Crimson Harvest is a recurring event involving the Blood Raiders pirate faction and the Tetrimon mercenaries. In 2021, the event ran from October 28th through to November 9th, downtime to downtime, and was announced as part of EVE's Halloween Horrors. The event merged the traditional Crimson Harvest event site and rewards with a higher loot drop from PvP and structure losses (90% instead of 50%) and special wreck icons from the Trick or Treat event from the year before.

Crimson Gauntlet:

The Crimson Gauntlet features Blood Raider NPCs. Their resists, from weakest to strongest, are: EM/Thermal/Kinetic/Explosive. You will be facing a variety of NPC ships. You land in the middle of an NPC group, NPC ships use tacticals to bounce if you try to kite - you need to be able to tank the DPS and neut pressure.

• Harvest Overseer (BS) - scrams, webs, neuts. Outgoing damage: 50% EM, 50% Thermal. Neuts ~300 GJ/5s at 5 km range. <-- boss spawn, after killing it every remaining ship in site warps out.
• Harvest Diviner (BC) - scrams. Outgoing damage: 40% EM, 32% Thermal, 28% Explosive. <-- high DPS spawn, if your tank is borderline you might want to kill this quickly.
• Harvest Sage (C) - neuts, webs. Outgoing damage: 60% EM, 40% Thermal. Neuts ~55 GJ/5s at 13 km range.
• Harvest Prophet (C) - scrams. Outgoing damage: 60% EM, 40% Thermal.
• Harvest Cleric (D) - scrams. Outgoing damage: 50% EM, 50% Thermal.
• Harvest Savior (F) - neuts, webs. Outgoing damage: 40% EM, 27% Thermal, 34% Explosive. Neuts ~15 GJ/5s at 4 km range.
• Harvest Follower (F) - scrams. Outgoing damage: 40% EM, 27% Thermal, 34% Explosive.
• Harvest Shepherd (F) - webs, neuts. Outgoing damage: 40% EM, 27% Thermal, 34% Explosive. Neuts ~15 GJ/5s at 4 km range.
• Harvest Exsanguinator (F) - no EWAR. Outgoing damage: 1% EM, 1% Thermal, 98% Explosive.

All the NPCs fight at a range below 20 km, they usually try to get close and orbit you, Frigates at ~5km, Cruisers at ~10km. Harvest Exsanguinators are an exception with 15-20km engagement range. The final spawn, Harvest Overseer webs at 20km range and applies good damage thanks to its web. It applies a neut pressure of ~300 GJ at 5km every 5 seconds (neut value is an approximation, needs to be double-checked).

To summarise, your ship needs to be able to:

• tank upwards of 300 DPS, at least at the beginning of the site
• deal with several neuting ships at once, especially the final spawn applies serious neut pressure
• resist primarily EM/Thermal damage types
• engage a swarm of small(-er) targets at close range, you will usually have to deal with more frigates than anything

Repeatable
Halt the Harvest 2/3 = ? Points = Kill 10 Blood Raider/Tetrimon ships within a Crimson Gauntlet/Tetrimon Combat site
Halt the Harvest 3/3 = ? Points = Kill the Blood Raider/Tetrimon Commander Battleship
