Review of the Week (youtube.co/talkinginstations)

11 Sunday – Weekend Report: How to survive in space: techniques, tips, tools and methodologies. How to leverage sites and locations to your advantage against larger foes. Suitonia and Rich’s perspective as hunters, Hateless and Katia Sae’s perspective as evaders.

12 Monday – Keepstar dies in a freighter wreck in tenerifis between Deepwater Hooligans and Pandemic Horde, Wrecking Crews Townhall meeting gets the Hy Wanto treatment throwing shade at RC. Former GS member turned NC recruit posted details of multiple dozens of supers he had smuggled out of 1DQ before getting caught and kicked. Init and Frat scrapped over an NPC Sotiyo that dropped a Komodo BPC

13 Tuesday – Patch Day – Landmarks in eve were added and iterated upon, Mark726 of Eve Travel gets his own Landmark in Mozzidit. Industry Blueprints were seeded to Tranquility, many were missed, there were some quantity errors to be corrected to. Player JBs are now included in autopilot routing and setting destinations. Native Mac client testing starts.

14 Wednesday – Fallout from asteroid belt removal – approx 14k removed (nerf to tobias officer rat farming in angel space), additional fixes to industry blueprints and offgrid fighter recall. CSM 16 Candidate Campaigns Start, why the CSM formed, what is required to become a CSM candidate. Some Q&A on the upcoming Indy changes

15 Thursday – TIS Newspaper and who is Adreland Deninard? Deep dive into one of our staffers here at TIS and how he tackles generating the TIS in game Newspaper. His thoughts on tackling propaganda and dealing with clashing perspectives and prioritisation of what makes it and what doesnt.

16 Friday – Providence Freeports being set abandoned and looted, Accusations being leveraged against RC. AoM and allies clean up some Invidia Goriae Comes structures, after the renters swap sides earlier on to help Imperium and their allies kill Legacy structures IGC drop capitals to even the fight but loose the majority

Interview with Gory Xander, a new player and Streamer to Eve Online.

17 Saturday – Jove Talks – Tiberus hosts part 2 of the independently produced Wormhole TedTalk-style Show published by TIS. Guests included the CEOs of Hard Knocks, Inner Hell and Exit Strategy and notable members from Ronin, Lazerhawks, Suddenly Carebears and Degenerate Depot

Euroshow:

Friday – CCPs london sci-fi action Shooter project has some serious competition from a new IP from Korean Developers Krafton Corp, Data breaches and how you can secure your data and login credentials better.

CCP Interviews

Meta Show – CCP Rattatti and CCP Swift on talking Industry, Ecosystem and Product discovery

Tackled the belt removal issue – belts are legacy material injection systems and CCP would like to phase them out eventually but didnt make the connection that they were being utilised in other mechanics.

CCP wants to move the Ecosystem into being a self sustaining model rather than requiring dev upkeep and downtime to generate more resources

Updates on the War so far

4 Keepstars Lost in delve since last Sundays show (delve – 31X-RE,7UTB-F,Q-02UL, fake querious – B-7DFU)

14 Imperium Keepstars left

5 located in 1DQ1-A:
The four located in the systems accessible via gates only by going through 1DQ1-A,8WA-Z6,5BTK-M,MO-GZ5,Y-OMTZ
The five located in Delve and accessible by gates without going through 1DQ1-A,3-DMQT,N-8YET,PS-94K,0-HDC8,PUIG-F

At the rate of sieging and Keepstar destruction, that is two weekends / End of April – beginning of May becoming plausible for the eventual start of the siege of 1dq1-a.

Astraeoskhan – Mining

The various forms of mining available to players.

SOP of mining in differing security space.
Typical fits for mining.
Min maxing vs survivability

Ore vs Ice vs Gas

Ninja Mining

Wormhole diving

Mining in mission deadspaces

How should players look to adapt to the industry changes

Wrap Up – The week ahead on TIS

Euro Show is starting their new schedule this week. The Euro show will now be on every Fridays going forward at 19:00 EVE

Quick toss over to MacCloud on why the change to one show per week

****Why AbleGamers? AbleGamers is a 501(c)3 charity that raises funds to help bring gaming to those with disabilities. Did you know there are over 46 million people with disabilities in the US alone? That’s a lot of folks who could use AbleGamers’ help. Especially in a global pandemic, with many also having compromised immune systems, gaming has been an outlet for many gamers. With funding, AbleGamers is able to create unique controllers which directly benefit those with disabilities. Additionally, they freely hand these out to gamers at no cost to them, allowing folks to quickly jump into gaming. They also advocate for more disability options within gaming, examples being difficulty settings, colorblind options, subtitles, and key binding remapping. They are a positive force in gaming!

