What now codies always say miner should do more to not be ganked and now when they do... You are crying for mama? As said: Leave hisec and grow some hair... 
.... Why... Nell sec ores are worth nothing and low-sec has been a death trap for a decade.
I feel your pain though OP... I saw a VERY similar group(prolly the same guy) in an ice belt the other day with 15 skiffs and Orca and a hauler in perfect formation cruising slowing through and devouring everything....
And i thought.... You know for ALL the times i've been suicide ganked.. those CODE B******* are never around when you need them. |

Their yield is equal, but in fleet mining, there is no travel time for the ships, so the larger hold of the Mackinaw is completely useless, which is why the Skiff is super popular. It's also probably better than the hulk in fleet mining, because of the fact it'll rarely get ganked, so your "effective isk/hour" is better. I think.. I'm not sure how many hours a hulk needs to mine to cover the cost of itself.
Depends what you are minning, but if it's ICE and it's not super-populated you make 18 mil an hour in a MAC.... A hulk is about 20% better, so.... your still looking at 10+ hours of uninterupted ice mining(which would never happen anymore). So you'd need at least 3 Ice belt spawns......
About a day.... if you did nothing else, and jumped systems to chase ice-belts for a hulk to pay for itself. Although anyone farming that hard with a hulk with Code lurking about is out of their minds. |

I'm about as hard-core care beary as it gets. Ive' lost about 3 ships to code in the last 2 months....
However, I do think there needs to be some drastic changes to high-sec...... NPC corp mechanics..... And bot fleets in general.
Yes I lose ships but that's eve. It really is too damn easy for these huge bot/multi box fleets to do what-ever they want.
I know at one point CCP banned about 25% of their user base for botting. I'm curious to know when they decided that it's OK now. |
