2.1 Billion ISK Ship Lost in Maseera Skirmish

A 2.1 billion ISK ship was destroyed in Maseera as LowSechnaya Sholupen and allies overpowered a Shadow Cartel pilot in a fight that drew 105 participants. The target was pinned down and finished off by a Nightmare flown by Nai Palm, with Phoenix Navy Issue support helping tip the encounter firmly in the attackers’ favour.

THE CATCH

The loss happened in Maseera on 2026-05-31, with the fight resolving at the same moment it began. What stood out was not the duration, but the scale: 105 participants converged on a single target, turning what may have started as a localized engagement into a costly collapse for Shadow Cartel.

THE BREAK

LowSechnaya Sholupen is listed as the attacker, with Interstellar Scum identified on the striking side as well. The final blow came from Nai Palm in a Nightmare, after substantial damage had already been applied by Lee Flow and another Phoenix Navy Issue pilot. The presence of multiple high-damage ships suggests the target was boxed in before the end came.

THE PRIZE

The destroyed ship, recorded as Ship 32309, accounted for 1.9 billion ISK in destruction, with only 175 million ISK in loot escaping the wreck. That kind of exchange leaves little room for comfort: most of the value vanished in the fire, and the remainder was not enough to soften the blow. Several listed items were destroyed outright, while one notable item was recovered, underscoring how hard the ship was stripped down in the attack.

THE COST

For Shadow Cartel, the loss of a high-value ship in Maseera is the sort of event that can linger well beyond the grid. Even without the full tactical backstory, the numbers point to a sharp and expensive defeat. For LowSechnaya Sholupen, it was a clean prize taken in a crowded field — the kind of kill that signals control at the end of a violent, compressed engagement.

Scan Stakan Killed 55 Ships and Lost 186 in the Same Fight

E-WMT7 produced 376 killmails, somewhere around 134 billion ISK of wreckage, and one battleship worth more than a force auxiliary, a Nestor and a Typhoon Fleet Issue put together. The number that stings harder is 186. That is how many ships Scan Stakan lost in the same engagement in which they killed 55 - top of the kill list and top of the loss list, in a single three-and-a-half-hour afternoon.

x Never Regret x Takes 40 Kills as Raa Burns 26 Capitals

At 17:28 UTC, a Retriever died in Raa. Retrievers die constantly, and in Devoid that is more or less the job description. This one is only worth mentioning because of what followed it: for the next hundred minutes, a system on the edge of Amarr space turned into a scrapyard, and by the time the last shot landed at 19:10, 87 ships had been destroyed and the bill had reached 157.4 billion ISK. Almost half of that was one Revelation.

Rattini Tribe and Prime Directive. Split Dal's 192 Billion ISK Bill

An Amarr Shuttle belonging to G0lden Fleet. died in Dal at 16:15 UTC. That is not normally the opening line of a 192 billion ISK story, but Dal spent the next three hours and forty-one minutes making sure nobody forgot it. By the time the last capsule in the system - belonging to x Never Regret x - came apart at 19:56, 557 pilots had produced 516 confirmed losses, fourteen capital ships had been wrecked, and the Heimatar system had eaten just over 192 billion ISK. That is not a skirmish somebody stumbled into. That is a decision, made over and over, for the better part of four hours.

Brave Newbies Topped Both Sides of the HY-RWO Ledger

The first ship to die in HY-RWO was a Rokh worth 44.7 billion ISK, and it set the tone for everything that came after. Over the following hour, 1,883 pilots fought in the Catch system, 243 ships were destroyed, and around 205 billion ISK was removed from the economy one killmail at a time. Not a single capital ship died. In a fight of that size, the most expensive losses were ordinary battleships, fitted in a way that makes the word 'ordinary' sound absurd.
