2. Knew the risk but did it anyway.
Cynabal w/ facion point worth about 450 mil lost to a large fleet in 0.0 that I jumped into.
7. Didn't know better
Incursion rats in 0.0 on a gate killed my pvp astarte with faction fit worth about 500 mil.
1. Lazyness
Navy Issue Raven lost in a wormhole because I was not hitting d-scan very often.

Ship: vagabond(faction point and MWD) isk: ~600m isk Reason: Didnt know that bhaalghorn spells death for vaga gang
I was roaming 0.0 with two corp mates looking for some pew-pew. Our fleet consisted of two Vagabonds and a cynabal. We had some luck catching ratting BSs that night. So i jump into next system, and what do i see? A nice new Bhaalghorn sitting 30k off gate, and nobody else in local. We jump in engage, and wtf im neuted and both corp mates are webbed? needless to say some lucky bhaalgorn pilot solo pwned 2 vagas and a cynabal.
lesson learned: keep nano ships FAR away from Battleships with bonuses to nuets and webs.

Not too long ago..
Just got my first Tengu. I decided to run some safe lvl 4s in Empire to get a feel for my shiny new 500M ship. It worked really well - Those rats just melted, so I got overconfident, not warping out until my shields were almost completely gone on a regular basis. In one mission, my shields are going, as usual, so I align out, but fail to warp. A single rat frig is scramming me. Despite overheating the launchers, I fail to kill the frig and my tengu eventually pops. It didn't help that I forgot to bring cap charges for my booster.
I haven't gotten a new one yet. Those tengus are jinxed, I tell you!
500M loss

Lost 3 ishtars doing pve in the last few months.
Category: Laziness Lost: 170 mil ISK
did a guristas military complex in an armor setup with no plate. I easily tanked the first thermal smartbomb. I skimmed over the rest of evelopedia's description, noting there was another smartbomb in the next room. I didn't notice that it was EM this time, and i aggro'd it with no shields but full armor. With roughly 2k armor and 2k structure, the 6k em smartbomb barely had enough hp to pop me. If i had waited 15 more seconds, the bit of shield recharge would have left me with a couple points of structure left.
Category: Laziness/barely awake Lost: 600m
finished up a plex with some deadspace armor hardeners and faction stuff fit all around, as well as loot from the plex. It was 5am and intel was quiet. I warped to a gate before checking local and landed on a small gang as they were jumping out. A rapier forced me through, and an afterburner + faction cloak was not enough to avoid getting decloaked.
Category: barely awake, watching tv Lost: 200m
tanking an easy plex with a setup that was not cap stable. I had turned off my repper for a few cycles and completely forgot about it until i saw myself hitting structure. A few days later this happened again but my repper cycled with 4% structure.

Back when I was beautiful, I recently got my first shiny new Legion before I had T2 lasers trained. To remedy this, I put Dark Blood Heavy Pulse lasers on because I was stupid and rich.
I then find out that lasers have poor tracking when fighting elite frigate rats. -------------------------------------------------- I am the Love Angel, Wedding Peach, and I am very displeased by your lack of love! |

Big enemy sniper BS fleet approaching. "ok, everyone, get into your sniper BSs", "nah, I'd rather try out my new pimped out blaster Navy Mega" I think it was worth about 900M back then.

I have a few good ones, they don't compare to a lot of these, but they were good learning points for me. Hell, if you haven't lost a ship, you haven't learned anything.
#1 - Lazyness My most expensive actual loss - Mission fit, poor skillz Abaddon. I'm into my first L4's and can solo them. Clearly THIS is the time to buy a battleship, but not any battleship, the shiniest, biggest most kick-ass T1 BS of all. Ooh, I remember buying it fully rigged and everything for about 75mil...oh those were the days.
Anyway...doing Blockade, which oddly enough has cost me a lot of mission ships over my career, from L2, L3 and L4. Abaddon goes boom, I'd been in it for about a month. It had more than paid for itself with casual play. The I'm-****ed-and-have-to-finish-this-misson-Abaddon I bought and fitted an hour later...That one cost me dearly.
I took a week off from missioning and reassessed my skills and later determinied I was NOT professional enough to fly that ship. Skilled up some support skillz, and have been flying an Armageddon for nearly 6 months, and it's served me well.
#2 Knew the risks New-ish to the game, flying back from jita with a full haul of various goodies in a GSC. Decided to take the short route home because...it was late. Did you know people gate camp in Rancer?! Well, now I know, and I run it in a B-runner and not a Sigil. I did get the last laugh by slowboating away and anchoring the GSC with a password while I was taking fire.

