==Summary==
== Summary ==
The Retriever is a very popular mining barge, and usually the first mining barge a player will own. It fits 2 strip miners, which mine considerably faster than regular mining lasers. It has the drone bay to support 5 light drones, which are normally used for defence rather than for mining drones, as the barge has no possibility of fitting other weaponry.
Of the [[Mining Barges|mining barges]], the '''Retriever''' has the largest mining hold — Half a jet-can size at 27,500 {{m3}} base — whilst being in the middle for hit points and yield, thus making the Retriever most useful for solo mining by reducing the frequency of trips to unload. Because the Retriever has an ore/mining hold size bonus per level of Mining barge skill the actual size will vary between 28,875{{m3}} and 34,375{{m3}}. Additionally, the Retriever can fit an adequate tank to survive a [http://gdurl.com/jDkc suicide gank]. cf. http://greedygoblin.blogspot.com/p/why-was-i-ganked.html

== Tactics ==
''Further information about additional or recommended skills to pilot Retriever for a specific or it's common role(s) can be written here.''
* [[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?].
** Fit enough [[tank]] 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 25 seconds—18,205 Void damage—in a 0.5 system
** Use and keep launched [[ECM]] drones
*** This lets gankers know that you are expecting them and implies you are tanked for them; this is deterrence
*** This provides a chance to break the ganker's target lock for 20 seconds
*** One Hobgoblin I is sufficient to destroy NPC pirates, leaving room for four ECM drones or three ECM drones and a salvage drone
*** Setting drones to aggressive lets them engage your aggressor without having to target-lock first (see [[Using Drones#Drone behavior settings|Using Drones]])
** Fitting expensive meta modules may compel a duo gank due to their high-value loot chance
** Trade hubs (especially Hek) and ice belt systems are popular hunting grounds for gankers
* Mine aligned to a celestial/station for faster warp-out
** Warping out when a non-mining ship enters your belt/anomaly is prudent
** Other mining ships may be scouts for gankers; it is good to know who your neighbours are and put known gankers on your contact list with terrible standing
* If attacked, overload your tank modules
* Mining in a fleet--even with just two miners--provides boosts with the skills {{Sk|Leadership}} and {{Sk|Mining Foreman}}
* 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 Retriever 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.


==Fitting==
== Notes ==
''No tagged fittings for Retriever.''
Personally I love this ship. I took a few modules from my venture to decrease the time required to go to warp.
