The Bagger is basically a tier 4 Mining Laser combined with a tier 4 Tractor Beam (saying tier 4 because they are better than tier 3). It mines asteroids automatically when near them and collects their ores extremely quickly. It's also a good way to save up some space for turrets on your ship.

Tips and Tricks[ | ]

When getting chased for example in insane or hardcore mode. You can just fly around asteroids to make the bagger mine them automatically and collect their ores without having to slow down your ship to mine them manually.
