I curently fly a retreiver with 2 stip miners on it. I want to mine more in 0.7-0.8 space so i need some drones to kill the rats instead of running away. Will light scout drones like warrior 1 be enough or do i need medium scout drones ?
I have room for 5 warrior 1 drones on the ship (when i get the skill) but wondering if they're strong enough to kill 0.7-0.8 rats without losing a few now and then.

Would hornets be better than warriors ? Different type of damage but more shield.

check eveinfo.com and see info for the enemies to come across and then pick the right drones (for example sanshas are weak against EM)

I use 5 hobgoblins on mine and after a few days I've been considering trading 2 of them in on mining bots. 3 will kill an npc frigate quickly and honestly, if I'm attacked by a PC, I'm going to warp or get scrambled and die.

I have droning 3. My retriever has 3 random small and medium drones totaling 25m3 (I think a med warrior, med hobgoblin and small vespa ^^ ) in its drone bay. Those 3 easily kill any rat spawn in the 0.6 system I mine in. Yes I know its not optimal, but I didnt want to fly a 5 jump round trip and so I used what I had previously looted from missioning.
I think I could go lower, 3 light drones and 2 mining drones, but mining drones represent such a miniscule yield to me (since I have very minimal droning skills) that I have not bothered so far.

I would start with 5 medium drones doing the damage type the rats a weak to at fisrt and a shield extener and see how you do. Then 5 small T2 drones and 5 miner drones is what I would use.

more for laughs than serious mining, launch 4 heavy drones in the belt you want to mine. come back in your barge w/ one heavy in the bay, and cycle the other drones through until you have all 5 controlled. used to mine in an .03, before mining upgrade modules. so i ran sensor booster , 200mm plate and small repper. could lock to 40km or so; rats never got close. only got attacked once, by a frig. he was 1/2 armor before all the drones even got on him. very rewarding 'wtf' in local from that...
