A little background first to these questions: Now a level 6 surveyor, I have only done enmatter mining. Currently using Tik200. Three globals, nothing fancy yet. Dropping probes at 110 m distance, either line or carpet bombing. Not following any loot/skill gain/rebomb theories. I have gotten lots of advice from soc-mates and from EF and try to read everything that I can find. It seems that for now I have managed to keep afloat by trying to auction stuff in smallish stacks for optimum MU. But, it's been too short time to make any real conclusions. This is why I am asking these questions from you, more experienced players, especially those who are profiting or at least staying afloat. I am not begging for your best secrets, just some general hints.
Thanks for advice!
- Can you stay afloat and keep making a small profit this way, if you only mine enmatter and sell it on the auction? (keep hunting, crafting etc out of this)
- How much more PED overhead do you need if you start mining ore too? Seems that I can rotate a couple hundred PED on enmat rather long even though some auctions tend to take 5-7 days to sell.
- How often do you have to adjust your prices? (for example falling solis price atm)
- Why does everyone seem to run around at PvP areas? is that really that profitable, or are people just doing it for the thrills?
- Mining seems pretty much to be one-mans-work. Are there some ways of cooperating besides sharing mining tips?
- When is it worth it to chip out Engy or Drilling, if you don't plan to craft or pvp at all?
Thanks for advice!
