Hi: 5x Miner II
Med: Sm or Med Sheld booster, cap recharger, 100mn AB
Low: AS many CPUs as you need (probably 4-5 non named if you got avg skills) Relays or expanders if you got room
In 0.6+, 2 or 3 hammerheads (ogers if you got heavy drones) + as many mining drones as you can command

hmm cargo is a right git on a 5 miner 2'd thorax. Best get electronics up to 5 so you only have to use 2 slots for cpu's...If you arent expecting player trouble then simply fit a shield booster, anything beyond that is a bonus.
Heavy drones = top banana

Thorax is a great mining cruiser. Get your drone and mining skills trained. Use can mine some serious roid with a few harvesters and some defender drones out for npc's.
Only problem is the cargo room - too small to handle a full load from both the lasers and drones -= so turn like 3 on, wait 5 seconds turn on the other 2 and get ready to click and drag like a demon.

Hi:4x Miner II + 1x Cu Vapor
Med:1x 10MN MWD + 1x Sensor Booster + 1x Small Shield Booster
Lo:3x Co-Processor I + 2x Cargo Expanders (18%+)
Drones: 8x Mixed bag of Heavy Combat Drones
With this setup I activate 4x Miner II's then wait 30 secs and activate the remaining beam then I drag rocks to can every 30 secs.
I doubt you would want to use 5x Miner II's due to their CPU usage and the fact that you will want to use cargo expanders due to the limited size of the Thorax cargo bay. |

If you have the extra power, a 100MN AB would be better than a 10MN MWD. The reason being that while it may seem like the AB uses a lot more cap, the MWD reduces your cap by 25%, making the overall cap usage pretty much the same. Not to mention you still have all your shields.

Trakk, assuming you are running 5 miner 2's, 8 heavy drones for combat (i.e. no mining drones), and using mining-to-a-can tactics, you should be pulling down:
Miner 2 yield: 93.75
Scordite Vol: 0.15
93.75 / 0.15 = 625 units of scordite per laser per minute
Total Scord per Hour: 60 x 625 x 5 = 187,500
187,500 x Unit Ore Value (6.9) = 1,293,750
Hopefully that helps just show you should be potentially earning that much

miner 2 yield 93.75 ?
please explain to me how you came up with that.
miner 2 - 60 yield and 5 ranks in mining = 76.58 by my caclulations. add in astro geology 4 and that's 93.08, astrogeology 5 makes it 97.73. am i wrong?
granted i only have mining 2 and no astrogeology

5x miner II's
1x10mn MWD
1xco processor I
rest of low slots fill with expander I's or loot versions.
For def u can swap your mining drones with heavies. Admittidely if u have _ber mining skills your hold wont be big enough however if u got standard 4/4/4 one's like me then itll do.

The lower mining yield is because of mining high ores, If u would mine veld or sord the yield is almost the maximum u can mine; as u move to more valuable ores the yield is lowered, since its not a high end mining laser you are using.

It is fairly easy to explain once you know how it works.
M = Mining
A = Astrogeology
B = Base
The formula is (B * M) * A
Since it is % it will look likse this if both skills are at level V and you are using a Miner II
(60 * 1,25) * 1,25 = 93,75
Enjoy

But for the mill/hour thing, you're putting that all in a huge container and then picking it up with an indy right? Or are you taking it back when you're full each time?
