This guide seems a bit outdated
I believe the following have changed since this was written:
I don't think -5 standing will make the navy ships attack you. That's stated twice in this article and again on the page about standings, but I don't think that's true. I've had -5 standing with the Gallente faction and I didn't have any trouble traveling around in their space. (unless you join factional warfare)
Also, I'm sure that one of the patches last year changed security status so that you can't go below -5 security any more. Only people who had lower than -5 before the change took effect can have lower than -5 security now.
There is also no mention of factional warfare missions or Marauder class ships, again leading me to believe this is an old guide. Swift Voyager 19:54, 10 December 2008 (UTC)
- I just tested this and they definitely attack you when you have below -5 standing towards the faction and the only cap, that I'm aware of, in standings is that you can't get above +5 standing from Concord anymore. ISD BH Inganam 20:40, 10 December 2008 (UTC)
Swift. Your diplomacy skill makes your -5 standing less than. Thusly they don't attack you.
Sec Status isn't capped at 5.0, Search Jason Edwards ingame on TQ.
- There still exist 2 Cosmos-like (1-run only) agents for Concord that will indeed get you over 5.0. Have also heard that commander or officer spawns in 0.0 will also get you a tiny increase above 5.0. Isorath 23:31, 10 December 2008 (UTC)
Agent Mission %
Some of these seem a bit off to what they actually are in game.
I added a note to the mining agent % as those seem way off to what I've seen in game, the % I posted was by going through standing of the last 95 missions (counted 2 part missions as 1 single mission) 65 of these where mining 30 where hauling. Unfortunately I refuse combat missions so my standing history doesn't show when/how many I got offered so I had to take a rough guess as to how many there where. Been doing mining missions for about a year and these % are about what I've seen in my experience I just don't have much hard data on this and even then chance can mess with it a fair bit. Maybe get some help from ccp on this =s
I have had a kill mission with a mnufacturing agent. --Jan86 06:00, 15 January 2009 (UTC)

-Know your enemy-
Is missing Concord -Ship Setups- Amarr does have ammo. The crystals are ammo. Abaddon is a beam ship Apoc is the pulse ship- has optimal bonus.
Final addition: Many missions have lag clouds and zooming out helps.--Jason Edwards 04:50, 11 December 2008 (UTC)
- It is possible to go to -10.0 still. Also when you write a comment please sign (~~~~) your comment so we know who's comment is who's. ISD Erilus Nex 23:14, 10 December 2008 (UTC)
Recovering Bad Standings
Due to interbus not offering storylines.
You could note that Mordu's Legion Command is ideal for recovering Caldari-Amarr standings.
While Servant Sisters of eve can recover Gallente; then Gallente can recover Minmatar. --Jason Edwards 05:04, 11 December 2008 (UTC)
Know your enemy
Since my page of Mission Specific Hardeners was removed. Can this area at least be made more clear and with better information? Guristas do Kinetic and thermal damage but how do you tank it? Well 85% of the dps is kinetic.--Jason Edwards 01:33, 12 December 2008 (UTC)
- Hi Jason, the guide isn't locked and anyone is free to edit it at any time ISD Erilus Nex 14:08, 12 December 2008 (UTC)
Mining missions
IIRC you HAVE to mine it because ore are of special type that cannot by traded on market. Correct me if I'm wrong. -- Lumy 23:30, 19 December 2008 (UTC)
you can trade it through the contract system, however one of the mission objectives is to mine out the asteroid so you still need to do that part of the mission. The asteroids will respawn on downtime if you have not completely mined out all the asteroids so if you only half mine out an asteroid just before downtime then completely mine it out after downtime you can farm spare mission ores that way. -- Typhado3 23:54, 19 December 2008 (UTC)
Low Security Missions
Why does leaving a jetcan at mission entrance gate help prevent you from being bothered by player pirates? -- Soehiedai 17:49, 11 February 2009 (UTC)
Formula: Standing increase
Standing increase: 10-(10-[Current_Standings])x(1-([%modification]/100)
Lets say my current faction standing is 3.0 and i have made a mission with 3.0%:
10-(10-3.0) x (1 - 3.0/100)
10- 7.0 x (1 - 0.03)
3 x 0.97
= 2.91 points faction gain..
where is my fault?
