Epic Mission Arcs

Epic mission arcs are composed of a series of branching missions. Unlike a standard mission series, epic mission arcs present the player with one or more choices along the way. The player has to choose one of two or more missions at certain points within the mission line. There are several paths through each mission arc, with each branch presenting the player with different missions and rewards.

Pilot notations

Make any notations you want to pass along to future pilots of this line

In completing this mission, I followed the high sec line, and returned the pilot safely. I received approximately 134 mil isk, 22k m^3 in parts, reduced to 94 mil in minerals & 1525 salvage, and a 20-50 mil item. Estimated value 260mil for 19 missions. Main flew in Golem, Secondary flew in Orca to transport stuff and dragged a Basilisk to help with unknown tanking situations.--Kismeteer 15:13, 1 September 2009 (UTC)

Redisgn a little the page, put some other choice -- Eleanor Arroway 21:06, 13 September 2009 (UTC)

Replacing my earlier interim comment, I have now completed the full low sec arc (not the middle choice of flying through lowsec).
  1) All low sec combat missions were completed solo with a PVE fit Retribution (4 medium pulse, offline salvager, afterburner, 2 heat sinks, 2 resists, 1 repper, no rigs). Opposition comprised of cruiser class Serpentis and Syndicate (Serpentis with capwar). I had to fit a cap injector specifically for one mission with heavy capwar. My recommendation to pilots is to use a normal pvp-fit AF and don't use a mission setup like I did. Despite these being missions, the heavy capwar makes them more like PVP encounters. They are not difficult. Also, I had to chase a Punisher out of my mission. If I had a PVP ship with a scram, he would have been loot.
  2) Highsec part I believe to be soloable with a faction tanked Dominix but I called in a friend for one spawn in the "Showtime" mission as I use a T2 fit. The tank would not hold vs the Pator-6 Elite Battleships in "Showtime" but they took 45 seconds to put me into structure from full armor (survived due to damage control). A rough calculation of 7800 armor in 45 seconds at approximately 80% resist (damage types uncertain) puts the damage at 900 dps above my rep rate so a faction or deadspace fit should suffice. My fit was 2 reppers, 4 resists, 1 damage control in low slots; cap recharger and omnidirectional tracking in mid slots; single gun in high slots with salvagers, tractors, and drone range links. CCC and ANP rigs. When remote repping was applied, the tank held with 3 large RR, one (1) local rep and no armor bots.
  3) Mission order (after 1st decision tree) Outside the Scope, Hidden Camera, Rendezvous, Handoff, With Authority, Places to Hide, Octomet Plantation, Carry On, Studio 1, Showtime, Where is the Line -- Natasha Seryushkin 11:30, 14 September 2009 (UTC)
