(I changed the basic magnate fit from being armor tanked to having three nanos because I believe that if you get locked in an exploration frigate, you're pretty much dead anyway, and that it's a much better defense to simply not get locked.) |

Summary
The Magnate is the Amarr Tech 1 exploration and scanning frigate. It is a good ship for rookies or veterans who are getting into probing and don't have the skills for the T2 version, the Anathema. Its bonus to cycle time for hacking, archaeology, and salvaging modules means it can be very effective for looting exploration sites as well.
Skills
Further information about additional or recommended skills to pilot Magnate for a specific or its common role(s) can be written here.

- CPU Management 5
- Tough to fit, CPU wise. Add more CPU enhancers if necessary. T2 the nanofibers if money and skills allow.
- Should be able to permarun the MWD. Adjust the nanofibers and relays if so.
- Can fit combat and core scanner probes.
- The hornets *might* save you if you're tackled at a gate, if you deploy them in time and get a jam off.

- This fit makes the Magnate into a small and agile freighter for fast travel in high-sec, or to use in low-sec to take your PI stuff from the customs office to a station.
- The cargohold max out at 1607.7m3 with this configuration.
- With a Prototype Cloaking Device II you are able to make the MWD/cloaking-trick if the gate is camped out.

- Prototype Cloaking Device I is a cheaper alternative to Improved Cloaking Device II but reduces speed while cloaked.
- Remove Hornet EC-300 and the cloak for Alpha clone pilot
- Hornet EC-300 needs the most training but is only needed when in hostile space
- Low slots can be modified to pilot preference:
- Inertial Stabilizer provide increased maneuverability at the expense of reducing time to be locked
- Nanofiber Internal Structure provide increased maneuverability and speed at the expense of reduced structure hitpoints
- Can swap in Overdrive Injector for increased speed at the expense of cargo capacity
- Can swap in Warp Core Stabilizer to negate warp disruption/scrambler effects at the expense of shorter targeting range and longer lock times
- Can swap in Expanded Cargohold for increased cargo capacity at the expense of speed and reduced structure hitpoints

- You can swap Scan Acquisition Array I for Scan Rangefinding Array I for more scan strength (at the cost of scan speed)
- Sister's Expanded Probe Launcher can be used for additional scan strength but is an expensive module for hero/suicide tackle
- To avoid jumping into the fray take a command position in fleet, toggle "exempt from fleet warp", then warp squad/fleet to the signature scanned down
- Switch one rig to Small Gravity Capacitor Upgrade II and replace the other with Small Hyperspatial Velocity Optimizer II to keep similar scan strength and increase warp speed to reach the target faster (+1.25 AU/s)
Tactics
While not designed for combat, one can still combat fit an exploration frigate to catch unsuspected lone gankers off guard. When fitting for combat, as other races' exploration frigates, the Magnate has a severe shortage of power grid while having a huge CPU reservoir. Plus the ship has no bonus to guns or missiles, it is best to fit missile or rockets to save on power grid for prop and repper. The large CPU left over can then be used to fit a range of damage, resist or ewar mods.
Notes
This vessel qualifies for the University Ship Replacement Program, PYOS, and BYOM.