We give you the tools to engage with your donors and raise more for your charity

Foxholers Resist Eviction

David Matterall — Mon, 07 Dec 2020 06:54:24 +0000

This week the Foxholers prevented Hole Control from evicting them, and created a new fleet concept in doing so. In war news, an Imperium Keepstar was stolen by NCdot, and two full constellations were flipped in Fountain as that reconquest begins. Initiative won’t be there to defend it because they deployed to Curse where they expect to put a hurting on Catch. That and much more on this episode of Talking in Stations.

Foxholers Defend Their Home

David Matterall — Thu, 03 Dec 2020 09:22:00 +0000

Foxholers are defending an eviction attempt in their home in J123345, against a larger corp, Hole Control.

In a recent battle Foxholers repelled the Hole Control’s Lechak fleet. Foxholers CEO, Ashley Traynor, credited the victory to using a rare module, target spectrum breaker, which worked well against Hole Control’s Triglavian battleships. These battleships are underpowered when they first apply damage, but as time goes by the damage ramps up. The longer a target fire upon, the higher the damage, but if the target lock interrupted, the damaged falls back down to minimal damage. This is why lock breaking is useful against Triglavian ships.

Battle Report: https://zkillboard.com/related/31001761/202012040000/

Here is a video of the battle:

An anonymous agent hired Hole Control for 50 Billion ISK to settle a score with Foxholers, but Foxholers are holding so far.

Triglavians Attack Stargates in Perimeter

David Matterall — Wed, 02 Dec 2020 08:40:00 +0000

Triglavians attacked pilots in Perimeter today, destroying their ships and podding them. Haulers were surprised as they lost cargo to the attacks. Groups of Triglavians will spawn around Pochven systems. Since Caldari was the worst of the four empires to defend their systems, their systems constitute a large share of the Pochven systems. This means Triglavian attacks will occur in and around Jita and other Caldari systems.

You can prepare yourself by increasing your standings with Triglavians. Triglavians won’t shoot anyone with positive standings.

Singularity Syndicate Eviction Attempt Underway

Tiberius — Wed, 02 Dec 2020 08:39:00 +0000

December 2, 2020

Hard Knocks Citizens, Lazerhawks, and Wormhole Society have begun the initial stages of the eviction process of J172502 which is currently controlled by Singularity Syndicate with a combined force of 150-200 pilots. The size of this fleet is expected to grow in the coming days. A source from Hard Knocks (HK) confirmed that this is indeed a “full eviction” of Singularity Syndicate. In wormhole space, “full evictions” are typically reserved for grudges either long or short between two groups or organizations or for lucrative financial purposes. This contrasts with the “content astrahus,” which is used to force a fight from another group and leave when the fight is complete. The source from HK did not wish to comment at this time on the reasoning behind this eviction.

Singularity Syndicate CEO Cyrus Kurush stated that they are in the “preparatory phase” for their defense and will be working diligently to run interference on the enemy coalition’s attempt to maintain hole control on two different static wormholes.

The final timer for Singularity Syndicate’s Fortizars are expected to be Saturday evening USTZ at approx 23:00 to 05:00 EvE time.

DBS and ESS Adjusted

David Matterall — Tue, 01 Dec 2020 08:42:00 +0000

The DBS and ESS have been adjusted to benefit null-sec ratters. The changes allow the ratting income to settle at a high rate (135%) and recover to that rate faster. The ceiling increased to 180%. Plundering the ESS is more challenging; now you only have a 2-hour window to raid, it takes longer to hack, and you cannot cloak within 150 km of the ESS

Dynamic Bounties System (DBS) parameters adjustments:
Equilibrium value increased from 115% to 135%
The maximum output of the DBS increased from 150% to 180%
The recover to equilibrium rate for states below the equilibrium value has been increased, making it easier for systems to recover.

Encounter Surveillance System (ESS) parameters adjustments:
The time required to hack the main bank increased from 5 minutes to 6 minutes and 30 seconds
The auto payment timer reduced from 3 to 2 hours
The radius from the ESS where Cloaking is restricted increased from 75 km to 150 km. All other effects remain at a 75 km radius.

