Eve Online Guide to Mining Barges Yields, Tanks and Roles. Inc Know You Enemy: How Ganks Work

Ойындар

In this episode we look at the three Tech 1 Mining Barges, The Retriever, Covetor and Procurer and compare their yields tanks and roles so you can decide which is best for you.
We go through what you can do to stay safer whilst mining using the D scan, picking a good location and basic awareness.
In the 'Know Your Enemy' section we examine the mechanics of a ganks and how safe you may or may not be depending on security status of the system and your ship and fit.
Alpha's cannot use barges (way too farmable) so a subscribed Omega account is required.
In game name ThinTrash, say hi! (No ISK required, thanks!)

    Instead of bookmarking asteroids, I tend make a single bookmark about 200km from the asteroids. You can warp from there to any asteroid, and back to the bookmark, for warping around the belt.

    The best tank for a miner: a procurer. That's it. If you look at the raw ehp of one you'll see it has more than twice the ehp of the other barges, fit it with tank and its more cost intensive for the gankers to bring you down. Don't like the procurer? here's the best tank then: d-scan, adding gankers as negative standing and aligning to warp away the moment you see something bad. Alternatively, get some friends to mine with, chat a bit and one that has a miners best lover, the Orca. A Mining Op that has taken into account possible combat and is prepared will definitely be able to scare them away or at the very least disrupt them long enough so they won't manage to kill a single miner. No matter how much you try to tank a retriever or covetor, depending where it is, chances are it will die, you shouldn't rely entirely on DPS to calculate how long it would take the catalyst to die I made a tanky retriever with about 18kehp overall, bit more resists on thermal and kinetic, and was feeling cocky and wanted to test its fit, so I let this one ganker come on purpose, it was a typical T2 catalyst that has about 800-900 dps on a 0.6 system. CONCORD arrives in 15 seconds on that system and according to calculations it would've taken the catalyst to knock me down in about 20 seconds. I survived with 5% hull, one more hit and I would be dead. So, calculations can Help determine an estimate, but it will never be accurate. Turrets have an application damage based on their optimal range that multiplies their alpha damage, so as a target that sits still you'll be easy to approach and easy to land hits on, you might just be unlucky enough to see him deal triple the alpha damage once on you. Even if you move around you're still slow, even more if the ganker decides to bring a web for some reason. If you fly a barge, try tanking it above 18k, yes it will mean less output but you'll save on some cash and the gankers would most likely have to throw one more catalyst just to knock ya down but at least if you go afk you'll have a chance to coming back alive on hull hp. If you fly an exhummer I recommend you do not go afk flying that thing. Yes, mining can be booooring and teeedious if you fly solo and tanking a exhummer is made a bit easier with more high slots, but loosing 300mil worth of ship sounds hella punishing, a barge at least pays for itself faster due to lower cost and it will definitely not attract as many catalysts as a exhummer would. This also applies to ANY barges if you fly bling fits with the ORE miners, by putting those things on you just revealed the worst enemy of a miner: Greed. And for the love of god don't bother with shield boosters, they do nothing for you. The ehp per second you get on a medium shield booster is not worth it, try shoving a hardener instead and overheat it, that will give ya more ehp through the whole fight till CONCORD arrives. Most importantly: insure your ship. yeah it costs to do that, but you get more money back when it blows up, it will one day anyway, never say never, they will get you eventually, this is EVE after all.

    Wow a huge comment! You transcribed the narration for me :) I think the only thing you mention that I didn't cover in the vid are t2 barges and personally I think they are in no way worth the extra isk sunk in them and the risk that represents for relatively small increases in yield and protection. I see them more as the 'Miners Bling' since I guess some don't have much else to spend their ISK on. The other thing to take into account when trying the maths is that dps is not actually applied 'per second' since the weapons cycle, so how many shots/damage you get in a given amount of time will not match a simple dsp x seconds calculation.

