It has been a busy weekend, so I haven’t had a chance to log on and watch what has been going on for Burn Jita 3.
Big system keeps on burning…
But there is a video up that shows a freighter gank that looks really good, so I thought I would share that.
You can see the freighter, a big fat Amarr Providence, and the stream of Catalyst destroyers burning into range to start their attack. (There is a Thrasher in the mix there, and a Cormorant.) As the Catalysts get in range and start firing, you can see the red beams from the CONCORD enforcement ships, which are off-screen at that angle, locking down the attackers. CONCORD pops a few of the attackers, but then the freighter succumbs and ends up a wreck. CONCORD finishes blowing up the attacking ships as they cluster around the wreck of the freighter in a pyrotechnic end to the gank.
The Burn Jita event is slated to run through the 28th, though it could be extended if the stockpiles of Catalysts hasn’t run out.
If you are interested in the freighter kill tally, there is a site up dedicated to the count.
I am constantly amazed how oblivious some EVE players are to the big meta events in the game. My Providence has been safely docked in station. Every area has warnings about Burn Jita in local. So much ISK wasted (or not depending on your point of view).

Wasn’t the Tornado the mainstay of previous burn Jita’s? Has the Catalyst displaced it?
