THE CATCH
The fight in MN-Q26 appears to have been a compact skirmish, but it still drew a dozen participants into the moment the Praxis became exposed. Goonswarm Federation pilot MAX4C lost the ship while flying under the weight of a fit that included multiple Domination Large Proton Smartbombs, a reminder that even a heavily armed ship can become a prize once it is isolated and pressured.
THE BREAK
The final blow came from wtyybm in a Loki flying for The Initiative., with MMTTYY in a Retribution also among the attackers. The recorded damage spread suggests the target was being worked over from several angles, rather than simply burst down in one pass. That kind of pressure leaves little room for a larger hull to recover once its defenses begin to give way.
THE LOSSES
The destruction totalled 1.5 billion ISK, with 1.1 billion ISK in losses and 402.3 million ISK recovered as drops. Some of the most notable fittings were wiped out entirely, including multiple Domination Large Proton Smartbombs and a Large Capacitor Control Circuit I. A Cap Recharger II is listed among the dropped items, but the rest of the expensive edge on the ship did not survive the fight.
THE CONSEQUENCE
For The Initiative., the result is another successful catch in a local engagement that ended quickly and cleanly. For Goonswarm Federation, it is the sort of loss that can happen when a valuable ship is caught at the wrong time and in the wrong place: not a battle that changes the map, but a sharp and costly reminder that even a single Praxis can make a fight worth taking seriously.
