Lost a tengu worth about 2.5bil in highsec to a gate suicide. I've lost others but that one was the only to be that expensive...so far!

"Tomahawks?"

"----in' A, right?"

"Trouble is, those things cost like a million and a half each."

"----, you pay me half that and I'll hump in some c4 and blow the ---- out of it my own damn self."

My tengu cost 3bil fitted out. Funny enough, I don't fly it anymore. I guess i'm getting used to not using it in preparation for it being nerfed into the ground. Arrow

I did.

Only because the salesman told me that despite looking like an ordinary shuttle, it was actually a limited edition T3 shuttle with CQ door opening missiles.

Umm... Lost a mission running Machariel a few years ago when I was still pretty new, and incursion income was absolutely out of control. Back then i doubt it wouldve been 1 bill, but now, probably close to 2 bil.

Also, I lost a loki a few weeks ago when my WH corp got ganked running escalations by Blood Union. That was, like, 1.1, 1.2? Plus a partial set of LG slaves.

Today, I lost a rookie frigate worth about 850-900mil. Mostly implants. I accidently undocked with them in high-sec in a negative sec status pilot, instead of trading them too my alt like I meant too. I managed to loot about half of em though. Still kinda sucked.


Oh, almost forgot, I also lost a Legion once that was a bit over a bil.

I think thats about it.

Got about a dozen losses in the 400-800mil range though. Vigi. couple nighthawks. Like, 4 or 5 more legions. A fuckton assorted battleships.


Basically, if I didn't lose so many ******* ships I would probably be able to afford bargain fitted Nyx by now.

Also, did not realize that was your alt. I feel very stupid now.

Got drunk and lost a Vindi once. And again. And again. And this one time (recently) I got drunk and jumped An Anshar. That was a sore one.

Oh and some Loki losses.

I could quit drinking but I prefer to limit ship types instead.

Incursion Mach.

At least they didn't say their logs showed nothing. They said my drones agro'd a fleet member.

Awesome trick while on assist.

:DDD this could be my motto!

My loss ship of choice is the Proteus. Unfortunately most of them end up on the killboard, except the one I got CONCORDed.

Haven't lost a single ship worth that much yet, have a few losses around 700-800 mil though. In total I've lost around 12 bil in ships so far.

Lost a PVE fit Machariel, warped into a mission but got distracted with a real life cup of tea. Came back to the computer to find the ship hopelessly webbed, scrammed and low in structure. Frantically tried to get out but was too late.

Also lost a Loki when I joined corp mates in a low sec honour fight and was squished. Overview on that client was a mess and my fit was awful for PVP with almost no buffer. Was fun though.

Navy apoc 1 billion in highsec because I left it alone in the epic arc mission and went to drink water...

No trolling please, I got enough when I lost it

Oh and I lost an orca was very close to 1 bill worth because the Mr. Blue POS decided that I'm not blue to him and he did not like me being near its guns... don't ask why also Pirate

Seeing i'm a carebear i don't lose ships often.

I did lose a couple nice ones in a row, cuz of rage. Corp got a wardec and the leadership was cowering in station sitting on their hands.

Corpies were willing to fight but leadership did nothing. Got tired of it and confronted a buncha campers...

Ik new i was going to get whacked, but who cares, so i launched my NH, then when it got popped i docked and launched in a Falcon, which also got whacked.

A day later i got flack from that, so i told them to go **** them selves and quit corp.

Should've joined the other side then really... but i'm a carebear at heart. Lol

btw, they were nowhere near 1 bill tbh Lol

I haven't ever lost a 1 bil+ ship** in combat*.

*I once got awoxed. I was living in a wormhole at the time and someone stole my orca with a faction large pos and some smaller modules in the cargo, the total cargo was around 4 bil. So I 'lost' it but not in the traditional pew pew way.

**I once lost a pod over one bil once. Again I was in a wormhole and we were bashing a customs office to put up our own, and because of the whole wormhole thing I couldn't jump clone into a throw away. We then got jumped because 3 hours of mindlessly structure shooting and alcohol don't mix well with D-scan. My stealth bomber blew up inside of a hictor bubble so they got to pod me. I had a 5% PG implant, a set of +4's, and my precious mining foreman implant.
