This plus the certificates Standard Active Shield Tanking & Standard Passive Shield Tanking.

Core skills are always excellent (Capacitor & Fitting especially so in this case).

You'll also need to skill up for the T2 strip miner, where you need Mining Crystals, some of which apparently are quite skill intensive. I don't think that's an actual requirement, but if you want "perfect" Hulk skills they're on the list.

Here's my training path for my alts to get perfect mining. This is a good base. From there you can work more on tanking and drone skills.


Refining V
[ore type] Processing IV. I would suggest all of them. I ended up selling my last mining alts a few years ago but I did move to 0.0 with them so I was glad I trained all the nullsec processing skills to use the Strip 2 miners. Moral of the story, you never know!

Mining V
Exhumers V
Astrogeology V

Those are the big ones that take a while. (theres more, to many to list)

From there you can work on drone and rig skills. After which Cap/Fitting and tank. Dont ignore things like Targeting its nice to be able to have the next set of roids qued up.

Best suggestion is download EVEMon, study all that to which relates to mining and make a plan that works for you.

If you are serious about mining this is your Bible Haladas Mining Guide

Know it, Live it, Love it.
Everything you need to know about mining including implants, Fleet boosting skills and modules, hulks, ORCA, and Roqual are in there.
