Description

A prototype drone developed by CreoDron based on ORE's 'Excavator' mining drone design by incorporating experimental rogue drone technology. The harvesting protocols have been altered to behave much more like a Rogue Drone would when salvaging and recycling materials to be brought back to a rogue drone hive. The result is a far more efficient mining process creating less residue, albeit a slower one resulting in lower mining yields over time.

Currently this drone is unsuitable for mass production due to a high rejection rate with the rogue drone technology. CreoDron is hoping to improve their understanding of this process from knowledge gained from the Gallente Federation Military Campaign operation 'Rogue Edge'.
