EVE Online News

Greetings fellow Capsuleers and welcome back to another Community Beat!

In the last Community Beat we covered the absolute carnage that was Stay Frosty’s Annual Frigate Free for All, the convergence of the Plex4Good Battleship Brawl, the jamming vibes of the EveWave, and every cartographer’s dream, DOTLAN!

We had a little bit of information come in about the Frigate Free for All – It saw roughly 100b of ISK destroyed throughout the event. We can confidently confirm that this year’s Frigate Free for All crushed the single system lowsec kill record that had previously belonged to… last year’s Frigate Free for all! This year’s Frigate free for all was the 4th bloodiest single-system event in Eve history, only behind the 3 biggest Red vs Blue Poinen high sec FFA’s in 2021 and 2013.

Image was taken just outside the Stay Frosty Astrahus “Toothpaste Fish” during the event.

The buzz was so strong and the desire for blood was so high, that even the following day saw the largest all-time record for most PVP kills across all of low sec space. A record that had been held on May 5th 2013 (the weekend of EVE’s 10th Birthday).


We all love spaceships, but Imiarr Timshae’s love for spaceships has gone even step further. During our Plex4Good Campaign, they pledged to custom make a ship, 100% from scratch, hand-designed and modelled out of fully recycled materials, with no 3d printed or downloaded components. The winner, a pilot by the name of Aura Glimmer, won with a colossal donation of 800,000 PLEX! Super impressive!

You can check out the thread on the forums here.

Get your Scanner Probes ready and brush up on those D-Scan skills, because on April 26th 2022, Fire Stunner will be running an Easter Egg Hunt – Across 3 different Regions and 25 different systems, PLEX, Skins, Blueprints, Abyssal mods and more will be placed out in space for you to find. The Region names and the Codes to crack the container’s passwords will be released on the day of the event.

Fire Stunner did a short video with the plan and a link to their Discord where they’ll be announcing the passwords on the day which you can check out below:

The preparation for this year’s Fanfest is in full swing and making sure that everything is shipped and ready for delivery, inside and outside of New Eden is always a big task.We recently started the distribution of items across all the stations and.. well, we thought things were going according to plan, but we recently received footage from T’amber that shows that one of the contracted freighters appears to be stuck in the station. Hopefully, they can rock themselves free in time!

These images were taken from T’ambers Twitter which you can find here

That’s right Capsuleers, CCP Chair, through multiple sit-downs with various unscrupulous individuals, has sourced our (literally) largest acquisition to date. John Rourke’s Sofa! Since John’s mysterious disappearance over 10 years ago, we’ve been trying to track him down. We’ve been informed that he loved this sofa like a dear friend, so we’re hoping that by sourcing this sofa that he’ll reach out to us!


New Eden is filled with a plethora of people with different styles and backgrounds and Corvus Onzo fits firmly in the category of low sec, solo and small gang PVP aficionado.

Corvus is a Twitch Streamer and formerly a long-serving member of the Caldari Militia, Corvus became an admirer of the Condor, which features a lot in his engagements and features heavily in his content. Corvus streams over on Twitch Wednesday, Thursday and Friday and occasionally also covers special events! You can find him on Twitch or join his Discord – the “Low Sec Kiting Club” here.

We'd love to hear from YOU, head on over to the Eve Online Forums and share anything that you're enjoying doing or making, we'd love to see it! With Fanfest coming we know you all love to bring things, why not share some of them!

Lovestricken Capsuleers,



The only ship better than the friendship is the relationship and who says that relationship can’t be forged with your fellow Capsuleer? New Eden might be better known for killmails than love letters, but that’s about to change soon with Upwell Divinity Social, the new way to meet love among the stars.



Divinity Social is a new multidimensional dating experience for EVE players, old and new. Simply log into the app and choose your preferences to meet and connect with like-minded Capsuleers from across the cluster in the world’s first MMO-centric dating app.

By leveraging EVE’s depth and complexity, Divinity Social will be a gamechanger in the dating scene by comparing your EVE Online character to potential matches. Just like how you would fit your ship in EVE Online, you will be able to fit your profile for love. Simply select your favorite EVE activities, fit them to your profile, and let Divinity roam for content all the way from Outer Passage to Delve. No more long-nights stuck with a Highsec care bear!

Strike or be struck on Divinity Social over at divinity.eve.com!

[h3]A Match Made in the Abyss[/h3]



Prove your connection and put your Divinity Social match to the test in the Cruiser Chaos FFA Proving Grounds, starting today and running until 5 April! Because nothing says I love you like a killmail.

This special Proving Grounds event pits you against three other Capsuleers in a chaos era unlike ever before! Either work together or hit them hard and see what they’re truly made of.

All participating ships will be afflicted with one of the following unique bonuses. The winning Capsuleers will be those who can identify and adapt to their environment quickly.

• Chaos Bonus A:+100% Ship Velocity, +100% Ship Inertia, +100% Capacitor Capacity.
• Chaos Bonus B:+50% Shield and Armor Hitpoints, +50% Turret and Missile Damage.
• Chaos Bonus C:+100% Stasis Webifier Range, +50% Turret Optimal and Falloff, +50% Missile Flight Time, +50% Ship Mass.
• Chaos Bonus D:+5000 Hull Hitpoints, -50% Module Heat Damage from Overheating, +100% benefits gained from overheating Tackle Modules, Propulsion Modules, Repair Modules, Resistance Modules, Energy Warfare Modules, Turrets, and Launchers.