Likely the changes were a swift reaction to a drop in overall participation among the ratting players. Instead of letting the players languish, Devs moved quickly to entice null ratters. Many ratters shifted to high-sec missions for the loyalty points (LP).

Then a day later a change to drop rates for Triglavian Sublight Telemeter was announced. This will increase availability of EdenComm equipment.

One undocumented change that went live with yesterday's update has now been added to the patch notes:

Balance:
– Increased the average drop rates for the Triglavian Sublight Telemeterhttps://t.co/QYoTQfH8tn #EVEOnline #tweetfleet

Keepstar Stolen in Delve

David Matterall — Tue, 01 Dec 2020 07:43:33 +0000

NCdot FC Pittsburg2989 captured a unanchored Goonswarm structure in K-6K, that belonged to Goonswarm. He wrote:

“Props to the crew. Bob was FC, Joey Zahm told us it unanchored, Tar gave up a freighter, and Tits flew the fastest freighter in the South. I just was a cyno, DPS, and some loot rorqs. Thanks for the Christmas present though mittens/asher.”

Imperium leaders stated the Keepstar came out a week earlier than expected. The working theory is there was a foul-up resetting the cycle on the unanchor timer, a common tactic to throw off waiting bandits. Goonswarm officials are investigating what went wrong.

The Keepstar capture punctuates a series of structure takedowns in Delve. At the beginning of the war, estimates put the number of Imperium structures at 3,000. Two months ago, that estimate fell to 2,200. A few weeks ago, it was 1,800, and recent estimates number around 1,600. Some structures are being stripped of their fittings and left without fuel, causing them to fall into an abandoned state. This state creates opportunities to destroy and loot the structures.

Expensive Nyx Destroyed in Tenerifis

David Matterall — Sun, 29 Nov 2020 06:05:13 +0000

Odin’s Call killed a Nyx worth 67 Billion in JK-Q77, Tenerifis. The officer-fit Nyx joined a fleet it shouldn’t have and was fleet warped to the sun, where a fleet of Ikitursas seared through its armor tank. Loot tallying over 31.4 billion dropped, including a Unit F-435454’s Modified Drone Damage Amplifier and a Unit W-634’s Modified Fighter Support Unit.

The victim was Shakira Mebarak from Pension fund corp in the Siberian Squads alliance. This is believed to be the most expensive Nyx kill of the year.

The following is a recording of the event.

Mining crews in Heimatar agree to ceasefire

David Matterall — Sun, 29 Nov 2020 05:11:19 +0000

Alliances of DamFam and Malicious Mineral Hounds (MMH ) came to a diplomatic agreement in Abudban. DamFam won’t get in the way of MMH ganking other groups, and MMH won’t bother them in the Abudban Ice Belts. DamFam unsuccessfully negotiated for the compact to extend to all miners in the area. These are the terms of the agreement with MMH:

MMH will not grief (bump, gank, hassle) DF or UNITY pilots in Abudban, Alakgur, Dammalin, Olfeim, or Bosboger.
In return, we will do the same.
DF will not hinder or get in the way of MMH’s griefing and ganking of others in any of these systems, and we will not kill any of their ships that are ganking others (this includes whoring on the kills).
DF members will not engage in local chatter with MMH.

This agreement means killing any MMH pilot in the systems listed (Abudban, Alakgur, Dammalin, Olfeim, or Bosboger) while the pilot is mining is PROHIBITED.

PAPI Rev and Lev down in T5Z

Gergoran Moussou — Fri, 27 Nov 2020 09:02:07 +0000

PenifSMASH, CEO of ElitistOps and renowned whaling FC, had been watching a Pandemic Legion member use his Revenant to kill small ships as they were coming in to pop the cynos on the PAPI Keepstar in T5Z. He warned the pilot that this would eventually get his ship killed, and put together a plan to do so. After a few days, an awox alt character in Pandemic Horde undocked a Devoter to tackle the Revenant while he was aggressed, and a cyno brought in dreadnoughts and neuting Apostles. While PAPI was scrambling to respond to this, a TEST member undocked his Leviathan and started firing his doomsday in an attempt to clear off dreads. The dreadbomb managed to destroy the Revenant and this Leviathan before PAPI triage could save them, but the dreadnought and titan fleets in the Keepstar destroyed the dreadbomb. This sort of operation is always a suicide mission, so losing dreadnoughts is not a huge loss, and the officer-fit Revenant alone is worth more than the entire Imperium fleet which dropped on it, so this is a clear victory for the Imperium. Roughly 25 hours before the kill, the Revenant pilot had taunted the Imperium in Local about how they had been feeding.

