TACTICAL KILLBOARD

The last 90 days of kills read for hunters: where the prey is, how well defended it is, and what hour it dies.

Hunting: where a ship gets used

Pick a hull, a pilot or both and see the systems where it is flown, the hours, how often it goes solo and with how many wingmen, from 90 days of killmails. Saved hunts send a push alert.

Every killboard tells you where a ship died. This lens answers the question a hunter actually asks: where is that ship being flown, and when. Pick a hull, a pilot or both, and it reads every killmail in the last 90 days where that hull, or that pilot, appears among the attackers.

What comes back is a pattern of life: the systems it works, the hours of the day it is active, how often it flies alone and how many others usually fly with it. That is the information you need to be in the right system at the right time, rather than reading about the kill afterwards.

A ship, a pilot, or both

With a ship only, the lens shows where that hull is used across New Eden and who flies it most, each pilot with the system and region they take it to.

With a pilot only, it shows the hulls they fly and where they fly each one.

With both, it narrows to that pilot in that ship: they must be on the same entry of the attackers list, not merely on the same killmail.

Quick filters for the rare targets

Some hunts are about a family of ships rather than one hull.

The quick filters cover the Alliance Tournament ships and the three capital classes: dreadnoughts, supercarriers and titans.

For the capitals the filter also keeps only kills with ten or fewer attackers, because a titan on a killmail with fifty attackers is a sovereignty battle, which belongs in the battle report tool, while one with three is a hot drop or a careless pilot, which is what this lens is for.

Saved hunts and alerts

A hunt you have composed can be saved and turned into a push notification: when a new killmail matches it, you are told within seconds of it reaching our archive.

Hunts can be muted for the night without being deleted, and a burst of matching kills is summarised instead of sending one notification per kill.

Frequently asked questions

Why does it look at the attackers and not the victims?

Because a ship that is killing is a ship that is flying there now. Losses tell you where a ship was caught; kills tell you where it hunts, which is where you want to be.

How far back does it go?

90 days, which is the window of our own killmail archive. A pilot who has not killed anything in that time does not appear, and that means no data, not a harmless pilot.

Do I need an account?

No for searching. Saving a hunt and receiving alerts needs notifications enabled in your browser.

Why do two pilots in the same ship count as two ships?

Because a pilot flies one ship at a time. Counting distinct pilots tells you how many of that hull are really out there, which is the number that decides whether to engage.
