Lately, I’ve started to grow a little bored with my market efforts. Iurnan Mileghere still makes quite a bit of ISK on the market, enough to fund PLEXes for several accounts and still turn profit. But after the events of last month, I promised myself to re-evaluate how I play the game. To that end, I have a bunch of active alts again (oops) trying out different things: exploration, ratting, and even canflipping.
As described on this blog in the past, I’ve spent time in the past engaging in a bit of highsec piracy of various sorts: canflipping, ganking, ninja salvaging and looting, and (rarely) a bit of contract fraud. The slightly seedier, darker side of EVE has allure for almost everyone in this game, even those who choose not to participate in it, if only for how those activities add to the complexity and provide opportunities for all sorts of emergent gameplay. I’ve flown with Suddenly Ninjas, the premier ninja corp in EVE, as well as Naraka., an Angel Cartel roleplay alliance.
I think maybe that’s what I need to do again: get together with some suitably rowdy friends, or just fly by myself, and find ways to keep EVE dangerous. The ninja playstyle works great for me due to me need to fly solo. Otherwise I hold up other folks due to RL spawn aggro. But some things work better in corporations: empire wardecs and ganking, primarily.
Now to find an appropriate corporation – at least roleplay-friendly, if not full-on RP.
