Guardian's Gala (2019) is the latest edition of the yearly Guardian's Gala event, which took place from 12 February to 25 February 2019.

The description, from the EVE Game Events site:

The return of the Guardian's Gala presents new and exciting challenges, visuals and content! Enjoy exclusive rewards such as the rare Domination, Shadow Serpentis and Deadspace modules, Spirit SKINs, new Facial Augmentations, Inquest Hedone and Eros implants as well as Boosters and Cerebral Accelerators. Get them from the Agency reward track or by trading in specified items at special Paradise Club structures for Guardian's Gala Surprise Gifts featuring exclusive rewards! The notorious Angel Cartel and Serpentis pirate factions are once again conducting their annual celebrations, so Capsuleers are urged to crash the party and share the spoils!

Event site

Guardian Angels Barachael.


Initial defenders
WD EWAR L


Frigate 5 x Frigate Guardian Angels Jeremael Stasis Webifier
Cruiser 5 x Cruiser Guardian Angels Jehoel Target Painter
Sentry 4 x Sentry Gala Missile Battery

Like in previous events new defenders warp in so that the total defenders are ten (if not killed). Probably a certain number of defenders has to be killed until the boss spawns. In previous events one cruiser counted as two frigates.


Spawns
WD EWAR L


Frigate ? x Frigate Guardian Angels Jeremael Stasis Webifier
Cruiser ? x Cruiser Guardian Angels Jehoel Target Painter

Eventually, the boss battleship will also warp in. The boss is either a battlecruiser or a battleship.

At the center of the site lies the Paradise Club.
Open the "container" (right click and choose "access") and a menu will open. In here you can exchange one ticket, 5x Tricarboxyls, and 25 million ISK for a random reward.

Spawns

Station 1 x Paradise Club Random reward exchange.
Asteroid 8 x Amethystic Crystallite

VIP Guardian's Gala site

This variant has spawns either Khaitetha's Nidhoggur or Otuwiri's Thanatos in the end. The Thanatos does not share the resist profile of the other rats is weakest to kinetic/thermal as it's usual for Serpentis.

The Nidhoggur has 1111 HP/s peak raw passive shield regen (more EHP/s against non EX damage due to resists). You need more than this amount of dps to break its tank. The Thanatos has only 222 HP/s passive shield tank so you can slowly kill it even with a weaker ship.

Amethystic Crystallite

The event sites contain Amethystic Crystallite asteroids which can be mined for their ore. Each site has been reported to have approximately 2500 units (7500 m3) of ore.

Amethystic Crystallite can be reprocessed into Chromodynamic Tricarboxyls at a rate of 1000 units of ore (3000 m3) for 2 units of Tricarboxyl. Of which half is wasted due to reprocessing efficiency. The reprocessing yield can be improved by Veldspar Processing[1].

Chromodynamic Tricarboxyls are needed for cerebral booster manufacturing and to receive the random reward from Paradise Club.

The event also has challenges that will reward you with points and other items.

Notes

In the first few hours, the battleship was doing over 3,000 DPS due to its rate of fire being misconfigured. It was eventually fixed, and people who lost ships to it received reimbursements.

The event mineral yield per m³ is 5x lower per than in Operation Permafrost, which in turn was 2x lower than in Crimson Harvest (2018).

Some people are also experiencing issues with new challenges not appearing after old ones are completed.
