Three Large Core Defense Field extender rigs, a DC2, 1600mm rolled tungsten plates, two invul field 2s, two large shield extender 2s. End result 260,000 EHP. My answer to hulkageddon, and a hell of a lot better then that pilots 76k EHP.
who ever came up with hulkageddon shoudl be jettisoned with a life suit at the same time the star he is near is about to go supernova hulkageddon is a big excuse for the pvp rats with no skill to claim kill in high sec without concord intervereing
DCII and Reinforced Bulkheads and the Orca would have happily sat there watching while concord did their thing, then started nom nom nom'ing though some nice battleship salvage and loot.
I'm trying to fruck up the business of can flipping, therefore, while mining the good stuff for yourself, jettison only regular cans with junk in them, such as 1 unit of Veldspar per can. You want rat flippers to open them to discover their shit. If enough people do this, can flippers can bet on flipping junk cans at some point. There really is only one solution: never jettison to feed the rats, but profits take more time.
i think the real irony is that high sec miners arent the real threat to ore prices and isk generation in reality. And while these guys killed an orca with some t2 mods on it, they probably lost the same isk collective value in all thier battleships, which then need to be replaced. Off to hit up the miner bots to replace your battleships boys?
@kineticdeath Read the description. All fittings were loot (at least for me they were), despite that, we were a very rich corp with very rich members. Most of our corp members controlled the implant market doing level 5's in their motherships.
@benmols ohh my bad, 432m loss for the orca guy, did you guys kill the mining ships too, in case they were miner bots? lol. the orca had meta 4 shield extenders or faction? Still you guys should (if you dont already) go farm the hell out of miner bots! lol
@Selloutshort LOL YOU THINK 20 MILLION ISK IS A LOT... I don't think it possible to complete a lvl 5 mission solo and not make at least 50 mil. But one has to wonder if you can even pull 3's at this point, 20 mil is about what one makes from the bounty alone on lvl 4's... and you removed the original comment. Might as well have responded "You're right, I just created my toon 2 days before I posted, stupid noob is stupid." Would have pretty much said the same thing.
@Selloutshort wow, are you really this stupid? Originally I thought the posters comment bitching about other's comments was a bit over the top, but then I read your comment... and that it was from 2 weeks ago... How can you be so motivated to comment on this video and yet not even have a basic understanding of the game? You completely reveal a large amount of ignorance by 1.) being clueless about Hulkageddon, 2.) asserting that BS are expensive. You probably think one makes a lot on lvl 4's, lol
I'm tempted to put a ban on all people who are new to EvE commenting on this video. Their comments are getting quite irritating now.
This is what we call a "Suicide gank." It was done as part of the HulkaGeddon competition. We were a pirate corp that did this stuff for fun even when HulkaGeddon wasn't on. Please, if you have not been playing EvE for more than a year, please refrain from commenting, or at least THINK about your irrational unlettered comments. Regards,
@Selloutshort You're clearly new to EvE, or never been part of a proper pirate corp or even a large alliance. I'll leave you to vent your anger though. Good boy, let it out now.
@Selloutshort hahaha oh man. This is the best comment so far. 1. We didn't care about losing ships, we used to suicide carriers. We were a very rich corp. At the time, the insurance in EvE was strange, you could fully insure a ship, and with free fittings you would get MORE than the price of the ship back in insurance. So BC's would have infact made us lose money. So considering we did suicide ganks about 10 times a day would mean we were making money.
@Mrnentendoman I don't forget that part.... You can see Concord shooting us the second we warp in. And I would assume people watching this video already know that it's a SUICIDE gank. Since it says it's in high sec...
@Mrnentendoman Also, our corp was huge (I no longer play EvE). We had the biggest amount of capital and super capital ships for a corp of our size. We would have welcomed a corp gank, we played eve for PvP. We've been ganked and hot dropped a hundred times, we loved a good fight.
@LIFESaGAME247 It's an industrial capital ship, which is a glorified name for "carries lots of rocks". It doesn't have the systems to support guns powerful enough to defend it.
what's the first thing that warped in? the "Captain! Wtf is this!?" part. Is it a Typhoon? I got a little trouble recognising the silhouette. And I'm guessing you guys had a cloaky for a warpin. Which was the filmer.
Garbage in (rats in), garbage out (garbage cans out): continuously jettisoning 1 unit of velspar to leave behind garbage cans (dang appropriate name) , while mining for your own full shipboard load, has proven to be a nice payback for can flipper rats as evidenced by chat channels. Results: It works. Can flippers can be confused!
@knurlykneed If you really want to mess with can flipper, fit your hulk/orca out with some light tackle, just enough to hold them still until your combat ships warp in from a nearby safe spot. We've done this a few time when known flippers showed up and popped quite a few of the pricks.
Some people need to learn to spot the difference between a carebear and people who mine with alts while camping :)
@roywoodjr1 No, we don't control all of the Eve Universe. All of the biggest alliances in Eve do this, in fact, they don't target pathetic Orcas. They target freighters. they gank freighters. This is happens everyday in Eve. This video is not a one-off event. This happens A LOT. This is Eve. get used to it.
ccp have also said they dont inject large amounts of isk into the game to balance it out, they say and claim the games ecenomic structure mechanics balances the economy for them. i fully support these events if they are indeed used as intended and with less descrimination. i think ccp needs to take more care these things could drive legit players from the game and eve needs more players. more players = more money = a better game.
