Naglfar Falls in 4-HWWF as 68 Pilots Close on a 4.1B ISK Prize
A Naglfar worth 4.1 billion ISK was overwhelmed and destroyed in 4-HWWF as a 68-pilot fight closed around the capital-sized target. The dreadnought belonged to Dr Volt of Death or Glory, and its loss left only wreckage, scattered ammunition, and a modest amount of salvage behind after Apocalypse Now. and allied attackers finished the job.
THE CATCH
The engagement appears to have turned on a single exposed capital: Dr Volt’s Naglfar, flying for Death or Glory through 4-HWWF, was caught in a fight that drew in 68 participants overall. What might have been a manageable escape instead became a high-value collapse once the attackers committed enough force to hold the dreadnought down and keep it from slipping free.
THE PRESSURE BUILDS
Apocalypse Now. is the named attacker on the loss, but the damage profile suggests the strike was reinforced by heavier allies. Fraternity. pilots accounted for the bulk of the listed damage, with Dropping Dream in an Aeon and Humeng TT in a Zirnitra both contributing large portions of the punishment. That mix of ships suggests a coordinated escalation rather than a quick opportunistic hit, with capital fire helping grind the Naglfar into a losing position.
THE BREAK
The final blow went to Niko Falcon, flying a Loki for Apocalypse Now., but the kill was already all but decided by the time the cruiser landed the finishing volley. The Naglfar’s stores were torn apart in the process: Hail XL was largely destroyed, while hydrogen isotopes and Barrage XL were among the items that slipped into the wreckage. Strontium clathrates also vanished with the ship, a reminder that the dreadnought had the fittings to keep fighting if it had found a way out.
THE LOSSES
For Death or Glory and its Puerto Sombra pilot, the cost was immediate and severe. The destroyed hull alone accounted for 3.8 billion ISK of the total, with only 277.4 million ISK recovered as loot. In a fight that lasted only a moment in the record but involved a substantial amount of firepower, the Naglfar stood out as the prize—and the casualty—that defined the clash.
