Yeah maybe, but the Armour plates and the rest can be sold for some reasonable isk.
Oh, wait, you donāt have METENOX automated mining drills in highsec?
Thats really a pitty. Blackflag would sure love to dominate the mining resources just as they dominate the POCOs. Maybe we should talk to CCP about that, I mean, if blackflag takes all the mining content, then it canāt be helped, and miners face the choice of looking for a new hobby or to go to null, which is just what CCP wants them to do anyways.

That just might do the game some good.
As one wise person saidā¦āGamers will optimize the fun out of everything.ā
10 hours for tier 3 mining respawn is too long because it effectively skips an entire timezone of players. Recommend reducing the time to 4-5 hours.
Find a citadel with a reprocessor, compress. Before than, compression modules in a POS, though back then they were corp/alliance locked, so if anything the current system means fewer targets, and one corporation citadel can service the public and compression is a 0 isk service.
Oh thatās not the issue. A decade ago, Hulks used extra large canisters to hold their ore. They required skills in anchoring to use and you needed a password to access them. Once those were removed, Hulks began using alts to pilot Ore Haulers. Now they use an Orca and compression.
The trend is that Hulk pilots have always done anything they can to limit the number of trips to the station. That was the one and only point I was trying to make and I really thought it was a very simple one.
My only point was that without shipboard compression, Hulk pilots would make Orca alts. I know I would. Limits the number of trips back to the station. More profit. ISK is good.

the respawn timer are for limiting the amount of ores you can actually mine. i mean like m3/day. its intentional. and yes it sucksā¦
if you have the power and workforce for 2x T2 Mining Anoms - do it. T3 sounds only good for those who have the possibility to use like 3 or 4 T3 across their systems.
I still jet can and scoop with a kyros when Iām chilling in lowesec ice, so nice to just keep the beams running hot. I donāt even bother with compress because at the most besides another miner no one has 1,000m3 to spare in a cargo hold to swipe it.
Good gamers optimize the fun into the game.
Or add ideas that increase fun.
Sadly, not always.