@wannos27 True eve players would rather see the back of these people! If you have an understanding of EvE then you wouldn't cry like a baby if your ship got ganked, if you do, then you can leave the game. It will be a better game for it!
ok so the event is aimed at giving the isk farmers and gold farmer in eve a devastateing blow so i have one question! what the hell are you doing when you decide to gank an orca ??? if im not mistaken that cannot mine and cannot contribute to the isk farming, also how the hell do you even know if the orca was a bot or isk farmer. your just a bunch of greifers at the end of the day. eve would be better off with less griefers than it would with less isk farmers.
@wannos27 First of all. That is not the point of Hulkageddon. Second of all the Orca is the vessel that the mining barges put their ore into. Third of all. There was various prizes given for the amount of Orcas killed in the whole event and also for the first Orca killmail of the event. Fourth and final point. We are not "Griefers" for that particular day we were gankers and pirates. A big part of EvE. Get over it.
@benmols its an event which ccp uses to bring stability to the eve economy and also delvier a blow to any third party ilegal isk farming ops in the game. thats exactly what ccp uses it for and sure they also use it as an event for the players to rack up some kills and rewards.. but the main reason is for what i said. ccp has also said this them selves. isk farming by thrid party companies in eve online is a big problem because the players buy isk illegally. it ruins the economy
@benmols ccp has said that these ships are always replaced, to do that these guys have to spend the isk they intend to sell to players for real money there for putting that isk back into the eve economy. its one of the things ccp uses to to keep market stability and it also helps to stop the increasing problem with thrid party gold farming businesses who trade ilegally with other companies interlectual data. problem is not all miner/indycap pilots are associated with this ilegal activity.
@wannos27 Haha wow... Can you give me some citation please. Of course CCP try to stop the macro miners and the effect they have on the economy. But they do not do it by running hulkageddon! And they do not replace ships that are legitimately ganked!!! People get haulers and freighters ganked every day. They do not replace them. Ridiculous remarks.
@benmols im not a miner or a indy cap pilot so i dont really have anything to get over, i just think its wrong that such an event should exist with its explicit intentions as it targets the innocent as well as the criminals in the game. not every one reads forums there fore not knowing about these so called events designed at reducing the amount of isk in running system. destroying these ships on mass means they need to and will be repurcased from the market putting the isk back into game cycle
@wannos27 I'll simply quote somebody else who commented on this video: "this is the reason you really should play this game. EVE is a hard unforgiving sandbox... make of it whatever you want to."
This is what EVE is about. You can do anything. It is lawless (To an extent). It's a sandbox. They don't have to read the forums about the event. People get ganked in their mining barges even when hulkageddon isn't on! It's what happens every day in eve.
See... this is why I don't take my orca to the belt. No my orca hugs the station. Sure you can still arty it to death but with 200+ ehp it will take about 15-20 battleships to pull it off ofcourse that is assuming I don't dock the moment you start trying to lock me. You could try bumping me off station but I watch for that and dock before impact.
You don't have to come and confess, we lookin for you. We gon' fiiind you, we gon'find you. So you can run and tell that, run and tell that, run and tell that, homeboy ho-ho-homeboy.
Where it gets rough, though, is when you get that first hulk, and you're down to 12 million ISK, you mine for maybe a day or so, and someone pops it. I was set back a month at least by this so-called "Hulkageddon" yesterday, and it was devastating in-game. Most people whose hulks get raped have ISK up the yin-yang, but in my case, it truly was a horrible setback. I'm over it, but I'm using a retriever for the next couple months, probably. My asking prices for minerals will be higher.
I'm a little nervous about calling undo attention to myself. I like to keep low-key in the game. I've been playing for about 8 1/2 months. I'm averaging about 10 million ISK per day, and I expect to have another hulk in just under a month. I got popped Friday night at 23:00 or so Eastern time in Ingbaener or something like that. (It is .05 space I believe) by an corp called Carebear Love or something. I'm not the type to spread hate mail, or flame mails, etc. That's pointless..
There's different kinds of people in the game, and some are just those types that dust folks. I had some high points. I was thrilled rolling my Hulk out, and mining so much ore without having to dock, etc. It's all part of the game. I'll get there again, I just wish I had more recourse than to be a helpless victim to 6 crazed, loot-thirsty thugs.
@dmorlan Well the best way to stop being ganked is to make concord or the police spawn in your belt. Create and alt, make them attack you / a can and then concord will spawn. Then you stand more of a chance when concord have already spawned.
1. EVE Rule#1 Dont fly anything you mind losing/cant replace
2. While it may not be true in your case or in the instance in this video, most miners are hardly aware Dscan exists. Unless you are in combat there is no reason for your Dscan not to be hot, what the hell else are you doing, with a proper anti-gank overview set + your eye on Local; Local goes +5 = something you should react to
3. You can ask a higher price for your minerals, gl with that
EVE Rule #1 is "fly only what you can afford to lose" - what you can afford to replace is another matter entirely. If you're living somewhere you like, what you can afford to lose to stay there is pretty much everything you have.
