Syndicate DMZ - Community Event for Eve Online, 26th September 2026
Syndicate has always been one of the coolest NPC regions in EVE, and it’s time to drag it back into the spotlight. On September 26th, we’re turning the region into an open warzone. Combat bounties will be active all day long, and we’re carving out a dedicated 5-hour operational window where high-stakes industry and exploration rewards go live, creating a true sandbox DMZ where industrialists, explorers, and killers alike can all get paid to have fun!
I’m personally backing it with a 20 billion ISK war chest & 3,000 PLEX. I'll also be running a massive art sale on the site all weekend in place of the old giveaway codes.
We also have some amazing sponsors on board:
TheMadRambo donated a whopping 2k PLEX to add to the prize pool and will be streaming on the day!! Make sure you pop over and give him a follow on his Twitch here.
Geo Eclipse Oksaras generously donated 1B extra ISK to the cause, which will be injected directly into live flash bounties.
The total rewards pool is distributed in the following way:
-
15B ISK in lucrative freelance industrial and exploration contracts to jumpstart the region.
-
5B ISK in direct combat bounties for the capsuleers hunting in the region.
-
4,000 PLEX in rewards for a solo PvP leaderboard.
-
1B ISK + 1,000 PLEX reserved for Live HVT Flash Bounties.
The DMZ runs on cooperation and conflict in equal measure, with Industrial and exploration rewards starting to go up around 14:00 EVE Time on the 26th. Updates will go on the website page, discord, and social posts. More details will be released on the day via the in-game channel "SyndicateDMZ" and my twitch stream Lloyd_George_art.
Live HVT Flash Bounties
Oksaras's 1B ISK and 1,000 PLEX will be used to fund Live High-Value Target (HVT) bounties. These targets will be called out dynamically and announced live on the ingame SyndicateDMZ channel throughout the event!
Solo PvP Leaderboard (4,000 PLEX Pool)


Solo PvP rewards will go to the top 3 solo PvPers on zKillboard.com for the whole day, and your kills will be judged so no cheesing! These competitors have one Golden Rule and are strictly barred from touching industrial hulls. Hunt the escorts, hunt the roamers, fight each other but leave the miners and haulers alone, or get stripped from the prize pool entirely. Protect the ecosystem, and everyone gets paid.
-
1st - 2000 PLEX
-
2nd - 1200 PLEX
-
3rd - 800 PLEX
All-Day Combat Bounties (5B ISK Pool)
Combat bounties will go up at 00:00 on the 26th and be listed under 6 freelance jobs (you’ll need to train freelance skill to level 3 to be able to accept them all, but level 4 or 5 would be best). Each job will be exhausted when the job's reward pool has run dry or its 7 days have passed, at which point the funds will return to the issuing Corporation for redistribution.
