Gas in W-space: Difference between revisions

From EVE University Wiki
Added math from "Dr. Agropoly" done our own forums (Lead Farmers) comparing Yield in venture and normal ships.

The new Venture class mining frigate works very well for gas mining. It only has 2 high slots for harvester's but has a 100% bonus to the amount harvested and a 5% bonus to cycle time per mining frigate skill level. At maximum skills the yield is the same as a battlecruiser. The ore hold is also 5,000m3 ore hold is also capable of holding harvested gas.
The new Venture class mining frigate works very well for gas harvesting. It only has 2 high slots for harvester's but has a 100% bonus to the amount harvested and a 5% bonus to cycle time per mining frigate skill level. At Mining Frigate 4 with 2 tech2 gas harvesters the yield is the same as a battlecruiser. The ore hold is also 5,000m3 ore hold is also capable of holding harvested gas.
 
Comparing Yield in Venture with unbonused ships:
 
Yield per T2 gas harvester at base          = 20 m^3
Yield per T2 gas harvester in Venture = 20*2 = 40 m^3
 
Cycle time without bonus = 40 seconds
Cycle time with Venture bonus and Mining Frigate skill at 4 = 40*0.80 (s) = 32 seconds
Cycle time with Venture bonus and Mining Frigate skill at 5 = 40*0.75 (s) = 30 seconds
 
Yield :
Unbonused ship with 5 T2 harvesters = 20*5/40  = 2.5 m^3/s
Venture with 2 T2 harvesters        = 20*2*2/32 = 2.5 m^3/s
Vulture with 2 T2 harvesters        = 20*2*2/30 = 2.67 m^3/s
