The Magnate has the largest cargo capacity of any Tech I frigate. This makes the Magnate a speedy freight courier and distribution mission runner. By fitting the ship with expanded cargohold modules and cargohold optimization rigs, it is possible to build a Magnate that can carry just over 1600 m3 of cargo. Or, by exchanging some of these for warp stabs, to build a low-sec courier that can evade insta-pointing gate camps. | The Magnate has the largest cargo capacity of any Tech I frigate.

The Magnate can be fit for combat probing, by using an Expanded Probe Launcher in place of the standard Core Probe Launcher. However, combat probing requires considerably greater in-game and pilot skill than site probing. Successful combat probers need to be able to locate targets in a single quick scan, or at most two. Pilots that have the Astrometrics skill levels required to do this, and have the experience necessary to use D-Scan intelligence to pinpoint those targets before scanning, are typically already trained into Covert Ops frigates anyway. | |||
