Earlier today, a Ragnarok belonging to Alpha Traders pilot Mr Bobr, was killed in Alachene by a Shadow Cartel fleet. I caught up with the mastermind behind the attack, Darkstar Conda of Soul Takers, and here’s what he had to say:
Muffin Paladin > So, how did you happen to find this titan?
Darkstar Conda > mduncan0341 was scouting around and noticed is was active in alachene
Muffin Paladin > how did you manage to catch him?
Darkstar Conda > We blopsed them last night, got a few, orca etc and noticed they were heavy in to mining. I created a bait alt a while back for a situation like this and so I brought her into system this morning. They joined their mining fleet, asked a few questions, verified it was a noob alt and kicked me from their fleet.
Muffin Paladin > How rude!
Darkstar Conda > Smack talked in local saying I was gonna bring my “BIG SHIP” back and kill them all and they encouraged me to do so. So I got into my bait archon fitted to resit a rag DD and figured out what pos he was likley to log in and warp from. Had a cyno bomber watch him hit warp and then warped the bomber 70 from the station and he landed 20 km from our bomber.
Darkstar Conda > koral123 was his alts bomber so I agro’d on station with my bait carrier, and waited for the DD, the rest his history. We’ve been friends with shadow cartel for years, and I had planned this with Paquito who was the bridger for hics and the muscle.
The plan was clearly very well pulled off, as the victim of this incident admitted himself.
Muffin Paladin > What were you doing in your Rag before the fight?
Mr Bobr > I was stuck in a POS module trying to warp. I’m sure Shadow Cartel was annoyed it took me forever to go after the bait.
Muffin Paladin > what did they bait you with?
Mr Bobr > (1) I killed a carrier through a drive by a few days back, he was aggressing subcaps. (2) I think they marked me for that. 🙂 They had a carrier aggressing subcaps. SC did a basic bait, it was good.
Muffin Paladin > any other comments on the kill?
Mr Bobr > I believe this is the game’s 7th Ragnarok, it has survived a long time. RIP

Mr Bobr seems to have taken his latest loss in stride, and was very glad for the content. And if it was in fact the seventh Ragnarok ever built then it just goes to show nothing lasts forever! I’m sure there will likely be more pilots who fall for similar situations as there will always be pilots who want to take advantage of another’s misfortune and complacency.
Fly dangerous, capsuleers!
