Added a tactic for safely transporting your mining ship around. Will apply to the pages of other barges and exhumers as well. |

* Due to how vulnerable and cumbersome the exhumers 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 Hulk packaged in a hauler, which raises less (albeit still some) suspicion. | |||
** A [[Badger]], even at base skills, has a capacity of 3900m3, 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. | |||

The {{sh|Hulk}}, like its T1 cousin the {{sh|Covetor}}, has the fastest align-time of the Exhumers. With inertial stabilizers and decent skills, it can enter warp in under 5 seconds. With an attentive pilot, the Hulk can realistically use a travel fit to travel in [[System_security#Low_security|low sec]] space using the [[Cloak Trick]], and with top skills, skill implants and a proper travel fitting, it can even use the Cloak Trick using only an Afterburner instead of a Microwarp Drive, which allows it to enter warp even faster than with a MWD by about 2 seconds. [[Overheating]] the Afterburner makes high skills and implants less necessary -- just be sure to bring plenty of [[Overheating#Nanite_Repair_Paste|nanite repair paste]] especially if you are travelling far from stations with repair services. | The {{sh|Hulk}}, like its T1 cousin the {{sh|Covetor}}, has the fastest align-time of the Exhumers.
