The Orca is the second-best non-limited Miner in the ship building menu, but it is not as good as the famous [[Galaxy]]. It features 6 [[Turrets|Medium Mining Lasers]], the most for a non-VIP, and non-Event. | The Orca is the second-best non-limited Miner in the ship building menu, but it is not as good as the famous [[Galaxy]].

Tested and done in 1.6 Hours. (Editorial Note: '''This strategy is not related to the use of this ship.''' Additionally, this is ''not'' a recommended strategy if you do not have a back-up or replacement Miner that is relatively on par or better than the mining efficiency of the [[M Class]]. It is advised instead to attempt to find the occasional large ore chunks of uranium around [[Frion I]] if it is level 3, in a public server; or otherwise exchange salvaged [[Ores and Materials|Plasma Batteries]] for uranium upstairs of terminal D in [[Mega Base]].) | ||
