The FW plexes have Navy NPCs guarding them and I'm pretty sure they drop tags.

Pirate Missions for Serpentis and Angel Cartel


Running Pirate missions makes you come face to face nearly every mission with Mini and Gallente NPC`S

which in turn drop the tags you are requesting Republic and Federation Tags.

in the one mission Navy Armada which is a relatively quick mission about 15 minutes - you receive about 80mil in Federation Tags.

any issues or unsure how to start up mission running in any pirate faction please ask me, i can assist you

thanks

you can do what I did for 6 months lol

2 accounts.

6 chars in total.

each with standings to get enemies abound.

keep asking for missions every four hours till all 6 chars have it..

run all of them till EA 3/5
run all 6 ea 3/5 for 7 days and in some cases... after every server reset.

on the 7th day... petition each char as a non spawning mission. gm's will kindly reset it for ya..

run 3/5 x6 for another week.
this used to net me some 2+b a week in salvage/loot/tags :)

a gm finally caught onto me and said I should not be farming THIS mission in the way I was.. that was after 6 months of "petitions" lol didn't think iw ould get away with it for 2 weeks let alone 6 months.


otherwise...

do lvl 5 missions in low sec.
do pirate missions in null.

If you pick a decent mission running location you'll have enough agents to pick and choose only missions against navies. Most of the non-navy ones are a waste of time :)

Any idea as to which l4 missions give a decent amount of the expensive Caldari and Amarr tags?

Nerfing High-sec is never the answer. It is the question. The answer is 'YES'.

I told the gm that we need more antifaction missions as on a good day I would get this mission once a week.. that's about every 75 missions.. that aint gonna do it..

imo all high sec missions combat missions should be anti faction.. and bounty style missions should be low sec..

Yeah, that was pretty shrewd but I'm gonna agree with Ginger Barbarella.

Also it makes sense to have the Anti-Pirate encounter missions in high security since it's a battle against organized crime cartels. The Anti-Empire encounter missions should be held in low security just like Factional Warfare.

I believe you got that backwards..
pirates should not be in high sec.

even by that method of thinking nor should opposing faction bs's etc.

maybe if mission had a 10% increase in bounties the lower you get into low sec etc... 0.4 +10% , 0.3 +20%, 0.2 +30% and 0.1 +40% in bounties.

You guys should have seen the missions for Thukker before the big change.

Missions against Concord, Minmatar and Gallente were the most common missions offered., and in high security. Made my first few billions running those.

Yeah, I remember those missions. That's main reason why Thukker Tribe was considered a Pirate Faction and hated by all Factions. Thukker Shield Extenders were big sellers in exchange for tanked standings.

In fact, 'The Plan' was created due to running Thukker Tribe missions.

By the way, I like your signature :

It's actually from an old Chinese Proverb which states :

Quote:
Be careful of your thoughts, for your thoughts become your words.
Be careful of your words, for your words become your actions.
Be careful of your actions, for your actions become your habits.
Be careful of your habits, for your habits become your character.
Be careful of your character, for your character becomes your destiny.


No truer words were ever written.

I think it should end with :

Be careful of your Destiny, for your Destiny is within Eve.
