If you have got a few hours to spare for a ratting session, chaining NPc can provide a lot more eve isk than a standard blitz method. Chaining works on the basis that as long as at least one ship in a group is left, any other ships in the spawn that are killed will respawn after a 20 minute wait. The basic idea behind chaining is to blow up only high-bounty battleships and leave everything else alone. If there are no sufficiently high-bounty battleships in a spawn, kill the whole group so a new one will soon respawn in its place.
Since each battleship will respawn after 20 minutes, the ships in the first asteroid belt should have respawned by the time you are finished with those in the last belt. You are essentially provided with a constant stream of high-bounty battleships, but this comes at a cost. Since you are not finishing off entire spawns, there is no chance of getting a faction commander, hauler NPC or an officer spawn. The battleships that re-appear will always be exactly the same as those that were killed. This is a popular strategy for those looking to make a large, stable income in nullsec.
