Missions & Complexes

I started doing Caldari Cosmos missions years ago. I got bored and stopped doing them, but I wanted to try completing them all in the near future. I was wondering if there is an easy way to find out which agents have already been done because I can't remember which ones I already did and want to save a little time. Any suggestions?

There's a couple of different ways to check but the easiest way is to open the info window for the agent and check the standings tab. Scroll down to view the agent standing towards you. If the amount is negative or positive, then you've already interacted with that agent. If the standing is 0.00 then the agent is probably available.

You can also check the 'Liked by' tab in the 'Standings' section of your character sheet for the name of the agent. Also 'People & Places' should have the agent listed too. However, after interacting with various agents over time those become filled with a lot of names and searching for a specific agent will take a lot of time.

When I was doing Cosmos, I made a list of all agents in the notepad and when one was active, I would make a note (working) next to that agents name. When completed, I'd remove the agents name from the list.

If you don't get a mission offered and you're positive you've never interacted with that agent, file a support ticket. If the GM responds with a reply saying that you have, ask for the support ticket to be escalated to a Senior GM. Hopefully the Senior GM will fix it for you.

Back when the 'Agents Made Easy' expansion was introduced, Cosmos Agents got messed up and eventually CCP sorta fixed them. In my opinion they are still a bit buggy. I've had some agents not offer me a mission until after GM intervention. Even after that there was still a few agents who wouldn't offer the 1st mission but would offer the 2nd, 3rd, etc. There was also a couple of agents who just flat out refused to offer a mission despite the efforts of the GM. Like I said, Cosmos Agents are still a bit buggy.

Also before that 'Agents Made Easy' expansion, Cosmos Agents would allow you to decline their 1st mission offer in which you could go back at a later time and have it re-offered. After that expansion and the 'Fix', they now view a decline as a fail or quit.

These missions can only be completed once in the life of the character for Faction standing increase so make sure you have plenty of time to complete them. The mission offer can stay active in your Mission Journal without accepting it for 7 days. That will allow time to get the mission item first before having to accept the mission offer. After it's accepted, you have another 7 days to complete it. Do that whenever possible. Check your journal after completing 1st mission before requesting part 2, 3, etc. Those parts will be offered automatically so once again, make sure you have plenty of time to complete the mission series before you talk to the agent.

Most of the Cosmos mission items can be bought from Public Contracts if needed.

Remember - Do not fail, quit, decline or let these mission offers expire. It could lock out access to other Agents.

Good luck to you.
