Yesterday I was ratting and I wound up loosing a drake and later a buzzard when trying to save part of my loot… Triple 1,8 M rat spawn oneshotting a frig anyone?

So i was sitting there, one ratting drake short and a wad of insurance cash in my pocket. Buying a cheap drake from the corp was the first remedy and then I used my other char to do some shopping in hisec. One of our corp carriers was going up to hisec for a little provisions run and I managed to squeeze a medium secure can in with fittings for the return trip.

Having finished all this, I saw an Atlas-member trying to sell a rigged Raven in local. After a short convo, I was the happy owner and could get it in a neighbouring system. One thing about this game that shows I’m still is a beginner is the darker side of the game. After accepting the contract I couldn’t find the raven and my corpmates obviously screamed scam and laughed. Luckily enough, the raven was a few jumps out and I could get it without any trouble.

A few moments of comedy though. First, not renaming the raven and undocking caused quite a stir among our blues since they saw it on scanner and thought it was a neut undocking. A few explanations later in intelchannels and I was off.

The other comedy moment was when the seller of the Raven congratulated us on the ganking of a fellow called Booster Rooster. He was apparently not that liked and he was just hanging back farming spawns rather than joining the others on PVP-ops.

After trying the raven a little, I was not that impressed with the DPS but the tank seems to more than enough to take on tripple BS-spawns.