Here is a video with excellent sounds (and some profanity) courtesy of Soulheel / Kion Valiant

This is the second time that ElitistOps has orchestrated a Revenant kill in Delve. The last time, a bit more than a week less than four years earlier, they were part of Pandemic Legion when they killed a Goonswarm Revenant in D-W belonging to Jay Amazingness.

This third Revenant being killed in Delve means that Delve is now the region where the most Revenants have been killed, after having previously been tied with several other regions: Placid, The Forge, Derelik, Providence, and Molden Heath, as well as making Pandemic Legion the first alliance to lose four Revenants.

Ushra’khan turns 16 years old

David Matterall — Thu, 26 Nov 2020 09:07:10 +0000

Ushra’khan (UNITY) turns 16 years old, the oldest living alliance in EVE. It was founded on 2004-11-25, when alliance were first permitted. UNITY is part of eternal struggle between the Minmatar and Amarrain empires, and many UNITY players role play as Minmatar. A history of the alliance can be found on the Backstage Lore wiki.

Their Amarrian rivals, Curatores Veritatis Alliance (CVA), is a two days younger, but CVA’s founding corp, The Legion of Spoon (TLOS), is the oldest living corp in EVE. TLOS are strict and only allow Amarrian characters to join. The corp only flies Amarrian ships.

Dysfunctionals corp Kicked from Goonswarm, sells Fort to PL

David Matterall — Thu, 26 Nov 2020 08:35:23 +0000

Vily, leader of TEST, post that The Dysfunctionals corp was kicked from Goonswarm today. The Dysfunctionals held the fortizar in Y-2 that The Initiative was evacuating through on their way to mid-Fountain. Upset by the kick, the corp sold the fortizar to Pandemic legion. DJ Aldard, one of the main FCs of Pandemic Legion and CEO of the corporation Collapsed Out, bought the Fortizar.

The Dysfunctionals claim that they had initially offered to sell it to more Imperium-friendly owners. According to someone on Reddit claiming to be one of their directors*, they had decided that they needed to leave Goonswarm to bring life back into the corporation, and they knew that they were doing things in a way would get them kicked.

The Initiative had moved a lot of their assets through Aridia instead of taking the ZXB regional gate into Fountain, so they are not crippled by losing access to whatever assets are locked in this Fortizar. They must asset safety their ships and gear to an alternative structure in Y-2.

Goons give Init the shaft…. Again. from Eve

*Note from Sunflier, Lord of Worlds Alliance

There are a lot of rumors flying around, so I’m going to post the DYS perspective. You can think of it what you want.

DYS has limped along for a long time now. Our old CEO basically hobbled me at every turn when I wanted to do things to grow the corp. We were bleeding members, and then the war started. As of time of writing, we were down to ~20 active people across multiple time zones. This essentially made our peak hours cap out at like 5 people. This wasn’t viable as a corp, and we basically subsisted on momentum of very very active people.

The war progressed and Goons were holding out, but DYS couldn’t get new members. Then the first Keepstar went down. Then Goons started tethering up while bad guys achieved objectives because of drastic out-forming. I don’t mean iHubs, that’s just the back and forth. I mean they killed Keepstars. They put down an uncontested Keepstar in t5z. Goons held up in E3, but this wasn’t going to be sustainable because something will go wrong eventually (the nature of a siege is that the defenders have to be perfect every time where the lopsided attackers only have to get lucky once). There were rumblings of how it seemed Goonswarm was trying to lose the war as fast as possible. Someone high up even raised the specter of war bonds. People were looking around nervously and messaging me about what the plan was. Everything looked like Goonswarm was preparing for a last-stand blowout, and then be a Snuffed Out on steroids.

Directorship and I didn’t want members to get screwed in the transition when trying sell their supers in a fire-sale the size of Goonswarm. Especially when there is a Keepstar right in front of the low-sec station where Delve’s asset safety goes. We wanted to at least offer a lifeline to people who wanted it.

