Although the Exhumers are classed as T2 versions of each of the mining barges, each ship is specialized for a particular task like mining barges. Exhumers have a 3% bonus to Strip Miner output and a 7.5% bonus to shield resistances for each level of Mining Barge. Between the shield resist bonus and four midslots, all Exhumers can fit a good shield tank. | ||
Exhumers require the skills to fly a Covetor, plus the [[Skills:Spaceship Command#Exhumers|Exhumers]] skill. | Exhumers require the skills to fly a Covetor, plus the [[Skills:Spaceship Command#Exhumers|Exhumers]] skill. | ||
===Skiff=== | |||
''The Skiff is an exhumer with exceptional defensive capabilities.'' | |||
Development | |||
The exhumer is the second generation of mining vessels created by ORE. Exhumers, like their mining barge cousins, were each created to excel at a specific function, the Skiff's being durability. With that in mind, the designers could only make space to fit one mining or ice harvesting module. To mitigate the effect this would have on its mining output, they came up with a unique loading system that allows this one module to work at triple efficiency. | |||
Exhumers are equipped with electronic subsystems specifically designed to accommodate Strip Mining and Ice Harvesting modules. | |||
