”
That aside, I could easily do this on an Amarr charcter, and might even be happy to demonstrate, except it’s pretty clear that you’re basically just trolling via Brandolini’s Law.
I am not sure there is anyone in a worse position to give Eve Online related financial advice.
Theres these 25,000 bounty frigates…Coreli Guardian something…they have high resists and do alot of damage, even when im orbitting around them with a afterburner at 800 meters per second…they take very little damage and deal alot of damage frequently, very good turret tracking.
Other than that, sometimes theres too many frigates / destroyers, who naturally have very good tracking, and i get hit hard and have to warp out.
I guess theres a big difference when you do Level 2 security missions in a tech 2 fit frigate using the best weapon system in the game for pve, and being normal and not caring about min-maxing, using whatever weapon system you want, with a fighting frigate and normal tech 1 and tech 1 npc-dropped modules.
You guys keep saying i am trolling i am trolling, yet i am trying to play the game normally and am failing, meanwhile you guys are doing the same things in super expensive fittings (Tech 2), using the best weapon system in the game for pve instead of any of the other 3, which would represent the actual game more, and using methods to make money that are one-time and not part of the actual game.
At this point I’m willing to just give you the ISK to upgrade (provided you have the skills for said equipment)…
The fits that was linked is literally useable by a day one character. Missiles are also not the best, just the easiest to understand how to apply.
You should really be using a cruiser (or higher) for most missions. Not that you can’t do it in anything less - but completion times will be drastically reduced.