So, we came up with the Ascended Refugees (“AR”). Think of it like a decision tree. Decision 1: We do nothing, and everyone eats it. Decision 2: We form AR, reach out to people, and maybe some people eat it but others don’t; and the longer we go the fewer people get screwed while also giving people informed decisions. Option 3: Disband, merge around, and everyone hope for the best on their own. However, you ultimately end up with the same result as 1. PorkCleaner and I went with Option 2 because it seemed like the best shot to do the best for the most people, and even if things go tits up, the line members would get gobbled up by other Goon corps. We’re planning to build AR into a big corporation and do a lot more stuff for the line members.

We started the evacuation with directorship because we knew we’d get commissar-ed for even doing this. Then we reached out to our members with big stuff first because they were most at risk. We did this for a few weeks. Some decided that they were going to go down with the ship. Others were leaning more towards moving into a wormhole, their true passion in Eve. Some were going to, and have now, merged with other Imperium groups. Then we were going to get to the last few line members and do a mass evacuate of small stuff. But, that stuff would easily sell and cash is easy to move.

We got found out after we got through the big stuff out for who wanted out but before we could break the news to like the last few people. I’ve had my roles dropped for a while. I do not regret doing this because I did feel my obligation was to members.

There are a few regrets that I do have. For one, I loved being a Goon. The real Delve was the friends I made along the way, and it sucks to leave that behind. For two, I wish I could have had til Friday to get to the rest of the members. Finally, I really wish I had a better chance to say goodbye. We originally planned to tell everyone and write a “Goodbye Goonswarm” letter.

I’ll miss my real Delve, but time to move on.

Explosive Velocity Update

David Matterall — Thu, 26 Nov 2020 08:09:39 +0000

Devs improved torpedos and slightly nerfed the stealth bomber. Caldari dreadnought Phoenix improved too.

Phoenix received a CPU and Power Grid increase and a significant improvement to its principal weapon systems, the XL torpedoes. The torpedos gain speed and range and do more damage. The Phoenix was already useful in wormholes and against Force Auxiliaries (FAX) with active tanks. The dread is also good with (High Angle Weaponaly) HAWs, which benefited from another buff. All other Torpedos have increased range, speed, and applied damage. Other ships that will benefit from the Torpedo improvements are Caldari and Minmatar battleships and the Barghest, which is especially good at level 5 and 6 abyssals.

The useless Griffin Navy Issue (GNI) had its drone bay increased, among other things. The verdict is out on their new utility. Early reports are the GNI not improved, but the creative players may find a niche for it.

Stealth bombers have a range increase but less application of damage.

One server improvement will improve the stability of damage-over-time in laggy fights. The improvement appears to be related to the Boson trap fail in FWST-8. The Imperium surrounded NC/PL supercarriers with 18 Titans and all fired Boson Doomsdays to create a death zone. The supercarriers survived due to the server failing to record damage. CCP has not claimed the there was an error, but this fix’s language is highly specific.

PAPI stages in T5ZI-S

David Matterall — Tue, 24 Nov 2020 07:41:13 +0000

TEST’s Keepstar in T5ZI-S onlined on Saturday without an Imperium attack to block it. Instead, the Imperium fleets blockaded the adjoining gate from the 1DQ1-A side to prevent any invasion fleets from entering their capital system.

PAPI ordered all fleets to restage from their current base in YZ9-F6 to the new keepstar. During the massive move fleets, a Ragnorok warped to a gate by mistake was quickly destroyed by an Imperium dread-bomb. TEST dropped Titans to counter the dreads.

Gobbins Address

Gobbins intended to do a town hall to some war announcements and answer questions if the Keepstar went uncontested. He postponed this to another time and posted the statements via Discord text.

The Great Seige of 1DQ: Now that Horde is one gate out from 1DQ, the alliance’s primary symbolic objective is the faction Fortizars from Sort Dragon’s surrender deal.* Gobbins said that after taking 1DQ and everything else outside of the “Helm’s Deep” pocket with E3OI at its entrance, the alliance would determine whether its members want to continue in the war.

The Second Rinsing of Fountain: Horde members are encouraged to roam Fountain and harass ratting efforts to make it more difficult for the Imperium to rebuild what Horde destroyed in Fountain.

The Initiative reported moving stockpiles of capital hulls out of Delve through Aridia. Fax cash and rorquals.

