Regarding the T1 industrials, all the info I found by google is quite outdated...

1.What is the best T1 industrial cargo size wise and durability wise? I keep seeing the Iteron Mark V on the list but again, the info is quite old so I don't know. I keep seeing people fitting the already squishy industrials with even more non-tank related modules but is this standard practice or are they really so weak its not even worth trying to tank them?

2.I know there are some higher tiers of industrials as you skill up according to race but evewiki and eveuniwiki articles make it sound as if there's really no difference between them and its pure aesthetics. Simply put, is there a best race for all the tiers of industrials overall?

3. Is eveuni and evewiki reliable at all? I know not all of the info is valid but I keep seeing the a lot the tag of ''not valid as of Odyssey X.X''

Thanks a lot again for the responses in advance :)

eveuni seems the most reliable and up-to-date. I don't use evewiki. Evelopedia is good for somethings, bad for others.

If you're hauling a particular type of good that can be hauled with one of the gallente haulers, then use that one as they can fit for tank/agility and not compromise hauling space. Since the industrial rebalance i believe every race has a tanky hauler, that aside they're gonna die pretty easy. I would use EFT to see how easy.

The amarr Bestower currently has the highest cargo capacity, at a little under 40k. The Itty 5 is around 37k, with the mammoth at around 35k. Can't recall the numbers for caldari, but it's less than amarr.

Each race gets one focused on cargo, and one focused on agility/tank. The rest have special commodity bays that can only hold certain types of materials, but have much more space.

The new industrials are the best ones, for a very simple reason. Commodity holds are not affected by cargo expanders.

You may think this is a bad thing, as you can't increase their capacity. You would be wrong. This allows you to fill the lows with i-stabs and nanos, drastically reducing align time, and thus increasing survivability and lowering travel time. Plus they have upwards of 60k capacity with a maxxed skill.
