Mackinaw
RELATED UNI-WIKI REFERENCES
|
The exhumer is the second generation of mining vessels created by ORE. Exhumers, like their mining barge cousins, were each created to excel at a specific function, the Mackinaw's being storage. Although it only has space to fit two mining or ice harvesting modules, a fast loading system allows those two module to do the work of three modules. Exhumers are equipped with electronic subsystems specifically designed to accommodate Strip Mining and Ice Harvesting modules. SHIP BONUSES

Summary
The Mackinaw has the largest ore bay of the Exhumers, which makes it ideal for solo operations, but sacrifices some tank and yield.

- The fitted tank is mainly to discourage alpha gankers, which are the main threat you will face in the Mackinaw's common usage area where CONCORD response times are near-instantaneous.
- Both the Domination EM Ward Field and the Domination Thermic Dissipation Amplifier are rather cheap at time of writing, clocking in below 10 million ISK.
- If you use a Medium Processor Overclocking Unit I rig in place of the shield rig, you can replace some faction modules with their T2 variations for reduced tank that also comes with a slightly lower price tag.

- The fitted tank is mainly to discourage alpha gankers, which are the main threat you will face in the Mackinaw's common usage area where CONCORD response times are near-instantaneous.
- All the faction modules used are rather cheap, clocking in below 10 million ISK at time of writing.
- If you are willing to sacrifice yield, replacing the Medium Ice Harvester Accelerator I rig with a second Medium Processor Overclocking Unit I rig will allow you to replace faction modules with their T2 counterparts for a reduction in price.
