hi there,

i would like to know, how it is with Caldarian Epic Arch final reward
i have completed it and got item reward as a special Laboratory, super - cool, i like it

but... honestly ? i was doing all this arch just to increase my standing with Caldari Faction
well, even few days after, standing didn't updated, and it didn't changed.. no loss no gain, nothing

i wanted to search what is going on, on some guides it says, that you should be rewarded with large faction boost, another people on forum wrote that it was removed, another one... that it was a bug from long time ago...


so.. anyone can tell me how it is now ? should i send petition to GM or rather not...?
PS: i have done this chain with my friend, and same thing happends for him, he didn't got any faction boost ... so it wasn't just me... each mission we shared and splitted reward = could that be a problem ?

Each mission completed should give Agent and Corporation standing increase to all Fleet members. Only the player who is offered the Epic Arc will get the Faction standing increase.

If you haven't received Faction standing increase, send in petition as soon as possible.

Standing changes come as a percentage of your current standing. Thus, it may not be as obvious as you think.

Go and actually check for the standings changes. I believe under Standings, right click on the corporation/faction and you should be able to view standings and how you got them.

Don't listen to DMC. No need to immediately file a petition without exhausting all possibilities. The simplest answer is user error.

Finished the Caldari epic arc last week aswell with the lab as reward.

None of my 3 chars which finished the arc on their own received the caldari faction standing.

After a petition it was amended by GM. So looks like it happens all the time with the faction standing increase ...

^^^^^^ ... just as DMC advises.

The epic arcs' final standings boosts do not always get awarded at the moment, although some do.

If you've not received the faction standings boost then petition that fact. In the last few weeks Angel Sound failed to give me the standings boost, while the Amarr and Caldari lvl4 arcs were fine. I petitioned re Angel Sound and the CCP response was very quick and effective.

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.

You must do An Honorable Betrayl. Almost Unmasked, and Slipping Away to get the Hyasyoda lab. You have to choose which path you take.

Caldari Epic Arc Flowchart
Caldari Epic Walkthrough - Hyasyoda Mobile Lab reward

Home in Peace (no lab) = 10 percent Caldari standing
Across The Line (lab) = 10 percent Caldari standing
The Price of Silence (boosters) = 10 percent Caldari standing

Check your Caldari standing (right-click) for these missions.

Oh, look there it is. There's an issue somewhere in the flow, but if you just going for the lab it should be fine. One of those things I never got back to :S

Someone has made a clone of it and fixed the error, and then put it in their own guide without giving me credit :*(
