so ive been running missions out of Osmon for a while now and ive gotten the exact same storyline mission 3 times in a row. a 6 jump hauling mission that takes 2 trips in an iteron 5. this time it wanted me to go to low sec. srsly CCP get your crap together and fix what i PRAY is a glitch, enough is enough.

Shocked


Was the mission pay and reward the same in each mission? Was the destination of cargo the same in each mission? Was the cargo type the same in each mission?

If it was the same reward that sucks if it was not you could stage it at low sec and run it in with a fast cloaky or not guess that is a lot of work but if was a great % to faction standing it is worth it. Plus better rewards. If the rewards are the same which I suppose they were then yeah that sucks.

It is not a glitch, and lowsec is not very dangerous if you take appropriate precautions,. An established camp is likely to show up on map stats, cannot deploy warp disrupter bubbles, mwd/warp will usually get a regular hauler away from a gate safely if an aggressive random just happens to cross paths, and a covops is awfully good at scouting routes, making undock instas and the like. Frigates will often pass through camps simply because the camp doesn't have the setup to lock them fast enough.

I've lost 2 haulers in lowsec to cargo storylines, and both were my fauilt - in both cases stabs would have got the hauler away fast enough to survive (as the opponent was not in position to bump), and an undock insta (from a station that I have visited before), would probably have prevented me being locked in the first place.

I've done that mission in low sec a couple of times. It's good pay. Scout the route first.

Gasp! A mission taking you to Lowsec!?

How terrible!! Clearly, this is a glitch and in no way, a part of the game!

How may I drug you with drugs?

Just do the darn mission and move on.
