Hi all,
I've been playing this game coming up on a year now and I have continually had this issue plague me. I read up on fits for my ships, lets say a Mackinaw, and the lists of Fits from these very forums wont work. I run out of capacitor or power. I'm not understanding why. Currently I have level 1 stuff because the level 2's wont work. I have the skills trained to run them, but once I add them to the slots, they gray out and tell me I need more power or capacitor. Currently my rigging slots are empty and I'm sure that is a part of the problem, however, to make life and this game easier I thought I would come here and ask for direction.
What exactly do I need training in to get these fits to work and have sufficient power. This game is about formulas, can I get a few from you all?

You would really need to link a specific ship, and fit, for anyone to help.
That said: Many ships are tight, unless you have an implant or rig fitted to compensate. There are 2 generic fitting skills in your engineering category that should be trained to V CPU Management Power Grid management There are also skills that specifically target the power grid or CPU requirements of certain modules. Those are more often found in weaponry skilling. Mining Upgrades is a skill that helps with CPU for mining applications. |

Thanks for your input, here is what I have:
1-5 improved implants.
The ship a Mackinaw has the following:
2x Modulated strip miner II's 3x Mining laser II Upgrades 1x Survey Scanner II 1x 1MN Microwarpdrive I
My CPU Management and Power Grid Management are level 5's.
I know I'm missing something here or simply just not understanding how to properly fit a ship. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated, thanks. Live Pure, Speak the Truth, Right Wrongs, Be Fair and Be Just... This is not just God's will, this is-áyour obligation to-áall-áHumanity. |

I'd get rid of the MWD. It's not going to help alot and will chew up powergrid. When you warp to a belt, bookmark 1or 2 asteroids. You can then warp out and back to your BMs. This will negate the need for a mwd.
Also what level do you have mining upgrades trained to as this skill will reduce the cpu penalty the 3 upgrades cost you.
My indy alt never uses a prop mod in his mackinaw. If he goes to an ice belt, I BM a chunk of ice, warp out, then warp to the ice.
I'd replace the mwd with an asteroid analyzer. This will save you some time as you will know how much of an ore or ice is left in any roid after you've been hitting it with your strips. When it's close to depleted, you can figure the % of your next cycle which will be required to deplete it, and shut dff your strips early. This will also allow you to sometimes get the last remaining bit of ore if another miner is mining that same roid and isn't paying attention to his analyzer, or doesn't have one. |

My mining Upgrade is lvl 4, Jury rigging is lvl 4 as well.
I will lose the MWD, please more info. Live Pure, Speak the Truth, Right Wrongs, Be Fair and Be Just... This is not just God's will, this is-áyour obligation to-áall-áHumanity. |

Modulated Strip Miner II Modulated Strip Miner II

This is how you fit mack for max yield. Cap rechargers and SMC rigs are there so you could stop lasers mid-cycle when there is no enough ore for full cycle and start them right away on new rock.
Of course this is paper thin, 10k ehp but if you want tank use skiff.
If you have CPU and PG skills at V, MU IV and Jury Rigging IV it should fit without problems (EveHQ shows 319 CPU and 31 PG is needed). I am not my skills but... http://eveboard.com/pilot/Schmata_Bastanold |

nice joking, flying this way only use barges, humers should be "properly" tank fitted |

What part of "max yield" didn't you understand? Did you even see what fit OP presented?

I've been using he fit, on the same token it hinders movement between destroyed Sasha ships and takes a substantial amount of time to collect cargo from the left over containers.
Is there an optional fit that will assist in more speed? Live Pure, Speak the Truth, Right Wrongs, Be Fair and Be Just... This is not just God's will, this is-áyour obligation to-áall-áHumanity. |

dont worry about the rats, its frigates the income from them is tiiiiiiiny. personally i just set them all blue and let some young noob gather it up
but a mobile tractor unit and some salvage drones will solve that for you |

Because everybody mines in 0.5 mission hubs with local maxed out...
As for OP's question, if you cannot use fit I posted you have something seriously frakked up with your fitting skills. Get EFT/EveHQ/pyfa and find out what skill you are missing. Fitting mining barge/exhumer is really not brain surgery, after lazors, upgrades and surface scanner there is little you really need and can put there. MWD is really sh!tty choice for med slot and chasing after hisec belt rats' wrecks? C'mon, have some dignity :) I am not my skills but... http://eveboard.com/pilot/Schmata_Bastanold |

My reason for salvaging the NPC Sasha ships was based on items received for my BPO's. I guess it's better to buy them? Live Pure, Speak the Truth, Right Wrongs, Be Fair and Be Just... This is not just God's will, this is-áyour obligation to-áall-áHumanity. |

yes. the time it takes to salvage them in your barge is just to much for what tiiiiny amount you get out of it.
edit: to clarify sure if you can do it without really spending time doing it, say the rat dies next to you. but never go out of yoru way to get them |

If you really want the salvage, stick a Mobile Tractor Unit in your cargo hold and have one salvage drone. Then you can get the loot and salvage with minimal extra effort. But don't fly your slow-ass barge all over the belt chasing a couple hundred ISK worth of stuff. |

Core skills are HUGE honestly in your first year you should make certain you have perfect core skills and if you mission or PVP have adv. weapon upgrades 4-5. it opens up so much fitting potential and ability and makes life easier Is it bad if your friend says "that was a Metaphor" and you say "Meta 4? Get Tech II or faction" ?I love the sound of silent explosions in Space.-á |

The problem with the 1st year is you simply do not know the "basic core skills" to have as well as the nuances of this game. It leads to a tremendous loss of time and adequate skill training.
I originally marveled in a separate forum string when people would say they could have a ship up and ready for fighting in 4 to 6 weeks, no problem. Of course a player with 4-5-6 years experience can do that, they know the in's and out's of the game. They've forgotten what it's like to have to figure these thing out as a beginner.

After 20 years, I guess there's a page for everything isn't there?
Bet there's not a page on how to prevent noobs from being bored out of their minds with these lengthy training times, lol.
