Parade
During the event, special event beacons with a Minmatar fleet (composed of static structures of various Minmatar ships) were spawned. They were named after the Titan of the fleet, and appeared as a beacon in space as "RFS <titan name> Liberation Parade".
The systems where parades took place (alongside the titan name and in-system location) were:
- Rens (RFS Maiori Kul-Brutor, ~220 km off of Rens VI - Moon 8 - Brutor Tribe Treasury)
- Hek (RFS Oskla Shakim, ~230km off of Hek IV - Krusal Tribe Bureau)
- Eram (RFS Karin Midular, within 250km of Eram IX - Moon 4 - Sebiestor Tribe Bureau)
- Teonusade (RFS Shara Osali, ~190km off Teonusude VII - Moon 1 - Vherokior Tribe Treasury)
- Pator (RFS Drupar Maak, In orbit of Pator IV (Matar))
- Altrinur (RFS Jornal Kehok, 250km off of Altrinur XI - Moon 3 - Thukker Mix Factory)
- Hjoramold (RFS Brecin Utulf, in orbit of Hjoramold VII)
On 11 July 2020, all pilots were given a task to shoot fireworks at a predetermined titan among the listed locations. Pilots received 5k SP directly for their efforts.
Each titan had a description that provided background on their namesake. They can be accessed here.
