Edited by: flakeys on 26/06/2011 10:49:11 Navy scorp total worth bout 2.5 B i think.
Engaged solo with about 4 reds next to me knowing there probably was a trap.Ended up being bout 7 guys vs me.
When i engaged i knew the chance of a loss was huge but still well worth the effort.Did the same a few days before and could kill 2 bc's with me soloing versus 5 others and had just enough time to redock that day.
I don't mind heavy losses as long as i meant to go into pvp.I rather loose a 5B ship when i engage in pvp then loose my ratting drake while ratting

Federation Navy Megathron, T2 Fit ~500mil ISK
Syndication Storyline in Gallente Space, failed on the 3rd or 4th mission, where you get completely swarmed with battleships. Pretty serious DPS, should have triggered with a shuttle and came back at a distance. Course, I didn't do this, and I got what I deserve. Barely raged, it was just a "shucks, there goes a week's progress" reaction. Sucks though, we live and we learn.
Was moving to a Vindicator the next day anyway.

Category 2 I guess: should have known the risk but did it anyway. One of the first things I learned in EVE was don't fully trust anyone.
Like Dirk Magnum on page 1; our corp logi pilot was supposed to be moving all our gear from 0.0 to lowsec via his carrier. Guess he had a major fallout with the CEO and decided to take the moral low road taking his anger out on fellow corpmates by stealing everyone's stuff. He took over a billion in ships and mods from me alone.

Kill a guy ratting in lowsec.
Go back to highsec because some wt logged on.
Dialog on jump, don't read, click ok.
Appear in highsec with GCC, Concord arrives, scram web, pewpew -> One vaga down
So I go to the nearest tradehub, buy a new vaga and proceed to the wartargets area. The wartarget is waiting a bit of the gate in a myrm. (yes bait, I know)
We engage and local spikes -> Second vaga down.
That was enough for the evening....

I once took a courier contract to a 0.0 outpost where I couldn't dock. There was a little niggling voice screaming "It's a Scam!" completely ignored it and lost 120 million ISK in collateral but got a small standard container from the package. The contract creator seemed to be an alt created specifically for scams.
Within hours of being able to fly a Maelstrom at all, I took one through a wormhole against a "particularly hard" sleeper site. Managed to last surprisingly long but had no way of escaping the sleeper neuts and warp scramblers. It was interesting trying to recover my stuff with a Zepher. Of course I didn't remember insurance. It was about a year before I went through a wormhole again. 100+ mill
Latter, I lost another Maelstrom underestimating the COSMOS deadspace complex. Turned out the insurance had run out the previous day but the "You're insurance ran out!" notices don't always trigger when they're supposed to. 100+ mill
Was moving planet goods out of Low-Sec in a mammoth, a guy followed me through a stargate. I watched him so intently I didn't notice when my gate cloak wore off. I had a improved cloaking device, but never got to use it. I also double clicked my cloak on my Prowler once, turning it off again accidentally, received damage but didn't actually lose the ship.

I was thinking about my losses and i do not think that i have ever lost anything that really hurts my wallet anyway.
I think my biggest loss ever is nighthawk in pvp about 300m. That might have cost more back on 2008 but cant really remember.

not sure if someone already answered. However AFAIK CCP returns 1 "occasionally abandoned" ship for 1 account.
And my loss. Something about 1.5-2.5bils i guess. It was Nightmare with faction fit. Reason: lazyness. I went with my main to shoping and decided to run Drone Patrol with my second alt (who has bad drone and tanking skills and never tried soloing).... He got scrambled by 3-5 frigates and noone in corp was fast enough to resque him. My main was 10+ jumps away by that time.....
Later i have lost tengu (wrong move in final room of 10/10 escalation, get neuted, scrambled and melted). Good luck though: i took all expensive stuff from wreck. And rattlesnake: while shooting drone mother i went to have dinner with my wife. For too long time.....

