Your numbers are terribly inaccurate

Time to destruction
Destroyer will destroy your Hulk in less than 4 minutes maybe 3 Minutes

DPS
4.Destroyer cat 1000+dps or Damage per second!
5.Battlecruiser Talos 5000+dps or Damage per second!

I suspect you meant Damage per Volley, not per second.

Can someone tell me how to fit a Catalyst for 1k+ dps plox?

Thats a better ratter than a battleship due to such a small sig, and on par with my carriers DPS output.

As I have never Ganked or been Ganked, please could Gankers/PVPers post their optimum Kill rate/ stats/DPS and fits to validate claims, I have only used estimates on DPS/time and EHP. All stats that I have used are only ESTIMATES!!!

DPS is completely irrelevant. As soon as a ganker shoots his guns, he'll be jammed, neuted, webbed and scrammed by concord by the time his second round is loaded and ready to be fired.

So, what to do? Simple, get a ship with the highest Alpha (first-strike) you can fit. No tank, no fancy modules, just alpha increasing mods, guns and ammo. A catalyst usually flies with a full rack of guns with only 1 or 2 rounds of ammo loaded, mids usually empty save a sensor booster and lows are all gyrostabilizers and tracking enhancers. Hell, even the rigs, if fitted, will be to improve damage.

Lock, fire your guns, die in a fire and laugh at the expensive tanked exhumer that just died, costing you almost no money.

As long as the Alpha (first-strike) is enough, even logistic backup won't help you. Yes, increasing your EHP and resists will make for the gankers to need to team up to be able to beat said exhumer.

For 0.0 or low-sec without concord, all the above simply doesn't apply as the ganker doesn't get shot by Concord and will come with a completely different setup.

HUGELY inaccurate...

Most of the time you canGÇÖt warp off because they fit warp scramblers.
CONCORD will NOT get there in time, most of the time.

I just want to point out some obvious circumstances for you that Gankers know but those miners that think they can still mine in a barge donGÇÖt.
1.Ganker collateral loss est. 1 mill loss at cost for destroyer not including mods - probably 4 mill for a max fitted catalyst.
2.Miner collateral loss est. 250 mill at cost for hulk not including mods, loss of ore - probably 300 + mods + ore + pod (because so many people are still AFK or not paying attention )
3.Miner collateral loss est. 150mil at cost for tier 3 battleship not including mods, loss of ore

DPS

3.Destroyer cat 1000 per volley - max fitted catalyst with great skills and great mods = ~650 dps on average
4.Battlecruiser Talos 5000 per volley - Talos average = ~1500 dps

Tank
1.Hulk EHP 20,000+ varies on skills and fits eg ..heavy armour plates and extended cargp holds will slow you down also warping, even if your aligned correctly. - Fitting a Hulk with tank midslots and maybe a rig or 2 gets nearer to 25,000 - skills make up a lot of this figure. Train fitting and EHP skills up :) Max skills and great mods can put a Hulk beyond any solo ganker ship (excess of 33,000 EHP) but this isn't easily achievable.

Time to destruction
Destroyer will destroy your Hulk in less than 4 minutes maybe 3 Minutes - CONCORD response time in a 0.5 security system is around 20 seconds, so that's how long they have. Not any minutes at all.
Battlecruiser trier 3 will destroy your Hulk in less than 2 minutes
2.GÇ£Logi supportGÇ¥ Gank logi first 1 minute;
3.Gank Hulk second as above 2-4 minutes

Note any carebear that runs missions should realize you canGÇÖt tank this much DPS even if youGÇÖre NOT afk.
Other factors
Most of the time you canGÇÖt warp off because they fit warp scramblers. - which is why you should be passive aligned at all times, and active aligned if you smell a gank on DSCAN for instan warp out.
CONCORD will NOT get there in time, most of the time. - tank fitted Hulks can almost always last long enough against solo efforts for CONCORD to show up and violence them to death for you. Multiple pilot Gank squads you aren't going to beat anyway, so it doesn't matter.
They know where to find you - make them work for it. Sitting in a belt AFK 2 jumps from Jita is asking for a podding.
You donGÇÖt know they are coming! previous Ganker characters can sometimes be irrelevant and they create new characters each time, you havenGÇÖt been war decGÇÖd so the likely hood of you seeing them in local is small. - DSCAN! look out for Catalysts, Taloses, Tornados and SCAN PROBES - set up your overview with a scanning tab showing ships and probes for the DSCAN 'use current overview settings' option and spam that mutha.

Suggestions
DonGÇÖt Mine! - in easily predictable places such as where you got ganked before, anywhere AFK, at the warp in point in a belt, where the map shows you there's been lots of ship kills lately etc...
Gank them before they Gank you GÇ£unlikelyGÇ¥ - ECM boats can do a very good job of this - by 'ganking' their gank and locking them down helpless till the cops show up.
Form a PVP defence squad to shield the miner, but you need a few PVPers as the Ganker will bring more friends the larger your squad is. - might get some pretty entertaining fights out of this. This is a good thing.
Mine in a battleship, not practical because of the small cargo hold but it is mining, or use orca support or giant containers - Orcas make very attractive gank targets that get the attention of multiple member roaming gank squads. Be careful with them.
Mine in missions - yep
Mine in gravimetric sites - yep
Ninja Mine - use AFK miners or suspected botters as a shield / more attractive target.
Mine into a giant container with a disposable mining ship like an Osprey. - takes far too long to get anywhere. Use a Covetor, or even a Retriever if you're short on money or skills for proper mining ships
Mine in a T1 Mining barge with insurance but expect to get Ganked. - yep. The market manipulation of technetium and Hulk prices means they're not really economically viable for risky mining ops in belts.

