Crimson Harvest (2018)

The Crimson Harvest is an recurring event involving the Blood Raiders pirate faction. In 2018 the event runs from October 23rd through to November 5th.

Event sites

The event has two types of event sites that spawn in all areas of normal space (high sec, low sec and null sec) but not in wormholes. The sites appear as warpable beacons in space.

Crimson Gauntlet

When you warp in there are few frigates present in site. Destroy the shield emitter structures to start the chain of spawns.

The next wave may be triggered before the current wave is completely dead, or long time after the current wave dies.

Initial defenders

		WD	EWAR	L
	0-2 x Frigate Blood Raider Frigate
	0-2 x Frigate Deathglow Bottomfeeder
	3 x Cookhouse Shielding Projector

Wave (x4)

		WD	EWAR	L
	0-4 x Frigate Blood Raider Frigate
	0-2 x Frigate Deathglow Bottomfeeder

	0-3 x Cruiser Deathglow Filth Raker

	0-2 x Battleship Deathglow Scumlord

Crimson Harvest Fields

This site type is gated but the acceleration gate has no restrictions. The gate is not even locked so you can ignore the warpin frigates. The space is deadspace so warping within the site is not possible and all warps from outside will land on the gate.

Warpin

Initial defenders

		WD	EWAR	L
	0-2 x Frigate Blood Raider Frigate
	0-2 x Frigate Deathglow Bottomfeeder
	1 x Gate to the pocket

Pocket

Initially the pocket has no rats in it. Approaching the asteroid field near the station or shooting the silo structures will each trigger single wave. Four waves in total.

Triggering all waves at once is not recommended unless you have very strong ship.

The site also has eight clusters of Cthonic Attar asteroids. Totaling around 38k units of Cthonic Attar.

The site will despawn soon after all rats are killed and last ship warps off. If you wish to mine after clearing the site make sure there is at least one pilot in site at all times.
