====== Mackinaw ====== {{https://image.eveonline.com/Render/22548_256.png?nolink}} ===== Overview ===== ---- The Mackinaw is the Exhumer with the largest ore hold, though it lacks in tank when compared to the [[eve:ships:mining_barges:skiff|Skiff]]. The Mackinaw will be a target in every type of space in EVE, making the Skiff the recommended Exhumer to use to avoid being a target for ganks. ==== Required Skills ==== * Mining Barge V * Astrogeology III * Science IV * Mining IV * Industry V * Mining Frigate III * Spaceship Command I * Exhumers I * Astrogeology V * Science IV * Mining IV * Industry V * Spaceship Command IV ==== Ship Description ==== 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 them to do the work of three modules. Exhumers are equipped with electronic subsystems specifically designed to accommodate Strip Mining and Ice Harvesting modules. ==== Traits ==== **Mining Barge Skill Bonuses (Per Skill Level):**\\ **5%** bonus to ship ore hold capacity\\ **2%** reduction in **Strip Miner** and **Ice Harvester** duration **Exumers Skill Bonuses (Per Skill Level):**\\ **4%** bonus to all shield resistances\\ **2%** reduction in **Strip Miner** and **Ice Harvester** duration ===== Fittings ===== ---- ==== Mining ==== === Basic Mackinaw (just use a skiff) === Exchange Tank/Damage for local rats.
