i may want to train up another market alt in the near future and i was curious if there is a way to easily determine the standing increases from a mission's payouts. is the ISK reward proportional to the standings gain? maybe the LP reward or the time bonus? is there any other way of predicting the standing increase from a specific mission?

I should buy an Ishtar.

I have to say no.

There's just way too many variables affecting it such as Social skills, standings, agent location, agent division, etc.

Only CCP can answer that question and it's doubtful they'll share the info.

From what I've seen, for non-storyline missions, the standing gain seems to be roughly proportional to the rewards. That does not mean that it's an exact science and it won't allow you to calculate the gain in advance. But missions with higher rewards tend to have higher standing gains.

For storyline missions, it's all over the map. But the same storyline mission (same name) usually gives the same standing gain, so you can look it up online to know how much you'll get.

Yep you look at these and it just doesn't make any sense.

Things that keep me up at night;  Why do we use a voice communication device to send telegraphs? Moore's Law should state, Once you have paid off the last PC upgrade you will need another.

Probably due to completing missions for the same storyline agent. As your standing increases with that agent, so does the effect of your social skills which in turn affect the reward.

Not to mention there's other contributing factors as well, such as the amount of time spent to complete the mission.

Anyway, I still stand by my original reply in this thread which is no, there's too many variables involved.
