With this strategy, the worst that can happen is my wealth will stop growing.<br /><br />For example, if I were Gevlon, in my head I would think I had 1 billion isk, not the 70 billion he uses to make that 1 billion / day.NPnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1461700565722278823.post-73532237558471903862012-06-29T00:51:32.009+02:002012-06-29T00:51:32.009+02:00Gevlon, I completely agree with you about ratting....Gevlon, I completely agree with you about ratting. I've always been of the opinion that a good ratter wants to make isk, so having shiny stuff that increases your income by 0.1% isn't worth the investment. I fly dirt cheap BS that repay themselves in 3-4 hours of ratting, and I've refined ratting techniques/fit so that I make more isk than most people in machariels. I have more spare isk than they would, AND if some idiot manages to gank me (I'm in null), I've already repaid my investment ten times over, and can easily afford a replacement... (this is solo ratting mind you, no dual box).<br /><br />The best dual box setup would be a max DPS ship (up to four damage modules) with something like a dominix for some support/anti tackle, and some sentry drones assigned to the main DPS ship. You're still essentially flying the same boat, but for a small investment you're adding >50% more dps AND making it safer for yourself. With the new drone damage modifiers this setup is that much more efficient.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1461700565722278823.post-3639372222595628922012-06-29T00:06:14.946+02:002012-06-29T00:06:14.946+02:00"Yes there are ups and downs in the short ter..."Yes there are ups and downs in the short term, but the equity markets are up over any 20 year period you'd care to name."<br /><br />Nikkei 225 is down by > 50% over a 20 year period (June 1992 - June 2012).<br /><br />You should be careful with creating generalized rules from one extremely limited sample.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1461700565722278823.post-30077174874262629262012-06-28T18:40:20.964+02:002012-06-28T18:40:20.964+02:00@Anonymous 10:59, this is why you diversify your i...@Anonymous 10:59, this is why you diversify your investments (so when one thing goes bad you have other things that didn't).

But as you've pointed out before, there's a finite limit on how optimized an essentially grinding isk source can be, ie, once one hits max skills and fully pimped out Machariel, it can't get any better short of playstyle changes which could've been done sans pimp (for the most part).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
