Frigate market

I tried to estimate what makes sense to produce. The numbers of course a very rough. At this stage I need only estimate the game worth the candle in principle or not.

Standard Caldarian frigates

Name Volume,pcs Price Volume, KK Isk
Bantam 500 50К 25
Condor 300 150К 45
Griffin 50 350К 17.5
Heron 300 200К 60
Merlin 600 400К 240
Kestrel 350 400К 140

Merlin, Kestrel - these are frigates production of which makes any sense.

Standard Amarrian frigates

Name Volume,pcs Price Volume, KK Isk
Crucifier 50 200К 10
Executioner 200 250К 50
Inquisitor 30 400К 12
Magnate 100 150К 15
Punisher 150 400К 60
Tormentor 50 100К 5

Volumes are significantly lower than caldarian.

Merlin, Rifter, Incursus and Kestrel. Amarr aren’t interesting at all, the Caldari have two high demanded ships. This frigates that are in demand, and the rest can be manufacturing only occasionally.

Tuomuta

15 jumps from Jita, Amarrs, SS 0.5. There are a lot of free moons, and the moons with offline POSes.

The system is unremarkable and not very frequently visited. I want tryto organize my manufacturing here. And experiments with the destruction of offline towers, too, will put here. I’ve found this system by accident, statics of my WH opened here.

I’ve took off 2 POS with the equipment - cooking of the polymer is over, the experiment completed. A lot of crap, too little benefits ... mostly due to the lack of opportunities to carry by normal transport. Most likely I will move out of this WH at all, but as long as lazy to drag things.

ROL info

There is awful chaos near my home system for last two (maybe more) days. Impudent bandits camp some systems and nobody can fight back them.

It should be noted that it’s easy to create problems for the permanent null inhabitants. It is much easier than to punish those who disturb. A little gang, 3-4 players with their alts can completely paralyze traffic in the whole region.

The main gang catch and decompose to spare parts any alone ship, the scouts warn about defenders fleet.

If you will gather a strong fleet, the gang will just hang in cloak and jiving on them in a locale. It’s impossible to find them and tear off their feet, or make any other educational impact. You can just go to their home system and do the same. Perhaps, they came exactly for this - to lure your fleet into enemy territory, into a trap.

Unless of course they have a home system, which doesn’t necessarily. In fact, it’s possible to live in NPC-nulls or empire and terrorize the null-citizens…

So no one fuss ... Everyone is sitting quietly and waiting for the freaks get tired to camp blank system.

Meanwhile, I bought a char with weak skills... but he has good standings, allowing to put the POS in the Empire. I need about a day and then I'll finish cooking fullerenes, remove POSes ifrom WH and try to setup them in the empire. There, it is at least relatively easy to deliver components and fuel by freighter, not industrial ship.

Also, I’ve scanned the moons in my home system ... the result predictably dull. The tastiest is busy unclear by whom, these guys need to be evicted. And there are not a fantastic profit to drop, so is it worth to bother?

Update: It was just beginning of the end. ROL have fallen, territory was lost.

Isanamo

Slowly I look for a place for POS. This should be a system with SS 0.5-0.7 owned Caldary State, possibly not very far from Jita. Although highly doubt that there are empty moons - I'm not alone so smart. Perhaps I should do just the opposite, to look away? Well, okay, let's see.

I do not want to haul freighter in a system with SS below 0.5. In a system with higher SS 0.7 POS installation is not possible. Standings I have no one, I decided to start to rise to the Caldari, look at what this translates to time and labor costs.

And now I flew a little exploration

Isanamo - the first system that caught me on the way. SS 0.6, 2 jump to Jita. There must be no place to drop an apple.

Isanamo IX Moon 1 – There are unpowered tower and something else on the little things. Owned by Bushwood Industries, only 2 members ... I can try to declare war on them and demolish all.

Next moon - Clandestine Capsuleer Operations, 3 members. This is online, studded with guns, nets and warp disruptor.

The third - a little more serious, big tower, 9 members. Too well protected. Corporation DeathStar Research. It is noteworthy that the corp year offwars behind it does not appear. For the year to this tower nobody encroached? This is encouraging ... although of course it can be hanged yesterday ...

Meanwhile, in another window, my agentruner flew in Waira, SS 0.5 5 jumping from Jita. I will take note of this.

Fourth moon, Omnicorp Unlimited, 15 members, all evenly studded with guns ... and the first time I meet signs of life in the lonely pod hanging under forcefield ... Next

The next POS is offline, corp Starship Systems with two members ... but enters into an alliance with 20 other people.

Hmm ... and even there, in the sense of near the same moon, not so far away, hanging station I did not think it was possible, but it is possible.

Next is Widowmakers, 3 members, with link to killboard. Link is dead. But in the history of wars appear two wars. Guys have destroyed someone's tower, and the second time seems to have failed. Further.

Lone Tower offline and two containers. Monkey Labs - 9 members.

Paranoid Android Traders, 3 members online, but the defense weak.

Creative Industries LLC, 5 members, similar to the previous.

Hanover Industries, 11 members, fractional, well armed.

