As was mentioned earlier, the industrial changes are going to change the dynamic quite a bit. A MWD noctis can haul cans to a warp in point, and have some quick itty IV's hauling to the POS.

we are also a smaller unit, so we try to keep it as little extras as possible thats why the rorq is out there to haul for the deployed one, noctis would take away a miner.

With the efficiency of the Itty IV (m³/minute hauled round trip), you could easily do it with the same guy. Fly out in the noctis once there is enough ore for a few itty trips, group all the cans, then fly back, pick up the itty IV, and make a few round trips, rinse, repeat. still a LOT less risky than the rorq, and unless you've got a LOT of miners, the rorq will be sitting idle most the time waiting for enough ore to haul.

That's far more work and far more accounts than just using a stupid rorqual or even a freighter. More effort, and you lose the income of 2-5 miners? Great plan~

Waaaaay more effort. It's better just to buy a damn rorqual.

e: Unless you're poor. Then mine for 2 hours and get yourselves a rorqual.

Is there some new mineral that gets you 1.25b an hour that I don't know about?

Friends/alts.

Unless I'm mistaken and this topic is about solo mining or something.
