It needs to be parsed, every item in Eve has an item ID that the game translates to something you can understand. You’ve got a presence on Zkillboard but your recent loss isn’t showing, I don’t know if you’ve submitted an API key or if your presence if down to others with already submitted keys. > **[Path Starbreaker | Character](https://zkillboard.com/character/2113205882/)** > > Path Starbreaker: 3 ships destroyed and 11 ships lost. > **[zkillboard.com / Faq | Information](https://zkillboard.com/information/faq/)** > > zkillboard.com is a killboard for the Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game (MMORPG) EVE-Online.

Try getting podded with a full set of Genolution core implants because you undocked in a pod, with a criminal timer. That hurt; at today’s prices somewhere in the region of 700 million isk. ---

Your astero fit is solid, that heron fit is just specifically fit to bait and kill astero. I’ve occasionally seen that, and similar, herons around, but most herons do not fit or fly like that. You just had bad luck that this was your first. Keep up the good work protecting archeological sites from looters! ---

I’ve not real all of the replies, I’m lazy, but you encountered a battle Heron. Generally equiped with T2 rockets and some ancillary shield boosters (when used in WH space) Your Dual repped cap boosted Astero should with this if used right and it’s the “if used right” where he got you. He probably took out your drones and you didn’t realize it. It takes a ton of experience and a bunch of understanding to become a good pvper, dying/failing is part of that process. The fact that you tried in the first place already means that you’re pvping. You generally find Battle Herons in obvious locations, so like a direct WH very close to a trade hub like Jita and always sitting near the WH itself or at a planet. You don’t see too many of them though so you really just got unlucky to end up in this situation and then you lacked the experience to win. Which is to be expected. At the very least it shows you that you don’t win by using X ship, you win by being better prepared for X situation. ---