Not that I'm taking the Orca's side here. High sec's security is an illusion for any asset worth more than a noob-ship, and no opportunity for people to learn that should be missed. But that first rule's wording is important :P.
I strongly suspect the entire point of hulkageddon is to raise mineral prices and ORE ship prices on a regular schedule, resulting in large profits to whatever clever industrialist is ultimately behind this tradition. So by raising your mineral prices, you too are supporting hulkageddon :D
@karrakis Yea the irony is that when pvp players kill the miners like this and it causes the minneral prices to go up all of the stuff they use goes up in price some too.
@GanjaSaveTheWorld The reason I mentioned it being T1 fitted was because of the insurance system, we we're making money from it fitting with T1. Nothing to do with the damage. The amount of ships we used was ridiculous overkill for an orca gank.
And what would that do. They would have to sit there and watch you die.
And you can't tank concord after a while a bs. Shows up an does enough damage to 1 shot anything in the game (don't quote me on this it's just what I heard)
And even if you could you would get banned since avoiding a death by concord is one of the few things in the game that is not allowed.
Almost as good as the freighter suicide gank in high sec where it dropped some T3 stuff and get ready, yes it's true, T3 BPCs and one T3 BPO. Well worth the loss of a few T1 BSes. This is why people are now locking every hauler and frieghter undocking in sales hub systems--such as Jita. They're using their cargo scanner on you. They're [freighter ganks] going to be getting more and more popular.
@benmols i have seen somebody tank concord on another youtube video. they had a whole bunch of people with all support items on them. shield transfers, remote armor reps, heavy-light armor and shield bots
@MandarbJair i know that they would shoot you to but wouldnt they wait until the guy who caused them to shoot was killed first then go after the guys who had the repairs?
@lobbo232 It depends which part of high sec you are in. They have a smaller spawns and lower response time in 0.6 but in 1.0 they are faster and stronger.
@benmols Thing is though, at the moment, there is little to no risk involved with ganking a single craft, what's the worst that will happen, you have your ship blown while theirs survives? salvage and loot your ship, get another, re-insure, find a softer target.
The game is well balanced, everything has risk/reward, a lot of the time the risk involved is variable because it relies on other players, this doesn't, if someone can faction grind they can gank a lot of ships without recourse.
@Darthane Well the risk is that you loose your ship or that you dont even kill the target (Which happens a lot). But that is eve, their are rules but not overpowering rules, its a lawless universe. Concord isnt as strong as you think it is, thats what makes it a great game.
@bocrandall Of course it shouldnt. But dont expect CCP to make that change. They dont have a problem with this type of activity in Eve. They actually encourage it. All you can do is make sure YOU have insurance.
the Orca that was in this video was mine, and my other account was filling the Orca also was popped by the same gang. It was odd seeing my own ship getting popped from some one elses view. I do missions mostly now.
You know if you'd have put a DCII and a reinforced bulkhead II on that thing you would have been the one laughing. Seriously that ship can get over 200k ehp easy shield extender rigs and what I mentioned above and you'd have survived that.
@vukster You're wrong. 10BS's do not cost 1billion. All the fittings were FREE as we we're pirates and it was all loot. And the ships were fully insured which paid us MORE than the ships cost us to buy including the insurance cost. This was before they changed the way insurance worked.
lol hulkageddon i remeber that comp it was the day i got my first hulk I SAY MY FIRST !!!!!! lol and then 30 mins after being exited like a kid at xmas i saw the hulkgeddon comp pop up then i got popped shortly after that lol oh well if he's got money to spend on buying an orca then it's fair the first rule of eve is NEVER BUY WHAT YOU CARN'T AFFORD!!! remeber that kidds
Wow. I'm pretty sure that Orca pilot needed a new pair of pants. Funny video.
The moral of the story is don't fucking mine in something expensive during Hulkageddon. This type of thing RARELY happens otherwise in high-sec unless there are reasonable motives, such as corporate/alliance warfare or pirate action. Even so, this is EVE. Anything can happen anywhere. This is a game of risk management, opportunity and consequence.
And that's why nobody should be dumb enough to take out a 350million ISK industrial ship in the middle of Hulkageddon.
My only experience with a member of Quam Singulari was a limp-dick who called himself "Li Ter". Got his kicks trying to extort noob corps in hi-sec from the safety of his T2 fitted Raven, shooting at T1 frigs, cruisers and barges. Such a brave cock.
@TheNeognostic That's not really fair, most the miners I know didn't find out about Hulkageddon until AFTER their hulk was destroyed. Of course they're not going to keep up to date with pirate activities until it affects them, why would they? They know better now, and I doubt anyone who knows about it is going to take their miner out, all the miners I know are staying docked for at least a week or two, only the clueless people will.
@therealsnow Yeah I gues thats true, but we sit in the all the carebear channels and mission running channels. And they all warn constantly of Hulkageddon. But I gues not everybody sits in these channels.
@therealsnow If you watch me vids the system that we "Hulkageddon" in I personaly warned everybody in the system every day for a week prior to "Hulkageddon" start, I guess macro miner bots just arnt smart enough to read warnings!!. Go figure :*)
@therealsnow Thats not fair to say either, i was about a week into a hulk and i was aware of hulkageddon III.......a month and a half before it ACTUALLY happened and i'm a relative newbie myself
@therealsnow Any hisec miner who does not check forums on a daily basis to see if another hulkageddon is starting up should not fly anything bigger than a Retreiver

