Hello i was wondering how much ore per hour can you mine with a Hulk with perfect skills,with drones,perfect boosted by Rorqual in 00 in 1h ,mining high end ore.Thank you in advance.

Mining the best ore Available, at Jita Prices that produces 55m isk in ore per hour, setup pays itself off after 227 hours of cherrypicking nothing but the best ore, assuming no down time for moving or hauling.

Personally I do not see mining drones as useful tools. While the volume showed is nice, its not a true estimate of how they work.

The (slow) mining drone must fly to the asteroid, orbit it, and return mined ore to your hold. So the farther away you are from the drones, the slower you mine.

anyways a fully boosted + implant rorqual in industrial mode gives like a 98% yield bonus

Protip - park your barge close to a few nice big rocks.

T2 drones with decent support skills are about the equivalent of another t2 strip miner.

Edit - dont use Harvester Drones
I've done some really stupid shit in this game.

actually for the drones you want to park next to a small rock Ark for example. because if you park right next to a large velspar rock they will get hung up in it. and the size of the rock it self will often cause long travel time even if you are next to it

All barges with T1/T2 strips and T1/T2 drones with each of the different ship/boosting yields

Mining drones are very useful and pay for themselves very quickly (about 30 minutes to replace 5) and are well worth using even if you expect to lose them to rats / fleeing attacks. T2 mining drones will travel 600m/second. So a roid 5km away will take 76 seconds to mine. With 47 cycles per hour and 312M3 per cycle (all 5 drones) they will yield 14,664M3/hour or 2,578,224 isk/hour mining scordite, which is equal to 11 cycles of T2 strips non-boosted. Adding a mining drone rig will increase this an additional 10%.

10KM away roids will take 92 seconds or 39 cycles per hour 12,168M3/hour or 2,139,377 isk/hour.

It might not sound like much but if you mine with 4 miners and mine 20 hours a month that's an extra 206,257,920 isk/month (add an extra 20M if you use rigs) or about 2-3 hours of mining.
