In fact all Eve play is sub-optimal unless you are an illegal goldseller or can leverage your in-game persona into some RL profitable venture (as perhaps the Mittani is doing). If you have fun mining Gneiss great.<br /><br />In any event Gevlon has pretty much proved that high sec hauling is the only optimal solo playstyle and Kartoon proved that leading one of the biggest nullsec alliances then stealing all their stuff is the only optimal group playstyle.Stabshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08716211705647213383noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-942059813481083566.post-23891062503598993392012-12-22T10:54:04.226-06:002012-12-22T10:54:04.226-06:00Yes, but because Zydrine is so compressible compar...Yes, but because Zydrine is so compressible compared to low-end minerals and thus easily added in to the trips he already presumably makes, this actually skews his choice farther away from gneiss and towards high-sec ores, working from that assumption. The way in which normal jita prices are altered in the scenario given, is to prorate shipping costs by a third party at market rates onto the cost of the materials, which hits low-end ores much harder than zydrine.Rammsteinnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-942059813481083566.post-38947314929946930102012-12-22T05:01:29.082-06:002012-12-22T05:01:29.082-06:00You however are predominantly mining to support yo...You however are predominantly mining to support your own manufacturing activities.
