Tachyonic Capsuleers,

Do you like your combat close-up, chaotic, and on the edge of control? Then head over to the Abyssal Proving Grounds for a four-player Thorax free-for-all from 24 June-to-26 June.

Hosted as part of the Federation Day celebration, this Proving Grounds round has been structured to emphasize the close combat that Thoraxes excel at. To really focus the action on getting up-close-and-personal, all ships that enter this Proving Grounds round will receive a bonus that decreases turret optimal range by 50%, and increases turret falloff by 50%, meaning you’ll need to focus on close-quarters attacks.

And there also happens to be a 40km wide tachyon cloud lurking in the centre of the arena, which dramatically increases your speed. Ships in the cloud will see velocity lift 300%, while inertia will drop by 50%.

Close range combat and wild fluctuations in speed? This round will bring chaos and fun to all who join in!

While in the arena they...

Constructive Capsuleers,

The EVE community has been challenged! The players of Star Citizen have the pilots of New Eden in their sights, and we need to respond with... LEGO® bricks!

The EVE team adore LEGO® – many of us built our first spaceships from the plastic bricks long before New Eden was brought to life. When we saw the Star Citizen team share an amazing LEGO® custom build from their community, we couldn’t resist playfully suggesting bringing a LEGO® Venture to the party.

SC, can I bring a Venture? 😘 #tweetfleet http...

Battle-hungry Capsuleers!

To mark Anger Games 5, another intense Proving Grounds awaits you. This time, you’ll need to fit your best battleships and go toe-to-toe in a 1v1 showdown scheduled for 12 June.

To spice things up, you and your opponents will enjoy double the benefits of overheating the following module groups:

• Tackle Modules
• Propulsion modules
• Repair Modules
• Resistance Modules
• Energy Warfare Modules
• Turrets
• Launchers

In other words, expect this one to go off with a bang!

A tough challenge demands juicy rewards, of course. Dish out at least 15,000 damage to your opponent, and you’ll receive a 100m ISK reward for your efforts. Even better, the challenge is repeatable, giving you the opportunity to make some serious bank throughout the day.

As always, there are certain restrictions to keep you on your toes when planning your fits. You won’t be able to enter the combat ...

First-class Capsuleers,

The Abyssal Proving Grounds are home to some of the most dramatic, entertaining and energetic PvP action New Eden has to offer. And for 11 June only, they are open for an event that’s perfect for new pilots... and nostalgic veterans that like a unique challenge.

If you’re new to EVE Online, or still to taste the thrill of Proving Grounds combat, this is the event for you and your starter ship. And if you’ve put hundreds of hours into mastering competitive play, it’s time to prove how skilful you really are by showing what’s possible with a classic corvette and a friend.

2v2 corvette combat is the focus, meaning diving into the action at the helm of one of EVE’s most basic, underpowered spacecraft – the corvette that is every Capsuleer's first class of ship. The result will be fun and frantic in equal measure, as pilots join this ...

Assiduous Capsuleers,

Multiple Character Training (MCT) has been refurbished fresh for 2022. An MCT is a convenient way for you to train an alternative character without losing time on your main and without the hassle of a second account!

When you purchase Multiple Character Training through the EVE Store, you'll receive a certificate that will enable an additional character on that account to train at the same time! This means less time juggling accounts, and training queues, and an easy way to start training the alternative character that you’ve always planned to make.

With these new updates to MCT, you are able to purchase packs of MCT in 1, 2, 3, 6, 12, or 24 increments, just like with Omega! This adds more convenience and eliminates the worry about when your traini...
