Fits for the ORE Epic Arc

Keep in mind these fits below are what I use. They're by no means the very best or the only way to archive a decent time.

Important: There is no combat involved ! Despite being only 3 missions, this Epic Arc features on average 28 total jumps around Jita. Dont be in FW and/or have below -5 standings with Caldari. Also ship choices are forced to Venture & Pioneer, same with some modules.

Prepwork

• Obtain 4000m³ of Veldspar Isotope.
  • Careful there are 2 types of that Isotope, do not get this one !
  • Easiest way is to run the Arc on an alt with the default Pioneer1 and mine all 4 rocks in second mission. With an 8000m³ ore hold you should get enough to finish the mission and a neat 4000m³ stack for your speedrun.

• Have good shield skills.

Prestage Ships

• Venture & both Pioneer
  • Kisogo 7 - AIR Laboratories.

Workflow Notes

• The Missing Pilot
  • In the Venture, keep moving around from closest to closest rock & mine them (1 + 1/4 cycle should be enough for the Veldspar ones).

• Pioneering Spirit
  • If you do have 4000m³ of the required Isotope, put into ore hold of Pioneer2.
    • After taking gate burn straight to Odyssey, deposit, head home.
  • If you do not have 4000m³ of the required Isotope, grab Pioneer1.
    • After taking gate, open Scan Results Window by rightclick on Mining Surveyor (in HUD), press Mining Surveyor, sort window by Name ascending. The 4 top ones are what you want.
    • Mine them all until ore hold is full (= 8000m³). Deposit 4000m³ then head home. You now have a stack for next time.

• Shattered Catalyst
  • Grab Pioneer2.
  • After taking gate, burn straight for the Interstellar Gravimetric Transmitter, ignore the single mine that is going to explode. Shields will go down to 20%.
  • Lock hacking can as soon as the dialogue window of Director Charlotte Becke pops up.
  • Grab content, head home.

• Done.
