That miner did an awesome job ![]()
Try WO4 on your mining laser as well.
I have been getting under 10 mins of late with the twin lvl 3 tractors and lvl three laser on my krayt.
But kinda don't see what exactly your missing if ya don't tell me ![]()

Well if you're set up as a pure miner having the heavier guns helps when the bad guys turn up and start shooting at you - much like it's better to have cert8 guns than cert1 guns in a normal dogfight.
I found with 1 Mk3 ML and a level3 weapons overcharge running it takes 2 shots to spawn a chunk, and 2 shots to split the chunk.

I just had a customer upgrade as you did and he couldn't stop thanking me for my Mark III's. Not only were the chunks coming off much faster, but he was making minced meatof Tier 3 ships.
You may want to check your weapon's grouping. Maybe your lasers are notfiring in the correct order, or not at all.

That's my experience, as well. I'm using a Belbullab-22 for mining now, with a Crafted Class 3 Mining Laser and a Tractor beam. I run WO3, and the chunks break off like butter, then I just tractor them in.
