So, my corp is at war with some serious bisness space pilots that are not undocking in the overwhelming force of two ships on their favorite undock.

I thought this was the perfect time to try Missioning in a different part of space for a change.

So i pack my bags and say goodbye to Caldari Navy and Motsu and head towards Amar space, Domain.

YES, this will be fun, i love lasers afterall, shooting sanshas and Blood Raiders will be so much fun.

So, in my excitement, i find out that the agents at Amarr Navy REALLY need my help shooting.....

THE GALLENTE NAVY....

THE MINMATAR NAVY....

THE GURISTAS....

To be honest, it feels like im still missioning for Caldari Navy.

What the HECK is going on here?

Not really anything going on, that's just how eve is.

If you head to minmatar agents they'll give you more missions to kill angels, caldari, and amarr, while the gallente agents, by and large, will prefer you to kill caldari, amarr, serpentis. this will vary a bit with the location of the agent, and they'll all give you other missions types but that distribution / preference is just a reflection of how some of the game's backgrounf story has been implemented.

if you're likely to want to be able to mission everywhere, or even to travel safely (safe from navy / police NPCs anyways) anywhere in hisec, then you will need to keep an eye on your cross-faction standings. If you were to run heaps of Minmatar missions without knowing about this, you will pretty soon find yourself unable to travel into amarr space with being shot, and unable to access any other than the most basic amarr mission agents.

this gets even more complicated if you also wish to run missions with the pirate corps / factions.

I guess I am almost a 'vet' by now. Hopefully not too bitter and managing to help more than I hinder. I build and sell many things, including large collections of bookmarks.

Regional location matters a lot, my Amarr agent never gives me missions versus Guristas, it's all Angel/Blood/Sansha with a little bit of gallente and no minmatar.

Like the post above, I have been found that location can play into what mission you shall get. I run missions for Freedom Extension (it is a Minmatar corporation) and I have went to agents at two systems

One is Eddar, a place at Heimatar that is not very close to the Amarr empire or Caldari state. This agent he mostly will be giving me missions to the Angel Cartel rather than an empire faction. I have also run missions for an agent for the same corporation at Brybier, which is a Gallente system at a Sinq Laison region. This agent has been is prone to giving me many more Amarr missions to where I have to kill Amarr ships.

Because you have been receiving missions of the Gallente Federation to kill and also Minmatar Republic you may want to try an agent far north than where you are, perhaps in the Lonetrek region.

gal/min navies are pretty much equally hated between the amarr/caldari so shouldn't be too surprising to see them, as for the guristas there are a few missions vs them (assault and some crappy one from what I remember) but pretty much most missions are vs blood/sansha/mercs/drones.

so with another evenings missioning under my belt in a different region all together, i have come to the conclusion that Amarr agents are messed up in the head.

They send me to more guristas, gallente and minmatar missions than anything.

Sanshas and Blood Raiders are supposed to be their natural enemy right?

I got ONE sansha mission all evening.

Not cool Amarr, not cool
