Sansha's Military Outpost, I ran this a week or so ago back, me and a friend. I was in an Oneiros and he was in a Dominix.
We did the first room, cleared up most of the wrecks and went to go in the gate. Comes up saying we need a drop, key card of some sort that will drop off 'something' in the area.
There was one wreck 50km out and an oddly named structure, so being the quicker I set off to get the wreck while the Domi went to blow up the structure.
The structure explodes and I instantly die, some kind of doomsday explosion trap that hit the entire grid for over 5000hp.
I petitioned it, because its a ridiculous situation, but never really expected to get anything back, and I didn't.
My question is do people think things like this should be in the game? Blind, unavoidable traps, where the only way to know they exist is to lose a 100mill isk ship and don't do it again?

how far away where you. There is at least one mission that does this to 40k range.

A cruiser can't tank a 5000 dmg hit?

We are somewhat avoidable and we are allowed in game. Thanks for asking.

Be 60k away and it wont hit...
The one in 2nd stage is unavoidable mind - like most traps they are EM damage, but on the good side its all a learning experience. next time you will know and can avoid
The 2nd one detonates EVERY time someone attacks it (the base). So watch what you do...

Don't think of it as "unavoidable trap"... think of it as a really, really big smartbomb

Your right actually, even on my weakest damage type I should be able to take 15k damage, i'm just going by what the killmail says on 'damage taken'.
Think that's a case to reopen the petition or is it a lost cause?
Also Philip, that's kinda my point, without KNOWING that how are you supposed to avoid it? The only way to find out about it is to get killed by it in the first place.
I mean even a warning or something like "You have triggered some kind of count down" and you have 5 seconds to get out.

Things like this, and the 100k Citadel Torps of OMGWTF Doom described in other sites, make me really want to try exploration... it sounds a hell of a lot more interesting and fun than missions.
