Whats the worst loss you have ever had in ISK and how much ISK did you have at the time?
My worst loss would have to be today. I flew out to 0.0 to find my Brutix gone which then I remembered I had 2xArblest Cruise launchers in and 2xArblest Sieges. I then got another Brutix flew out and killed a few rats got a Arblest Cruise. I managed to kill a Dread Gurista but nothing good dropped anyway with about 20 mil loot I flew back to empire in the last 0.0 jump until empire I warped to 100km saw the camp and saw the bubble. I thought I would make it even though the was a bubble with instas. How wrong was I?
I currently have 80 million so it's quite a big loss.

I lost my first rupture to rats on a mission because of a totally hopeless loadout and crapy skills... it had cost me all i had... MAN was i ****ed :)
That happend when my avatar was very yong, i have lost a lot of stuff since then including some losses approaching the billion mark, but none made me so mad as that rupture... i think it cost me 7.5 million back then :P

my biggest loss was a few weeks back, navy raven :/
my level 4 security agent gave me Enemies Abound 1/5, which is against Gallente, who do KI / TH damage and EM from the navy officer frigs. so i kit 2 x KI, 1 x TH and 1 x invuln, my kit is mostly faction, 7 siege II, b-type large booster, b-type amp, b-type specific hardeners and DG invuln, then 3 bcu II, pdu II and internal forcefield array.
i did the mission, then accepted 2/5 which is a courier, completed that, and the subsequent 3/5 and 4/5, also kill against gallente, then i accepted the 5/5 which is against Minmatar (all damages) so i alter my kit to 1 x EM, 1 x KI, 1 x EX and 1 x invuln, which provides me with sufficient all round resists against minmatar as long as the TH damage dealers are my primary targets (tempest / liberty's)
all done, looted, tags sold, loot run complete and im several hundred million up, cant remember how much i had but was in the region of 200million, this followed a time that i didnt play too much, and had paid out over 1 billion isk recently.
i request a new mission, Enemies Abound 1/5 (woohoo i love that mission), i woot in joy, and think, excellent, already loaded with correct ammo, and i only just finished Enemies Abound series so im kitted correctly already! (WRONG!)
Off i warp to the mission, shoot the initial aggro, then attain full aggro so that my g/f can warp in in her zealot and help run the mission without worrying about getting aggro herself, now, my shields are starting to drop, like a rock, and im panicking (dont normally drop this fast.. wth) so i turn on my booster (b-type large dont forget) and its boosting away merrily, only, my shields ARENT going back up, instead they're falling, (less like a rock, but falling none-the-less) so im madly targetting the gamma II's (scrambling frigs) and attacking with drones, and flailing torps at the BS making sure to stop when i've fired enough to attack the next as soon as possible
my shields are gone. my armor is crumpling. "JUST WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON!"
i look at my shield hardeners:
1 x EX 1 x EM 1 x KI 1 x invuln.
my KI / TH resists are pathetic. its almost asif im not tanked at all.
my ship is going down, nothing can be done about it. lower and lower my armor goes, now im taking hull damage. but. haha! damage control! 58% to all (probably better than what my shields were against KI / TH :/ ) and the damage im taking is dropping, my booster still hasnt stopped running (still at 50% cap ) and im beginning to think i might just survive this..
but no. i popped.
****.
my cnr popped, took with it my booster, 6 launchers, 1 bcu II, my damage control, and 2 of my hardeners (not the invuln), and 2 of my Vespa II's.
what was left? 1 BS, 3 cruisers and 2 frigs. at least i took most of them down with me, eh?
i ran off to jita bought a raven, kitted it, bought new launchers and finished the mission and got my can back.
24 hours later, i got this:
Kikosuda Partoh: Battleship Blowout 500,000 LP.
new CNR ;) but now, i check my kit before i warp in --

Absolutely not :) I'm quite causcious yeah (e.g. I don't jump around in a BS if I don't know if it's clear etc.). ---

At the time: 140mil (prices have changed since then).
Was a Raven /w T1/T2 equipment on one of the L4 drone missions. I hadn't realized at the time that "strain" drones warp scramble, so I turned on my booster too late and couldn't take them down fast enough to get un-scrambled.
Insurance paid for the ship, so it was really only about a 40mil loss, but I owed a corpmate 100mil at the time. ----- Griffin -- 100,000 ISK ECM - Multispectral Jammer Is -- 20,000 ISK Standar Missile Launcher Is -- 10,000 ISK War target sobbing over losing a fight in his T2 fitted Battleship -- priceless |

