Prior to the Odyssey expansion, the Bestower was notable for being the largest industrial that can be flown with ranks 1-3 racial industrial skill. This made it a popular ship for a minimally skilled hauler alt. This changed with the release of Odyssey 1.0 which made all industrial ships available at racial industrial level 1. This made the [[Iteron Mark V]] the largest T1 industrial. With the Odyssey 1.1 patch, the Bestower regained its position as the highest capacity generic T1 hauler in the Eve. It also lost a mid-slot and gained 2 low slots making it a more attractive target for a suicide gank. Smart hauling practices apply here more than ever: [[Hauling#AFK_Hauling|Don't Haul AFK]], [[Bookmarks#Instant_Warp-Out|use insta-undocks]] and [[Hauling#Expensive_Cargo|3,000 ISK per EHP]].
Foregoing tank and agility, the Bestower has the largest maximum cargo capacity of all industrial ships at 39202m3.
The Bestower is a purely cargo capacity-oriented Industrial, capable of hauling great loads of valuable goods through the darkness of space.
Development The Bestower has for decades been used by the Empire as a slave transport, shipping human labor between cultivated planets in Imperial space. As a proof to how reliable this class has been through the years, the Emperor has used an upgraded version of this very same class as transports for the Imperial Treasury. The Bestower has very thick armor and large cargo space.
