You’d want to join a null sec group for. Zen View Profile View Posts. Without hacks? Everything except of RMT is allowed, and hacking a client wouldn’t help much as the majority of operations are on the server side — which is why EVE Online used to run on the most powerful supercomputer in gaming business. I would really really really suggest you to start learning a lot about the game, if you mean it seriously.

So you’re new to Brave, maybe new to nullsec, or perhaps you are a returning player. But one thing is for certain, we all need ISK to blow up more ships! Obviously Omega clones may wish to use this but they have access to a greater sources of income Planetary Interaction, Incursions etc. I will go a bit more in-depth on how manufacturing and importing works but I will assume you know how to rat and mine and show you how to make money I will try provide useful links. So after you’ve mined your ores, you’ll want to get them compressed, you can find which structures do so by using Brave Infrastructure List. By doing so you will make it easier to transport if you need to and get more buck for your ore. After doing so you will want to visit the link above Buybacks and find a program to sell your ore back to, make sure to follow the instructions carefully and you’ll get that sweet ISK in no time. Generally you want to remembers your ABCs. That stands for Arkonor, Bistot, Crokite and Spodumain all of which are the most valuable ores in our systems. Look into moon mining as well for great isk — but its only available for a short time. Moon mining guide. There is another type of mining kind of called gas huffing which I will talk about in the exploration section. Required skills: Can vary from race and which ship you are flying, for the Vexor see: Free Ratting Cruiser for Alpha Clones Upfront cost: Little to none, the dojo gives out Vexors and Catalysts both Gallente , but all races can belt rat atleast. General fits Ratting fits for Alpha Clones.