@renardthatch Don't read too much into the EHP..... A lot of the pilots we ganked had bigger tanks then that and we out ganked them.

@wannos27 First of all. That is not the point of Hulkageddon. Second of all the Orca is the vessel that the mining barges put their ore into. Third of all. There was various prizes given for the amount of Orcas killed in the whole event and also for the first Orca killmail of the event. Fourth and final point. We are not "Griefers" for that particular day we were gankers and pirates. A big part of EvE. Get over it.

@benmols its an event which ccp uses to bring stability to the eve economy and also delvier a blow to any third party ilegal isk farming ops in the game. thats exactly what ccp uses it for and sure they also use it as an event for the players to rack up some kills and rewards.. but the main reason is for what i said. ccp has also said this them selves. isk farming by thrid party companies in eve online is a big problem because the players buy isk illegally. it ruins the economy
wannos27 11 months ago
@wannos27 Hahaha you actually think CCP organises hulkageddon? Amazing. CCP has nothing to do with Hulkageddon.
benmols 11 months ago
@benmols ccp has said that these ships are always replaced, to do that these guys have to spend the isk they intend to sell to players for real money there for putting that isk back into the eve economy. its one of the things ccp uses to to keep market stability and it also helps to stop the increasing problem with thrid party gold farming businesses who trade ilegally with other companies interlectual data. problem is not all miner/indycap pilots are associated with this ilegal activity.
wannos27 11 months ago
@wannos27 Haha wow... Can you give me some citation please. Of course CCP try to stop the macro miners and the effect they have on the economy. But they do not do it by running hulkageddon! And they do not replace ships that are legitimately ganked!!! People get haulers and freighters ganked every day. They do not replace them. Ridiculous remarks.
benmols 11 months ago
@benmols im not a miner or a indy cap pilot so i dont really have anything to get over, i just think its wrong that such an event should exist with its explicit intentions as it targets the innocent as well as the criminals in the game. not every one reads forums there fore not knowing about these so called events designed at reducing the amount of isk in running system. destroying these ships on mass means they need to and will be repurcased from the market putting the isk back into game cycle

