just bought a hulk pilot on bazzar. I got it very cheap because it only has an average amount of learning skills and the min requirments to fly a hulk. I was wondering what I should que up to train once i get the charecter.
Also I am currently using tinyminer with a retriever and I am running into a slight problem. I am currently mining in high sec with modulated II strips w/ veldspar crystals but often find that after mining for a few hours the veldspar is far away so i have to waste alot of time traveling towards it. On the other hand i see their is always roids in range if I don't filter to one specific roid for using crystals. Should I find a better spot to use stripper II or should i just mine all the roids with striper I. Thanks for the help in advance

Re: newbie getting first hulk
If you want to eliminate traveling time between asteroids use the "Warp from 200km" option. That's the most efficient way to mine. You could also use regular strip lasers and mine everything.

Re: newbie getting first hulk
the thing is did was jsut strip 2 and jsut mine anything as long as ur Mineing when ur out off station ur makeing mone does not matter if its veld or plag still money in the hold i wuld rather have a little less isk in hold per run mining everthing then have a longer time between filling holds to make a bit more per hold becasue ISK over time would be better IE the more times u fill up the better the isk is going to be if it takes u 30mins to fill ur hold with veld. makeing u say 350k more then other ores but in that 30 mns u can fill hold twice with slightly lesser ore makeing that 350k loss on the vled but say u sell for 500k insted off the 850k u get for ore but u have 2 holds filled in the same amount off time becasue no travel time between raoids u gona make a profit off 250k over veld becaue u have mined more in the same time. hope u understand what i mean

strip miner II's with no crystals or the wrong ore is WORSE than T1 strippers so may wanna swap them out if you are mining everything

or u can buy up a shit load off crystals and change them to fresh ones at the start off every mineing mission after the run say 8 hours or there abouts take used crystals off and destro replace with new and go i understnad this may waste a bit off time left on the crystals but i have seen them pop after 8 hours and also seen them last 20+ so its realy random
