At this moment this is only a question as some people may have allready figured out the answer to my question how ever if there arent a good explaination then this thing that I am brining up should be changed.


What can you fit in the 3rd high slot of the ORE mining frigate that benefits a mining pilot?
and in fictional storlyline-wise what was the designers at Outer Ring Excavations having in their minds when they designed this for the capsuleers of new eden, how are those high slots utelizes for the purpouse of mining?

Probably the first thing that comes to mind is a cloak module. Combine that with the +2 warp str, its got that extra chance of surviving in hostile space. It'll still explode if something sneezes at it, but that's completely fine Twisted

Cloak or probe launcher. or both and still have what adds up to being 2 miners or gas harvesters.

cloak.
probe launcher
tractor beam

there's many, many things you can put in that final high slot.
personally if you have a mining frig in the fleet, give it a tractor beam to move cans to the orca so the orca doesn't have to have every one piled on top of it if you're using all 3 gang links.
