==Summary==
== Summary ==
Of the mining barges, the Covetor has the greatest yield whilst having the smallest ore hold and the least tank, making it unsuitable/impractical for solo mining but shine in boosted/protected fleet mining.
Of the [[Mining Barges|mining barges]], the '''Covetor''' has the greatest yield whilst having the smallest mining hold and the least tank, making it unsuitable/impractical for solo mining but by far the best in boosted/protected fleet mining.

* Suicide ganking is a popular play-style and miners are prime targets; cf. [http://greedygoblin.blogspot.com/p/why-was-i-ganked.html Why Was I Ganked?] and [http://gdurl.com/jDkc Suicide Ganking 101 slides]
* Suicide ganking is a popular play-style and miners are prime targets; cf. [https://greedygoblin.blogspot.com/p/why-was-i-ganked.html Why Was I Ganked?].
** Covetors are a ganker's target of choice due to its inadequate tank and advertises, "I have ''no'' tank, only yield"

** Fit enough tank (and train tanking skills) to survive the ganker's DPS long enough for CONCORD to destroy the ganker; as of Rubicon 1.2, this means surviving a Catalyst's 728.2 DPS for 20 seconds--14,564 Void damage--in a 0.6 system

* It is impolite (and diminishes yield) to mine a rock someone else is already mining: when the rock runs out of ore, the first laser to cycle will get the last ore but the other lasers will continue to cycle (up to 3 minutes) and get nothing

* Due to how vulnerable and cumbersome the mining barges are, it is ill-advised to travel between stargates in lowsec in one, as they make for very juicy targets. Instead, a good idea is to transport your Covetor packaged in a hauler, which raises less (albeit still some) suspicion.
** A [[Badger]], even at base skills, has a capacity of 3,900{{m3}}, allowing it to carry a packaged mining frigate, barge, and even an exhumer, and still have enough cargo space for its modules, can perform the cloak trick, and when designed well, can align in under 6 seconds. Beware however, that when packaging a ship, all its [[rigs]] are destroyed, so either use cheap Tech I rigs or design your ship around not using them.
