Im getting off to a pretty good start with mining, first hulk is trained and purchased and was ripping up roids last night stripping belts clear well under an hour, mind you there weren't a lot of respawned roids yet, I think the area im working in gets picked clean pretty regularly. But with 1 hulk and 4 haulers I had no issues with can flippers, and the rat's that spawned were decimated pretty quickly with my drones. Im looking forward to 3 more hulks in the coming future and a orca with mining bonus mods, will definately sweeten the pot.

I pulled in about 2-3 million isk in the first hour and some after I was setup in just junk ores, so 0.5 isnt extremely profitable, but it's very little risk and one can almost afk mine if you keep ontop of the hauling.
Wow, guess I'm doing pretty good on my retrievers. I average about 6.5 million isk an hour with 3 retrievers and 1 hauler.