@wannos27 I'll simply quote somebody else who commented on this video: "this is the reason you really should play this game. EVE is a hard unforgiving sandbox... make of it whatever you want to."
This is what EVE is about. You can do anything. It is lawless (To an extent). It's a sandbox. They don't have to read the forums about the event. People get ganked in their mining barges even when hulkageddon isn't on! It's what happens every day in eve.

See... this is why I don't take my orca to the belt. No my orca hugs the station. Sure you can still arty it to death but with 200+ ehp it will take about 15-20 battleships to pull it off ofcourse that is assuming I don't dock the moment you start trying to lock me. You could try bumping me off station but I watch for that and dock before impact.

Where it gets rough, though, is when you get that first hulk, and you're down to 12 million ISK, you mine for maybe a day or so, and someone pops it. I was set back a month at least by this so-called "Hulkageddon" yesterday, and it was devastating in-game. Most people whose hulks get raped have ISK up the yin-yang, but in my case, it truly was a horrible setback. I'm over it, but I'm using a retriever for the next couple months, probably. My asking prices for minerals will be higher.

@benmols
I'm a little nervous about calling undo attention to myself. I like to keep low-key in the game. I've been playing for about 8 1/2 months. I'm averaging about 10 million ISK per day, and I expect to have another hulk in just under a month. I got popped Friday night at 23:00 or so Eastern time in Ingbaener or something like that. (It is .05 space I believe) by an corp called Carebear Love or something. I'm not the type to spread hate mail, or flame mails, etc. That's pointless..
dmorlan 1 year ago
There's different kinds of people in the game, and some are just those types that dust folks. I had some high points. I was thrilled rolling my Hulk out, and mining so much ore without having to dock, etc. It's all part of the game. I'll get there again, I just wish I had more recourse than to be a helpless victim to 6 crazed, loot-thirsty thugs.
dmorlan 1 year ago
@dmorlan Well the best way to stop being ganked is to make concord or the police spawn in your belt. Create and alt, make them attack you / a can and then concord will spawn. Then you stand more of a chance when concord have already spawned.

