How it works - comment or Evemail me (Meridian Harper) with something you don’t want to keep.  The only rule I’ll place on this is […]

The biggest bonus for the Minmatar ships […]

Where’s my loot?

Friday, December 8th, 2006

Since Revalations chapter 1 came online I’ve found that looting is a bit of a pain in the butt.
One of the minor problems they patched, straight away, is you couldn’t tag which wrecks you’d already investigated, but one of the bigger problems, and an issue I think will affect new players, is that the ‘drop […]