WAFFLES hits Deepwater Hooligans R64 moon

Gergoran Moussou — Tue, 24 Nov 2020 06:30:47 +0000

WAFFLES reinforced an R64 moon belonging to Deepwater Hooligans. Because they expected a large batphone for the hull timer, they sought out allies of their own. Finding no allies in the Syndicate area who committed to help on the timer, they arranged for a Rekking Crew Tengu fleet (AB/HML/ECM Tengus are one of the signature fleet doctrines of TheLastSparton, the FC who led the victorious team in the Alliance Open a day later) to back them up. In addition to Deepwater’s Machariel fleet, Nullsechnaya Sholupen had a Rattlesnake fleet ready to defend the structure. Along with the subcapital fleets, which were triaged battleships for both sides (along with the Tengu fleet with triage support from WAFFLES), both sides committed dreadnoughts to the fight. During the fight, Triumvirate decided to show up and bring a Machariel fleet and dreadnoughts in order to back up the WAFFLES/RC side, which was outnumbered until TRI decided to third-party on their side. Because the two sides were too busy shooting each other to shoot the structure, it ended up repairing.

Meanwhile in Syndicate from Eve

Killerbean83 Literally Triggered

AAR: R64 timer came out, RC & co arrived early since most of people were tied up in EVE-NT or the Delve keepstar drop from TEST. Sparton finished his matches so we farmed to 3rd party and we unironically ran out of ammo near the end of the fight, Currently travelling home after a 2h fight, and 2 fleets before that. 5h of fleets under 3 FCs. Loving it.

Az0r_au Fedo AAR from TRI/V0lta/Sedit perspective:

We got into system to find the Athanor at ~50% with Deepwater tethered/docked and a small Waffles phoon fleet shooting the athanor. Deepwater warped in their machs to the phoons and both sides dropping FAX for logistics. A few seconds later NSH cyno goes up at 0 and they bridge in Rattles+triage. We quickly realize this is going to be a brutal blobbing of the phoons and offer an alliance.

We warp in on the Deepwater machs and drop two triage of our own as the rattles are nuking machs very fast. NSH immediately responds with a very large wave of about 30 dreads on top of our fax while waffles valiantly attempts to counter escalate with dreads of their own at 0. Our fax obviously evaporate and our subcaps ping off to assess the situation losing all our bhalls and info links in the process.

The fight looks lost at this point with the rattles holding grid, but some of NSH dreads are bumping decently hard and we decide to pick off what we can with subcaps. As more and more NSH dreads are bumping out of range of the rattles we decide to drop dreads around 50-70km from hostile dreads and slowly chip away at the hostile caps. With the AB rattles unable to leave their fax that are stuck in bubbles 200km from our dreads and machs and Waffles dropping the last of their dreads with ours we actually manage to turn the cap fight into our favour.

With the hostile dreads dealt with we are able to kill most of the fax supporting the remaining subcaps and swoop in to delete the rattles, but quick thinking from NSH as they drop a fresh round of triage out of range of our dreads and are able to tank vs us again. At this point we attempt to extract any remaining friendly dreads on field to a midpoint athanor which somehow bugs out and doesn’t tether our dreads (see /u/ben3wallace post) and UFC decides to drop a handful of unsupported caps on us next door in M2-C which is a nice little desert after the main course.

“TEST is NEXT… Door”

November 20, 2020

TEST Alliance Please Ignore anchored a Keepstar in T5Z on the gate grid facing 1DQ. This Keepstar will be the second in Delve for PAPI, and the first in sov held Delve. The Imperium has not yet revealed if they will oppose the onlining, starting in a few hours. Mittani’s chant, “TEST is Next,” referring to TEST being targeted as the next hell war effort was answered with PAPI propaganda “TEST is NEXT… Door.”

Hello Neighbor from Eve

PanFam stealth bomber fleets killed a Hel caught ratting in the Imperium’s “Helms Deep” staging of E3OI. This raid was feasible because bombers use covert cynos to pass system jammers.

Phoenix Naval Systems (PNS) and Electus Matari destroyed Golems working a World Ark site in Pochven. The ambushers killed most of the Golems on the spot, but some managed to warp to a safe spot. Thanks to pre-scouting by Na’av from PNS, the safe spot was known and bookmarked. The ambushers pursued and destroyed the remaining Golems at the safe spot.

Polish wormhole corporation Bean-shidh destroyed an abandoned POS in J140741, a C1 side door, which included an old Rorqual holding 42 billion ISK in blueprints and equipment. Bean-shidh assailed the capital industrial ship, which dropped 17 billion in loot after exploding.

Japanese language localization will begin on December 8th. You will read and write Japanese in chat if desired. Caladrius is a Japanese alliance, and at least one corp in the Korean alliance, Siege Green, is Japanese. More localizations to come.