@dmorlan
1. EVE Rule#1 Dont fly anything you mind losing/cant replace
2. While it may not be true in your case or in the instance in this video, most miners are hardly aware Dscan exists. Unless you are in combat there is no reason for your Dscan not to be hot, what the hell else are you doing, with a proper anti-gank overview set + your eye on Local; Local goes +5 = something you should react to
3. You can ask a higher price for your minerals, gl with that
4. Active tank on anti-gank fit=fail
morningthaw 1 year ago
@morningthaw
EVE Rule #1 is "fly only what you can afford to lose" - what you can afford to replace is another matter entirely. If you're living somewhere you like, what you can afford to lose to stay there is pretty much everything you have.
Not that I'm taking the Orca's side here. High sec's security is an illusion for any asset worth more than a noob-ship, and no opportunity for people to learn that should be missed. But that first rule's wording is important :P.

I strongly suspect the entire point of hulkageddon is to raise mineral prices and ORE ship prices on a regular schedule, resulting in large profits to whatever clever industrialist is ultimately behind this tradition. So by raising your mineral prices, you too are supporting hulkageddon :D

@GanjaSaveTheWorld The reason I mentioned it being T1 fitted was because of the insurance system, we we're making money from it fitting with T1. Nothing to do with the damage. The amount of ships we used was ridiculous overkill for an orca gank.

And what would that do. They would have to sit there and watch you die.
And you can't tank concord after a while a bs. Shows up an does enough damage to 1 shot anything in the game (don't quote me on this it's just what I heard)
And even if you could you would get banned since avoiding a death by concord is one of the few things in the game that is not allowed.

Almost as good as the freighter suicide gank in high sec where it dropped some T3 stuff and get ready, yes it's true, T3 BPCs and one T3 BPO. Well worth the loss of a few T1 BSes. This is why people are now locking every hauler and frieghter undocking in sales hub systems--such as Jita. They're using their cargo scanner on you.

They need to balance the reward for the risk.
Darthane 1 year ago
@Darthane They don't need to balance the reward for the risk. This is what eve is about, its an unforgiving sandbox.
benmols 1 year ago
@benmols Thing is though, at the moment, there is little to no risk involved with ganking a single craft, what's the worst that will happen, you have your ship blown while theirs survives? salvage and loot your ship, get another, re-insure, find a softer target.
The game is well balanced, everything has risk/reward, a lot of the time the risk involved is variable because it relies on other players, this doesn't, if someone can faction grind they can gank a lot of ships without recourse.
Darthane 1 year ago
@Darthane Well the risk is that you loose your ship or that you dont even kill the target (Which happens a lot). But that is eve, their are rules but not overpowering rules, its a lawless universe. Concord isnt as strong as you think it is, thats what makes it a great game.
benmols 1 year ago
@bocrandall Of course it shouldnt. But dont expect CCP to make that change. They dont have a problem with this type of activity in Eve. They actually encourage it. All you can do is make sure YOU have insurance.

@vukster You're wrong. 10BS's do not cost 1billion. All the fittings were FREE as we we're pirates and it was all loot. And the ships were fully insured which paid us MORE than the ships cost us to buy including the insurance cost. This was before they changed the way insurance worked.
So, to reiterate. You're wrong.

Wow. I'm pretty sure that Orca pilot needed a new pair of pants. Funny video.
The moral of the story is don't fucking mine in something expensive during Hulkageddon. This type of thing RARELY happens otherwise in high-sec unless there are reasonable motives, such as corporate/alliance warfare or pirate action. Even so, this is EVE. Anything can happen anywhere. This is a game of risk management, opportunity and consequence.

And that's why nobody should be dumb enough to take out a 350million ISK industrial ship in the middle of Hulkageddon.

@TheNeognostic That's not really fair, most the miners I know didn't find out about Hulkageddon until AFTER their hulk was destroyed. Of course they're not going to keep up to date with pirate activities until it affects them, why would they? They know better now, and I doubt anyone who knows about it is going to take their miner out, all the miners I know are staying docked for at least a week or two, only the clueless people will.
