Does being in FW kill SOE arc run-ability?

The title essentially....

I ask because I just realized I have the SOE and I think blood stained something epic arcs still... I am apart of the Minnie militia.

XD just wondering...

It's not what your Alliance can do for you... It's what you can do to them before they realize you really work for the almighty WormHole God, BoB...

"No standings with the Sisters of EVE are required to start this arc."

...... You must not understand. Being in FW effectively cuts the amount of hisec you can enter safely by 1/2. The Amarr and Caldari hate and will shoot us on site should we enter their hisec... And leaving FW isn't an option! Free WTs for life :D

Oh my bad. Well yeah negative standings towards the empire navies will bring aggro.

I thought it cut high sec by 25%. If I were to join the Minnie militia, I could not go to Amarr space but couldn't I still go to Caldari?

Being in faction warfare makes you an enemy of the opposing 2 factions. So you will get chased by their navies.

CONCORD Assembly faction standings are worthy of being kept above -5.00 when contemplating the SoE Epic arc.

It's designed to be run by noobs fresh out of tutorial chains. Noobs don't join FW that fast.

The entire arc can be run in an AF so the enemy navies won't bother you if you don't hang around outside gates and stations. The only real threat would be enemy FW players in hs

If you want to run the SoE arc, best to leave the FW. If not, you will be constantly attacked by NPC Faction Navy which will make it really tough to complete the SoE Epic Arc missions.

After completing the arc, you can always rejoin FW.

The NPC Faction Navy will also warp into the mission sites.

Ah, memories of joining faction warfare immediately after the career agents as a noob, because that's what they told me to do. Every time I tried to do an SOE arc mission, I would cross paths with a war target and get blown to bits.

Atleast one of my attackers was nice enough to tell me the connection between faction warfare and being attacked anyplace at any time. It wasn't a good intro to PVP :)

But yes, drop faction warfare for the arc and then rejoin, there's no penalty.
