SO only 4 more days left until Yogita and I plex our main accounts. Last post I mentioned how plex prices had climbed to 1.2billion isk. When we started playing in 2008 they were 350-360million isk. Amazing....especially when I know full well that players were able to make 100million isk an hour in null sec.
Well we have been ignoring pings for roams, because it is that time of the month. Right now I have about 615million isk raised towards my plex. So if I can manage 200million today and perhaps another 200 on Friday, that means only 200 million is left which I can easily grind for Saturday, and return to pvp like normal. Yogita and I like ratting, mining, basically those "boring" activities in EVE. It is a nice past time while watching a movie, making plans, or even doing some chores (every now and then both of us are glancing at our screens and watching intel channels).
In Eve nothing stays the same, so sitting on billions worth of minerals, or having a very nice wallet is a good thing. If we decide to go full pirate, I am sure we could do it for year until we were forced back to pve. I love doing crazy risky things, even more so when I know I can replace lost assets easily. So my goal is to set up a pattern of PVE and exposes us to risk (actively ratting when a gang is roaming in specially fit carriers), which brings lots of fun not just for us, but for the "rescue" fleet as well.
With that in mind I am seriously thinking about switching to using my Archon, while training for a Chimera (both when fit right take ages to take out). I just love my nid because while I can fit a so so armor tank, I have loads of mid slots to work with. I can't till a interceptor gets popped because he thinks he can kite drones that travel at 6km/sec with insane tracking!!

Plex time
Well its that time again. Plex prices are now at 1.2billion isk.
That means that if we rat at a leisurely pace perhaps 100million isk a day we need only 12 days for one account. But we have 2 accounts each. So 24 days of ratting means basically nonstoo ratting.
It is a good thing that we usually make about a billion a week ratting. Usually 2 or 3 days a week we make 200-300million isk. On top of that is usually what we call our jita pile. This consists of deadspace drops from escalations, or sites we scan down. The last pile brought us 5billion isk each. Currently we have about 1.8 -2billion isk in our jita pile right now.
I think these plex prices are going to drive more people to turn to plex to fund purchases in eveonline. For yogita and I it means that should we have to relocate it is better to drop 100 bucks and make sure we 3-4 months subbed on each account. At current prices though we have to regularly grind for isk a few days a week.
Oh while ratting over the weekend I was tackled by an interceptor and an interdictor. Yogita got carrier free and sounded the siren for me.
As help arrived this happened

As well as this

The sabre pilot surely didn't count on such aggressive action. Thanks to Yogita this happened, and my carrier was saved. Carrier ratting can be exciting when this happens. Other ship classes just cant tank well enough for help to arrive.
