    As multiboxers, we're not your average 1-account-blob-until-walking-dead-comes-on type, so we tend to make this stuff look easy/OP to the casual observer. It probably IS an ISK-faucet once you get it working well, but the whole "vanishingly small numbers" perspective and time investment in getting it to the faucet stage that the WoW devs understand apparently still eludes certain companies.

    Tell that to Fozzie and CBB
    Wanna earn your customer's respect? Go to bat for them. Defend them and what they do. Don't roll over on command, and don't punish them for being human beings. And no, this ain't aimed at CCP.

    Keep pretending you care about EVE ISBoxers and not just their money, Lax.

    I'm usually under the influence of something when I'm running. I definitely was when I was making those videos and when I had the friendly contest.

    When I first started out I couldn't even think of doing that. It's practically muscle memory at this point.

    If high sec incursions aren't an isk faucet then Fozzie sov and jump fatigue are a brilliant success.

    I think he means compared to WoW PVE. In EVE, you can get suicide ganked and lose your shit, or get jammed at the wrong second and lose a ship, whereas in WoW, if your tank or AOE dies, you can rez him.

    Add-on: all the non-boxing QQers who I've run into who complain about incursions being faucets want CCP to fix the system for them when the mechanics are already in place to shutdown incursions, both the actual constellation, and fleets.
