Why don't you get yourself a Mack then? If cargo is all what you're upset about, then go for it. You won't notice the smaller yield if you use it for solo mining. You easily compensate for that by not needing an additional hauler.

If you use 2 or more accounts why not simply store the crystals in the hauler so he can drop them once needed on your hulk?

I'll happily take the hulk of your hands so you can upgrade.

And in other breaking news the hulk is no longer the best mining ship for yield, AFK-iness, and tank. It now has to contend with being the best at only one or two things like most other ships in the game. Here's hoping that the hulk can survive its brush with mortality!

contract me all your items and isk you ******* jackass. read the ******* patch notes.

hulk/covetor - fleet (kings of yield)
mack/retriver - solo (kings of ore bay)
skiff/procurer - kings of tank

Tedium and difficulty are not the same thing, if you don't realize this then STFU about game design.

Not only that but to get the old Cargo Hulks big capacity you lose the MLU's. The Mackinaw can fit up to 3 giving it about the same yield as the Hulk with more capacity then it could ever fit.

Have you ever considered jetcan mining? It's very useful. Otherwise, Mackinaw. Slightly less yield, ton more cargo.

I still, for now, prefer hulks so it would be nice to get another docked up. They look pretty spinning in bay, and givr you good collateral in the dice games I frequent after a hard days mining.

Well lets be honest, you dont seem to be complaining so you'd want market value. When I say "happily take it off your hands" to someone who has tearz that should be interpreted as "at a sweetheart deal you probably wouldnt like, but will get you to STFU" Big smile

with 2 MLU II and T2 crystals in a hulk with perfect skills and no booster, it mines 1,547 m^3 per strip miner for a total of 4,641 m^3 per cycle

3 MLU II and T2 crystals in a mackinaw with perfect skills and no booster, makes it mine 2,008 m^3 per strip miner for a total of 4,016 m^3 per cycle

TL;DR
the hulk is still 15% better than the mack in yield even with the third MLU II

Never said a Mackinaw mines faster then a yield Hulk.

considering the hulk's ore bay alone is bigger than it's cargo capacity pre patch and op is complaining about losing cargo space...

op confirmed for fail fitting and not buying a mackinaw because :stupid:

The new Mackinaw mines more than the old Hulk fitted to max cargohold, please read before angry posting.

Miners these changes are for best.

yep though i was responding to the flawed notion that the Mackinaw has "about the same yield" as the Hulk; 15% is not "about the same"

by that logic why not get a retriever? its got "about the same yield" and "about the same ore bay"
or why ever get an implant? its "about the same as not having one"
