Burn Jita 2019 Kicks Off

Is downtime over yet?  If so, then Burn Jita 2019 is live.

Will CCP warn people with their shiny new launcher?

I warned you a couple of weeks back that the event was on its way.  Well, today is the day.

If you want to see freighters exploding, it is a good time to hang around the gates in Jita.  Watch for a swarm of Coercer destroyers either landing nearby or passing through a gate to hit something on the other side.

You can follow them to see the pretty explosions, and even shoot them if you like.  Free killmails if you get a blow in before CONCORD finishes them off.

Coercers going up en masse… might as well shoot them

But the big explosions will come from the many freighters and jump freighters that will be blowing up.

Just be sure you don’t hit the target by mistake.  Then CONCORD will be after you too.

It will be a good weekend for space tourists, the explosion curious, and those looking to pad their killmail count.

If you’re hauling goods in a freighter though… it might be a good weekend to take off.
