Crimson Harvest (2021)
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.

Combat Sites
Crimson Gauntlet
Crimson Gauntlet has the player engage Blood Raider NPCs. The site consists of 3 rooms, though you can take the shortcut acceleration gate to the final room if you have the Crimson Gauntlet Shortcut Keypass which can be found in the Crimson Harvest Network Node or Hub data sites. In the first room you land in the middle of an NPC group, once fully cleared the gate to the second room will open up. NPC ships use tacticals to bounce if you try to kite - you need to be able to tank the DPS and neut pressure. 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.
Similar to the first room the second room has you fight through an initial wave of enemies, but has up to 2 more waves afterward. The gate to the final room unlocks after the second wave. There are 9 Cthonic Attar asteroids, 1 has 500 x 16 m3 the other 8 only have 1 x 16 m3, but it is the same asteroids for each site.
The final room has you fight 2 waves until the Blood Raider Harvest Overseer warps in. Once the battleship is cleared any remaining ships will warp off. The 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). There are 18 Cthonic Attar asteroids in the final room each with 1 x 16 m3. Overall there is approximately 12.4 million ISK in bounties for a full clear.
To summarize, 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
Tetrimon Base
The principles mentioned for the Crimson Gauntlet apply here as well. The highest DPS opponents you will be facing deal primarily EM damage, especially the Oracle will hit you pretty hard if you don't have good EM resists. The bigger NPCs (cruisers, battlecruisers, final spawn) in this site have the following resist profile:
- Hull: 33% Omni
- Armor: 55% EM, 43% Thermal, 38% Kinetic, 35% Explosive
- Shield: 0% EM, 20% Thermal, 40% Kinetic, 50% Explosive
