First off, it's not the same. There is basically no time spent turning in tags at Data Centers.


There is no time doing *anything* for buying FW mission turnin, similarly. You are buying tags, we're saying to buy sharing turnins. All you do is ask in chat and they fleet you up. You never even undock, and there are nearly always mission runners completing missions.

Obviously you didn't do the Data Centers correctly if you 'Hit a bump' and had to do something else to continue turning in tags.


Have they changed it so you can do data center agents more than once each? Because that's a hell of a speedbump.

You are really incredibly and humorously defensive about this. No one implied anything of the sort. I for one even said it surprised me you are wrong on this because you are usually right, up above.

No one ever did.

It seems you have a very difficult time being incorrect about something, even minor. If you feel the need to report me saying that, please go ahead.

Can someone clue me in about where to go or who to talk to about sharing the FW mission turn-ins for rank/faction standing and is ~50million isk enough to make it happen? I've been trading a few weeks and just discovered this tax deduction stuff. I already have social, accounting, and broker relationship trained up. I was going to start buying dog tags for cosmos datacenters, but I priced them out today and they're kind of expensive. I totaled up the cost from sell orders in jita and it was something like 1.4 billion for all the required amarr and caldari tags.

Just wondering where I can begin or if I should just save up more isk first. I started doing some distribution missions, but it's real slow and tedious. :(

You can probably find someone just asking in militia chat once you've joined the appropriate faction, however you're going to need more money than that. Pricing will vary but you're essentially paying for the loyalty points that get split, so you need to pay a competitive rate for the LP. The amount of LP per mission and the isk/lp is going to vary by faction.

On the plus side, though, you will be able to recoup much/most of the expense after the fact by cashing out the LP you've accrued for yourself, so while you will need a lot more than 50 million up front, your total expense will ultimately be far less than that.

Can you give a ballpark figure of how much I should be saving for it?

I posted some actual numbers up in:

https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=4658144#post4658144

Tl;dr, my alt spent 725M to go from 0-3.5 empire (5.3 corp), got about 650M worth of LP to sell, so total cost maybe 75M. Took less than an hour, never undocked, and this was not at a peak time.

Using this method it should be easy to go to about 7.0 empire; then you probably could do the same in the allied militia and take them both to 10 via related faction gains.

After that, the opposing factions will be trashed; you can fix them via tags. DMC wrote the definitive guide to fixing faction. Contrary to his above posts, no one is trying to play down the effectiveness of the techniques in his article - they work great.
