Leve 4 Hisec mission efficiency

Hi,

Are there any stats on the above?

I've not run missions for a year or so now and to be honest I was not that diligent in tracking performance back then.

I've tried googling for some stats but I can only seem to find 2010 or earlier threads and I am pretty sure these are all out date.

I'm about to get into either missioning again or into standing grinding for a possible datacore project.

Then again.... there are many other things, but the two above will do until I decide which way I want to go (taken me a year already and still no further ahead) Cry

Regards

I've yet to see anyone use a decent amount or quality sample size but you can expect anywhere from 10-70m/hr ship/skills/luck depending.

Excuse me, but what the f*ck are you desu?

Basically what Desu said. We have a lot more questions than answers in regards to many subjects. Also, with something as general as 'most efficient', it would be hard to form a solid answer anyway with all the different factors to consider.

I am efficient enough to make two plex plus some extra isk every month.

I think I may have phrased my question wrongly.

What I wanted to know is if there was a schedule to show which missions should be blitzed, whcih should be completed and which should be skipped(refused).

Does such a thing exist.

Thanks for the replies though......

Don't think there is such a guide. Though I'd say don't bother with drones missions unless you want the drone mins. Having no bounty in the mission is bad. Also over time, you'll get used to which ones you like/dislike. Just remember the 4 hour decline timer, it can get in the way some times.

drone missions are great
1. easily to blitz
2. lots of lp
3. Profit

At first you should search a corp with a good lp store, as soon as you find something worth of at least 2k isk/lp (where large number of people grind missions are terrible bad lp store, for example caldari navy), blitz everything.
After some time you'll also get your faction standing higher than 6.0 and now you can cherrypick, fly only the missions which you can blitz and you get easily more than 100mil per hour

If you dont know which ship you should train for, get the Machariel, it is just ridicoulus how fast you are. It is also faster than a Nightmare against Blood/Sansha.

Related this this topic, is it better to blitz through missions or clear+salvage?

I'm still at low skills and doing the L4 missions on a SNI for safety reasons (big ass tank), for caldari navy (don't know which corp is actually better really).

I'm also using an alt in a noctis (second account) to salvage the pockets after me.

This is what I am talking about....... guess who I'm with? (there's a clue in the quote).

I was thinking of trying to grind some standing for a datacore alt too. Is there a Corp that offers decent datacore opportunities as well as combat missions? (If there is but you don't want to share, then a Yes or No would be great. I understand people do not want to give up their sources).

Skip drones, no bounties.
Skip faction, no bounties (and hurt standings)
Kill everything as fast as possible, Loot with alt if you so desire. (Profit)
(As a rule I personally decline any level 4 that offers sub 2k lp, as its usually a waste of time "go out kill 2 npcs. come back")

In your case , clear + salvage is the way to go . Blitzing require a lot of skill AND a good LP Store in order to be efficient , and you got none of them . Plus , you already got an alt for salvaging , so keep going :)

Drones missions are awesome for blitzing , but keep declining them , it's good for us Big smile

I have the same question too. I'm about 10 days from a T2 salvage fitted Noctis, which I gather might also be usefull in WH (at some time in the future).

Regarding the research, dock up and look at "Agent Finder" in the Station Services window.

There you can filter by "R&D", this will show you all the R&D corps. Then you can filter by one of those R&D corps and "security" and plan out how you will go about raising the standings.

It's not big money tho. Its about 1.5 billion a year, I believe, researching with the maxxed number of agents.

Well beside getting lai dai for research, what makes a lp store much better?
Basically find a corp with somthing needed and sell implants/weapons/ships? Or its blueprints?

What about the signets?

I don't expect the secrets butbat leas a dirction can be nice P

Usually the blueprints. Generally you get more isk/Lp off of 5 run module prints than trading for the actual item. Generally. Sometimes that is a loss and some items are not worth making. Park at the LP store with a calculator...

90% of of the time my posts are about something I actually find interesting and want to learn more about. Do not be alarmed.
