I had a stupid fun idea; What if I bought 10x of the Blood Raider Blueprint Crates from the extended reward track from the event and see what I could get. (Spoiler it went bad)

At the time of buying these they were selling for 2.5b each; but I thought F it why not! So I got myself a crate of beers to hype myself up; to make the bad/fun idea a reality..... Well turns out the drop rate is terrible lolz........ just sell them xD

The event in general is once again amazing, I especially loved the Class 1-3 sites which are pure gold! CCP if you're reading this I would love to see these sites in other events in a similar fashion but with a twist to change it up and make them different.

I have no video editing skills or any interest in learning how to do so, so please excuse the music and lack of visual or lack of sound effects. Regardless it was fun to do, the ISK was burning a hole in my pocket anyway.... That's pure copium talking right there lol.

Wish everyone better luck than I had o7

Is 12+ hours of d-scanning and bookmarking across 2 weeks to locate a single Large Secure Container worth it?

I don't fucking know but I hope the end result is funny enough to warrant the effort.

Remember, kids: No amount of "safety" and "expecting reasonable behavior from other humans" applies in EVE Online, the space-madness simulator!

So I picked blood raider side meaning I needed to do Tertrimon sites. Being in null sec and having limited access to this content (disappointing btw FC, this is my favourite event and you shafted null sec) I’m down to scanning sites.

The past two days, here are my results

Systems visited: 72 Signatures found: 85 Crimson harvest network nodes: 72 Tetrimon harvest network nodes: 13

So not only shafted due to limited combat sites, but I also chose “the wrong side” as barely any of the other sites spawn.

The whole event has been very lopsided and I hope next year they consider all player bases when cherrypicking where and who can complete the bar.

server is wilding right now. help, I'm drowning.

Hi, for the past year or so I've been building a battle report site, killmail.app. It's been up since March and people have mostly found it through word of mouth and Discord, or when it was featured on CCP's community post, but this is my first public post about it. In the 7 months or so, 50k visitors have found it and live viewers peaked at 266 when Asher said Goons were #1 titan feeders in 2026 and Snuff said "bet."

The front page shows a live feed of fights as well as recent ones with some easy filters. Good for checking out a brawl you know is popping off or if you're bored and wonder what's been happening. You can also search older battles with filters instead of digging through zKill which I found interesting to browse through. Creating battle reports works the same way as always: paste a zKill link, or a link from any of the other BR tools, or set it up manually (or go through the zKill related kills link, thank you Squizz). One of the recent-ish changes is support for multiple systems and time ranges.

The battle report itself has the usual features. By default it shows you the Composition tab which is similar to the classic br.evetools.org layout, but especially on live battles the Overview tab and kill feed give you a good sense of the fleets as you watch kills stream in. The main innovation was the timeline which shows fleet sizes and ISK lost over time and that you can scrub back and forth to see what the fleets looked like at a certain moment. Recently added timeline filters allow you to select specific ships or alliances on the graphs, so something like "how did the dread counts evolve over time" is easy to check.

The ISK value calculation is separate from zKill pricing, which I've put a lot of work into and it feels much more accurate especially on old battle reports. If you want to feel nostalgic go check one of them out. You can drag and drop participant rows to set up battle sides, the mobile experience has been polished and the site has overall been very reliable.

I've tried to keep it focused, it's meant to be a battle report site that's quick to read, not a Battle Dashboard Command Center with 100 different features. In the early days I was too stubborn on the Overview tab being superior and wanting to stand out, but I've come around on that. The Composition view is the default, the timeline stays collapsed until you open it. If you've tried the site before and hated the default view, give it another try.

In the spirit of keeping it clean, the Discord server is only linked on the front page. If you have any feedback or suggestions, come check it out.

AI disclosure: AI helped in the design of the front page of the app. The battle report was designed by me with help from an actual designer (thank you urns who also made the embed image), all of the code and this post were 100% written by a human.

I'm pretty new to EVE, joined a nice mining corp and I've been making some decent ISK so far.

Lately I've been kinda obsessed with the idea of getting an Astero and going into low/nullsec to look for relic and data sites.

Idk why but the thought of sneaking around dangerous space, trying to hack some containers while knowing someone could show up and kill me at any second sounds so fun to me. Even thinking about it gives me an adrenaline rush.

Problem is, I barely know anything about exploration.

How do you guys actually survive out there? Like how do you avoid gatecamps, hunters or getting caught while hacking? And most importantly, how the hell do you make it back home alive with all that loot?

Also feel free to share your expensive mistakes so I can hopefully avoid making the same ones

Any advice is appreciated, o7

Free to play typhoon fit for you ,I've rattled in most systems on free to play,with standard typhoon fit.16-18 mil tick.

For standard combat sites this fit can do a sanctum.

6 alablast cruise, 1 done range.

1 cap battery,1 cap recharge,2 shield amps,1 large shield booster cl5.

3 drone damage,4 ballistic

1 drone range rig,2 cap recharge rig

The ship is cap stable just turn on booster,warp to 70km drones go 75km

And sit there,if you start to take to much damage kite backwards

So what I'm really looking for a seeing what you guys fly is a van life ship that you could even potentially just stay out in j-space exploring and suggesting while hardly even having to dock back up occasionally probably just to sell off your data/relic site loot that you've hacked for. I'll also tell you what my main character can fly. I can fly the Astero, Stratios, Buzzard, Anathema, and Cheetah and interested in trying out the Helios as well. But what I would really like to do is be able to see when others are on d-scan while I'm cloaked is find out where they are and if they're most likely in a exploration frigate on their own that I can easily take on then I would love to be able to engage and take them on. My dream ship is a t3 cruiser Loki that I hope to eventually train my skills into and be able to fly and undock. So, overall what do you guys like using for a nomad explorer that could potentially engage and take on others?

