30 million isk? You're over estimating, bro.

People won't just restock protosuits, they'll restock fittings. So lets say a full proto fitting that costs 185,000 isk per entire fitting right? 162 spawns divided by 8 deaths per match (roundabout figure) 20 matches.

Vets will run lower end gear, folks that never had that much ISK and could never run proto will run it 24/7 around the clock and be broke as crap in a week.

Yeah, not worried.

Ok vets such as my self don't die 8 times a match running proto , 2 times at most unless I'm just in the mood or getting pissed off

Semantics, holmes. You're not the never had that much isk could never afford to run proto 24/7 crowd. You decided to pick apart what I said until you found something you could argue with.

So yeah, still not worried. You're gonna be doing the same thing you always were. Some folks will run proto 24/7 for a short amount of time and then they'll fizzle out and find other means to make more isk or return to normal.

Reducing the sp gap a bit. Player trading is a good thing. The money has to come from somewhere anyways. It's not that paying for boosters generates it. And it doesn't make a difference if Player A or Player B is protostomping you. Not even to mention that the suit doesn't make that much of a difference. If it would, I would always use proto. But it's just too expensive for the little I gain from it. Sign up for Caldari FW and defeat the evil Gallente Overlords!

Why do you want to stay ISK positive? See for me personally, its fake money in a video game. The only thing to do with it is spend it. You can't invest it in real life and make dividends with it. So why do you want to stay ISK positive? I'm honestly curious and would appreciate your viewpoint on it. Michael Epic's "EPIC" Proposal to his girlfriend :D

I saw in another comment you said the rich have a limit 200 million is your limit. I personally don't consider 200 million ISK rich in Dust. There are some players who have like literally a billion ISK. Others have 500 million or more. Its a sliding scale I feel like, General. But that's just my opinion of course and I could be wrong.

Thokk Nightshade Montana Militia 855	Posted - 2015.05.28 21:00:00 - [29] - Quote Right now I am straddling the 30 million ISK line. I have about another 10 million in my Corporate slush fund. If I wanted to run pure proto I would easily be broke within a week. Granted I am not the best player out there but I am slightly better than middle of the pack. I am pretty sure anyone with a similar or lesser skill set would have the same issues Consistently running PROTO isn't viable for a decent % of the games' s population at 30 mil. Not sustaining it at least. If I ran my proto logi, it would be very possible to run a negative 1 million + ISK in a single match to refit. Thokk Kill. Thokk Crush. Thokk Smash.

For example if you buy a skin and then sell it to some 1 for 50 mil ISK you could fund 5 district attacks just with that (clone packs are 10 mil now). That way you could fund a war by dumping real cash onto the game. ofcourse the ISK didnt generated out of thin air due to the fact that somebody had to earn that.
