Hulks with rorqual bunuss are mining arkonor because they can tank the gas cloud damage.
This bypasses the Skiff's design, why bother using skiff?
Skiff requirs different skill set which is now obsolete.

My idea is to balance the gas cloud damage so that it can kill hulks.

I expect lots of neutral alt carebear trolling in here

sounds like you mean Mercx.

If you look at the Skiff, it's specifically designed to lessen the chance of the clouds forming, and it also gets some other mining bonuses towards Mercx.

edit -- durrr misread the OP ...


It's been a long time since I've mined it, but IIRC you could pull in more per hour with the Skiff...

One of the bitter points of a good bittervet is the realisation that all those SP don't really do much, and that the newbie is having much more fun with what little he has. - Tippia

Skiffs used to be worthless, now we need them to mine Mercx. Ark should never form gas clouds, it makes no sense.

mercoxit should be a good ore like it used to be. 7 Years ago mining merco was something you brag about vs high sec miners. These days its not really that special anymore.

If relativity equals time plus momentum, what equals relativity, if the momentum is minus to the time?

Let's see first you completely use the wrong ore type. Then you act like clouds are a thing. Then you do a Cool and try to preemptively mock people for calling out your dumb idea.

If you're mining Mercoxit and getting hit by the cloud you are bad at mining and should stop.

This is likely going to change soon once all the Morphite in the ecomony starts drying up now that the drone poop is all gone.