I bought isk.
turns out you can't sell anything unless it's a direct station trade when you have less than 0 isk. Learned my lesson, and i'm finally back into positive funds. |

Originally by: Dirk Magnum Billion ISK in rigged ships stolen by a crooked freighter pilot from my previous corp. Corp was relocating to another region and :welp: The loss constituted about 90% of my assets, ISK-wise. Made the most of it though. It was kind of fun starting over with a nearly empty hangar and barely 100 mil. I developed a more streamlined perspective on asset ownership.
lol yeah i lost 5 billion in that.
but luckily i had most me ships |

1) 2.4 billion ISK Tengu to an instalocking high-sec WT HIC+Rapier+Bhaghlaorn
2) 800 million ISK CNR after clicking "warp to and dock" on a station as the GF was yelling at me to get ready for the beach. I alt-tabbed and the ship never docked. Apparently, it sat outside a 0.0 station for 2 hours before a Tri gang finally killed it. She was a ***** about it too.
3) 600 million (2x Slepnir in about three days jumping blind into EC- and getting scrammed/webbed somehow before I could burn back to the gate)
4) Sabre (only 60 mil or so) to a Vaga when I was ****faced. I started about 200 km from it too.
5) 150 mil Raven when BS were sorta a big deal in HED-GP after slowboating safely without a scout for 25 jumps in 0.0.

Sometimes I'm really stupidą
I lost a Tengu with 4x Caldari Navy BCS and a Pith-C type med booster in highsec. Plus my pod, +4 and missiles/cap implants.
- Was in State Protectorate to avoid paying taxes (too lazy to create my own corp) - Girlfriend aggro in the middle of a mission, decide to warp to the sun - Come back 10 min later, find myself attacked by an Abaddon and another ship, already in low armor - Try to escape, ship does not respond because my bandwith is saturated by the downloads I started earlier - Tengu explodes, try to save my pod, big lag, yeah I'm dead..
Estimated total loss: <1.5B
I guess that belongs to "Knew the risk but did it anyway"

Edited by: Ben Dourion on 28/08/2011 19:15:33 Category 6 : Wife and 2 years old child aggro while doing World Collide Sansha side Loss : Vargur
Did not pay attention for 1 minute due to wife and child messing around my desk ( my little girl sometimes find it fun to push the power off button of the PC while Im on it
When I come back to my screen, Vargur shield is almost down and Im scrambled by 2 elite frigs, killed the first one then I explosed when the second one was in hull.
Needless to say I was not too happy about it, my wife come back in the room 5 minutes after and see me a bit upset, she ask : what's wrong ?
I say : nothing , just lost something , was not going to say I was ****ed off because I lost a valuable virtual spaceship
Cancelled the mission than warped back to get the can and salvage the wreck, just crap in it, lost as well the 3 RF gyros -))

Only around 600mil, but it was fairly early in my eve career.
Bought a Caldary Navy Raven (What was I thinking), mostly T2 fit with a few faction items. At crazy AM warped into a level 4 mission determined to try it out..
Woke up at 6.30am with QWERT imprinted on the side of my face and drool all over the keyboard, looking at my pod spinning in the center of the screen.

Lost my Black ops Widow.. #2 Knew better but did it anyway.
Corp CEO "Hey guys Goons are offering us a sweet system to rebase in"
I took Ceo aside & explained that this is what goons DO & this is most likely a trap.
He assures me he has talked with their CEO and is friends with many of their officers..
I take the day off work & entire corp is "escorted" to our doom..
Yeah I knew better...I tried to talk our CEO out of it..but I really shoulda just brought a cheap Scorp instead of my Widow.

I bought a Cynabal and was trying it out. So, I was running around lowsec when I found a shuttle on a gate. Thinking that it was a .4, I blew up the shuttle, and then died to CONCORD.
200 mil Cynabal for 10k ISK shuttle.

