So, assuming this pastebin on ship changes and new modules is real (the rookie frigates definitely are), I'd just like to say THANKS! As an industrial pilot, sometimes we feel a little left behind.

The only quibble I have is with the exhumer skill bonuses per level on the Skiff and Mackinaw being pretty anemic. 1% boost to yield and duration per level (max 5%) could probably do with a little tweak upwards. Other than that, looks good and keep on truckin'!

Agreed, those numbers are looking SHINY. People actually using Procurers? A new day has dawned in EvE!

The new rigs (two of them) are interesting. However, I'd have to wonder what good the other 1/2 rig slots will be when the ore bay is a unique storage (no longer cargo hold), and you can only fit one mining rig. Can't believe I'm saying this - is it possible exhumer/barge pilots will use rig slots for tank, making these changes even more of a smack at the gankers?

Not sure what to say/feel about the rigs, and I agree with Casiella - the per-level bonuses are pretty anemic.
