My ATRON OF GRAET JUSTICE managed to snag some very expensive crystals and ammo from one CCP wreck, as well as a monocle and some faction mods. Hello 2.5 billion ISK.

10/10, would ninja loot again

Nice to see that 8 Guardians can hold the line pretty well. Curious to know if there was a link between their loss and the eventual loss of the fleet (other than when the larger fleets came in and focused fire).

Though I was not there, I do appreciate your giving this a shot, and will be keeping an eye out for this 'later' event which was hinted at.

This was fun! Big thanks to everyone :)

Next time though.. can you guys not call me as the first primary of the whole engagement please? So I can enjoy maybe 5 minutes of a fleet fight !? Made me sadpanda to be gone in the first wave.. you'd be doing the other devs a favour too since I've been whining non stop about dying so early..

..pretty please.. with cherries on top n stuff..?

KTHXBAI !

I am not on a single killmail, only on the lossmail.

Have I lost EVE? Sad

well next time take a system that is cyno jammed so that the "PVP PRO's" can not kill the whole fun with their ****** supers because they cannot do it without them...

would make a lot more eve guys happier (much more than that will be sad because of this...)

oh... or bring supers yourself so that they also risk to loose a ship or two Cool

Looked like it was a great event, sorry I missed it for the most part. Couple questions though, why the need to add those plex to your cargo holds? Nice infusion of extra billions and billions of isk in the economy that we didnt really need. Second, would this be a good time to spark up the old "keep supers out of low sec" debate again?? Lol (which I think they should not be allowed in low sec for the record)


PLEX does not add any ISK to the economy, only moves it around from one player to another. You need to go learn what a faucet is before you put in snide commentary.

I think this just proves that this game is all about luck. No really, I have absolutely no skills and didn't know what I was doing half the time, I was mostly just clicking random things.... :P



About that, was there any plan about the notion that it might be a good idea to try sneeking into suj? also, as a matter of curiosity, did you take the lesson about friendship, love and tolerance to heart after that visit? there are lots of useful lessons to be had from that particular brand of love and tolerance !


Well, the client lag was pretty bad in the blob (my overview and bracket settings were...errrr.. not optimal) and there were shouts about supercaps and stuff coming in. Couple that with a semi-annoyed phonecall from my gf about me missing dinner, so I decided to to see if someone would follow if I warped off, maybe spread the fight a bit... Coming out of warp at the gate, I saw 2 or 3 flashy red guys on my tail, so I figured I'd take the fight to the other side of the gate and make my stand there. That was, to put it mildly, not a good decision, survival-wise Oops

But then again, survival wasn't my goal and I'd gotten my fair share of player kills so... Evil

But spread around amidst all the killing of spaceships and collecting of corpses, I did feel a great deal of love and compassion oozing from the interwebs.

I'm speaking for all of PL when I say CCP should use supercapitals and titans in these events and that losing our supercaps to CCP would be awesome.

Great video & commentary. Nice timing to catch the abaddon fleet bridging in like that.

Alright, it is time to fess up who was responsible for the fittings.

That was me and I had a very short time window to get everything ready for a fleet of 70 people who were spending all day fixing defects for Crucible. I pretty much took top fits off Battleclinic and, in hindsight, I realize I was probably pulling off PvE fits without paying the proper amount of attention.

Still, we will learn from this and the next fleet will be much different Big smile


My condolences there, I keep telling the nubblets in my corp that most BattleClinic fits are from trolls looking for easy yet expensive kills. Maybe you should join my corp? :D

Big smile Maybe one day we introduce corpse skins. Although that would be kind of creepy What?

Maybe a glass coffin to show your trophies in your captain's quarters would be more fitting. Comes free with every dev corpse.

Thanks and GF to all was great fun.

Sorry Alice but if Ginger Dude has no skills and got on that many kills then " Primary the Navy Domi" is a smart move. Maybe roll a Navy Mega and be less conspicuous next time.

And did i read the kb right, CCP Dr Eyjog was in a Navy Raven ? The economist PvP's P

Very much looking forward to the next time you roll out.
