Missions & Complexes

or idk, check http://eve-survival.org

Corporate standing gain/loss is a percentage of the difference between your CURRENT standing (before connections skill is taking into account) and +1.0 or -1.0 and it therefore changes with your standings. The amount is also dependant on the current level of your social skill.

If you are tracking LP note that the LP gained is higher in lower security systems. For example 0.5 agents give almost twice the LP of 1.0 agents.

Don't spend SoE LP on implants. Seriously. If you're short probes... hell, I'll gift you 10. I should have them laying around in Simela. The return on SoE-specific items is just miles ahead of generic things like implants that any LP store can get you.

There are just so many odd disconnects in this thread. I'm not even sure where to start.

Edit: dead serious on the probes. If you want them, send a mail.

Completely agree, especially SOE mission hubs are often heavily pirated, more than any other mission hub. It's only worth it to get the special SOE items, then just go someplace else to mission quietly for the common items. Even if running cargo ships passing by, best to stay clear.

You can say that again, sister.

Hey, it's your game.

The general suggestion, in case it didn't make sense, is this: Use the relatively high conversion rate SoE LP to get items that sell well. Use the proceeds to buy what you need from people who cash out relatively poor conversion LP. You end up with the same stuff plus extra cash in your pocket.

But like I said, it's your game. Play as you will. Reject all the friendly advice you want. We really are trying to help, but if it seems useless to you -- well, that's fine.

Ohh yes yes yes of course. Actually something my fellow countrymen want nothing to do with, not to be involved in at all, the majority here (US). And many of my peers I fear really don't have a complete understanding of the situation other than what certain mainstream news outlets tell them and nothing more. Quite disturbing, yes. There is just a lot of motivation over the history of the region for those there, and people here seem to forget that and then don't understand why. Well hopefully it doesn't come to anything with global reach.


But anyway, on the topic, 700m+ seems like a high cost to start an alt up to the point you are at. 100m for me was plenty since I'm not compensating the lack of SP with more expensive ship fittings. So having more SP means that less ISK needed spent on the ship etc. But that is just for low-SP training, then when complete the alt goes into FW and can hopefully self-sustain. About the only thing I'll add after training is a stack of ready-fit pvp ships.

But really, when it comes to lvl3 missions, most of the interest is on two primary points 1. Standing gains, and 2. getting to lvl4 missions as fast as possible. I suppose those two points can be related, but in reality, if someone already can do lvl4 missions, doing lbl3 missions provide the fastest standings gain. But compared to LP or ISK earnings, they are very-very low compared to lvl4 missions, so most don't care about those points.

That's really the difference between lvl3 and lvl4 at least. Within the frame of lvl3 missions, related to themselves, some harder and some easy, the differences in LP and ISK gains are marginal, hardly worth the difference to note. lvl4 missions it can be a bit different, such as ISK gains in 0.5 security space it can range form around 2 million ISK to over 30 million ISK per mission. And not even counting the LP differences which can be quite large. But standings gains are not as good compared to lvl3 missions that can be done very quickly, so many turn to lvl3 missions to grind standings beyond what lvl4 missions can offer at the slower pace.

70 units left in Mobile Tractor Unit (MTU) which won't fit in the hold.

Edit 2 @ 18:44:
2nd round, + 3m+ loot
And 600k ISK , wrecks.
Over 4 hours and many hacks to fix, around 20 to 100.
Totally worthless to test, logging off.
Even the forums is hacked. It would never work unless I made external backup.

Edit 5 @ 19:24:
Almost forgot, check the LP:
Mechanics V completes over the 24 hour mark on Tuesday morning, before around 11 pm.
2d 11 hours =

The Sisters Combat probes are only worth 400k max which makes them worthless at 1.2m purchase.
Except in null sec maybe, unless they are useful to use.
They sell for less on the market though, 740k instead of 1.2m.
Obviously, there are too many, or the generosity towards those is strong in standing (numerical ratio).

I made 3 million, paid 5m for the +3 Memory.


Edit 6 @ 19:30:
2d 11 hours with the +3 Mem.
14m ISK left
