Hey all,


Just a question I have been trying to answer for a while now...What exactly do I need to have trained (to level 5) to make the lowest cycle times (before boosts) possible?

Currently trying to help my corp mine ore for some orders they have on the market and my cycle times (with boosts) are down to 89.9 seconds and I really wanted to know if there where specific skills I could train to make it even lower than current so I can bring in more ore per hour as I don't currently run 2 accounts - only this one for mining.


Thank you!

Well my ice cycle time (with boosts) are down to 27.3 seconds and will drop another 5% once a corp mate brings out an implant I ordered from him. So those times don't worry me.


It's more of the ABC ores and such that I have issues with and want to lower...but besides the ship boosts should I be looking at anything else? (Atm my mackinaw does a 89.9 cycle time under boosts, I do have a skiff if it can prove to be better)

The best cycle time I have ever gotten was with a skiff (ice harvester) 3 ice mining mods, 1 ice Ming rig, and max boost rorqual gets about 23.5 seconds. Only thing not to lvl V is exhumer skill.

So nobody happens to know what reduces the cycle time when not mining ice?

If wanted I can post all mining related skills I have right this moment, as long as somebody can give me a rundown of what all of them are :>

To my knowledge there arent any skills that reduce ore cycle times. Only the ship bonuses do that

Ore is about Volume is Ice about Cycle time

Mods and skills for each only affect that one aspect.
