If i have orca with maximum leadership skill and i have a hulk with maximum skill, best gear and implants, how much would i make per hour in isk from the hulk?

somewhere over 20m an hour, depending on what you're mining.

I see, not what i expected. I was thinking 30m per hour woulda been good...

a fully skilled orca with the implant, and a fully skilled hulk with a max yield fit will pull in 5.4 cans per hour, call it 5 for the sake of easy maths.
kern and pyrox are just over 6m per jetcan, so yeah you could possibly pull in 30m/hour if you're cherry picking and making sure you're not wasting cycles.

however if you're just being lazy about it, 20m is still easily doable without putting too much effort in to it. target every rock, and just let your lasers cycle until asteroids go pop.

Excellent! Then i will have isk for my evil plans!

with just 2 miners you would be making more with 1 mackinaw and 1 hulk and the hulk jetcanning and the mack picking it up and hauling.

Using EFT for ship data, and fuzzwork for current ore prices.
Orca + max skills + mining foremen mindlink implant
Hulk + T2 crystals, mining drones II, max yield setup including a drone mining augmenter and 5% mining implant

Mining Kernite (currently at 229.39isk / m3) will yield 3104m3 / minute, or 186,240m3 per hour. This would come to 42,721,593 isk per hour.

Use the mining tab in my sig to find out how much you can mine and make for your setup.

Most of the figures quoted when it comes to mining isk per hour are theoretical maximums, just simply multiplying yield by cycles per hour by ore isk/m3.

These are almost impossible to achieve as unless you're mining the infamous spodumain rocks in the site then you'll be killing rocks and the rate of extraction drops. I did some mining the other week, 4 skiffs 1 orca and a hauler, and stripped 3 belts completely getting bored of "The asteroid is depleted" messages.

point is, its a pretty boring afk 2nd account thing.

mackinaw/Skiff requires a few clicks and a few F1-F2's pushes every 15 min, end of story.
