It's mostly fuel blocks and stront and ammo so it's not extremely valuable, just bulky. I've been recollecting all my crap that got scattered about lowsec by asset recovery. Blockade runners to get them to hisec, took a lot of trips.

Could have sworn I had a trio of deadspace-fit strat cruisers I ran 10/10s with. Dunno what the gently caress happened to those.

Just pay some pubbie pennies to haul it for you.

I agree a BR can be popped, I've been extremely recalcitrant on moving T2 capital BPOs, which is why I still sit them in a station in lowsec and run the jobs remotely.

what is a "T2 capital BPO" considering that there are no such things (jump freighters, the only t2 capital, are invention-only, as are the only t2 capital modules)

Asset recovering my Rhea cost 10b. Fun!

Speaking of asset recovery I'm not sure its worth bothering to get my crap. It would cost a ton to get it out and its scattered across several low sec stations. Then I would have to haul it all to hisec, and possibly out to delve. Cruisers and smaller I can toss in a blockaid runner but BC and BS hulls are sorta stuck out there.

I am thinking it would be easier to just get to delve somehow, buy and fit something for ratting or whatever, and then start building a new stock of pvp fit ships. Probably start with a curse and a huginn or phobos, then add some random t1 cruisers, maybe a BS or two, maybe some BCs, and possibly a command ship or a couple of logi depending on whatever the meta is.

It is tottally not worth it to try and collect a bunch of T1 BC and BSs and get them to Delve. Just pay off the asset fine and put them on the market in lowsec for a 20% discount. Someone will buy it and you can use your isk to get new poo poo in Delve.

What are all these player-run research facilities I'm seeing? Is that the new hotness for blueprint research? Are there risks to using them in exchange for the lower taxes?

Player-owned Engineering Complexes have significant bonuses for decreasing job time, so using them is generally a good idea. You will need to pay them a usage fee, typically, but it should be lower than NPC (usually.) You do run the risk of the structure being shot and destroyed while your job cooks, but for research, the blueprint will always land in Asset Safety. If you're manufacturing stuff, though, you'll lose the inputs -- some of them will even drop in the wreck.

The time decrease is much, much better in nullsec.

I keep all of my blueprints is a high sec station 2 jumps from Jita. I just make copies and fly them where ever I need in a T3 cruiser. Why would I want to risk valuable blueprint originals by taking them anywhere dangerous? Copying is dirt cheap.

I have thought about doing this. Are there opportunities to run data/relic sites without getting killed by sleepers? If so is it any different that doing it in null?

C1-3 can spawn pirate relic sites but you better be spamming that d scan

You can check wormhole system kills by searching for the name on zkillboard. Won’t help you if you’re the first person to die that day, but it’s always worth a look. Or just don’t bother with relics and datas in wormholes. Go to someone else’s space and run their sites instead.

I spent some time doing a bunch of relic/data sites in wormholes while I was teaching myself how to do the gibson hacking minigame, and I never got got. I even took out some poor newbie in a T1 scanning frigate one time with my retarded SAAR/warp disruptor astero fit. As long as you employ d-scan liberally and don't tunnel vision too hard on the hacks, you'll probably be fine.

Typically when new players are getting into exploration, I'll recommend they tour low class wormholes for that reason. Lots of benefits -- way more sites than the picked over, goonrushed delve, their data gets put into our WH tracking program which helps out our FCs, it teaches basic scanning and survival skills, and if you find connections to exotic nullsec, it robs hostiles of their sites. All in all, a low-tier active ISK making activity that has concrete secondary benefits to both player and state.

Sorry to keep spamming these "is X still a thing" questions but, are POS reaction farms still a thing? Some passive income on a ~2 week cycle would be ideal due to my work schedule.

They're now in whatever the industrial versions of the new structures are, no more reaction farm setup bullshit it's all in one structure and no loving with chains and storage. It's much better than it was.

Yeah, new reactions are much, much more user friendly. You can do 2 week cycles in the new system too, but with the added benefit of "you won't lose your entire nest egg if you get hit by a bus and can't meet the required feeding date."

So what do people still use POS/fuel blocks for? I have a pretty large pile I could use, or just sell it off.

They're used to fuel all the new structures, too. You also need small amounts of them as reaction inputs.

if you need to haul small m3 high value items (in highsec) use a travelceptor and don't afk. tank ad <2 sec align.

brs will be killed because people kill them for fun

dsts can be bumped by me

jfs are big and obvious and slow, but unkillable if you know what you're doing. if you're asking this question you don't know what you're doing.

if you fly a bs you're slow, noticable and killable which is the worst thing you could do

Don't haul in highsec, pay a pubbie to do it and collateral that poo poo for market price + 25% so you can make a dece profit when globby bumps it and blows it the gently caress up.

Today is a wonderful day, because it is New Ship Day! :D I can now fly Dreadnoughts! I do not have any heavy capital guns skills (that will be another month :() so for now I have gone with Large battleship guns. At 98 DPS is a force to be reckoned with! I mostly just fit it with tank. I think I'm just going to use it for hauling cargo right now (until I can use the proper guns). Now the only Gallente ship I can't fly is an Erebutt! Thats next I suppose, though it will cost so much :(

Joined GoonWaffe (and started playing the game) August 23rd. Today, reached 10B net worth and bought next month's sub with ISK. Thanks again to whoever posted that station trading guide a few pages back.

Glad I could help! Honestly, the first 10B is the hardest. Now that you have some money in your wallet and you know what you are doing you should be able to get to 100B in two-three months, tops. If you haven't trained Tycoon yet do it. It doubled my rate of return easily.
