Let’s crack this reward open!

It started as a typical day. I landed a few jumps away from a rookie system to begin my usual mining operation with my trusty Orca, aiming to help new players boost their profits. During the session, one of them reported an aggressive pilot in a neighboring system - someone stealing loot, flagging for combat, and generally provoking trouble.

I quickly deployed a Mobile Depot to add a warp disruptor and webifier to my otherwise peaceful Orca. One of the things I love about this ship is the massive 40k m³ fleet hangar, letting me carry a wide range of gear for quick adaptability. After 90 seconds, I was omw to handle the situation.

Upon arrival in the asteroid belt, I cleared a few NPC pirates, leaving their wrecks behind, and dropped a can filled with some ores to bait the troublemaker. I also deployed my mining drones to make it appear like business as usual.

Within five minutes, that pilot arrived in a Corax, going straight for the jetcan. He clearly wasn’t forseen me to tackle him, locking his movement and preventing his warp. What he really didn’t expect was my peaceful harvesters turning into aggressive Valkyries II, dishing out over 600 DPS :)

The fight was over in moments, leaving me victorious. Aside from reclaiming my ores lol, I also snagged a loot haul worth 7 million ISK, nice bonus!

I’m keeping names and locations under wraps to protect my identity - Orca baiting is a known tactic, and I’m not about to risk my 3 billion ISK ship by sharing too much!

So, we took T1 exploration frigates out for a visit in the warzone. We had a few encounters and good kills! Since these frigates were clearly fitted for PvP and I was not alone, I am not 100% sure if this is a valid entry, but I choose to try my luck.

We attacked a Navy Cruiser with our three Herons and two Bursts when a friendly Stabber came and shot him too. The following escalation lead to most of us dying, but we also got a Catalyst Navy Issue before succumbing to the overwhelming force. As the evening progressed, we even destroyed a Battleship with our exploration frigs, but I did not get final blow or top damage in that fight.

If this is not a valid entry, then it is just a funny story and I hope you enjoy! Make sure to never underestimate the surprising dps of a Heron and the power of the energy neutralizer 😉
