Fiery Rifter Combat in the Proving Grounds!

Defiant Capsuleers,

In celebration of the unbreakable spirit of the Minmatar, strive for Glorification in a new Abyssal Proving Grounds event where four pilots engage in all-out combat flying the iconic Rifter frigate, burning bright with a 100% bonus to the effects of overheating most modules! Let your weapons and thrusters blaze as bright as your determination as you battle on equal ground – but take caution to not burn up first yourself.

This special Liberation Day Proving Ground event opens at 11:00 UTC on 16 July, and will run until 11:00 UTC on 20 July.

The ruleset for this event is as follows:
- Only the Minmatar Rifter frigate may enter
- Overheat bonuses for modules are increased by 100%, excluding EWAR
- Modules are limited to meta level 5 and below
- No pirate implants

Ready your ships, your ambitions, and your Proving Ground Filaments - collected from Abyssal Deadspace caches or purchased from the in-game market - and demonstrate the strength of your spirit as you aim for the top of the Proving Grounds leaderboard, gaining notoriety and earning special rewards!
