The hulks bonus is yield 25% more at max level.
But if you look at the other barges they all get a bonus to mining laser yield to make it near equive to the hulk.
So I went and traded in that pathetic 8k ore bay for a 25,700 m3 ore bay and disposable retrievers. No worry about gankers in the cheap flying jetcans and I only lost very tiny bit of yield since I don't need to worry about tanking my 10 mill isk ships throw 3 MLU II's and the hulk no longer has a profitable bonus.
It does have a worthwhile bonus IF you use it in it's intended role. In a fleet op with hauler support, it's still king of yield. |

It does have a worthwhile bonus IF you use it in it's intended role. In a fleet op with hauler support, it's still king of yield. It is IF it can be decently defended, so it can fit 2 MLU II's if not it has to be tanked or you risk losing a 200 million ISK ship. But with the hassle of getting a fleet op together when I can take my three accounts load up three retrievers with 3 MLU II"s and only lose 2% yield compared to the tanked hulk, which is the easier, simpler and faster option?
So the hulk need to be tanked but not the retriever? Why? |

Warpshade wrote:Hulk changes = Buffed default ore capacity Buffed Tank Still the best ship for yield Yup that got nerfed alright  The only nerf it received was to it reputation as the only viable T2 Ore mining vessel. If the other vessel's are now better suited to your playstyle, simple sell your hulk, and buy a Mack/Skiff...Profit???
They nerfed stupidity power on it tho. You need a much higher level of stupid now to think it's a good idea to fit a hulk with cargo expanders and cargo rigs. |

If mining in a safe high sec spot, max yield + looking at local is all you need. |