Alliance Tournament
The EVE NT Alliance Open continues this weekend at 15:00. There have been quite a few upsets and some close matches, including a lone Brave Collective Griffin fighting off an Etana. If you see the AT live, you can vote on the matches’ outcome and win some SKINs. The best-of-5 Grand Finals will be Sunday, just after the TIS Weekend show.

Abyssal proving grounds start now and will continue through the 24th— the matches consist of 2v2 Tactical Destroyers. CCP recently revised this feature to curb cheating. If you want to participate, have your Proving Filaments ready, either from Abyssal Deadspace loot drops or from the in-game market.

October Economic Report

David Matterall — Fri, 20 Nov 2020 05:12:55 +0000

November 19, 2020

The Monthly Economic Report (MER) for October showed Delve destruction numbers were up considerably, as expected. October marked fierce fighting in the war, principally the Keepstar battles in NPC Delve. The report also confirmed the mining rates in the four empires are higher than anywhere else. Null sec mining was only visible in Oasa, where Fraternity has vigilant defensive fleets.

Fraternity leader Noraus showed a graph and said his group’s ratting yields were down 50% in recent days.

Graph: Fraternity Daily Ratting Tax Income

Graph: Fraternity Accumulated Ratting Tax Income

A tally of combatants in the Delve war zone confirms PAPI fighting Imperium with a 2.31:1 advantage among active pilots. In the last 7 days, Imperium had 5,966 pilots to PAPI’s 13,318. Activity levels were the same for both sides, averaging over 11%. Standouts for activity were Northern Coalition with 19.65% activity, equating to 738 pilots. Full report created from dotlan and zkillboard.

War Report

War Report

PAPI destroyed eleven more infrastructure hubs (iHub) in Delve and Fake Querious*, including the entire SPNZ-Z constellation, which contains the former Imperium capital fleet staging of D-W7F0. The assault stopped one system short of 1DQ1-A, the designated capital system of the Goonswarm.

Delve Map: PAPI takes 11 iHubs

Imperium fought outnumbered and achieved their objective in K-6K16 by destroying the PAPI iHub, resetting the strategic index, delaying a cyno-jammer placement. A cyno-jammer would spell doom for the Imperium Keepstar in K-6K16.

As Imperium took up a stronghold position in northern Delve, PAPI targeted valuable structures in the south, destroying a ‘Prometheus’ Fortizar with M1R Outpost Rig in 48I1-X, Period Basis, and a second Prometheus in J-LPX7, Delve.

Imperium and allies counterstrike in Esoteria. The Bastion, The Initiative, and Stain-Russian alliances fought in Esoteria. Ferrata Victrix, Red Alliance, AAA, Afterlife destroyed an Army of Mango Abbadon fleet in 0-O6XF.

FAYN Industries, former Imperium renter corporation, loses titan to Triumvirate in Outer Ring. FAYN Industries was a renter from both Initiative Associates and Infensus.

Correction – Trigger Happy does not own a Keepstar. Their CEO faked a screenshot and passed it off as real to get Pandafam to react.

*Fake Quarious is the part of Quarious that overlaps the center of Delve.

EVE Portal II App

CCP fully opens up the EVE Portal to Alpha accounts and expands the pilot services trading function to include skill injectors in addition to PLEX. Vily, the executor of the Tranquility Trading Consortium (TTC) and one of the leaders of Test Alliance Please Ignore, says that he doesn’t expect skill injector trading to move from TTC’s Keepstar in Perimeter to Jita 4-4 despite the apps ability to access the Jita market directly. PLEX and skill injectors are a large part of TTC’s trades tax income.

Delve prepares for a major offensive, with multiple timers during EUTZ, including the Infrastructure Hub of D-W7F0, the Imperium’s primary capital/supercapital staging system they moved to the “Helm’s Deep” of E3OI-U. PAPI destroyed a Sotiyo and Tatara in NOL-M9, along with a second Sotiyo in D-3GIQ.

Trigger Happy owns a Keepstar in Venal now.* Alliance executor Zesty posted a screenshot in TiS Discord. Location is HD-JVQ, the regional gate system to Drone Regions (Perrigen Falls). After Zesty posted leaks of Fraternity announcing they would move heavy-assets to Venal to retaliate against TRIGG’s attacks on PanFam/WinterCo non-deployed positions.