Edited by: Bek Thyron on 19/06/2011 04:04:21 1. Lazyness None so far.
2. Knew the risk but did it anyway. 600m Tengu, not much. Alt scouts 3 systems ahead, main follows if the route is clear. Somehow the guys manage to ****camp a gate JUST BEFORE the main jumps. I jump. See **** hits the fan. See Drones, a lot of...they decloak me as i align...broadsword locks me, POOF! there goes my tengu and my pod
3. Afk "Lol @the frigs, im gonna get...heeeey sweet GF is unclothed" - in this one mission, where the big spawns are timed. - Drake, t2 fitted (yeah, was a lot of isk for ME back then)
4. Barely awake. WH life. Scanned new static, scanned the farm system, which was full of sigs - more then 60 sigs, combat sites not counted. All this after 8hrs of work, i was already tired. Scanned for two hours, got really dizzy. Warp back to my POS - What the ****, WHY IS MY SHIELD ON 52%? Oh wait there are 3 BSes and assorted cruisers shooting at the POS. Oh well. I am stronted, and i cant do nothing, have fun guys. Idiots like me doubleklick when they are tired. My little Covops flies out of the shield as i logoff. POOF covops + pod.
5. Drunk (Beer mostly. Sometimes white rum. Sometimes JSger) Countless drakes + caracals. "Heeeey guuuuys, here is a drake, just jumped i tackle him...hey guys, DO NOT WARP TO ME DO NOT WARP TO ME fleet just jumped in GUYS GUYS AARGHHH *static* "I thought you said JUMP ON ARRIVAL" "What? Gatefire? I can tank it! And this Brutix too, and his dro...*boom*" "YOU GUYS ARE PUSSIES LOOK I TACKLE HIM AND THEN YOU JUMP oh wait jammed scrammed *boom*" "LOL i can target gates (highsec) WOOOPS fingerslipped f1 *BOOM*" Yes, i should not drink if i pretend to pvp. My W/R ratio is 29:2, i think. Whatever, as long i have fun at it
6. Wife/GF aggro None, she played Eve for a while. I posted this somewhere already, but it is funny, so here it goes again: *ringringring* "Yeah...uh, hi, whats up? - What are you doing right now? - Playing eve, just some lowsec exploration, with my new nice tengu + Bek scanning...just evaded a gatecamp, think the guys are chasing me, heh. - WHAT THE ****! DOCK UP OF CLOAK UP IN A SAFE! I dont want to hear you *****ing about ship losses again, not as long you can make me responsible for it."
7. General fail. Corp declares war on a "carebear corp". Two days later, the guys show up with a gang of battlecruisers + some cruisers. I die a fiery painful death because i tried to shoot at the myrm. FAIL. 2nd account undocks, warps to the gate, get bumped, scoops the loot from the first wreck, scrammed...fck, what now? "I WILL DIE ANYWAYS SO LETS DO IT WITH HONOR! *target the cruisers and shoot 2 of them*"
**** ****

ShahFluffers, I rather liked your story, it kept me interested and was generally gripping throughout :)
My biggest loss, I think, was a fully pimped out Malediction, Centii C-type repairer, Centi resist plating, gisti afterburner and what not.

Falls under the category of 2. knew the risk and did it anyways.
Flew a fully-fitted Phoenix into a Starbase siege.
2.5B ISK (at the time) gone.
After that, next biggest loss will be a recent Tengu in w-space; was in a gang doing a class 4 and got lazy and neglected to continue scanning for probes. I did get my loot out though.
After that, there's a particular dragon I had sex with. That was a very valuable loss, I couldn't even put a price on it. :(

I brought a nano ishtar to a major op back in 2008. Single dumbest thing I ever did, got desynced and died horribly once an enemy vaga charged over 150km to get to me, I was never scrammed and could not warp out. _________ EVE is like the "Fisherman's Friend" of MMOs. If it's too hard, you are too weak. |

2 faction fit tengu's over the course of a week. Both due to GF agro. aprox 3bil in total and almost 500k of skill points.
1st, warping into a lvl 4 worlds collide 2nd room. Forgot to activate my tank and got dragged away for something unimportant by the gf.
2nd, warped in to a bloods mission. Gf has a meltdown because she took something i said out of context and we have a blazing row. While this occurs the bloods sneak up on me and neut/nos and scram me.

I don't know how the fight exactly went, but that Adrestia had 3 Machs, a Claymore, 2 Vagas, a Cane an Curse and THREE Scimitars on his side. But it took only 3 BC and a HAC to kill his ship through all this backup.
An Adrestia, a guaranteed primary, has no business flying a gankfit with such a weak shieldbuffer. It turns a tactical asset for a gang into a liability and a logistic nightmare.
Tactical failfit. Your idiocy is showing

Edited by: Hakkar''al Gallente on 23/06/2011 03:27:23 I don't fly "expensive" stuff, mainly T2 cruisers. Off to a horribly bad start though.
What: Vagabond - 200m something Category: **** I know how to fly this thing but it looks cool Where: Cloud Ring When/How: During NC vs Ev0ke campaign. We were chasing some Ev0ke allies around, when we decided to cut them off on a gate. "Warp to get at your optimals"... OK .... what is the optimal for this thing then ... um... **** pick something .... "... Warp to [gate] at 10km."
"Oh here they come, targeting called primary", fail to do much more as someone in enemy fleet must have said something to the effect of "Primary is Hakkar in Vaga"...
Haven't touched a Vaga since.

Most expensive loss was a Zealot. I fly cheap ships :)
I ran a Gurista combat signature and its escalations, all the way out into lowsec. All went well, I popped the Dread, and then a whole horde of Gallente NPCs appeared and scrammed the hell out of me. Bye bye Zealot :(
At least the dread wreck didn't have anything of value so I didn't feel compelled to attempt to recover anything. Just got my pod-clad self back into highsec and set course for Jita to buy another ship.
