The Ploy: Minmatar Path

The Ploy: Minmatar Path is a guide to completing The Ploy for those who have high Minmatar Faction Standing.

You can follow the Minmatar Path only if you have the required Unmodified Standings:

Required Standing	Connections IV	Connections V
Gallente	1	2
Caldari	3	4
Minmatar	5	6
Amarr	7	8

EVE Online displays only Effective Standings. Chris Halsky's Sheet will suggest which Path you should take based on your current Standings.

Step 1: Career Agents

You need to achieve at least the following Unmodified Standings:

Required Standing	Connections IV	Connections V
Gallente	9	1
Caldari	2	3
Minmatar	4	5
Amarr	6	7

Complete any ten out of fifteen Career Agent Mission chains for each Empire in the following order:

• 5 Amarr
• 5 Caldari
• 5 Amarr
• 5 Caldari
• 5 Minmatar
• 5 Gallente
• 5 Minmatar
• 5 Gallente

Do this to keep both Amarr and Caldari Faction Standings high while also reaching 5.0 Faction Standing with both Minmatar and Gallente so you can start their Epic Arcs.

You can skip Step 1: Career Agents and proceed to Step 2: First and second Epic Arc if you have the required Unmodified Standings.

Step 2: First and second Epic Arc

Complete the Epic Arcs in the following order:

1. Wildfire
2. Syndication

Blabla note bla

Step 3: Re-balance Standings

You need to achieve at least the following Unmodified Standings:

Required Standing	Connections IV	Connections V
Gallente	8	9
Caldari	1	2
Minmatar	3	4
Amarr	5	6

In addition, you will need 5.0 Effective Standing with:

• Minmatar
• Gallente
• Amarr's Ministry of Internal Order Corporation
• Caldari's Expert Distribution Corporation

To achieve the required Standings you need to complete seven Storyline Missions:

• for Amarr Corporations for +1% Amarr Standing reward
• for Caldari Corporations for +1% Caldari Standing reward

To generate the Storyline Missions you can run missions for Amarr's Ministry of Internal Order and Caldari's Expert Distribution Corporations. This will simultaneously increase your Corporation Standings and allow you to start the Amarr and Caldari Epic Arcs.

Instead of Storyline Missions you could do:

• Career Agent Missions
• COSMOS Missions
• Data Center Missions

Step 4: Third, forth and fifth Epic Arc

Complete the Epic Arcs in the following order:

1. Right to Rule
2. Penumbra
3. The Blood-Stained Stars in which you will side with Caldari

Aha! Yea yea, blab bla
