I decided to purchase an eve account after playing the trial for a bit really enjoying it, alot more indepth than other MMORPG's and I guess that is why I am enjoying it more at the moment, takes some brains to actually play
My name is Loneez ingame if anyone on here is interested or just wants to say hello
I am currently attempting to play a mining character but tempted to buy a second account to use for PvP and agent missions so I can then use the cash from mining to kit him out is this a good idea?
Comments
Hope I gave you some ideas
U can use ur pvp-char for babysitting ur miner if ur mining alone in low sec space. I use mine for this. Good since ur corp mates cant always come with u to just watch u grind roids.
Tip is. Start up a PvP-char and a miner. Play the pvper long enough to be able to do some damage while u train ur miner and mine in high sec. After u got some money and decent skills u can venture out in to lower sec.
Dont forget to train the miner for a hauler.
You'll find that many, many players use multiple accounts. Personally I use two, and my brother three. There's many things to do in EVE, some require that you be in a specific spot to do it, so having a skilled character at that spot all the time is useful.
If you're primary game time is spent pvp'ing having an industrial alt (either Mission runner, Miner, or Ratter) to login without having to lave your combat area is helpful. Jump Clones are great to return somewhere to make money, but the 24 hour timer can really suck.
If your primary time is spent mining, a second account would be a great way to experience pvp. If its not for you, having a second combat account that can tank a belt for you, or handle your hauling, or branch into manufacturing earlier than your miner can are all reasons why you'll find yourself paying for another account.
EVE is great that your character has no limits on what it can do or become, but it can take a long long time to accomplish everything you'd like your character to be a part of. And, eventually you'll find yourself excited by the end of training, and you'll be racing home to catch that skill that ends 3 minutes after you're supposed to be out of work. That excitiment even stays with you when nothing ends for 30 days, and you start another 30 day training right afterwards (BS V -> Drone Interfacing V). Sadly, that might be why I use two accounts.

Hi Lonewolf well to be honest with you Yeas is my answer. O yeas correct thinking if you got the IRL cash to pay for 2 accounts.
I started out with one account and now I got 2 accounts in Hulks, 1 Hauler account and I also got a PVP account and I been thinking as of late to start another hauling account .
Soo some call me cracy but I dont go out and drink.
I stay home and talk to friends over chatt and have a Realy good time in EvE
I have goals in EvE and I enjoy the game by playing it
