covetors are tier 3 mining barges yet still need mining barge 5 Everytime you buy something that says "made in china" you are helping the rising unemployment in your own country unless you are from china, Buy locally produced goods and help create more jobs. |

Rokhs have been used for mining for years. Yes. They cab outmine a Retriever. Yes. They don't take as long to skill for as a Retriever.
Having tried one, mining with them is a real pain because of the number of mining turrets and limited cargo space.
750 m3 per minute is an interesting number. My main mining character is near full skills. She mines 1867 m3 per cycle when boosted by a skilled Orca pilot. That works out to more than 41 m3.sec with the 133 second cycle time the Orca provides.

typical miner
take a perfectly good combat ship and turn it in to a mining ship, then you dont even add any buffer of any kind so you get popped |

There is only one problem with combat ships that are repurpused for mining operations.
Cargo space.
You actually have more yield than you have cargo, which means you need to micromanage your cargo by dividing the miner lasers in two cycles, and dumping the cargo between those cycles, lest you run out of space and the lasers shutdown. Rated ARG for Pirates. **** you. |

Ospreys also get into the 700-750 m3/minute range (using mining drones and Caldari Cruiser V, 600-625 without). They can generally fit about 700-800 m3 of cargo space without being too flimsy.
Biggest issue with the Rokh is the cargo. With (2) MLU2 and (5) T2 mining drones, it pulls about 1200 m3/minute but the cargo bay is only 625 m3. So you have to stagger the strips and move ore every 20-30 seconds. On the upside, you can fit it for about a 175k EHP tank.

On the downside your mining into a can that you are either: 1. Tractoring to an orca every 20-30 seconds 2. Leaving in a can which is easy to steal out of.

On the upside you could mine straight into the Orca's corporate hangar. They don't call them "giant jet cans" for nothing |

You'll want to get over this block real fast if you want to succeed in EvE Online. Spreading yourself thin means you'll always be behind everyone else. Spending the time to max out a ship you like to fly and the skills needed to support it will mean you can compete on the same level as pilots who have been around for years - you can't learn all the skills in the game, but you can master all the relevant ones for a few ships in a much shorter amount of time. |
