Went with a Procurer until I get the isk for a skiff.
Here is the fit
High: modulated strip miner II
Medium: Medium shield booster II Invulnerability Field I EM shield resist I (passive) Thermal shield resist I (passive)
Low: Damage control I Power Diagnostic System I
Rigs: 3x Capacitor Control Circuit I
This build nets me about 38,000 defensive points and is cap stable even with a medium shield booster.
A much better tank than my pitiful previous Covetor.. but when I got it ganked I was not aware of the changes made to the mining barges... I always learn things the hard way I guess..... |

Latest update...
In a Skiff now with more resists and defensive points than my mains Apocolypse.
61,867 DHP
It is also cap stable with a medium shield booster....
I don't think I will get ganked anytime too soon and If I do they will take a loss as it will take quite a few ships to bring me down before they get concorded....
Problem solved. |

Nope I'm not a troll just been away from the game for a while and occasionally fail to read all forum posts before I act.... sorry.
That being said I get it.... make the skiff a passive shield tank... kinda like a Nighthawk... drop the CCC rigs put in shield extenders and drop the medium booster and replace with a medium shield extender...
Makes sense and I won't have to worry about needing to activate a booster which makes sense for a semi afk miner that is used while missioning or otherwise with my main.

With the passive tank fit my EHP in the skiff is around 89,000.
I should rename my skiff "GANK THIS SUCKA!"
LOL....
Although if I do that I may end up drawing too much attention....
So I will keep its current name of "Dig Dig".
Cool thing about the skiff is not only does it have double the cargo space of a covetor, but it flies at 230 mps without an afterburner and gets a 200% bonus to its mining laser... It's single laser can pull as much as the three lasers on the Hulk.... granted you have to manually cycle them occasionally to avoid wasteing time as it pops a single roid very quickly. Also if you want to mine roids that are different you have to change crystals instead of putting three different crystals in three different strip miners...
All tradoffs well worth it as an alt-tab miner......... The survivability is most excellent..... |
