Silent killers - Wormhole bounty

This is what makes every explorers hairs stand up on the back of their necks, knowing that not a single site in the system has been touched and each can they hack could be their last.

Cloaky PvP is an art form, respected, feared and hated throughout New Eden. It requires skill, meticulous planning and patience. Lots and lots of patience, and that needs a certain kind of capsuleer. Are you devious enough to be a silent killer?

Requirements:

A solo kill with a value in excess of 100m using any purpose made covert ops ship, including force recon.

Must be in j-space.

Imicus/heron kills etc won't be counted unless they have at least 200m in loot. Anyone can kill a defenceless explorer but really juicy ones, are a lot rarer.

VERIFICATION

Video submission of the kill which also shows the in-game killmail & link to the KB.

  • Your in-game action bounty idea, clearly explained

    In game image / video of you flying 2 of the 4 most basic ship classes in combat - frigate, destroyer, cruiser, & battleship - must be PVP.

  • How the winning entries would be verified

    Link images on socials, with HUD on + off, recordings are acceptable, and killmails are expected.

    If you "won" your fight, say what went well and what could have gone better.

    if you lost your fight, say what went well and what could have gone better.

    The idea of this bounty is to get people undocked and engaging in PVP.

    Bonus points if you use fancy custom skins!

I was coming over to recommend the same thing. Record a kill in each ship class. We could make this even more interesting if we stuck to threads, for example only Caldari ships or Pirate ships.

Now I have to think of something else. :)

FUN INC's avatar

OOOh - i like that - get a kill in each racial ship class! that is a long haul project!!! <3

Hey FUN INC - cool idea; it's awarded! Could you say more about why you'd want kills in two of the four basic ship classes? I.e. why two? Why not one, three, or four? Cheers!

FUN INC's avatar

I thought 4 initially, but i then thought that it could be restrictive to people because of the risk associated with PVP, and also skillpoint barrier to entry. Limiting it to x2, also allows newer players (who may not be able to fly all the classes yet) a chance at entering, but also allows more experienced pilots the option to go small (frig dessie), or go big (cruiser BS) ;)

Alex Sinclair's avatar

Thanks for clarifying, much appreciated!

FUN INC's avatar

no problem - I'll try to add alittle bit more meat on the bones next time! :D

    Carebears with Teeth - score a PvP victory using a non-PvP ship to defeat a PvP ship in combat. For example, use a Mining Ship to bring down a Vexor. The more creative and outrageous the better.

Simply share the resulting killmail with us. Only the two ships (and potential NPCs) can be on the killmail.

Breaking Bad Challenge: Blue Pill Boosters

Time to flood New Eden with the best boosters: Blue Pills! Your mission is to steal the inefficient Guristas' formulas, improve the boosters, and sell them in Jita.

How to Participate:

  • Explore: Navigate Guristas' space and find one of their hidden laboratories.

  • Steal: Once you find the lab, loot their booster formulas.

  • Manufacture: Use these formulas to create enhanced Blue Pill Boosters.

  • Trade: Head to Jita and sell all your manufactured boosters for a profit.

Verification:

  • Video Documentation: Record key moments like finding the lab, producing the boosters, and the final sale in Jita. Add any other info you think is relevant to the challenge.

You can use any variant of the Blue Pill Boosters for this challenge, but the key requirement is that the booster you ultimately manufacture and sell must be the same one you looted from the exploration site. Make sure to document the entire process clearly in the video!

  • Show a video of a massive combat that you have participated 
    Remembering Battle of B-R5RB that was a historical mark for the game, would be nice to see other massive battles that players have participated over the 13 years of the game existence

  • Make a video visiting a dangerous place in New Eden

    There are a lot of dangerous places in New Eden, because of a strong corporation base or a place with strong NPCs, so it would be nice if you challenge yourself and show us your combat abilities to deal with strong challenges.

Both ideas would be verified by posting the video in connect social media account and shared here, it could be TikTok or YouTube

Use 1 billion ISK for charity or any other socially oriented project. Document wallet transactions, testimonials, or other forms of media where your actions are clearly visible.

I know many EVE players on Justabout have been playing for a long time, so I think it won't hurt your wallet to share some ISK with new players or those in need.

--

If people complain about this bounty being "too expensive," then here's a plan B bounty: How to earn ISK in high-sec. This bounty can be tiered to give first place to the one who offers and can prove the best ISK/hour rating.

Sturmer's avatar

I think this is a great idea for a newbros, I'm 100% in!

Alex Sinclair's avatar

Hey Limal. Is there any reason you can think of why we couldn't expand this idea to PLEX as well? We're thinking 'donate one billion ISK or 500 PLEX'

Limal's avatar

Not sure what to say, but 1 billion ISK is 1 billion ISK, while 500 PLEX is 3 billion ISK.

  • Your in-game action bounty idea, clearly explained

One reward that I thought might work would be something like a "Solo Battleship Heist". The player must get a battleship-class PvE location in low-space, without any help, and will have to recover a certain high-value item, such as faction loot!

  • How the winning entries would be verified

To prove that he did it, I think the easiest way would be for players to take a screenshot of the destroyed ships and a screenshot of the captured cargo (the HUD could be requested to know that the record is on the player's account) as well as a short combat log detailing the battle. This keeps the challenge verifiable through the game mechanics. It's also ideal to post these photos on a verified social media account!

Distribution missions often get overlooked, but a bounty focused on this type of gameplay could be a great way to gather valuable information and create a curated 101 guide. This would include essential details such as the skills needed, the best locations for running these missions, how to effectively plan your routes, and which ships are most suitable. It could also explore which players would find this style of gameplay most appealing, along with various tips and tricks that are typically hidden or rarely discussed. This bounty would bring much-needed attention to an underrated aspect of the game.

And it's not just limited to Distribution missions, CCP can check the current version of 'what to do in eve' and pick branches, where they think the spotlight is needed and JA community can help to craft it!
