Hi, Im currently looking at some Gallente corps, but it turns out most of them have really ******/lengthy missions like buzzkill, damsel in distress...with limited bountykill profits and even some really really bad drone missions sending you 2 jumps out into lowec...

Is Gallente really a good way to go to mission lvl4's and get some good time vs money value?

Or should I just go Caldari corps?

Damsel in distress is bling bling blitz though.

Buzzkill is one of those things that either you have a ship which can handle it well or it is a pain.

As for Gallente corps and LP payouts... it really depends on the corp and the item you are talking about. No hard and fast rules out there.

If you are being sent out 2 jumps into lowsec for combat mission don't blame Gallente - you are using the wrong hub is all. Go run missions farther away from lowsec and you won't have this issue.

I've used it. It's helpful to have Dodixie so close for market things (plus another L4 agent for when yours gets temperamental). It isn't ideal due to relatively high second status though (which drives down agent rewards).

Mission mix is pretty typical: 50ish percent Serpentis, 25ish percent Angels, 25ish other.

Sinq Laison in general is a nice place to hang around for mission runners...there's a relatively high concentration of L4 agents.

Ignebaneer (or however you spell it) is not too far from Dodixie and has two lvl4 FIO agents. Quite nice and quiet system, though it does border lowsec.

An added plus is that there is a combat lvl4 Astral mining agent a few jumps away, and has a fairly good LP store.

If I were running missions up in Gal highsec I'd go for Scheenins right now. Roden shipyards lvl 4 agent, 0.5 system, no neighbouring lowsec system. Amygnon is another interesting system with two lvl 4 agents, 0.6 sec system, no lowsec. Garoun investment bank (why they need so many combat agents is beyond me!)

Oh and those two locations are just two jumps away from each other - also convenient.


I generally view proximity to Dodixie as a liability when running missions, not an asset, but to each his own.

I second that. I'm doing L3's and some L4's right now in the Sinq region, though I am close to lolsec and have to decline missions quite often (thinking of moving a few jumps away).

Damsel can be blitzed but also done "normally" in very short time and with very nice income.

Buzzkill if done properly, can be done in one bounty "tick" and in my books it resulted to be one of the top income missions per hour.

Right now I'm missioning for Federal Administration, they have a level 2, 3, and 4 agent all in the same station (Halle VII), and another L4 agent 2 jumps out should your current agent give you a mission that's not to your liking. There's a Federal Intel Office storyline agent in the same system, and since FIO has a similar LP store like Fed Navy that's good too.

*actually I'm doing more exploration that anything now, but it's still a good corp to mission for.

No don't go to Scheenins, terrible place absolutely nothing of value her.. I mean there. Please don't waste your time.

On a serious note the Vittenyn hub and neighbouring systems when running for Fednav is a popular and profitable choice. Probably the biggest isk area I've found myself though is highsec Heimatar.

Honestly mate, try doing Angel Cartel missions. Yes it's risky, yes it's kinda one eye on the missions and a bigger eye on local, but honestly, they have great rewards. I've been doing a bunch of them and now I'm doing some SOE missions here and there just to get a break from the stress of npc null.

Theology Council would be good if the LP wasn't worth poop.

I'd probably do thukker lvl4s if I went back high sec.

I found the area around Dodixie particlarly infested with mission intruders, had more of them in a month than a whole year elsewhere. Note "mission intruders" not ninja salvagers, a Drake isn´t exactly a ninjas choice of ship, I assume.

Also, Dodixie suffers from an infestation of Nova Ardour.

Overall Gallente, Amarr and Minmatar corps are good. Caldari is by and large a no-no.

If you want help finding exact corps then you can look in my corp description. I have listed the names of several corps there that I buy LP from at 1200 isk/lp, if you're interested.
