Lost my carrier to a level 5 mission yesterday \o/ 1.9 bil


I'm not going to even ask how that was possible. Did you mean you got attacked and killed by a "player" in a level 5?

As for mine, I'm not sure if I've ever lost a ship worth over a bil. But I tend to never fit over T2 mods with rare exceptions. (At the time it was lost. I lost a carrier once worth just under a bil at the time.) But I'll add that I lost a true sansha POS and all true sansha mods with it worth 5bil or so when I quit eve for a few months. I now want nothing to do with POS's ever EVER again. (Not that anyone actually ever does anyway, with how they currently work.)



Since he hasn't come back... he died to the mission rats. The Fortress does a pretty insane amount of dps. MORE than enouhh to easily break the tank on a carrier. Its pretty unforgiving in any carrier, and he was in a niddy, which tanks rather badly to begin with.

Lost a 3bil varg ages ago when 3bil was still money cause I was drunk and and blobs
Lost like a 2bil varg to a disconnect in sanctum
Think I lost another varg or mach to a mac client crash
Lost a 2-3bil mach while my friend was flying the account. He gave me his mach, but still "the gate was clear 5 minutes ago" wtf??
Lost a 5b carrier cause same friend made a bad cyno and bunch of PL undocked and keeeeeled it
Alt flew logi for years and didn't lose a thing apart from 2 scimis and rapier

If anyone feels like they wanna loose something expensive and doesn't want the loss on their board just contract it over to this toon, it can endure the loss! Irony in the name from 2006...

Edit: also bought invuln II in jita for over a bil once cause I wasn't looking, that was a great feeling...

Only one?

1. Tengu: 2.5 billion ISK. Attacked a small bait POS in w-space. Corp also lost a Revelation and Chimera.
2. Raven Navy Issue: over 2 billion ISK. Got disconnected in a mission.
3. Rorqual: self-destructed in a C2.

All of the above have been replaced, and I have 2 or 3 identically fit Tengu (lost count).

My pod is worth well over a billion in implants. Lost that too with the Tengu loss above.

No kidding, boredom also - Lost a 2B Carrier that had a Tengu, another 1B in ships and a rare BPC. Good 4B total loss.

WH loss, no targets for days, then was drunk and bored one day and chased down an obvious bait Mega just sitting out in the open. Killed him, but instead of staying aligned and warping off like a good cap pilot, I waited for his friends (that were WAY late). They finally got here and we had gud-fun.

Later learned they were had waited in the system TWO WEEKS to get me, since I had dropped a carrier on a Drake of theirs earlier, for similar reasons of boredom and the fact WHs make you rich to the point of not caring about a 3B loss.

But my corp-mate was in our Anshar and got tagged in a gate-camp. He was also drunk and though he was in our Obelisk and just gave the ship up by ejecting in order to prevent a kill-loss. Later realized the magnitude of the loss. DERP

Multiple carriers, multiple dreads, few pimped T3s, one Widow - Im sure there are more, but many billions have been lost in battle.

EDIT: Lost over 2 bil in 15 minutes tro SOMER.

Not counting 20 bil I lost in one afternoon to SOMER. Now that was very, very close rage quit. Had few mil left on balance after that Big smile

That lottery has killed more billions then 10 Fountain wars.
