If you don't have a Procurer at the time of the op, ask the Fleet Commander—the FC might have extras, or you might be able to contract one from the AMC ship hangar. The only downside of the Procurer is its relatively low mining yield. The Skiff is even tankier than the Procurer, and gets mining yield bonuses that make it about as efficient as a Covetor. Even though the replacement cost looks prohibitive, it is extremely difficult for a solo or small group of pirates to take down a Skiff. | If you don't have a Procurer at the time of the op, ask the Fleet Commander—the FC might have extras, or you might be able to contract one from the AMC ship hangar.

If you mine from a stand-still, as you would in high-sec, you will be vulnerable to being scrammed and webbed by aggressors before you can warp away. On the other hand, if your ship is aligned towards a warp-out point, and moving at least 75% of its maximum speed, you can warp out immediately at the first sign of trouble (If that's what you want. Procurers also make great bait for aggressors—more on that later). This means that constructing alignment bookmarks is an important part of mining in low sec. For low-sec fleets that Clutter Fonulique and Antei Thantonne host, we will supply you with a container of asteroid-belt and/or ore-anomaly bookmarks at the beginning of the op. The bookmarks have a particular naming format, modeled after [http://www.agony-unleashed.com/wiki/index.php?title=Bookmarks Agony Unleashed's format], that looks like this: | If you mine from a stand-still, as you would in high-sec, you will be vulnerable to being scrammed and webbed by aggressors before you can warp away.
