So I'd like to try to get some info on the Hulk tanking setup and what I'm hoping to do and what I have. If anyone does this please let me know.
I've got the 3 strip 2's with t2 crystals, 2 mining upgrades in the lows (still working on fit bit I'll have it shortly)
In the mids I have the gist booster as well as 1 thermic dark blood shield hard and 1 EM shield hardener and 1 eutetic cap recharger
are those 2 hardeners with boostesr enough to tank 'most' spawns in 0.0 or enough to mine plenty?
Theproblems I face, in my area of space I fight bloods, which do thermic and EM which ironically hulk is weakest too unfortunately..
so can the hulk do this with the mods I have or do I have to give up the mining upgrades in lows to facilitiate
furthermore, can the capacitor possibly hope to have 3 strip 2's running with 2 active hardeners and the shield booster non-stop? I'm betting that's a big negative, shield booster itself would require huge, but others say they do it
anyway advice would be welcome...maybe I just need a ton of skills to do this?
like all the shield skills that help resistance, and lower cap usage, and cap skills etc? anyone know?
Thanks

depends there you are. EM hardener are useless against serpentis (dont know there you want to mine, but i have seen a few of in serpentis area :)
The best thing to do is, let a BS tank for you.

Newblet question:
Im mining in a Retriever with a Ferox for cover. When you say get a BS to tank, how can you do that? Whenever rats spawn in on me, they just aggro on the barge, and ignore the Ferox - no matter how much damage it does to them.
Is there some way to chage aggro over to the Ferox from the Retriever?

jump in with the tank before, aggro all npc, stay there and tank until the end of the mining op.

It has been my experience that NPC tend to attack the weakest opponet. Most NPCS seem to go after my drones. I do fine out in 0.5 and 0.6 with just my 5 Hammerhead II's on my Covetor. I don't do low sec so I cant recommend anything there.

My Hulk Setup
3 x Modulated Strip Miner IIs
Dread Guristas Explosion Dampening Amplifier Dread Guristas Kinetic Deflection Amplifier 'Copasetic' 1 Particle Field Acceleration (shield boost amp) gistii a-type small shield booster (a must)
Power Diag II Mining Laser Upgrade
I sometimes swap the mods about and fit 2 mining laser upgrades. Use passive hardeners specific to the rats in your area. That above setup can run 100% non-stop shield boosting and not run out of cap and can tank most triple BS spawns. You may have to stagger the beams, I do, I use 2 at same time and another a minute later. ___________________________________________ http://www.eve-tutor.com

it seems, that they do so, but if they are attacking a ship, they do not change to another.

another thing to add, if your not solo, is on the bigger spawns have your partner add some shield maint bots(the rep drones)
sure it cuts down your mining rate a little, but slower mining > no mining, right?

Guritas setup..
Hi 3 x Modulated Strip Miner II
Med 2 x Dread Guritas Ballistic Deflection Shield 1 x Gistii A-Type Small Shield Booster (Might be able to fit a cap recharger also)
Lows 2 x Mining Upgrade
You should be able to keep the lasers going while having that tank. Should be able to tank spawns up to like 1.4m at least
