Okay. Fine. But your $700 Titan is worth nothing to anyone else beyond pixels. It doesnt matter to anyone that you bought it with your PLEX instead of ISK. No one is obligated to care. ---

> [@Swing\_Vote1](#): > > Ah yes, the proud mercenary—paid in _what_, exactly? A tip jar full of Catalysts and broken dreams? I received a monthly ‘salary’…and SRP for the lost Catalysts. A win-win scenario ! That was around 2 years ago…and I have not ganked since. These days I prefer solo stuff as I often just don’t have the time for lengthy battles or hanging about waiting for a gank target to be found. ---

Nah…I haven’t been ganked since being a 6 week old noob in 2021. A few months back I was in a fleet and got the kill shot on the very same guy who ganked me back then. Ah…a dish served nicely cold 🙂 ---

Exequror Navy is getting nerfed -12.5% next week, lol. With the Surgical Strike rollback that’s a ~23% hit. Now we just need to nerf Catalysts by the same (or higher), ie: -15-20%. ---

> [@Meridan\_Night](#): > > When you buy PLEX you don’t actually buy ships/assets in the game. You buy game time (leaving the cosmetics out for simplicity’s sake). You always only buy game time when you buy PLEX. No you don’t. Any plex you buy is credited to your account, not converted to game time. You could use it for game time, or convert it to ISK to buy a few Marauders and implants, buy that Skill Book that always seems out of reach etc, or use it to make your own ship skins. You can use your PLEX for anything you want within game limits. If Plex was just for game time it would convert instantly, not sit in your Plex vault. ---