The arena will also feature new Mystery Nexuses which will provide massive buffs or debuffs to nearby ships when approached. Does your fit not mesh well with the arena-wide bonus? Maybe a Mystery Nexus will give you the edge you need to pull through!

• Mystery Nexus Buffs:+50% Ship Velocity, -75% Ship Inertia, -75% Capacitor Recharge Time, -50% Signature Radius, +50% Turret and Missile Damage
• Mystery Nexus Debuffs:-25% Ship Velocity, +100% Ship Inertia, +50% Capacitor Recharge Time, +25% Signature Radius, -25% Turret and Missile Damage

As with all Proving Grounds, ship and module choices are limited. For the Cruiser Chaos event you can pick from the Omen, Caracal, Thorax, Stabber, Maller, Moa, Vexor, and Rupture. Modules are also limited to meta 0, meaning you can fit the Warp Scrambler I, but not the Faint Epsilon Scoped Warp Scrambler.

Sensor Dampeners, Weapon Disruptors, Shield Rechargers, Shield Power Relays, Shield Flux Coils, and Core Defense Field Purgers are banned in this format. Ships entering this Proving Grounds may have a maximum of one local repair module fitted (shield or armor).

Regardless if you win or die trying, a repeatable event will be running to help fund your destruction. If you deal at least 4,000 damage to other ships during the event you will receive 10m ISK. There will also be an Agency reward track running with the Proving Grounds – the more you fight, the more SKINs and boosters you can win.

So, whether it’s killmails or love letters that you’re looking for in New Eden, there’s always something waiting for you. Head into the Proving Grounds, or onto Divinity Social and let your passion run wild!

Generous Capsuleers,

Together we have achieved something amazing. With the PLEX for GOOD: Ukraine fundraiser now wrapped, together Capsuleers, individual EVE developers and CCP Games have raised a remarkable $501,652 USD. That money will now directly help those impacted by the ongoing war in Ukraine, including the millions forced to flee their homes and lives to find safety.

The total amount will be converted to real world money and donated to both UNHCR, the UN Refugee Agency, and the National Bank of Ukraine Humanitarian Assistance campaign.

UNHCR works in over 130 countries, protecting people forced to flee their homes because of war and persecution. Their effort is focused on life-saving support, safeguarding fundamental human rights and helping them build a better future – and as a result of the current war, UNHCR has increased its focus inside Ukraine and across the neighbouring countries that have provided a safe haven for the million displaced in recent weeks.

The National Bank of Ukraine Humanitarian Assistance, meanwhile, is focusing its efforts on helping those that remain in Ukraine, providing food, shelter, medicine, clothing, shoes, and staple goods to citizens and refugees who have been displaced due to the conflict. The National Bank of Ukraine Humanitarian Assistance also delivers one-off financial aid to those in need, while endeavouring to support the overall needs of the population.

[h3]HOW THE MONEY WAS RAISED[/h3]

You, the amazing Capsuleers of New Eden, proved that kindness and humanity are core values of our EVE community, by contracting PLEX to the in-game character CCP PLEX for GOOD, an account operated by CCP Games. Our developers – who hail from all over the world including Ukraine and Russia – also made numerous donations to PLEX for GOOD themselves, with CCP then matching all total donations for the campaign.

With the war still having such an awful impact on so many millions, it remains a time for empathy with all impacted, and hope for resolutions that lead to lasting peace. Yet the EVE community should rightly feel proud about what you have achieved – it will very directly help other people in great need. At CCP, there is a sense of deep gratitude that the player community has been so generous in coming together.

And looking back across all the PLEX for GOOD campaigns together, in total we have now raised over $1.2 million USD. It’s a true demonstration that EVE community is about a lot more than simply enjoying video games.

• 2005 - $25,326 – Southeast Asia (tsunami)
• 2010 - $34,350 – Haiti (earthquake)
• 2010 - $38,900 – Pakistan (monsoon)
• 2011 - $44,600 – Japan (earthquake and tsunami)
• 2011 - $32,900 – United States (Hurricane Irene)
• 2013 - $190,890 – Philippines (Typhoon Haiyan)
• 2015 - $103,650 – Nepal (earthquake)
• 2020 - $107,454 - Australia (bushfires)
• 2020 - $135,550 - Global (COVID-19)
• 2022 - $501,652 – Ukraine (war)

[h3]STILL WANT TO DONATE?[/h3]

If you are still looking to donate to help people impacted by the war in Ukraine, we encourage you to make a direct donation to one of the following organizations who are actively providing aid:

• UNHCR - Ukraine
• National Bank of Ukraine Account for Humanitarian Assistance
• UNICEF
• Red Cross
• MSF - Doctors without Borders

[h3]A FINAL NOTE[/h3]

The EVE Online community is about fun, adventure and the excitement that can be found in New Eden. But our collective power also means we can do amazing things – and we should never forget what can be achieved. We have the ability – even responsibility – to make a positive difference to people and the planet we share.



And it all starts with respect, kindness and supporting fellow humans. If we make that the standard in all we do within the EVE community, we can – as PLEX for Good: Ukraine shows – achieve amazing things.
