Is it more profitable to go from T0-T5 less final product or less tiers and more lower tier products?
@nsdocholiday2 ай бұрын
Looking at the raw numbers P4 is more profitable if you are doing all extraction and then feeding it to factory planets, but to do that you need at least 15 planets for extraction(one for each resource), 1 planet for P1 to P2, 1 planet for P2 to P3 and 1 planet for P3 to P4. at least if you want to do it in a timely fashion. P3 is easier to do and scales much better than P4, i really only recommend P4 if you are doing things yourself with it such as building structures, JakeL33t has a video about doing Extraction to P4 and i have experimented with the setup and the big pain is you are basically doing pickup drop offs either every day or every other day. This setup of P1 to P3 allows you to have about 90-100 hours where you can just let it run and not have to mess with it which is ideal for passive income setups.

Can i ask why you dont use the storage unit as a central holding for everything then just have one launch pad? Can you not move materials between launch pad and storage?
@nsdocholiday3 ай бұрын
There are a few reasons, mostly its just less clicks and if you are doing PI across 6+ toons every click saved is a bit of time, but the side one that I ran into while doing some testing recently is if you accidently miss one or two goods in the expedited transfer you have a cooldown where goods get stuck in either the launchpad or in the storage unit itself, the extra 2K M3 you get from the storage feels wasted since in theory you will never cross that threshold> All this being said i am returning to eve after a few month break and retooling all my PI atm and will be putting up a few new vids about it since this vid is about a year old and could probably use some updating.

@@nsdocholiday my theory crafting idea was that you had extractor planets in lowsec on one toon extracting approximately the same quantities per planet. Then dump this into storage on a builder planet in high sec on another toon. This means it could be constantly running???
@nsdocholiday3 ай бұрын
@@smiffyb25 if you are extracting in LS you might as well keep your factories in LS as well for a possible lower tax rate, 10-20% tax rate is the average in HS for planets which really cut deep into margins, i actually was using my HS toon in pochven for a bit to do it since the planets are the same quality as WH space.

I can probably cook up a video about 3 input PI goods, but the margins might be a little thinner in addition that for efficiency purposes you "should" have your command center skills maxed out, this is of course if you are doing factory only planets and not harvesting yourself. I have been on a break from eve due to real life work getting busier so i haven't kept up on pricing but i will hop on sometime this week and try to get a video out.

I will never understand why rats think that camping a empty part of the map is a more effective way of getting loot than rushing into high loot areas. Like yeah I am 100% certain the guy who sat in a tree for 5 raids and gets 1 kill definitely gained more loot than i did moving around the map for 5 raids and getting 15 kills

Great vid new player only a month in just set my pi up wish id seen this video first i live in high sec as im a new bro, making the 5jump trip to my null sec havesting planets is risky business and one planet always out does the other making my production planets all over the shop. Wonder if you had the tech maxed could you do a set up with 3 different t3 making one t4? So instead of 16-4 mabye like 12-3-1? Also fit more storage so you could just collect it once a week? The math hurts my brain 😅

I'm ratting since 2016 :) Talking about "chads" seems stupid. No military guy ever just storms alone hillybilly into a house he has to clear. Guess that playstyle came from COD. As they call slow and steady use terrain and anything else to your advantage. If you really wanna do the "BAD" brutal agressive dynamic tactic you need more teammates to take over once your down.

Impossible to do most tasks. Overloading of tasks as well, way to many and not really a clear task path after the initial few. Screw lighthouse and shoreline quests, those maps are cancer. Reserve requires 20keys for beginner tasks. With rats camping you die and can never extract with the pocketwatch. With chads running around dorms, good luck going to room 220. And then the all mighty one tap scavs thru 20 bushes and several trees. Audio is completely screwed. I even had an argument with someone else cause landmvrk and the other streamers are apparently using 3rd party audio mixers to reduce their own movement sounds so they can hear everything else. Nice to know that I'm the only one in a raid that has to listen to the supply drop. Anyone using another program to improve Tarkov is cheating in my book. I'm not even talking about color correction on your desktop or display either. Trey24k has been abusing the lobby exploit that lets you have 15man squads, still hasn't been banned. Anyways I got to lvl 30 and then it's just a brick wall that feels impossible to overcome and I just can't enjoy the game anymore.

"Ratting" is a combat tactic that tests exceptional players. Hunt or be hunted. The more situational awarness the better and being patient to observe possible situations from hard cover with limited open angles where you are looking or going; will increase your chance of survival against ratting.

The games movement and damage mechanics reward play styles that don’t put themselves at any risk. Possible fix is to make your helmet just protect your entire face, yes unrealistic but it might help the fights feel more fun and fair. Add an adrenaline effect that starts whenever a player is shot that basically gives them the pain killer effect. To all rats, what’s it like playing a game and not really doing anything for extended periods of time?

people are so focused on making tarkov "realistic" which I think is dumb. Veritas has made a similar video complaining about the communities obsession with realism. The fact of the matter is, the game is just that... a game. I don't think having everyone extract camp being the meta makes sense at all. Me watching KZbin in D2 bunker because its the most surefire method to getting kills and loot is dumb. This whole video is just you giving the tarkov devs an out on poor game design where the meta is literally to not play for 20 minutes and left click on people at extract. Its not your fault if you rat either, it just makes sense, especially with the anti-loot system bsg has put in place with the current weight system where you are literally put at a disadvantage for picking up loot. The fact of the matter is, tarkov has gotten progressively worse over the years in a bad attempt at fixing an already broken meta, but at least the previous metas I actually was playing the game instead of sitting in a tree. Great job tarkov devs for making the meta to not play at all.