My worst one to date. Moving all my **** out of low sec once our corp had closed. Had to jump through one low sec system, that usually had the high sec gate camped. Was talking on Skype to a friend, while checking the area with my alt. Nothing in either system. So I send my full to the gunnels Orca to warp to gate. Orca's take a LONG time to warp. As I arrive on gate, someone has entered the system. Because I hadn't been paying attention (talking on Skype) I assume he had jumped through the gate. He pointed me right away. I didn't want to jump into his buddies. So I put ECM on him and tried to warp back to station / safe. But I was wedged on the damn gate and couldn't move. Local spiked, and the rest of his buddies warped in and BOOM.
My pal on Skype doesn't play eve, and was perplexed by my panic.
I came back in the only ranged fit ship I had (Rook) to try and pop some cans they were sifting through. Only got one, who knew Abaddons can hit that hard at 60km.
A case of Terribad timing, and about 2Bill. http://gunship.eve-kill.net/?a=kill_detail&kll_id=9628249
And one of the worst losses I have been privy too. A couple of my corp mates had just brought some pimped out ships. One definitely was a faction fitted Sleipner and the other maybe similar. Crystal sets in clones and everything, sparkly new from Jita. We jump into Kourmonen, WT cane jumps in from Auga, they start to light him up. He aggresses (not a good sign). And 30 Man WT fleet jumps in. Super lag fest, all three of us podded. I was just in a T2 Frigate, but clone wasn't up to date. That put the damper on PVP for a bit.

Edited by: Rohnann Varr on 30/08/2011 09:23:57 Yesterday, I've been popped and podded for the first time in my playing time (with the fourth character created since I first played. I never stuck to it long enough).
Twas a mix of 2. Knew the risks, 3. AFK and x. I was dumb and hang my head in shame.
I flew to a lowsec system, where I wanted to scan planets for ressource compositions. Knowingly, that I do not want my fitted, rigged thrasher (yes, I AM a new player) destroyed, I just jumped into a shuttle and scanned away.
In the middle of scanning I remembered that I do have remote scanning trained a bit further, so I scanned numerous planets while sitting next to a planet in the system at the point where I jumped in. After about 5-10 minutes a frigate jumped in and tackled me. The rest is obvious. No conversation.
I lost about 1500 LP and 1.5m ISK in cheap beginner implants and a 40.000 isk Shuttle, uninsured. I continued scanning from my home base afterwards.
I foresee worse (well, actually bad) ones in the future.

edit: I didn't realize I'd already posted in this thread. Anyway a repeat of the theft mentioned earlier is below, along with a bunch of other figures from other losses.
Categories 1 and 2: Lost a billion to theft because I trusted the wrong guy. Several people in the corp lost similar sums during the same event. The corp was relocating and this guy had a freighter and well you can guess the rest. I used it as an opportunity to get back to basics and stop filling my hangar with shiny things I never undock with anyway.
Category 1, 2, and 3: Autopiloted Dramiel through a 1.0 system with a -3 personal sec status. Fortunately it was unfitted so the loss at the time was maybe 75 mil.
Category 3 and 4 and sometimes 5: Dominix, Armageddon, Apocalypse, Maelstrom, another Dominix, and a Raven all lost in missions because I CBA to notice a new spawn of enemies that show up. Total loss probably under a billion. I've only ever lost one battleship in a mission that wasn't because of this reason.
Category 5: Bought a Vargur because I thought I was on the test server (I had both servers open at the time.) It may have registered with me that I was paying hundreds of millions of ISK for it, but I probably thought to myself "I'll just suicide a 100 ISK dreadnaught later for insurance." Even though I can't fly Marauders on TQ I was able to recoup about 95% of what I spent on it after putting it back up on the market. I make rash decisions on whisky so I'm guessing this was Canadian Club 6 Year Old.
Category 3 and 6: Lost a Worm that I had just bought to belt rats. Wasn't girlfriend aggro per se in a romantic sense although it was a close female friend who I got preoccupied instant messaging. This was pre-buff Worm though so the loss wasn't even 30 mil.
