This thread is for high rollers in the ISK game only. If you don't have a minimum of 200 million isk and/or can't restock all of your fittings without going broke, you are not a high roller -
Fellow high rollers....does it ever get tedious to bring down the ISK? What do you do while you're doing it? Do you take breaks? I've been grinding the last couple hours and have only brought down roughly 36 million. Its getting exhausting to do the work required to bring it down and I'm losing my nerve to do so.
How do you guys cope with the tedious and boring methods in which you stock your piggy banks? Do you take breaks or do you do it all at once like a long haul? |

I don't stock my bank. I just take names on the field and ISK just gradually fills up.
There's no point to having ISK if you have to grind for it. Just let it build up naturally.

I don't really even pay attention to how much I am making. Some games I do very well, making 400k..some games I only make 100k. All I know is i'm not broke, and i'm not losing money in the long run. |

Then you aren't a high roller because you don't know...the high rollers will know what I'm talking about. No offense to you, you just haven't figured it out and you don't know, so I can't really explain to you, you know? I'm sorry :( |

No, I don't know.. and I laughed at your amount to be considered a high roller honestly. I'll just say I more than exceed that threshold, and some. No offense, but you probably only getting your feet wet. |

I doubt that because you have no idea what I'm talking about, but I'm not going to argue with you. My ISK is limitless. Your wallet will run out, eventually. I don't wish to get into a heated debate with you, but I can spend about 2-4 hours grinding around 30-50 million ISK.
Lets do some math; If I did that once a day (lets say 30 on the low end just for giggles)
30 million x 30 days = 900 million a month x 12 months = 10,800,000,000
So yeah...10 billion isk in a year. Dust 514.
That's high rolling, jack. |

Honestly though, I was orignally confused with how I read it. Was not sure what kind of answer you were looking for. As I said though, I make isk , it's no problem.. I don't make no 12 mil an hour like you claim to be.. but I fair well , and my wallet grows not drains. I just don't make it an isuue to go out and make isk, as I am already making it by doing what I logged in to do.. that's shoot hack, repair things. The money is nothing right now.. If player trading does happen, and I like the way it's done.. if anything like eves market, that is where you would see me start to put my money to use and have a reason to grow my wallet more, as I like trading. |

I can't wait for that, honestly. My wallet will bulge every minute of every day!
I have a lot of ideas for player trading, we should chat and compare ideas and see what's good! All I'm going to say is proto equipment in bargain bins is on its way :D

Having so much isk honestly kills your urge to run proto.
It ruins life. It was fun to be broke and imagine what it would be like to be isk rich. Least you had hope when you lack isk.

My character has run financially viably for over a year
I inventory is insane i have 100 deployable copies of 8 fully specced racial suits some with multiple variations hundreds of adv suits And thousands of std I used to have 3.1 billion isk but i spent half a billion buying tanks and restocking my ancient tank inventory
Realistically i never try and make isk anymore I have mountains of isk what I try and do is have fun .which means I run cheap weak suits because proto stomping isn't fun when your on my level...which is why I never run out of isk ..and have enough to enjoy spamming when I feel like it ..for example my birthday was Friday ..i got 100 percent sloshed and before my party i lost millions just with drinking birthday durping ..ill have it back by next week though xD isk is easy to come by in dust ..well fitted std suits only cost more than 20k..that's 10..deaths for a standard payout
Making isk is harder than burning it that's for sure

Well uh, since my total ISK I've ever had totals nearer 4 Billion I gave a tonne away. Around 1.6 Billion to be precise. The rest I sunk into clone packs and PC stuff. Now I'm down to a far more moderate 270 million. Even then, I still make ISK. Playing intelligently and not stupidly I suppose. That being said there is the occassional game where its a total bloodbath and I lose a crap-tonne. Doesnt take long to earn back though.
As Kira said, Proto is dull to me now. Yeah I run it all the time, but 16 out of my 28 fits are full BPO fits. Being rich is kinda dull, just like when you finish GTA V Story Mode. :(

It really is...but I like being at the top of the mountain so to speak. I don't yet have access to proto gear, but based off of my math I'll be able to run it 24/7 indefinitely.
I just like money and just like in real life I chase money, I chase it here too. Its just me, man. I want to see a wallet that bulges because in this game and in real life I don't ever want to be without. |

I'm more of a fan of never stepping foot on the battlefield and making ISK.
I don't have to even play to be rich at this game, or even deploy once lol

When I run low on ISK, I go and do a few PC's to get the money back.
And I also don't actively try to get rid of it. Eh. Unless you count that one time I bought 100 ADS's to learn how to fly.

ISK is my KDR.
I find myself gaining 10 mil one minute, losing 400k the next and going "What am I doing wrong?"
