Background and Overview
The purpose of this page is to assist Amarr Mining Campus members with procuring ships and other items via the multiple channels available within the campus. Titled AMC members and AMC officers work together to provide access to the various resources available on campus and this page will help you to understand how to acquire or request various items.
Who can request/obtain items
Any AMC member or an alt accepted to the campus may make requests for ships, and other items. Due to the mechanics of corporate hangers, only Eve University members may obtain items directly from the corporate hanger.
How to request/obtain items
When you first get to campus, you may feel hesitant about asking for things, but try your best to overcome that feeling as soon as possible. If there is someone around who can help you, they will happily do so or point you in the right direction.
If you need assistance, is most efficient to start by asking other members unless you are fairly certain your request can only be fulfilled by an officer.
- Eve University members with a Freshman or higher Title can access the Corporate Hangar available to that title and take the item(s) needed. Please make sure to follow the instructions from the Corporation Hangar page when accessing the hanger.
- Freshman --> Alpha Hanger
- Sophomore --> Theta Hanger
- Graduate --> Special Hangers
- Members without a title must request assistance from others
Try to be as specific as possible about what you are looking for:
- Is there any one around that can get me 2 Miner I from the hanger?
- Is there an officer that can sell me a T1 Ore Procurer?
What can be requested/obtained
Tech 1
Free T1 Mining Ship
If you are concerned that you do not have a usable ship for mining when you join the Amarr Mining Campus, the AMC offers a free Venture. To get the Venture you can take one out of the Corporation Hangar in the Home Station if you already have an Eve University Title or request one via the methods listed above.
Free T1 Mining Modules
To help get new miners started in the Amarr Mining Campus, you can make use of the following Modules from the Corporation Hanger in the home station to fit your ship for optimal mining:
- Ice Harvester Upgrade I
- Miner I
- Mining Drone I
- Mining Laser Upgrade I
- Survey Scanner I
Free T1 Supplies
The corporation hanger is well stocked with additional T1 modules and supplies too numerous to list. Here is a sample of what is available:
| General | Ammo | Skillbooks |
| 5MN Microwarpdrive I | Fusion S | Afterburner |
| Data Analyzer I | Radio S | Drones |
| Scan Pinpointing Array I | Thorium Charge S | Spaceship Command |
If you do not see an item in the corporation hangar or cannot access it, please ask about the availability of the item you are seeking using the methods previously mentioned.
Half-Priced Mining Barges
In your stay at the Amarr Mining Campus, the AMC offers half-priced Mining Barges (Retriever, Covetor, and Procurer) to members. These Mining Barges are made available at half of Jita price, and are available at home station; additionally, you may purchase any mining modules, that are not available for free through the corporation hangars, at full Jita price. This service allows new AMC members to get started with mining very quickly once making their way to the campus. While the AMC is excited to offer this service, we do ask that you limit half-priced Mining Barge requests to one at a time. Please, contact an officer to make a request of this service.
How do I know which Barge I want
Which barge to select depends on your style of play and your objectives.
For a more detailed comparison of the base ships, see Mining Ship Comparision.
I know what I want but I'm not sure I can fly it
There are a couple of ways to verify that you can fly a fit. While you could look up ships and modules individually, it is easiest to use the built in Eve tools along with some simple cutting and pasting. The general procedure that will work for just about any ship is listed below.
- Click on the link for one of the barges (Retriever, Covetor, and Procurer)
- Alternatively, you may also find fits from other online sources
- Scroll to the section called "Fitting" and click the link
- Find a fitting you like and click on the acronym 'EFT'
- This is a simple format that the Eve client understands
- If you are getting a fit from another online source, be sure to find the EFT version of the fit
- Copy the contents of the EFT window to the clipboard (Select all the text and <CTRL>-C to copy is easiest)
- Alternatively, you can save to a file
- In the Eve client, go to the Neocom menu and select "Fitting Management"
- Click on "Import from clipboard"
- Alternatively, you can import from file
- Review the fit
- Any red x means you don't have the required skills trained
- Be sure to click on "Simulate" to verify CPU and Capacitor usage
Note: You may also receive a fitting in the chat window. Clicking on it will allow you to verify your skills as above.
Loaner Fleet
The Amarr Mining Campus will loan mining related ships from our "loaner fleet", however this more of a dorsal fin than a fleet as it only consists of Retriever and Covetor.
Loan Policies
Mining ship loans are made with the hope that they will allow you to earn the funds to purchase a mining vessel of your own. Participation in AMC operations is optional but encouraged. Membership to the AMC is required for a loan mining barge of the types specified and it will be loaned within the AMC area.
- Loans are made for two weeks. Extended loans will be granted based on individual decisions.
- Contract will be issued by an AMC Team member for the specified ship and fitting.
- The ship must be returned with the loan fitting at the end of the loan period.
- In the case of ship loss, inform an AMC Team member as soon as possible with the kill mail and an explanation of what happened. In this case the borrower is expected to replace the lost ship and fittings.
- Each AMC member may have only one loaned ship at a time.
- Ships are loaned without rigs. If you return the ship with fitted rigs, due to game mechanics we cannot return the rigs, nor will we offer to repay or replace them.
Placing a ship Loan Request
Send a forum mail to any AMC Team member. If a fit is desired then please specify in the mail otherwise the barge will be loaned with no fittings. An AMC Officer will either contract you the barge or they may trade it with yourself. Once the loaned barge has been accepted and after the loan period, you can contract or trade the barge back.