Saarith has been playing Eve Online since and has touched upon most aspects of the game. It is written for people that have played the game for a little while and are familiar with some of the terms used in Eve.
If you haven’t played the game you should check out my overview of Eve Online. Income streams can be roughly summed up in 3 categories. Passive, semi-passive and active income. They each have their pro’s and con’s and there really is no single best way to make money in eve online, it all depends on your gaming style. For example, if you can play eve constantly for several hours a day then incursions might be the best way for you to make money, if your time is limited then manufacturing and trading might be the best way for you to make money in Eve Online.
Passive income comes from activity that requires little actual gamer input to earn the isk after the isk source has been set up.
Examples of such are datacore research, BPO research and planetary mining. Semi-passive income is generated by activities that require some amount of player input on a regular basis. Examples of such are mining, manufacturing and trading. Active income is generated by constant player input.
Examples of such are mission running, wormhole plexing and incursions. Let’s start out with passive income sources. There are income sources everyone should aspire to have as they take very little time to manage and can be a great way to make money with very little effort in the long run. Planetary interaction PI for short is a method in which materials from planets are mined, refined and combined to form POS modules. The basics of PI are explained in this excellent guide on planetary interaction.
Briefly the skills needed are the following:. If you intend to do PI you should try to get those skills to level 4. That way you can almost maximize you income while not spending to much time on skill training. The income from planetary mining varies greatly between highsec, lowsec and nullsec, with nullsec and wormhole space having the best income. In highsec you can expect to earn at least a million isk a day from each of your planets when you get your skills up a bit. In a good nullsec location you can expect million isk a day for each planet.
Buying and researching BPO’s is a nice passive income source and the best part is that you can get started with minimum science skills. The income will however get greater the better your science skills are. The main skills in question are:. The isk amount possible to earn depends heavily on the blueprints being used and the availability of lab slots.
However, 30 million isk a month for each slot in use should be attainable. With advanced laboratory operation at level 4 you can use 10 slots simultaneously meaning profits in the region of million isk a month. You might wonder why I don’t just tell you what blueprints to research. The reason is that should I recommend any specific blueprint, everyone that reads this will do the same and thus cutting the profits for that blueprint to near zero.
Just do a little research on the market, check contracts for copies or researched BPO’s and see what’s being sold and for what profits. If you find blueprint research promising you should read this industry guide. It goes over all the basis for research and manufacturing. This used to be a great way to make money in Eve Online, I used to make 12 million isk a day myself doing absolutely nothing for a few months, then the rest of the eve world caught on and finally CCP nerfed it with changes to factional warfare.
Today you can get about k for each datacore sold, meaning that those 12 million isk a day became about thousand isk a day. The time needed to get decent research agents, coupled with the skills needed make this something to reach for when you have nothing better to.
You need a skill called Research Project Management to level 4 to be able to have 5 research agents. Also you need the science skill compatible to the datacore at level 4 minimum to get good research points, the good news here is that the same skill helps you with invention should you go. You also need a standing of 5. The Connections skill helps with.
Higher standings and the Negotiation skill also give more research points. If you go for datacore research at this point I wish you well, just don’t be upset if the rewards are not exactly what you had in mind.
This type of income source is ideal for those that cannot spend many hours a day glued to the computer. For many an eve player this is how they make money in the game. In this category we have, mining, manufacturing, invention and moon mining. Mining is really easy and can be a useful income source.
A max skilled, fully fitted Mackinaw pilot can easily pull in ore for 15 — 30 million isk an hour in highsec, depending on Orca support.
You can read this guide on ore mining to learn everything there is about ore mining. The way this can be a semi-passive income source is by mining semi-afk only advised in highsec. If you use a mackinaw with its large ore hold you can set your ship to mine large asteroids and then take care of other duties for up to minutes. You can also do the same with mining ice, however, that is usually not as profitable.
There is a risk though of getting ganked, even in highsec, however, if you fit your mining ship properly the risk is reduced. I have lost a couple of exhumers because I was semi-afk, but that’s just the cost of doing business, the isk I have made while doing laundry is far more than I have lost to suicide ganks. Almost everything in eve is player made, as such manufacturing has a really important role in the game. Manufacturing can be separated into several fields. In every case you have the same basics.
You always need a blueprint that details the required materials for a single production cycle and you need a manufacturing slot. That’s about were the similarities end.
The different types of production need different types of materials and blueprints, T2 production needs blueprints that are invented and often materials from moon mining, T3 production need blueprints that are reverse engineered from wormhole sleeper loot and also materials from wormholes, rigs use salvaged materials and POS modules use materials from planetary interaction.
The first thing you need is to get the skill Production Efficiency to level 4 and preferably to level 5. The reason for that is to insure maximum profit from your production as higher skill means less materials used.
Next you need a blueprint. You can buy a blueprint copy BPC that has already been researched from contracts or you can invest in an original blueprint BPO and get it researched. Having ME at 10 and Production efficiency at 5 means you will have no waste in materials per cycle which increases profitability in the long run.
Before you buy the blueprint you should do some market research. You really don’t want to produce something at a loss. You should calculate the cost of production using the price of sell orders. The reason for that is simple. Let’s say you have You can sell the tritanium on market via sell orders for Now you need to be able to sell the shuttles for more than And this holds true even if you mined the minerals yourself and did not need to buy. Now if you have found an item you want to produce, you got the materials needed and are in a station with a manufacturing slot the rest is easy, simple right click the blueprint and select manufacture, enter the amount of cycles and press start.
As for profits that really depends on the items being produced and your skills. But if you find the correct items and have the BPO’s researched you should be able to earn about million each month from each manufacturing slot you can use. For T2 production or T3 production this can be considerably higher, but those require more skills and extra logistics.
Invention is the process needed to produce T2 blueprint copies for T2 production. There is not much profit from T2 invention alone compared to T2 production, but if you have a nice chain of BPC creation and invention you can make a nice amount of isk from your research slots.
The same skills as in blueprint research apply with the added skills of racial encryption methods and two science skills depending on the blueprint being used. It’s recommended to get those skills at least to level 4 as the invention chances increase with higher skills, as can be seen with this invention chance calculator. Trading goods is by far the best way to make money in Eve Online.
Every space billionaire in Eve Online has earned their ISK from trading at some point and the riches people of eve got there by trading. Having said that trading is simply not for. You will be going head to head with other players in a competition to get the sales. It can get maddening to have your order undercut in less than 5 minutes and have that repeating over and over. The best way to trade is to find a station that has nice orders with a decent margin, good turnover and few competitors.
There are not many like that left though, in most cases you have to make do with just 2 out of 3. Set up your buy and sell orders and trade away. It is absolutely necessary to get your Accounting and Broker Relations skills up to reduce taxation. You also want to get your trade skills up to increase the number of orders you can have running at the same time. Margin trading is also a useful skill to.
Here are a few helpful Eve Online trading tips and tricks. These are mostly suitable for newer players starting out trading, but might also be useful for more experienced traders. Moon-mining is the method of creating T2 materials from base materials mined of moons. To mine moons you need a POS and a moon with some materials in a system with security at 0. To see if moons have materials you need to scan them with moon probes.
There are moons left in the galaxy that can be profitable to mine from but they are. The best moons have long since been taken by the large alliances in Eve Online as they can earn 10’s of billions of ISK each month and are the fuel that runs the alliances.

I prefer the. Two months ago, I decided to change. Today, I can fit comfortably inside my shiny new Hel that I picked up for a lofty I thought it would have taken me a long time to grind the ISK for this baby. Just the hull would have taken about hours to grind in my interim Nidhoggur. I only play Eve about 10 hours a week.

You can see how this was becoming a problem. I had gotten into carrier ratting because it seemed like the best way to make ISK with my skills and interests.
