I will assume you are asking about how bounty payouts work. A bounty is paid out to the party that killed the person in question based on a % value of how much the ship they were flying at the time was worth coupled with the total amount of bounty on the person.

It's worth noting the bounty system is largely redundant, you shouldn't worry if someone has put a bounty on you.

I really hope that the system gets some love soon(TM), it has sadly never been a viable profession. Although the idea is brilliant the execution always ran into limitation.

There have been interesting ideas floating around but I am sure after null space is a fun playground again stuff like that might get looked at. At this point it is the added benefit that if you kill someone anyway, you get your ammo costs refunded.

Only once if you get in a 55 mil isk ship and let someone blow you up.

Depends what you are flying at the time.

The bounty is paid out at 20% of the value of your ship, so you need to lose 55 million worth of ship to lose the bounty. This could be 1 ship of 55 mil or over or 55 1 mil ships, doesn't matter.

As it is sucha low bounty is not really worth worrying a about. If you are in high sec nobody is going to suicide gank you or war dec you for an 11 million bounty. If you are anywher else it is not going to make people any ore likely to kill you than they already are.

I dare say that asking about Bounty removal on here may result in the opposite happening...

But all in all it doesn't really matter, people won't shoot you just because you have a bounty.
They will shoot you just because your there :)

There is no such thing as a fair fight...

If your fighting fair you have automatically put yourself at a disadvantage.

Bounties are street cred anyway.

You occasionally see people offering ISK to anyone that will put a bounty on them. I suppose the idea is if you kill a few of your own alts to get some KMs up and then get people to bounty you up that will make you look "hardcore" :D

There used to be a guy in Rens that regularly put a bounty on everyone in local. Presumably for lols and so his own bounty would be less noticeable while scamming. Not sure if he still does it.

I thought it would be a 110 million isk ship if 10% of ship value is payed in bounty? Did you accidentally hit 2 instead of 1 on the calculator?

Oh, I perfectly understand, Hal Morsh — a mission like this requires courage, skill, and heroism… qualities you are clearly lacking. Have you forgotten you're one of the bloody immortals!?

Will not re-bounty you for the low low price of 20m

There once was a ganker named tisi

A stunningly beautiful missy

To gank a gross miner

There is nothing finer, cept when they get all pissy

No Hal, I didn't, read the documentation before you post.

Huh. So it is 20%.

For Hal....

Have you heard anything I've said?

You said it's all circling the drain, the whole universe. Right?

That's right.

Bounties are street cred...how ridiculous. Bounties are digital nailbiting, put on people in starter systems by noobs who think they're being cute, or their "clever" counterparts "helping" them with the tutorials. It's so absurd, any adult would yank the system once they'd seen it being used in such an infantile fashion. However, some adults and I sharply disagree on many things, apparently.

But, yeah. Let's raise the ante here. Bounty Removal? How do we get CCP to:

REMOVE THE BOUNTY SYSTEM ENTIRELY?

There just isn't anything that can be said!

Nehh I wouldn't worry much about bounties.
Consider them a mark of honor ( especially if they come from butthurts). When you die, you die, killer gets some ISK but you don't lose ISK ( not counting your recently boom'ed ship).

Just don't fly shinier than shiny ships and you will be fine.

I'll tell you the most annoying thing about bounties.

That stupidly large wanted banner blocks the view of my Godly chest and arms. To deny people the opportunity to gaze upon such perfection is just wrong.

Wrong, I tell you!

Remove the Bounty lol Really I like the fear of the unknown on my 8th day in game I got a 10 mil Bounty put on me I hope it was from the high level player I ganked ok he was on my wingman and I fired a salvo of Caldari missiles at him poof! ok he was a bit hot but this is a war game that Bounty is not of any concern to me, its not enough for someone to risk there ship and gear for if it was there would not be so many high level amounts for bounty on some. imp cheers to all-
