In terms of all things industry based (production, research, accessibility - i.e. jump clone installation) which NPC corporation(s), excluding the Caldari Navy, are the best ones to have high standings with in Amarr/ Caldari space? Which NPC corporations have the most stations throughout Amarr/ Caldari or are just the best ones to have standings with...again, please ignore Caldari Navy. Please state why a specific corporation(s) are best in your eyes.


Thanks in advance,
Cheers o/

Expert Distribution is a great one, they have stations all over the place, including Minmatar, Gallente and NPC Null. Also, getting personal standing to 5 with them also unlocks the Caldari epic arc (without having to grind faction standing).

The only downside is that you will be very disappointed once you grind up to level 4 missions and discover that they only have 1 security agent (in null) and every other level 4 agent is distribution, unless that's your thing.

Thank you for your suggestions, I will definitely keep them in mind

JC access to null could certainly add some good fun for an indy guy such as myself :)

Unfortunately Expert Distribution doesn't have decent level 4 combat agents anymore.

Essentially corps that supply generic products that all factions require: food, drink, implants, arms, hauling, news, entertainment, etc. Some research corps also get around, like Kaalakiota.

Police forces and navies always have combat agents, but don't have stations everywhere. Schools always have good stations but are also localized, and typically have courier agents now.

One time bump to fix forum.
