I guess if you just really dont want to train astrogeology then the frigate makes sense.. other than that. useless
iirc the ore mining frigate skill is a x2 skill, even to rank 1 will take practically no time. the ore frigate is vastly superior to a bantam for example. to a person who has a 3 day old account that 5k ore bay kicks the stuffing out of a 300m3 ore bay on a bantam. not to mention the ore frig has an extra mining turret.
even training ore frig to I and then focusing on skills for a mining barge won't be wasted.
the ore frigate isn't meant to replace a mining barge, it's meant to replace those damn awful racial mining frigates which are absolutely terrible because they have about 120 seconds of mining time's worth of ore hold.
the ore frigate is far from useless, you just don't seem to really understand how mining works. Reading my posts is like panning for gold; most it will be useless, but occasionally you'll find a nugget of gold. |

Now if all highslots had a graphic, like a dish array for cloak, or rep turrets, or smartbomb pulse emitters. it would all look better.
Whats going to kill me are slot locations that are NEVER used. such as the caldari destroyer. the model was designed for 8 slots. It has been already balanced down to 7 highs. So unless they take off some geometry... thats going to drive me nuts. |

Confirming that is annoying. The Minmatar one had a random rear turret placement that didn't involve a hard point - gives me hope that it's still very much a work in progress. I think the Ore Frigate is pretty cool, JCB in space |