    @@daddex9222 Yeah exactly, but despite that the turret mechanics throw any calculations off the window as a pure "minimal prediction". I do agree that exhummers Are indeed bling, which is why I give the emphasis to Never. Afk. On. These. Gotta go to the toilet? Dock. Need a drink? Dock. They can be worth if you treat it with respect but they definitely take their sweet time to pay back. Its still a nice step up for the greedier ones, might as well fly an Exhummer if you gonna fit a retriever with Ore miners and a shield booster right? Hulks are arguably the safest of the bunch purely because they are more commonly seen near Orcas. Ganker comes around? Hide it in the Orca. Simple. But that won't stop gankers from trying their luck if they think the hulk/orca pilot is a multiboxer that got distracted, they WILL come to try and score the kill. Thanks for the reply btw, didn't mention on the first comment but the video was nice and informative in a lot of stuff. Good to see fellow miners taking care of one another.

    I also like to use the Strip Miner I along with the Mining Laser Upgrade II. You get a nice boost from the Upgrade II without worrying about the cristal type. At least if you are like me and just pick any rock available, going from one end of the belt and eating all the rocks till the other end, or be selective about the density of the rocks (densier first, whatever their type)).

    If there is a pesky FOB we would kill it, Myrmidons will do ( we killed one in a 0.5 last month), you have to plan and manage it well or the aggro will escalate a lot, biggest mistake people make is using battleships, it just escalates the fight/response hugely, and you have to keep any related miner response fleet busy elsewhere or they will join in too. Trigs, avoiding them is good, or can take out a combat ship and clear them (good salvage). I may not have mentioned it explicitly in this vid but never stay near the warp in point on a belt even just while ratting.. more time for you to react / think if any kind of unwelcome company joins you xD

    single ganker in catalyst is not always a sure win on a barge (i mean procurer no way, covertor should pop everytime) but retriever can be a little more tanky also. And it happens thats the barge you wanna gank is also in fleet with some shield boost. I mine daily on 0.5, mostly afk with procurer, and when i want intense mining i go orca+boost+covetor, and even then gankers not always win ;D .. Also , dont just stay face to face with an asteroids, its a good idea to orbit like 5K because antimatter is very low range and not supa tracking. Surely can make you survive a gank

    I liked this video overall outside of the high brightness. Your voice is pleasing and you're clear with your words. Your information is well presented and researched. I just started playing again yesterday after a 4+ year break. I've been reading the forums and watching videos to get a grip on what's changed. It seems ganking hasn't really changed. All of my accounts have +22m SP gank alts on them. When I was last playing and ganking I used t2 talos 95% of the time for the big HP ganks (t2 catalyst for the small fries like ret/cov/etc). There were some scenarios where the timing would allow for one more strike by a tornado before being jammed. in those few scenarios the nado would end up outputting a little more overall damage than a talos. So what has changed to put Nados over the top? When I quit there were a couple multiboxers using bombers to gank in highsec. Is that no longer a thing?

If you're new, do mining until your skills are up enough for a rattlesnake and a full t2 build then do missions. I have loot boxes in my home station for everything. Insignias, equipment, salvage and what I call 'other' and they all have billions of ISK in loot. I sell everything off once a month. Billions in ISK from a month of running level 4s + Well over a billion isk in bounties and then another 200-350m isk in mission payouts. Do what makes you happy but keep in mind it takes a couple days for 1m M3 in Veldspar ore and that's less than 300m ISK. That's if you're mining all day every day.

    No, so long as you do not shot before they do it is fine. Some shoot back as soon as another player locks them, this is a mistake and they will get concorded as locking is not 'aggression' as far as the cops are concerned.

    I don't really get it myself, as it is dull and easy. I show stuff in the vid's to demonstrate possibilities, and show /warn players what is possible. This particular method we have only used against guys we have reason to mess with, so that isn't ganking :) I will say that without suicide gankers afk mining would be too easy and that would be good for no one since it would reduce the value of all ore mined. Don't afk mine and you are very unlikely to be a gank victim. xD
