If it's worth your time, it's worth protecting. – ORE marketing division 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 and self-defense. Advanced shielding and drone control systems make the Skiff the toughest mining ship in the cluster. Exhumers are equipped with electronic subsystems specifically designed to accommodate Strip Mining and Ice Harvesting modules. SHIP BONUSES Mining Barge bonuses (per skill level): 6% bonus to ship shield hitpoints 2% bonus in Strip Miner yield 4% reduction in Ice Harvester duration Exhumers bonuses (per skill level): 4% bonus to all shield resistances 2% bonus in Strip Miner yield 3% reduction in Gas Harvester duration Role Bonus: 50% bonus to drone damage and hitpoints Required Skills Exhumers I41m Spaceship Command IV1d 1h 8m Industry V5d 22h 13m Astrogeology V17d 18h 40m Science IV1d 1h 8m Mining IV1d 1h 8m Mining Barge V23d 16h 53m Astrogeology III13h 20m Science IV1d 1h 8m Mining IV1d 1h 8m Industry V5d 22h 13m Mining Frigate III8h 53m Spaceship Command I8m Training Time what's this? 50d 22h 47m 10s Estimated training time only for the listed skills based on zero implants and without neural remaps.

Summary

The Skiff is the toughest of the Exhumers without any modules, and becomes as tough if not tougher than many battleships when fully fitted and skilled. However, the skiff sacrifices yield and some ore hold capacity to do this. Therefore, the skiff should be used when under the threat of being ganked or when having to operate under heavy NPC fire. When fitted out correctly, it is impossible to make a profit from suicide ganking a skiff, which should deter all but the most determined people from attacking you in high sec.

Tactics

• 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 Skiff 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.
