So I run a lvl 4 q20 agent for kill misisons. I was wondering for isk making purposes are mining missions worth it? I mean can you sit in the best they give you and mine for hours and hours raking in roids that are so large hard to pop them unlike high sec whree your competing against other people?
Mining is more boring, but is it more cost effective?
Any feedback is great thanks..

Mining missions no longer (or didn't last time I bothered) have any useful ore anymore.
Kill missions are the way to go.

I've been doing mining missions, and they do not have any bonus ore.
You either have to mine about 44K m3 mineral, or a bunch of ice, or some gas. Either one, it takes quite a while to do solo in a hulk (about 45 mins) and pays a bit less than 3 mil.
Better do a combat mission. More fun, more bounties, more loot.
If you want to do some mining between combat missions, then get a combat mission with some veldspar in it. Kill all, mine a bit and you should have the best of both worlds.

What they said. Mining missions are a waste of time unless you're grinding up corp standing to get your refining tax to 0.
No bonus 'roids, maybe a few rogue drones to clear out first, which can be done by your light drones on your Hulk anyway. This includes Level IV's.

I would disagree with combat missions being less boring than mining. In both cases you're shooting at mindless database entries with no risk. I'd say they're equally boring.
How anyone finds level 4 combat missions anything other than mind-numbingly boring blows my mind.

Think you're using a pretty broad brush there. Yes most lvl4 combat missions are boring, but a select few are a challenge: AE bonus room, EA 5/5, The Blockade when the 5mil overseer spawns etc.
