I'm trying to get a ship together for null sec pvp later on but I need to increase my isk reserve. What are some good ways to make ISK? If mining, what are the best places to do it? I'm Caldari by the way.

A ship? You'll need a lot more than one ship if you wish to pvp in null for longer than an hour.

I wansnt been playing for a while, so my informations might be abit untrue. But a year ago lvl4 missions were the best way to do isk befor 0.0 sec. If you are alittle of economist in your blood, then simply do trading. Mining is ok, if you like playin passively. Where is a good spot to mine is a relative thing. I liked systems without station, beacouse there is less ppls. And try tend to be in 0.5 system as with lower that security is, bigger the ores are and longer you will mine them to mine them out...For the new ice mining, i have no idea how they changed it. All i know is, that old ice fields were remowed and that you gota scann out some mining site now.

Good luck

And like Chillon said, 0.0 is a dam of a dangerus space. One ship wont last you more than a hour in most cases...So dont go there unless you are good skilled and full of isk :) Or atleast able to get some isk somewhere...

I haven't made any new ISK in a long time since I made over 100 billion in Factional Warfare before the change but I'm still somewhat up to date as to what yields good ISK. FW is still very good ISK, if you know what you are doing and can handle yourself jumping blind from system to system. LVL4 missions in high sec is still acceptable income for minimal risk. Mining is terrible unless you can run multiple accounts and get your hands on fleet boosts from an orca or rorqual(low sec).

Even the best pilot in EVE will eventually jump into the wrong system and get gang banged to hell and beyond, there is no escaping that since even if you bring a second account in something either very very fast or something with a covert cloak and scout the path ahead someone will still get you with a cyno, scouting also removes a lot of the fun with PvP and also takes a lot of time. Thus one ship in 0.0 will not get you far at all.

I run two accounts about to have level 4 missions I run primary as Military and my secondary as Industury Currently using a brutix till I hit lvl 4 missions and a Noctis to salvage a loot all missions I ran a few level 4 missions the other day
with my corp I average between loot and salvage 25 million / hour

That's horrible. Get a tengu, start blitzing missions, stop wasting time salvaging, and you should be looking at around 100mil per hour (if you are smart with cashing in LP).

25m/h is pretty low, you can get more on a new character with under 1M SP ratting in .2 sec space
