Hey guys,

after the changes made to agent quality level i thought it'd be cool to start a poll, to see which have became the next big mission hub, (if any)

Just type the system where you run most of your missions

Pay the protection fee before heading there though.

This is a good thread, where does the popular low sec missioning take place? I'm looking for some good missions to run in low sec.

Your question - Where Do You Mission?

My answer - Wherever the agent sends me.

This guy's actually a trader with no combat skills, looking to buy loot. He hired me to grind standings a while back.

Anyway, use dotlan. If there's a cluster of systems with large number of rat kills, there's a popular agent in the center of it.

Hmmm...


Brevity: +1
Cheeky obvious-alt character and corp-name: +1
Obvious troll OP is obvious: -1
Complete lack of subtlety: -1

Assessment: Keep practising.

On the off-chance of seriousness: How to find missioner-heavy systems to ninja-salvage/loot in.

I think players have spread out more after the changes. A system with good agents might now only have a dozen people in it.

Am I right in thinking that the best high sec agents now will be lvl 4s in 0.5 space and no surrounding low sec systems?

It takes a whole 30 minutes to figure this out in dotlan ... and it sure beats relying on players who may or may not be truthful.


I can truthfully say that the last mission I ran was in Stoure though - mind you I was the only one there. I like quiet.

Hophib, but don't trust me or a search agent. You should head there to confirm.

No.


Care to elaborate?

I don't run that many missions to be fair, but was under the impression that since agent quality had been removed, the lower security you go to the better the mission rewards and loyalty points?

You have also to take into account:

- Agent empire. In case you loot / salvage the missions (you probably should, if you are not expert at blitzing and have good SP for gank boats), you want to do the best time : reward. Also, LP faction items vary in value and may effectively impact on the revenue.

- Agent missions basket. Some agents, at same sec, will give you a lot of faction missions (killing your standings vs the opposing empire) and / or drone missions and / or just worse missions (i.e. "Duo of death spam").

- Being close to low sec may or may not be relevant. There are agents sitting 1 jump off low sec yet that low sec is in another constellation and you won't be sent there. Other times there are agents who have low sec nearby yet they don't send you there but once every 20 missions and their payout could be extremely nice.

I hear Amamake has some really good agents.

When your gut instincts tell you something is wrong, trust them. When your heart tells you something is right, ignore it, check with your brain first. Accept nothing, challenge everything.

When running missions I am usually in curse or venal regions.

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.

Torrinos in Lonetrek.

3 x lvl 4 agents in that system.

It's a Nullsec entry system though, but security missions rarely if ever send you to a different region, even if it is only 1 jump away.
