== Summary == | == Summary == | ||
The '''Pioneer'''... | The '''Pioneer''' is an upcoming mining [[Destroyer|destroyer]] slated to be released with the Catalyst expansion on 18 November 2025. It serves as a bridge point between the smaller [[Venture]] mining frigate and the larger [[Mining Barge]]s. Like those ships, it receives bonuses for both [[mining]] and [[gas cloud harvesting]]. Like the Venture, the Pioneer is also usable by [[Alpha clones]]. | ||
Compared to the Venture, the Pioneer offers a higher harvesting yield, with a third turret and stronger mining yield bonus. It can also carry a spare flight of drones that the Venture can not. However, the Pioneer lacks the inherent warp core strength bonus of the Venture. | |||
== Skills == | == Skills == | ||
'' | A Pioneer can be used with starting skills on day one. | ||
'''To improve mining yield''' | |||
* {{sk|Mining}}: Improves mining laser yield by 5% per skill level. | |||
* {{sk|Mining Destroyer}}: Improves mining yield by 10% per skill level (hull bonus). | |||
* {{sk|Mining Upgrades}}: Allows use of Mining Laser Upgrade low slot modules, boosting yield. | |||
* {{sk|Mining Drone Operation}}: Allows for use of mining drones to further boost yield (requires [[Omega clone]] status) | |||
'''To improve survivability''' | |||
* {{sk|Evasive Maneuvering}}: Reduces align times. | |||
* {{sk|Spaceship Command}}: Reduces align times. | |||
* {{sk|Shield Management}}: Grants a 5% bonus to shield hit points per skill level. | |||
* {{sk|Shield Upgrades}}: Reduces shield upgrade powergrid needs by 5%, and allows for better shield extenders to be attached. | |||
'''To improve self-defense against [[belt rat]]s''' | |||
* {{sk|Drones|IV}}: To be able to operate four drones, the amount that the Pioneer has bandwidth for. | |||
* {{sk|Light Drone Operation|I}}: Allows use of light combat drones. | |||
'''To harvest gas''' | |||
* {{sk|Gas Cloud Harvesting|III}}: Allows for use of three gas cloud harvesters to maximize the harvest potential of the Pioneer. | |||

Like other ORE mining ships, the Pioneer is not an ideal ship for combat, and any threat more dangerous than belt rats is best avoided rather than confronted. Paying good attention to [[Directional scanner|D-Scan]] and/or local chat can bring notice to potential threats before they catch a Pioneer, particularly in riskier areas of space. | |||
Orbiting an asteroid can help mitigate incoming damage from belt rats, but can also increase the time required to escape if a player threat nears. | |||

A Pioneer will be the reward of an upcoming [[epic arc]] to be released with the Catalyst expansion. | |||