Edited by: DubanFP on 01/11/2006 02:25:42 Although 20 million isk is only a drop in the bucket to me now, as a % of my networth it would have to be my worm when i was a mear newblet. While training a trial "between my mains trial and upgrade" a Worm BPC dropped during a lvl 1 non-deadspace mission "100% serious", which i Prompty built into a full worm. 20 million isk w00tage!!! I later moved it between a couple trial acounts until i upgraded to real account.
About a couple days into my real account while moving the worm around with an occasional rat killing, and i got invited to gang at war. I knew the scam, but was hoping i could leave gang and they would get pwned by concord . Boy was i wrong. At the time i was only worth about 60 million between my worm, ferox, and isk. Lost 1/3 my networth in 30 seconds, still regret that to this day.
note: not 1 isk for that ferox was a gift, it was made 100% during the 2 week trial through missions.

Edited by: DubanFP on 01/11/2006 02:29:19 From a total networth loss perspective and not a % of networth, i would have to go to using a jump clone to jump to my +3 implants a station down. I thought it was in different staion 4 jumps down but didn't check, unfortunately it was in same station i was in. 110 mil in implants down the hole all at once.

T2 fitted cerb when my corpmate (who was gangleader) warped us into an enemy camp.
Still lasted a looong time vs 4 or 5 enemy craft.
2nd worst one was a T2 fitted raven when 20+ npc cruisers somehow spawned on top of me. (still can't believe how fast my shields melted... i suspect a bug/glitch/lagproblem but no point in petitioning it anyways) Banner will be updated shortly |

this for me:
So Sad
had some free time before work, wanted to fly a few jumps so i wouldn't have to that night....in a hurry, didn't check intel.
jumped, and bam, like 30 hostiles at the gate, most BSes, surprisingly not many on the kill mail....must have been single salvoed.
They were not even camping, didn't have a dictor, just one of those bad timing things, they warped to gate, i jumped through, and they saw the activation.
For some reason this only happens when you are:
a. flying neat and shiney ship, and b. Are carrying alot of supplies and fittings.
I couldn't bare to watch tho, I logged knowing full well there was no way an absolution can warp before getting killed by that many ships. went to work, came home to find my pod as expected. Still felt guilty about logging. Should have screamed yarr and charged the nearest cruiser. Guess Ive been fighting certain enemies too long.
The first step is admitting it.

My worst loss wasnt all that bad, but it was to me at the time:
I had just joined up with my corp, and for the first time was experiencing 0.0
I had run up and down the path to empire a few times and things seemed to be safe enough so I decided I would take my hauler alt up to get some shuttles to sell and for personal use, as shuttles were a bit scarce at the station we operate out of.
While I had the hauler up in empire, I looked at my miner accounts skills, and said 'gee, hes about ready to start training for a hulk' so I spent a good portion of my isk on an exhumers book, then I bought a 3rd t2 strip miner, as I already had 2 down in the 0.0 station.
Tossed those items in the Iteron V along with 40 caldari shuttles........
Started down the pipe, everything was A-OK until i was 1 hop out from the station, I jumped through the gate and before I could turn and warp to my insta on the other gate, an interceptor warped in and was on me and had me scrambled (noob I was, no wcs, all expenders).
Needless to say, the iteron V popped fairly quickly, as the hauler alt has no tanking skills whatsoever. I managed to get his pod out because of the lag from 40 caldari shuttles spontaneously assembling themselves all around me lol. Checked the killmail when I got to the station and the exhumers book, the t2 strip miner, and 3 of the 5 cargo expanders had popped. When I felt it was safe I headed back to the scene of the crime to see if my can had anyting else, and all the guy left me was a single civilian shield booser!
Anyway, was about 45m for the exhumers book, 20m for the t2 stripper, and about 20m in cargo expanders all gone, and I only had about 35m to my name at the time.
Was only 2 days later that I had mined up enough crokite to buy the hauler a shiny new occator, and a shiny viator for making those runs to empire.
In the end I leared alot about 0.0 in that first week or so of play. -=^=-
