So if I take missions from NPC pirates (In NPC nullsec), what enemies am I likely to face? I know that its possible to have DED (Concorde?) come up as an enemy type, but would every mission be like this or would I also fight other pirate factions and mercenaries? Also, if taking DED missions causes my standings with Concorde to go below 5, I'll be auto-concorded in highsec, yes?

Also, what standings will I need to be able to accept level 1 pirate missions in the first place? I may have shot at them a few times...

Never done Pirate missions so can't help you with how they work (maybe EVE-survival.org can help you).

What standing do you need for level 1 missions. You need:

* NPC corp above -2.00
* NPC faction above -2.00

I run gurista missions on an alt from time to time. The usual enemies are serpentis, angels, mercs and occasionally cal navy. Shooting the cal navy i usually try to avoid on that character since he travels to high sec for me on occasion. As for logging the missions i believe they changed it a while back so that anyone could find at least one level one agent who would give you missions but your standings with that npc corp would still affect how long it takes you to earn standings with your level two agent. And if you have horrible standings already with that npc corp then you might find it takes forever to grind out standings to use the next level agent. A lot of folks use a clean alt with no standings at all to pull missions with rather than going in with a toon that has already ruined standings with that pirate corp.
