I do some semi-afk mining and would like something larger than my Iteron V to haul ore in high sec. Is there anything larger besides a billion isk freighter that I can use to transport ore from the asteroid field to the station? I have 2 accounts, one for mining and the other for hauling/refining the ore.
Thanks in advance! :)

There is only one ship that can haul more ore than an Iteron V you can use in your situation: the 350-400 million ISK Orca. You can't use a freighter, because freighters can't scoop cargo from space. You can't use a Rorqual, because a Roqual is a capital ship and you're in hi-sec. No other industrial or deep space transport can hold as much cargo as an Iteron V. That leaves only the Orca. With that you get 40,000 m3 of corp hangar, 50,000 m3 of ore bay, and a 30,000 m3 cargo hold. The hold gets a bonus in size due to the Industrial Command Ships skill, cargo expanders, and rigs, but neither of the other are affected. ______________________________________________________ Isn't it enough to know that I ruined a pony making a gift for you? |

An Orca? They can have something like 92k M^3 cargo holds. Plus you can ganglink your miner guy nicely.

The Orca was the other one I couldn't think of at the moment. Unfortunately it requires Mining Barge V which I haven't even begun to train on my hauler character.
Welp, time to get training! :)
Thanks everyone.

Not counting rigs, with skills at level V the Occator gets 26,850 m3 vs the Iteron's 25,270 m3 of cargo hold, assuming all low slots get fitted with Expanded Cargohold IIs. Unfortunately, as the Occator is a T2 ship, it only has 2 rig slots. If you go nuts with T2 rigs, twin Cargohold Optimization II rigs push the Occator to 38,664 m3. With 2x Cargohold Optimization II rigs and a single Cargohold Optimization I rig, the lowly Iteron V comes out with 41,848 m3. The Occator will of course be tougher, but can't hold quite as much.
Just by way of comparison, the Orca with T2 cargo rigs and two expanded cargoholds, gets 87,784 m3 of cargo space, plus 40,000 m3 of corporate hangar, and 50,000 m3 of ore bay, assuming you take Industrial Command Ships all the way to V. ______________________________________________________ Isn't it enough to know that I ruined a pony making a gift for you? |

I believe your maths is off there...
Unless something's changed the Orca can hit around 103k m3 with cargo expanders and rigs. --

An Iteron V with five Expanded Cargohold IIs, 2 Medium Cargohold Optimization IIs, and 1 Medium Cargohold Optimization I, is as good as you're going to get...non~Orca...for a "High~Sec Hauler". With that Fitting, you're looking at 41,848 m3 of cargo space!
DONT go with an Occator IF you're worried about ISK/Hour. Yah, the Occator may be "stronger", but the Iteron V is faster in Real-Space and Warp; as well as more Agile (for quicker alignments to warp)
PS: If you want a few tid~bits of an added bonus for your Iteron V, slap on a Salvager and a Tractor Beam for when your mining character kills rats...

Because fitting T2 rigs on silly T1 hauler is logical...