Facts
These arenGÇÖt new facts, donGÇÖt fool yourself.
This is a war that miners cannot win as most characters mine alone in Hi sec, but you might not get seen for a while, thereGÇÖs always a chance.
This isnGÇÖt your fault even a Ganker couldnGÇÖt save a Hulk against another Ganker.

Failure to assume responsibility for ones own personal safety is a large part of the problem. 'Entitlement' players who fail to grasp that ganking is an integral part of EvE whine the loudest and give the rest of the industrialists a bad name.

Ok no disrespect, but there are more kills on hulks than hulks that are saved by Concorde, and a single hulk might just get away some times, but chances are low, and the only time that IGÇÖve personally seen and instant warp is while undocking from a station whilst your moving, not from a stand still.
The tank I posted was crap not good enough to with stand an attack and I have made no claims that it could, armour tank would be the worst fit, but some carebears claim to have 30,000 EHP, I canGÇÖt see how this is possible on a well tanked/ resistant tank and only a fool would just fit shield extenders and not hardeners.
Some corporations run mining ops, and itGÇÖs not always easy to get your squad out in time, not everyone mines alone, if it was possible then IGÇÖm sure the carebear players would be grateful if you could provide a fleet loot history with amounts minded in Hi-sec GÇ£ screen shot will do with characters names photo shopped out GÇ£ and details of a concorded Ganker during said operation.
Ultimately most miners canGÇÖt successfully survive a gank and havenGÇÖt had the experience of null sec and fleet warfare; they are just high sec miners, again I do NOT GANK so the whole Dps thing is irrelevant is fine, but numbers prove Hi sec miners canGÇÖt survive as more are killed than not.
For those Miners who want to prove how GOD like their abilities are to survive a Gank, single miner or mining op with two or more miners and evidence that they achieved this please post screenshots with characters names and the corporation that they mine for removed.
The mining community would be grateful for your expert wisdom.

This is why we call it griefing.

The mechanics in EVE are not balance designed. All mechanics in EVE favor dps to survivability.

They want us to lose ships. Get it?

Since that's what drives the economy, sound just fine.

Always MOAR DAKKA

1) CONCORD is not there to save you. It's there to punish your attackers.

2) 30k EHP is easy on a Hulk [Fit at the bottom]

3) A Hulk can be tanked to survive any economical gank (ganks that have a chance of turning a profit). Just have a Rokh repping it.

4) We have tried to provide wisdom, but as wisdom takes effort to impliment, we have been rebuffed. Angrily and Rudely by the mining community.

Comments like this really show how out of touch some people are from the overall concept of mining. It's really simple... Everything I refer to below is all high-sec.

I'm maxed on most skills needed to do quite a few tasks in EVE. Let's take level IV missions. Single char in a Marauder with a Noctis following. 50M+ ISK per hour maybe more, absolutely risk free. The Noctis gets it all, salvage and all loot. Bring a Tengu along too which just melts frigs and cruisers then take that to about 80-90M ISK per hour, risk free (again also clearing the site of all salvage and loot). Easy and not much thinking.

Now let's take trading - hit and miss but good days can make more than that if you find a good deal. With maxed trading skills you can buy and sell regionally and use courier missions to ferry it around. Station trading and trading on the spread, not bad if you work at it. But, can make billions for those who are very good at it. Little to no risk but hauling stuff in Freighters can push the risk upside somewhat but manageable if your careful. Requires more skill, good planning and some good market sense and intuition.

Now we come to mining. Let's assume top skills (which I have) and I don't bother with billion ISK implants. Two hulks + Orca support. Using proper fit, T2 crystals, maxed mining leadership skills for Orca pilot, mining gang modules. That nets about 50-60M ISK per hour maybe more (give or take - ore prices in high sec move about a bit). Risk, well it's high right now .

Now here is the issue. Take that fit you suggested and it would probably just take two to kill the hulk instead of one. BUT it would sooo gimp the Hulk's earning capacity that you may as well go do something else because just about everything else would be more profitable.

Thus... suggesting a setup like that is analogous to saying, "don't bother mining" - but I guess you didn't think of that .

Being able to earn 80-90mil an hour with no risk is example of how much the stealth buffs of high sec over the last 3 years have been over played.

Mining, in a game like EvE, is an Option that Players can CHOOSE if its reward is sufficient to match the effort required. Since the reward recently almost doubled, why should it be a problem if the effort required increases a little? This doesn't apply to miners who mine because that is their preferred activity, for those people, the reward shouldn't matter since the activity is their fun.

wtb 5000 DPS talos

I do get your point. But my point was that high-sec mining with even the uber mining setup still makes less money than other professions in high sec which are far safer. So gimping the setup just doesn't make commercial sense.

I can understand that newer players who may not have a variety of options if they chose to put a lot of their skills into mining, might feel somewhat jaded about all this. Those of us who've been here since 2005 have the skill points (and usually ISK) to have a wider range of revenue generating options if one revenue stream is made unprofitable for whatever reason (either due to a nerf or player action like what we're seeing now).

It's a sandbox and I can live with it but I can understand the angst some are feeling.
