    About how much would you say you earn using an 2x hulks + an orca? ISK/hour or something

    that would really depend where your mining 0.0 going after ABC or .5+ going after veld for trit, as well as if you have max skills for mining/crystals and using drones or just pure strip2 modulated.

    Well I'm aming for the same 2x hulk + orca setup with max skills. Would be nice to know how much you can earn in 0.5-1.0 sec

    My maxed hulk can make roughly 10m/h if i dont have to haul mining veldspar. Youre going to be blowing through rocks with that group though, youll miss a lot of time on empty cycles...

    Hard to calculate.

    I can strip out a whole belt in about an hour with two hulks and an orca - but you need a hauler as well to shift the ore.

    Thats in a 0.5 system where the belt just respawned (so small asteroids)with only tech I crystals, single mining laser upgrades, and exhumers IV.

    I'd guess it's about 100-150,000 m3 of mixed ore

    Just ballpark figures from memory - will try to sit down and do a proper estimate when I next go mining

    My guys are first and foremost working on missions (well learning right now but getting them into golems is my first goal) but after that I want to get a mining op setup myself.

    I am hoping to haul in the orca and have 3 hulks... I figure while the orca is docked and dumping ore theyll miss out on the bonus for a bit but not having a dedicated hauler might make up for it. Not sure yet.

    I'm working on getting my group to mission together as well. My main account needs about a month to fit a CNR well but in the mean time I'm running a regular Raven or Drake. The second account is my hauler/salvager and I'm getting it ready for a salvage Hurricane loadout. That will only take about another day or two. The third account I'm going to train up a Domi with since you can AFK a lot of stuff with a drone boat and even use assist with the drones on the main character.

    The Orca aligns a _lot_ slower than a hauler - probably not too bad if the station you're dropping off at is in the same system but if you like to mine in a system without stations the Orca would be slower than doing two runs in a hauler.

    A more important decision is as to whether or not you want to use an extra account for a hauler. I'm planning on five accounts which would give me three hulks, an orca, and a hauler.

    I'm getting closer to having my mission team online, will be transferring my second hulk pilot tomorrow so then I'll have two accounts each with a hulk pilot and a mission pilot.

    @Redbeard & Duane - Do you have enough rep for lvl 4 missions already? My 'main' mission runner can only get level 2 missions and it seems as if you have to do a TON of missions to improve rep and get to level 4 (I do have some social skills to increase rep but still a long way to go)

    My main character is three years old (playing on and off) so I have a 9.6 standing with the Caldari Navy.

    Im at 6.3 for republic fleet (and yes its an older character). The nice thing is that the main can share rep gains with his fleet mates so my main picks up the mission, we do it, and my alts are slowly working their reps up too. When they get high enough.. If i draw two missions i dont like on my main, instead of waiting 4 hours before i can reject the 2nd one I can just draw a mission with one of my alts.

    I did the math with my friend one time... if i dont have the orca hauling too then yield will be greater with 3 hulks and 1 hauler than with 2 hulks, an orca, and a hauler. I think we calculated you needed 5 or more hulks before it was worthwhile dropping a hulk for the orca... but i dont remember the exact numbers we came up with.
