Hello,

I was wondering if the mining foreman mindlink's 50% bonus to gang modules currently working? I'm trying to find out if the mindlink is worth the cost.

Thank you for your time.

Um... ya, they work, and are worth it. At max skill with mindlink: Orca = 55.14% more ore, Rorqual = 73.58% more ore. At max skill without mindlink: Orca = 32.93% more ore, Rorqual = 41.93% more ore.

Keep in mind that the mindlink also gives a 15% yield boost that replaces the Mining Foreman skill's 10% bonus.

Here are my Orca and Rorqual fits:

To save you another post, yes, training Cybernetic to V is currently working, and will in fact together with Mining Director V allow you to fit said implant.

.......... Um. yes. lol. There is very little point giving bonuses without it actually.

In comparison, its like a crystal/ slave set. It only really effective when you have all of them, because the bonus percentage builds off each other.

I dunno as to if they are worth it, do they work, yes, but the current market shows them at 400+ mil...I cannot seem to come to the conclusion myself it they are worth the investment.

depends on the size of the fleet you are boosting :) 2 man fleet probably not, 20 man or 200 man do the math Shocked
