==Standing requirements and managment==

~~Not all~~ missions ~~can be blitzed. When I missioning~~, ~~I continuously reject missions that are unblitzable~~, ~~waiting for~~ missions ~~such as the Minmatar~~ version of ~~Worlds Collide, Blockade, Recon, Pirate Invasion that can be completed quickly within minutes~~ for ~~a high LP reward~~. ~~I am~~ able to reject multiple missions in a row ~~because of Faction~~ standings. You get a lot of ~~Faction~~ standings by completing storyline missions, and ~~this falls down extremely~~ slowly when rejecting missions. As long as you keep your Faction standings above 5.0 (rather easy to do) and your ~~individual agent~~ standings above -2.0 (don't reject ~~a gazillion~~ in a row), your agent will keep talking to you and you can keep ~~rejecting~~, only waiting for ~~fast~~ blitzable missions.

As indicated above, picking only blitzable missions requires you to decline offers for, well, non-blitzable missions :)

TL;DR version: You want a faction standing of at least 5.0 with the faction you're running missions for.

One is able to reject multiple missions in a row if you have good faction standings. You can get a lot of faction standings by completing storyline missions, and faction standing drops rather slowly when rejecting missions. As long as you keep your Faction standings above 5.0 (rather easy to do) and your corp standings above -2.0 (don't reject too many missions in a row), your agent will keep talking to you and you can keep declining, only waiting for blitzable missions.

Before you have faction standings, you will not be able to reject as many missions continuously. To build it up, keep doing all your missions normally and do the storyline missions that you get every now and then.

~~Because most of~~ the ~~money comes from~~ the LP, you need to do some research before you start missioning for just any random corp. You need to find a corp with a high isk/LP rate, then find the agent in the lowest possible sec space (still hisec of course). This will require some research for you - finding a good isk/hr rate requires looking up various items in the reward store and ~~comparing~~ how ~~much you~~ can sell them for to their LP cost. For those of you unwilling to spend too much time, a good corp to mission for Republic Fleet, with the agent Vir Honn in Emolgranlan (0.5), and converting your LP for ammo and selling it. However there are other corps out there with much higher rewards, it's up to you to find them!

To elaborate the math behind the standings losses and how one can keep declining missions:

~~WIP: Standings -~~

Declining a mission more than once every four hours, three things happen:

~~When you decline~~ a mission more than once every four hours, three things happen:

a) your faction standings take an almost insignificant hit,

* 9.0% faction increase

In overly simplistic terms, 9.0% / .0112% = ~800 declined missions. That means I could decline hundreds of missions and make up for the faction standings hit with a single storyline mission.

In overly simplistic terms, 9.0% / .0112% = ~800 declined missions. That means I could decline hundreds of missions and make up for the faction standings hit with a single storyline mission. Even the "worse" storylines would easily compensate for quite a few declined mission offers.

~~Thus it is pretty easy~~ to ~~decline~~ a ~~lot~~ of ~~missions~~ in ~~order~~ to ~~only blitz missions that can be quickly completed~~.
