Frostpacker has many skill extractor weeks that disallow it’s minions from progressing into a ship class that would be costly to Frostpacker until such ships are either self manufactured or straight out purchased.
Frostpacker holds only two characters that are allowed to train over 5.5m sp.
Fair enough. It did make me think though, about all the mining skills my accts/toons have. I don’t hate mining, but if I want to go to sleep, I’ll just go to bed. That being said, I don’t think I’ll sell them off. You just never know in this game…
Oh I am a rookie at this, like with this character I even keep him under 50m and more like 35-40 I start extracting again down to like 25m (currently at 36.5 for the 2nd time)

Besides the way I am seeing the Procure / Skiff pilots is 57 blocks vs 80 blocks per hour difference.
I’ll throw in my two cents. I mine in a orca. Sure you can mine more in an exhumer or barge. But I’m lazy. I drop mining drones, align to station and watch local. That ore hold is massive. With t2 shield bursts and proper fit i can tank trig patrols most ganks all day. I have lost drones due to carelessness, but it hold a bunch of extras too. But if you are the isk/hr kind of person don’t mine in an orca, it is a lazy pilots mining ship.
