The '''M Class''' is a very large [[:Category:Miner|Miner]] that was added in .60d. It comes equipped with 4 of its unique [[Turrets|M Class Mining Lasers]], 6000 Ore Hold, and 400 Cargo Hold. It has a high amount of [[Hull]] but a low amount of [[Shields]], making it vulnerable to [[Pirating|Pirates]]. It also moves quite slowly when not in [[Warp Drive|Warp.]] It takes a minimum of 157 seconds to fill up its hold.

To enter the '''M Class''', you must walk on the top of the ship at the to the teleporter . Upon walking on the teleporter, you will enter a large, mostly empty, room. From the left hand side, there is a cyan blue couch, while on the right hand side, there is a small kitchen. There are lots of windows in front and around the seat, as well as a hologram, stating: "All systems Online". If you jump while hugging the wall right next the teleporter, you will enter a secret room.

* Due to the size and maneuverability along with the not too ideal overall health, the '''M Class''' is very prone to being pirated and easily destroyed by even smaller ships like the [[Aeaphiel]] or a couple of [[Centurion|Centurions]]; do not take unnecessary risks by mining far away from the nearest base/planet you can dock at, where there is a considerable risk that other players may declare a surprise war on your team, leaving you with little opportunity to escape and de-spawn in time.

* Due to the recent [[:Category:Miner|Miner]] cost nerfs, this ship is a somewhat viable nuking ship in terms of cost-effectiveness. Don't try to nuke anything that has a sizeable amount of [[Shields|Shield]] HP, though.
