THE CATCH
The engagement in ZDB-HT ended with a single expensive loss, but it was no routine pickoff. Eighteen pilots were involved in the broader fight, with Goonswarm Federation and Psyno Theory on opposite sides of the exchange. At the center of it was Jacques Perl’s Drekavac, a hull that quickly became the prize once the fight narrowed around it.
THE PRESSURE BUILDS
Goonswarm’s damage dealers came in the form of multiple Prophecy Navy Issues, with Brolicious, Brococrisps, Mealteamsix, bbceidon, and Brohibition all contributing to the kill. Their combined fire suggests a concentrated effort rather than a lucky finishing shot, and the numbers point to a target that was already under sustained pressure when the final damage landed.
THE BREAK
Brolicious secured the final blow, but the loss was spread across the attacking line. The Drekavac yielded 742.3 million ISK in destroyed value and 340.5 million ISK in drops, including stacks of Mystic M, Meson Exotic Plasma M, and Tetryon Exotic Plasma M, while Nanite Repair Paste and Occult M were largely destroyed in the wreckage. The ship itself was the story: a costly hull lost in a moment where escape or reinforcement evidently never arrived in time.
THE COST
For Psyno Theory and Jacques Perl’s corp, Physics Says No, the destruction of a Drekavac is a sharp reminder of how quickly an expensive cruiser-class ship can vanish once caught. For Goonswarm Federation, the kill adds another measured success in ZDB-HT, a clean and visible result from a 14-pilot attacking effort that turned a brief encounter into a 1.1 billion ISK loss for the other side.
