− | | |
− | As a pilot, new to Eve Online, there is an overwhelming choice of ships and modules to cater for every possibility, and as miner's we have been given a series of ships that give us an edge. This section is going to take a look at the Frigate and Cruiser ships that haven been given a mining roll bonus, as well as the modules that you might want to invest in. It is recommended that before you choose a ship, you read about the [[Mining | basics of mining]] as it gives a good overview as to what asteroids are, and how we deal with them.

− | *In general any ship that has a free turret and high power slot available is capable of becoming a mining ship. Caldari ships typically make good mining ships because of their CPU capacities but each race has a frigate with mining bonuses and typically players will receive one upon completion of the tutorial mission.

− | ===Factors that make a good Mining Ship===
| |
− | | |
− | * Mining modules have quite a large cpu requirement, and a low power requirement so although a ship may have many turrets capable of holding a mining module, the ship might not have the cpu to fit them.
| |
− | | |
− | * Ships that have a mining role bonus are very important, the table below shows the faction frigate ships that gain the following bonus: 5% bonus to cargo capacity and 20% bonus to mining laser yield per skill level and -60% mining laser capacitor use. This make any of the 'mining' frigates a good starting ship as the pilot will receive not only a cargo hold bonus, yield bonus and a permanent reduction in capacitor use.

− | ==Mining In An Industrial==
| |
− | | |
− | So as we have said, you can Mine in absolutely anything with a high power slot and a spare turret. One mistake that many pilots will make is that only high slots are required to fit a mining laser and as an example an Iteron III can in theory fit two mining lasers with a 4875m3 cargo bay. This is of course wrong, only one mining laser can be fitted which comes as quite a surprise to many miners.
| |
− |
| |
− | I don't think there is a miner in the verse who would recommend mining in an industrial, it may have a large cargo bay but filling it with just one mining laser takes an extremely long time and is unprofitable. If you really want to involve an industrial then either [[Mining#Jet_Can_Mining | Jet Can Mining]], [[Mining#Combo_Jet_Can_Mining | Combo Jet Can Mining]] or [[Mining#GSC_Mining | GSC Mining]]
