Skill Farming: Difference between revisions

Line 209:

Enhancers, extractors, and other necessities can also be purchased from [[Loyalty_Points#Loyalty_point_store|Loyalty Point Stores]], the [[New_Eden_Store|New Eden Store]], etc., rather than on the open market. Those suppliers will require some other form of currency ([[Loyalty_Points|Loyalty Points]], PLEX, etc.), but look into them. There are bargains to be had! For example, as of this writing the New Eden Store is selling extractors at 10 for 1,120 PLEX. At an exchange rate of 3.2M ISK per PLEX, that’s about 353.9M ISK per extractor. Market prices for extractors run about 356.8M ISK, so the New Eden Store saves me about 3M ISK each. Plus, if I buy them from the New Eden Store, I can redeem them in any structure. Even ''I'' can do that math!

If you intend to use your profits from {{dothis|'''skill farming'''}} to pay for your EVE account, you’ll also need an honest reliable source of reasonably-priced PLEX (because you can’t pay for your EVE account directly with ISK). As a currency, PLEX ~~are~~ a bit more secure (thanks to the [[PLEX_Vault|PLEX vault]]), and anything you purchase with them from the New Eden Store can be redeemed at any structure by any character on the same account.

Note that you can’t pay for your EVE account with PLEX if you purchased that account through [https://store.steampowered.com/ Steam] or another [https://secure.eveonline.com/etc.aspx third-party retailer]. Those retailers accept only [[EVE_Lexicon#I|IRL]] currency. You can open another account directly with [https://www.eveonline.com/signup?invc=26a9b526-f13a-498a-9b03-81e48bcc8d9f EVE], but you’ll be starting over as a [[EVE_Lexicon#Newbro|noob]].
