== Recovering low faction standings ==

*Quite simply, if you are below -2, you have limited options.  First, train Diplomacy skill to as high as you can.  This will modify your negative standings upward by a certain percent.  You should do all the tutorials, datacenters, and COSMOS missions you can, for both that faction and ones that are friendly with it for the derived standings.  Remember even if Caldari State is -3, if Amarr Empire is -1 you will still have access to all the Amarr agents and can even run L4 missions for them which will eventually get you derived storyline standing.  If you have no more tutorials, COSMOS, or datacenter missions available, your only recourse are L1 ~~low quality~~ agents (very small faction standing increases with storylines), playing the derived standings game, doing the epic arc, or joining Faction Warfare as detailed below.  It's a long road to travel.

*Once you get to -2, you can again access agents with whom you have a high corp standing.  Both corp and agent personal standing can be shared in missioning fleets, so this can be the fastest way to start doing high level missions for that faction.  You will never gain or lose faction standing from other people's storyline missions when in fleets.

*If you are in a corp, the corp's relationship to each faction is determined by simply averaging all the member's standings together (ignoring members who do not have standing to that faction).  This means that even with low faction standing, you may be able to join a corp that qualifies for Factional Warfare, and work your way up through the ranks to recover your faction standing.
