Hello all,

my standings to the empire are as follows:

gallente: 6.39
minmatar: 5.76
Amarr: -4.12
Caldari: -3.94

I have read this thread:

http://www.eveonline.com/ingameboard.asp?a=topic&threadID=1263174

that helps with faction repair, I have done some data centres to get Amarr and Caldari so I could actually enter their highsec parts so I wouldn't get shot my their navy.

The problem I am having is I am relieing atm to my Gallente faction & Minmatar faction standing to acess lvl 4's which soon I'll be able to cover with the corporation standings.
My question is how on earth can I get the possibility of getting Amarr/Caldari to greater then -2.00 so I could run missions for them aswell without having to relie on the faction standing to do missions.

From that topic i can gather that you can get to be able to run all factions navy lvl4s by relieing on the corp standing and never have high faction standing with any of them.

Apart spending millions upon millions on tags for data centres is there another way except the lvl 1 storyline, which will be a tedious job I believe!

What I am aiming for is to be able to run all the epic arcs for the 4 factions, as from what I understand the faction increase from those have no ill effects on the opposite faction!

I have
Diplomacy 4
Connection 4
Social 4

trained up!

any help would be apreciated :)

Don't accept missions that put you against Empire factions and thus require you to destroy faction ships.

you can try this also. It's a pretty lengthy guide on repairing and maintaining good standing with all the factions.

Just to be clear, that's the same guide the OP linked, though I suppose its possible that it may be an updated version.

I was in a very similar situation to the OP, not so very long ago. I'd started to repair, Amarr first, by running lvl1 missions ... all I could access given my awful Amarr faction standings. Then, a (very boring) week or so later, I found DeMichael Crimson's faction rehabilitation plan (links below) and adopted that approach. In one session I had repaired my Amarr standings more than I'd managed in a week or lvl1 grinding. After getting my Amarr above zero I turned to caldari and did much the same.

To be able to access lvl 2 / 3 / 4 / 5 agents with a particular corp you also need to have standings better than -2 with that corp's faction. So even if you have +8.0 with Republic Fleet (corporation) you will only be able to access lvl1 missions if your Minmatar Republic (faction) standings are -2.1.

So, to be able to access those other navies you need to repair your faction standings ... and DMC's repair plan is the best way to do that.

What you do next is up to you. My approach has been to try keep all faction standings above zero (working on some of the pirates right now), and to try keep them fairly balanced, and rely on corporation standings to access agents. It is possible to keep your faction standings, with all the major factions, fairly balanced ... it just takes a bit of care and heaps more missions if you want them to move on up together.

DeMichael Crimson's faction standings rehabilitation plan can be accessed via:

- The eve-wiki at http://wiki.eveonline.com/en/wiki/Faction_Standing_Repair_Plan.

Goodluck.

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.

s1n1ster m1n1ster,

There's more to the 'Faction Standing Repair Plan' than just buying tags to complete the Data Center missions. Right from the start, training Diplomacy level 5 will help a lot.

Since you can enter Amarr space, you have a couple of options available.

Complete the Level 1 SoE Epic Arc for Amarr.
Complete the Amarr Career and Circle Agent missions.
Complete the Caldari Career and Circle Agent missions.
Complete the Cosmos Agents if needed.

It shouldn't take very long to raise Amarr and Caldari Faction standing up above -2.00 to access their high level agents. After that just complete missions for the Corporations of the Level 4 Epic Arc starting agents. Only need Corporation standing above +5.00 and Faction standing above -2.00 for access to the Level 4 Epic Arcs.

I would lika an advice, ATM I have my factions standing below -3.00 for the 4 factions, I did some mistakes and I want to repair them getting them at least at 0.00. If I run the Carrier missions for the 4 empires should I get a good boost with them or this could mess even more my standing? In this situation what should I do?

PS: I don't want to run the Cosmos missions because I'm low on ISK so I can't buy the tags needed.

Thanks.
