I'm training deep core mining, and want to know if someone has maximized the ore suckage out of Merc roids with a Thorax setup.
How much damage does the roid do? Is the damage every cycle of each Deep Core Mining laser? Is a medium sheild booster enough?
I can, and will only use the Deep Core Miner I's, not the modulated.
I've been testing some setups out in empire on Veld roids, but I'm not happy with any of them yet. And I need to know what kind of damage I will take in a Thorax when mining Merc, and adjust my setting accordingly...

Edited by: Cinnander on 07/02/2005 17:44:55 The pollution cloud damage will pale in contrast to the damage of the rats you will meet in systems containing Mercoxit, ie [deep] 0.0.
But IIRC it's no more than a couple 100 damage every cycle, IF the cloud spawns at all. It's not much.
BTW Mod DCM II have "easy" skill requirements - just the price is a bit high atm :) (Req's DCM Level II) |

Yes, the prices of the MDCM II are insane, will never pay that much...
I don't plan to mine alone, I will have protection...
Wondering if I can use Deep core miners & NOS' to suck juice from the dude protecting me while I mine to keep the DCM's running...

Is deep mining finally "in"?
I thought training Deep Core Mining was junk time.
 Don't mind me I'm just making suasages! |

DCM has massive rewards if you can find places to mine...

I suggest having them run an energy transporter and a remote armour repairer on you and filling your low slots with armour hardeners corresponding to the damage type this damage cloud phenonemon is, if you know that. You can run the lasers off his cap and reduce the damage you're taking with the hardeners, if that works, so thathe only needs to run the remote armour repairer occasionally and it doesn't drain all his cap. It means he loses two high slots and has to stay next to you but that would work on a caldari ship like the scorpion or the raven - they can use missiles for killing the NPC pirates from a distance.
Could you let me in on where you'll be mining? We could help maximise mining output per unit time by the two of us mining together and we can split the load 60:40 to you or something. I can provide another corpmate or two in battleships and another miner in a thorax. I'm getting a little bored of eve lately, this would be cool if we could ally for a while. I could have my corpmate covering both of us for cap and armour in his scorpion and have both my other corpmate in a raven and your protection guy tackling the NPCs together (all the loot would go to your guy, obviously).
