For or Against Amarr?

So I'm nice with Minmatar, Gallante, and Caldari. The only Amarr I'm good with is Ministry of war. I turned in some tags for them and cant do it again. I never use them though because they dont have many vs BR and Sansha missions. So its like I'm wasting my Paladin's power by fighting for a Gallante agent. Yeah she melts Serpentis pretty quickly but so does every ship in the game. It sucks against Angels for sure, I don't even bother accepting those.

Should I grind out the standing for one of the Amarr Corporations that has the LP swag I sell and is in Amarr space, or should I just start doing the anti Amarr faction missions for my Gallante agent?

Do the NPC's actually shoot at you once you reach -5 with an empire or what?

Yes, you enter their space with -5 standing, and they will try to blow you up.

Whether it's worth it is up to you. Personally I don't like to be locked out of any area, particularly Amarr trade hub.

If you can fly a paladin, it won't take long to get different corp standings up, and faction standing will follow.

Move to another region within Amarr space - the rats you face in the missions broadly follow those found in the region that the agent is located. Kador, for instance, has Blood Raiders as the resident evil, whereas Domain, for instance, might be chock-a-block with Sansha...you'd see this manifested in the variation of certain missions, like Blockade and maybe Pirate Invasion.

Perfection is a dish best served like wasabi .

I did find a decent corp that sells the implants I like operating in Domain, I will probably give that a shot then. It only took one mission to go from L1 to L2, but 2 to4 is going to suck. I'm using a Drake for that because that's what I have ready. You can't always fly a BS in those missions.

In regards to standing, I've heard many times that the most efficient is to grind Level 3 distribution missions.

I have -7 and -8 standing with the Minmatar and Gallente, respectively. They don't like me much at all...

And you know what? I'm ok with that!

I run missions for the Amarr Navy and get Blood Raider and Sansha missions frequently...I also get Angels on occasion and some Gallente and Minmatar.

I never get Guristas or Serpentis.

It sounds plausible enough tonight, but wait until tomorrow. Wait for the common sense of the morning.

Remember to run the SoE Epic Arc every 3 months, and choose the faction you'd like a standings boost with near the end.

You gotta be careful with SoE. They don't get along with Amarr.

Just don't run your Whiptail through any high-security space with a -5 security standing...

I am currently away, traveling through time and will be returning last week.

There are Amarr agents outside Amarr regions:

Use the agent finder to check for Amarr agents elsewhere