Ser Qwaez / Murray Rothbardo wrote an essay on how the Dynamic Bounty System works and found that the most effective way to keep the multiplier high is by generating below 500m worth of bounties a day before switching to a different system to rat.

*The Trigger Happy story turned out to be false. The image shown by Zesty was captured on the SISI test server.

TEST to Move to Delve Post-War

Gergoran Moussou — Tue, 17 Nov 2020 07:09:37 +0000

November 16, 2020

Test Alliance Please Ignore announces plans to move to Delve after the war ends. It will scale down operations in Esoteria, giving industry operations time to finish up and move. Imperium main FC Asher Elias says that he would expect that move from TEST. After how the war has affected Delve, Imperium would move to a different region even if they ended up winning, but if they lose, they will likely stay around longer to harass TEST as they move in to Delve.

After the Imperium moved their capital staging to the “Helm’s Deep”* of E3OI-U, the invading coalition made multiple attempts to take the infrastructure hub of the previous capital staging system of D-W7F0 and the rest of the constellation, resulting in some fights last week. The most recent reinforcement was today, for a timer during early EUTZ Wednesday.

Newly-reformed Inner Hell evicts farm hole owned by Lazerhawks alt alliance Rainbow Knights. This reportedly does not go against the usual understanding between INHE, HAWKS, and Hard Knocks because abandoned farm holes are considered acceptable targets.

Hard Knocks drops an Astrahus in the system held by EVE University’s Wormhole Campus, resulting in over 45 billion ISK destroyed between a Hard Knocks/Lazerhawks Sleipnir fleet and an E-Uni Ferox fleet with assistance from a WAFFLES Sacrilege fleet.

Dragons of Yggdrassil reportedly reset by Legacy after allowing Dreadbomb. to anchor structures in their space while Dreadbomb. has been hostile to Legacy.

Traitor Disbands Requiem Eternal

David Matterall — Sat, 14 Nov 2020 07:21:39 +0000

A traitor disbanded Legacy Coalition’s Requiem Eternal. A Req member gained access to the executor corp and hit the disband buttons, flipping a Moreau fortizar over to Goonswarm before making off with 300-400 billion in supplies. The event caused 50 systems to drop, mostly in Omist and Tenerifis. Legacy Coalition re-anchored most iHubs in less than 4 hours. This incident was reminiscent of the Nulli sov drop during the Fountain War during the Dominion era, where N3 and PL reconquered the same area in 24 hrs. The rapid reconquest after a significant sov drop is rare and impressive.

The Imperium lost FC Joey Zahm to Original Sinners corp in NCdot. Joey was visible in an NCdot fleet that killed a Wyvern in 1DQ. The supercap pilot joined a fleet that warped him out to an ambush point. The waiting dreads made short work of it. Reveka. corp used the same trick on AoM yesterday, netting a Nyx. In addition to Joey leaving the Imperium, his corporation, ChemiKals corp, left Goonswarm. NCdot also lost a corp, Remember The Fallen.

Snuffed Out battled it out with Ushra’Khan (UK) over a fortizar in Dal, Heimatar. Alliances from the Recking Crew assisted UK. The Recking Crew and Snuffed Out are enemies, and this rivalry has made for strange bedfellows, such as Snuffed Out and Provi Bloc fighting Recking Crew and Ushra’Khan.

The elite wormhole group Inner Hell has reformed after taking some time off.

Fraternity capital ships moved to Venal. Their target appears to be the Trigger Happy alliance of Tribute.

Imperium Keepstar down in 49-U6U

David Matterall — Fri, 13 Nov 2020 07:18:37 +0000

November 12, 2020

Keepstar went down in 49-U6U belonging to Imperium. PAPI forces sank it with a more that 120 supercapitals. The entire system was cyno-jammed. Imperium did not attempt to save it. Additionally, an Azbel in 6Z-CKS Delve worth over 50 billion. The next two days will see major fighting over ihubs as 23 are reinforced, with an even split between Imperium and PAPI ownership.

Goorswarm’s 49U Keepstar final moments

Snuffed Out leader Hy Wanto spread false rumors that his alliance had purchased the freeport Keepstar in Basgerin. The current owners, Sixth Empire, denied the claim. Hy Wanto made no further comment on the matter. A Kronos Marauder worth 24 billion was destroyed in Uedama. The ship was fitted with rare modules. The Setele’s Modified Damage Control unit was worth 16 billion alone.
