On July 14, it has been 6 years since the last room in the Abyss had 2 gates. This was also the birth of the request to bring back the old arena, which was accessible through a 2nd gate in the last room of an abyssal deadspace site.
This year, Amarr Empire is hosting it, togheter with Blood Raiders, Sansha’s Nation, Sisters of EVE, EDENCOM and Air Laboratories. A tradition like in the past years also continues in this event: 3 Fedos are looking for a new home!

A: Yes, but only in the live raffles, on the passive track raffles, everyone can win once per raffle.

Yeah no thank you. I dont see how fishing for more viewers with a raffle is an ingame event. Or trying to promote content that no longer exists is…

Also what is this? “This year, Amarr Empire is hosting it, togheter with Blood Raiders, Sansha’s Nation, Sisters of EVE, EDENCOM and Air Laboratories.”

We just ignoring lore now?

This Event has taken place in this exact form over the past 6 years already and is independent of the lore. This event is also not meant to fish views or solely promote content that no longer exists or whatever. It is also not related to the lore. It has always been one of the 4 Empire, togheter with all pirate faction that need the skill of that empire to fly their ships. In case of Amarr it is Blood Raider, Sansha and SOE. As the Amarr Empire only has 3 pirate factions requiring their skills, I added EDENCOM and AIR Laboratories on top of them, so that over the years all the events have about the same amount of unique factions.

I also wanna add that this event has been known to bring several new viewers to the EVE category on Twitch, which does not only help me, but all other creators too (over the raids at stream end).

If you don’t like the event, no problem, but many enjoyed these giveaways in the past years.

Steveshaven has big giveaways every time he streams and I quit watching it because I’ve got 40 billion and nothing to spend it on. My play is mostly ice mining for an hour or two and daily goals for 4 characters. I did enjoy capsuleer day 23 completing the tracks for all 4 solely by hi-sec exploration in a heron. If your streams are just giveaways, loud offensive music, and f this and f that, I won’t be tuning in.
