EVENT INFO - GAURDIAN'S GALA (12 FEB 2019 11:15 - 25 FEB 2019 11:00 GMT)

NORMAL SITE
The normal site appears on your overview in ANY system as 'Gaurdian's Gala'. Make sure beacons are ticked in your overview settings.

There are 4 missile batteries, several webbing frigates and a couple cruisers on warpin. Having around 250 EHP/Sec EXP/KIN tank is recommended. You should deal EXP damage.

Frigates and Cruisers will respawn for a few waves then a BC boss will spawn.
The BC boss drops a ticket, which can be traded along with 13Misk and 5 chromo for items in a crate. You access the Astrahus (Paradise Club) structures cargo on grid to do this trade. Other ships may drop tickets too. There may be a BS boss spawn which does 330 dps.

VIP SITE
There is a VIP site called 'VIP Gaurdian's Gala', which spawns a carrier boss.

You should fire kinetic damage at the Thantos boss or explosive damage at the Nidhoggur boss, the fighters do exp/kin damage. The Nidhogger has 1100 hp/sec shield regen (explosive).

Each fighter does 84 dps and there may be approximately 9 fighters so, ~760 dps all up from a carrier. If you kill one fighter, 9 more are launched, so best concentrate on the carrier and make sure you have enough tank for at least 9 fighters.

The item trade costs 25M from VIP sites and drops better loot. You can turnin tickets from normal sites here too for better loot, as there is only 1 ticket type.
MINING
To mine ore. Amethystic Crystallite, you have to activate the 'flourite' asteriods in your overview settings to see the asteroids. They are available in both normal and vip gala sites. The ore is not bugged, just very low yield on purpose, see ccp reddit post.
