Probe

Probe

Probe The Probe is large compared to most Minmatar frigates and is considered a good scout and cargo-runner. Uncharacteristically for a Minmatar ship, its hard outer coating makes it difficult to destroy, while the limited weapon hardpoints force it to rely on fighter assistance if engaged in combat.

Minmatar Frigate Skill Bonus:
5% bonus cargo capacity per skill level
5% bonus to scan strength of probes per skill level
5% bonus to survey probe flight time per level

The Probe as a cargo runner

New capsuleers should not ignore the ability of the Probe ship to be a good cargo runner. It has a sizable cargo hold for its size and with a skill based bonus, it can allow pilot to haul relatively large amount of good with ease. Also, since it is a basic T1 frigate, it is quite cheap to acquire and fit.
