Please keep us updated with how your Legions are going to win fights!

Especially the part where the second character on the same account flying an unfit Legion with nothing but command bursts to boost the first Legion’s performance to win solo fights sounds intriguing!

Let us know how that works out.

So for your second account you are going to push in another 2000$ on top of your yearly fees?

Well, hats of to you and thank you sir for feeding the server hamsters properly!

Have you also considered investing in a monocle? All serious players have at least the lower grade one…

What the f\*\*\* is this some kind of bot? What the hell are you in here monologuing about yourself? Seriously? I mean the truest reason I’m even playing right now is to practice with AI. Can you answer the same questions? Before I analyze every single sentence of your post… Is there a reason? Or has that already been accomplished? Bro it’s just a tool, not a centerpiece. .

This is like the ultimate newb post. Hello I know nothing and make huge mistakes in front of everyone that I do not learn from. Let me tell you my life story… Because apparently there’s an audience following and listening?

Help me out here brother this is what I’m getting out of it. Am I interrupting some kind of audience that you have of people reading your theory crafts and some kind of educational sense? Are you role playing right now? Or is this a dead thread where no one really agreed with you and just kind of made fun of your twisted AI generated slop? No offense facts bro.

Your model would work. If it were not the lack of any real cost/benefit. You are still not creating the short cut you think you are. All it does do is promote a fallacy that one can get somewhere faster. If there were truly endgame content. You fallacy might hold up. While I appreciate this works for you. This advice is not going to work for a new player. That already has a steep hill to climb. Throwing around 30 billion isk. Is not going to be doable for the new player. Who might have cracked a few hundred million ISK just last week.

And as a station trader. I can train a new toon in an alpha account for a lot less than 30 billion ISK just to haul my goods. Use that 30 billion Isk and drop that toon into a small hauler with all the bell and whistles. And still turn a profit. Even if it were to get blown out of the sky and podded. That toon would have no implants that I would worry about losing.

Again if you are convinced it works for you. Great. As a returning player. You have the ISK and resources to chase a bad idea. To a new player. This is, to put it simply, bad advice. As it calls for both Isk and resource a new player simply does not have. Will inevitably find that the flaws in your plan starts costing beyond that 30 Billion Isk.

It comes down to this any shortcut is not a shortcut. You might in the short term think you are getting somewhere. But in the long term find yourself just running in place and losing Isk all at the same time.

Is this some ‘claude plays EVE’ kind of project?

Where all decisions, thinking and writing is offloaded to an external brain?

So, people sell characters for ISK on the Character Bazaar, selling for anything else, modules, PLEX, sexual favours is against the rules.

ISK is an ingame currency that cannot be transferred out.

So why would anyone leaving the game want a pile of it?

Maybe you need some sleep.

Honestly, i think its time to block this person.

It was zero sense at the beginning…  
It was zero sense in the middle…  
Its still zero sense at the end…and i feel the bot is now getting off topic.

Theres no such thing as an ugly cat…they are all cute as a button. But the OP certainly is the exception.

Rip out the skills that don’t serve the story — sorry, PI, you’re worthless to us — and reinject something with an actual identity. Trading. Standings. A dedicated purpose the character didn’t have before, built on top of the skill points it already earned the hard way.

Do you realize that had you not bought the toon and just built the toon. You would have been further along. All you did was take a character and did what you could have done just as easily without spending any Isk in the Character Bazaar. Seriously all you are doing is enriching some else wallet. Not getting anywhere faster. Just throwing ISK around. More ISK and time. And for what again? A short cut that some AI says is a good idea? Really? Seriously?

I am further along just doing an alpha account. Building a character that will do as I need it to.

But congrats on blowing that 34 million Isk on a character. I am sure the person that sold it to you is happy to be 34 million in the black.

I do find it useful.

It’s an inside look at EVE player mind. The “my thread, my rules, I’ll report you” is a symptom that keeps repeating, it has to be a sign.
