I have a bunch of MCT's and i want to utilize my other to alts on my main omega account. i was thinking of using them for PI, Skill farming when all other stuff is trained (i already have them both with all the proper implants and boosters too) and indy. with indy. what would be the easier and more beneficial thing do to, Make Tech 2 Bps to sell? or Manufacture certain things using buy orders for all the mats etc? Looking for some opinions on how to use them both to get some good isk income etc....ty!
Reactions are low barrier of entry and entirely time gated on production queue with no research required on the blueprints, just figure out which reactions will make you the most, skill into them and get churning.
but arnt reactions costly?
That's a part of the process figure out which ones have a good rate of return and then just pump those out, buying the mats and selling the end product. If you are in a large corp or alliance usually you can find some industry guy who will pay to use your slots. (Not a euphemism)
i do like to do reaserch! so ill do that..ty very much.
I was four days into negotiations with my corpmate when I found out it WAS a euphemism!
and can that be done with setting buy orders for the mats and still be profitable?
Make one of them a hauler
Yep! one is trained for a BR
Tough to go wrong with Accounting V, Trade V, and Gallente Hauler V. Bonus points if you pick up enough skills to cram a cloak on them too.
Now you have some alts that can haul shit around for you while you main stays deployed in the money making zone. Nowadays they'd just take the Pochaven highway, but you could also stuff one or both in Thera.
Based on when the holes are favorable, you shuffle stuff in from Null, then shuffle stuff out to Highsec. Or just sell it in Thera itself.
Looking forward to other players ideas. Mine seem antiquated.
if this is one account then you’ll want to do PI, anything that uses research and manufacturing slots, trading (max sell/buy) orders, and contracting.
PI - few methods: max extraction from planets and put the stuff up for sale, manufacture on the planet and extract those products for sale, or factory planet import/export which requires market stuff or the right planets.
Research - researching tech 2 BPCs, buy some cheap BPO and make copies to sell via contracts.
Manufacturing - manufacture with what ever BPO or BPC you got.
Market alt - park the alt at a trade hub and make them your main shipping destination to sell all your loot or wares.
Long ago there was a time when research agents were lucrative passive income. They aren’t so much now. But maybe over years you’ll get a bill from the data cores.
Dreads and/or FAX 😇
Fax?
Logistic Capitals for powerful remote repairs, cap and shield transfer
I started mine out as PI, Basic Hauling, Skill Farming Int/Mem. I added some BPO research/invention slots too
And for a while I also had them have Capital Parts construction slots too. But have since ripped those skills out when they did the capital changes a few years back because I stopped building caps.
I recently got in to reactions and I really wish I had done it sooner. It can be quite profitable, especially if you have access to moon goo through your alliance.
Is it actually possible for mct on a single account actually pay for itself ? I thot skill farms were nerfed it’s not something I’ve tried before
Train all your character slots for PI and scanning. You'll want those skills on all 3 slots on every account you have
Hauler, PI, trader, maybe basic scanner and once that's done, skill point farmer.
