So when I looked at the most recent titan kill and realized it was Hurley, I was reminded of the old MORE BUBBLES video.

This made me realize this was not the first titan Hurley have lost so I started to look at eve kill to look for the old kill and I found a 3'ed titan back in 2009.

So my question is that is Hurley now that character in eve that have lost the most titans or is there anyone out there who have lost more?

Titans seem to be outside of the "don't fly what you can't afford to lose" rule due to their extreme price and low chance of loss. It is not improbable that following a Titan loss the owner - unable to afford a new ship - would sell the character on the Bazaar to a new owner who would almost indubitably be buying the character due to an imminent Titan purchase.

Purely a guess as I don't follow it too hard but PL would be highest in one fight - after that probably N3/Goons.

The way they proliferated recently means it can only be one of three, I have mentioned them all so far.

Aaaaaaand relax.

Titan pilots are usually alts as there is not a lot of day to day uses for a Titan and you cannot just dock a Titan and switch to another type of ship - you are kinda stuck in the Titan till someone else takes over it or it dies.

Also remember Titans are often supplied by the alliance/coalition rather than bought by the individual player.

Who HAS lost....that looks so dumb. Feel bad. Very bad.

We must accommodate the idiocracy.

Alot of titans are bought by the normal members and not from higher up

Many, many titans and supers are bought this way. They're not cheap, but players can afford them. Often, the alliance will help via donations or freighter ganking, rather than funding directly through the corps coffer.

It is Shrike, the alt of SirMolle.

I think it's at 5 Avatars lost now.
