Tri fishing Nyx baited and killed

January 11, 2014

Roughly two hours ago a Triumvirate fishing Nyx dropped onto a thanatos that seemed to be ratting in a sanctum. Such an act is just one part in a process which, along with finding and killing his targets, netted this fishing pilot around ninety carriers and other assorted large kills.

The only difference in this drop was that he was expected. But what went wrong?

DARKNESS. alliance isn’t looked upon by its enemies with very much respect. Various persons on reddit and kugu regard them as a third-rate alliance. For instance this redditor:

Very well done Danilaw, RIP. But how do you get caught by the extreme bads of EVE? I could understand maybe CFC, but DARKNESS. ? [/quote]

Yet, it would seem, that the third largest alliance in the Stainwagon has a talent its foes overlook. Not long ago DARKNESS. baited Kadeshi supercapitals rather successfully. Again, they show aptitude in luring supercapitals to their death. As danilaw recalls:

Danilaw had this to say, on reddit, about his career as a fisherman:

It’s a game after all and it needs to be played. Looking at a ship in a pos is barely playing so I better risk it and have fun while it lasts. [/quote]

Danilaw is currently taking donations for a new Nyx as this one was funded by a 50B Somer Blink BLAST which he used to purchase the pilot and the original Nyx.

The killmail itself.