Crimson Harvest event has been extended/more rewards added

I am mostly solo player, currently mostly on high sec doing soe l4 missions, and my focus will be pve for the upcoming months but not pvp

I am currently flying on a rattlesnake, with heavy missile , heavy drone and shield skills trained (but not cruise missile yet)

While on rattlesnake I start to feel bad for the delayed damage of missile and drones, not to mention I always overshoot missiles, driving the drones near and far, sometimes even get the drones killed

That’s why I want to try out something else, but I think i will still get it into a golem as the second marauder, just for its versatility and not to waste the skills I already owned

Given above, may I ask you experts opinion on whether I should get a paladin first or vargur? Assume what is invested into skill points is not considered here

I have read a lot of posts/ YouTube videos which some of those may be outdated, thank you guys.

After planning this for some time and some blender fixes, it is finally finished!

Ship: Moros Navy Issue
Type: Faction Dreadnought
Faction: Gallente Federation
Scale: 1/25000 (127.44 millimeters - 5.017 inches)

It's not just any ordinary Moros Navy Issue...

Hello!

I'm not a hardcore player, played in and out since 2016, my longest streak was 13 months in 2020 (22m sp). I rarely post here, and i just would like to talk to someone right now.

i keep seeing posts about eve updates, events, and i sincerely would like to be excited about them, but i do not feel the urge to join. and i finally understood why.

call it crimson harvest, call it haloween bloodbath, call it unicorn paradise, it is essentially your overview and loot every time. faction warfare? overview and loot. Abyssals? overview and loot. Pochven? Overviews and loot.

i mean, these events make no sense at all, waste of dev time in my opinion. It is fly-scan-hack-shoot, how is it different from lvl1 mission? Even ship designs do not matter because 90% of active gameplay you are zoomed away and only see icons. Skin system? Another skin system? undock and forget, they're not even on zkillboard to show.

if i was in the game i'd try to make it eventful for me - neat helping corp, or finding interesting things to do.

but selling same stuff with another label?

i don't even bother to read all that made-up garbage about empires and whatnot. not interesting, makes no sense in game.

thank you for reading. if you know a way i could change mindset, please share.

Bonus track https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sOnqjkJTMaA

I am looking for input from eve players on official CSM discord server to get players opinions on if they want/would pay for citadel skins that change the model of the upwell citadel structures. This would change the look instead of just applying a different pay to the structure itself. There are a ton of neat structure models in eve already and I think people would enjoy a new look.

The goal of these skins would be to maintain the same dimensions of the citadel structure(size of the structure itself and tether distances) but use models already existing in game to give it a new look.

But I want to provide that data to ccp so if you do not mind jumping onto the CSM discord https://discord.gg/bbbCBAu and you can give your thoughts and ideas on the subject.

I have attached several structure models already in the game that i think would be cool to see applied to citadel structures.

The holy doctrine in EVE that says if you’re not in comms 24/7, you’re basically a heretic. Apparently logging in isn’t enough, you must also sacrifice your peace and quiet to the great discord gods.

We’re ratting, mining, huffing, whatever and somehow the expectation is “Get in comms.”

Oh absolutely, let me drop everything so I can listen to Todd narrate his life story while I shoot rats, truly essential gameplay.

And the best part? Ask a simple question in corp chat something that could be answered with, you know, words and it’s crickets cause everyone is busy stroking eachother in vc and 45 minutes later when someone finally bothers to check ig its “Hop in comms” Yeah man, super convenient. For you.

Meanwhile I’m trying to talk to my actual family, not audition for the role of “Guy Who Breathes Loudly in Discord.” Then there’s the social hierarchy. If you’re not glued to comms like it’s a medical device keeping you alive, you’re never going to be able to anything other than exist. Forget about any sort of role where even only small bit of trust is required. Sorry I didn’t realize friendship required mandatory attendance in the church of voice chat. My bad for having a life.

Comms for PvP? Sure. Comms for PvE? Absolutely not, i don’t need a motivational speech to shoot npc or munch on rocks and watch local, I promise I can handle it with out sitting in comms.

And the whole “best ship is friendship” thing adorable. But why does friendship require me to sit in comms listening to someone’s keyboard clacking like they’re trying to speedrun a novel? We have in‑game chat. CCP put it there on purpose. Wild concept, I know.

Anyway, shoutout to the chill corps who understand that not everyone wants to be trapped in voice comms for every mundane activity. The rest of you can enjoy your 8 hour discord ted talks. I’ll be over here actually enjoying the game.

Anyone else locked out of industry completely with that unhelpful error message?

o7 capsuleers,

First, an apology. I haven't updated Neocom in about five years. A lot of you kept using it anyway. Some of you wrote to me, filed bug reports or asked whether it was dead, and I didn't give you much to go on. I'm sorry about that. You deserved better from the app and from me.

I spent last months rebuilding it, and today Neocom 3.0 is out for iPhone and iPad. It's a full rewrite in SwiftUI, built on the current ESI and the latest static data export.

To say thank you for sticking around, Neocom is now completely free. No subscriptions, no ads, no in-app purchases, no premium features to unlock. Everything in the app is available to everyone.

Thanks for flying with Neocom all these years. Fly safe.
