| ISK is currency used in the world of EVE. It can be used to buy goods, upgrade a ship, make repairs, buy a house, food, equipment, and many useful items needed for survival. Making ISK requires your character to have some type of job. These jobs can include part-time jobs, odd jobs, and careers. There are many jobs to choose from. Your character can be part of the military or a bounty hunter. These characters have to do what they can to make ISK. Many people view ISK as they would any other money. They like to save it and make lots of it. Some jobs pay more than others. Your character can switch jobs in order to make more ISK. By learning new skills and applying them, your character will begin to take on new responsibilities which will lead to a larger salary. |
| ISK can also be earned by selling items, ships, information, and other items that other characters may be seeking. Finding out what other characters are after is a good way to make some friends while trying to gain either ISK, new weaponry, or a skill. ISK may also be bought on web sites like Trade4Game.com. These web sites will sell EVE online currency to those who are in need or have not been able to play EVE as much as they would like. Trade4Game.com sells different denominations of ISK starting at $20.00. Buying the currency needed to get ahead in the game is sometimes necessary, but you should try to build valuable skills that will help you along the way before buying extra ISK. |