Inaya Innovations, 9 members, offline, and still a couple of months ago, they were cut down with impunity settlement

Looked information about the corporation that endured. 1 member, but right orderly forests of some ... While it is possible that at the time of the war in the housings are still people co-opted. It is logical not to involve major corporation in squabbles, and because you can run into trouble. Simply keep supporting exclusively for military action.

It was Isanamo XII-2, a good candidate for demolition.

Oh! And all this horror, it looks just like the death star ... Corporation Koichi Technologies. 14 Membury, is part of an alliance of the 8th corporations.

etc. etc.

That is, mainly small muddy corporation without a name and history. Not included in the alliance. C 1-2 meaningless for both wars, or do without. Next, I note only those that are of interest.

XIV-13 anchored tower. It looks like the remains of demolished aspiring previous owners.

XIV-3, 8,18,19 also anchored tower only.

XIV-2, 20 offline

XIV-9 Death Star is offline :) It should declare war and bang them just for fun

No free moons. None at all

The system Saatuban SS 0.5 - the system is also suitable. Jita is close.

Ken Interplanetary Communicaton

KENI - a small Russian-language PvE corporation created in order that its members could calm and relaxed make isk for ... we do not care for what. The main thing that they are not dragged their problems into corporation. There, in another life, you can be a pirate and suicide, declare offwar to Concord and everything else. It is understood that the case is not very profitable, but fun. And come to us not to do so, but only to make n-th sum for their entertainment.

Corp we need to simplify and facilitate the logistics industry. Save on infrastructure. Sometimes - in order to protect their investment.

  • We live in WH
  • Plex run in Null
  • Agent run in Empire

If you suddenly come to mind imagination to apply for membership, think - for what you need us? And why do we need you?

If you've decided, write mail to our CEO, MrKen Tsukaya and try to coherently express your thoughts

P.S. He is not good in English and has a bad temper.

C3-FTM Acid Reaction

C540, C320 are top, the most expensive fullerenes. And the mined not anywhere .. therefore, logically, should produce big profits. Let's count

  Quantity Price Buy price Sell price
Megacyte 80 1980-1925 158400 154000
Fullerite-C84 100 1700-761 170000 76100
Fullerite-C540 100
83540-78000
8354000 7800000
C3-FTM Acid 2 4620000-4551000 - 9102000
      419600 1072000

It's funny ... personally dug top-end process gas is really profitable to almost half. But buying it for processing - is meaningless. At about the same absolute revenue figures, but the working capital needed is several times higher.

And how about transportation? At a minimum, the risk increases in proportion to the cost of the necessary components and the volume too:

  Volume, m3 Quantity pcs/day Volume, m3/day
Megacyte 0.01 1920 19.2
Fullerite-C540 10 2400 24000
Fullerite-C84 2 2400 4800
C3-FTM Acid 10 48 480

Volume compared with the previous reactions is much more. That is, if mine C-540 for own production, then it is very advantageous that the volume of the finished product is reduced by 50 times. But if you buy raw materials, then it should not be  carried too far. Or at least in the empire, if you carry it by freighter (for security reasons), the volume of traffic is not so important, but use the conventional industrial ships to carry as much cargo in the wormhole is very difficult

There is a growing need for a POS in high-sec.

Unexceptional Frontier Deposit

Arkonor

15000

Bistot

25000

Crockite

25000

Dark Ochre

25000

Two covertors have mined all arkonor in approximately 2 hours. With a short break to shoot down sleepers, who had awoke. Fit was not perfect, low slots were occupied by warpstabs, mine lasers were strip miner I – without crystals, because I haven’t skills yet. The third char drove on bestower with 6 containers. Next morning I’ve mined a bit (10K) arkonor and a bit Bistot... For 1 day covertors paid for itself.
Overall, not too bad, and there is where to grow, but there was one problem ... all together it takes 430,000 m3 - a completely unrealistic to push this amount through a hole with size of BC. A processing in WH has an efficiency of 75%, regardless of my perfect skills. 25% down the drain.

There is an alternative - compress ore. To do this, I need two weeks - to continue learning the skills needed to build Rorqual, 2 weeks to build it and 2 months to learn only the skills to get into it.  After that, it will need to learn a lot of things. Not less than six months ...

While writing, came to mind another option - to build an orca (which I also can't build, and fly on it too). To drag the ore directly to the hole, then drag it by bestower to the other orca standing outside ... Nightmare, and too risky ... but possible. Get much better than fly from POS to station, but still hemorrhoids. But if we take seriously mining, the volume will be 2-3 freighters for the day ... this is impossible.

That is, in fact, you can either take a character with perfect Rorqual .... and so I immediately get ill at the thought of the price, or wait patiently until it learn .... my God, as long. Or invite miners and let them have a headache ... Then as usual everything is not just so, spies, intrigue, and the mass of any problems.

P.S. Sleepers respawn in these gravics  very weak... Skiff could tank they easy, covertos warp out without problems too, they do not even have time to scratch the panel. Actually originally barges were taken in order not to sit just waiting to respawn sleepers, they only appear after about 20 minutes on site.
