| − | ==Background On Loyalty Points==
| |
| − | | |
| − | When running missions from an NPC corporation, the rewards typically consist of ISK and Loyalty Points. Loyalty Points are a specialized non-transferable currency that can only be spent at the Loyalty Point stores of the same NPC corporation that gave you Loyalty Points. Loyalty Point stores can sell items that are not otherwise first-hand obtainable by any other means, though some mission runners turn a profit by buying items from Loyalty Point stores and then reselling the same items on the open Market for a large quantity of ISK (thus effectively converting Loyalty Points into ISK).
| |
| − | | |
| − | To view what NPC corporations you have Loyalty Points with in-game, go to your NeoCom, click "Journal", click the "AGENTS" tab, and click the "LOYALTY POINTS" subtab. The list shown can be sorted alphabetically by corporation, or numerically by quantity of Loyalty Points.
| |
| − | | |
| − | To view what the Loyalty Point store of an NPC corporation has for sale, you must have at least one Loyalty Point with that corporation (meaning that you must have run a mission for them at some point in the past, else you will not be allowed to view what the Loyalty Point store has for sale). If this is true, then travel to a station owned by that NPC corporation, dock up, and click the Loyalty Point Store button in the Station Services window. The list of items you can see can be filtered, and by default only items that you can purchase right now are shown. However, you can change the view filter to show you everything available, regardless of whether or not you can afford it right now. All items require both ISK and Loyalty Points to purchase directly from the Loyalty Point store, and some items require additional items as part of the purchase. All items are required for the purchase, and lacking the necessary Loyalty Points, ISK, or items will prevent you from making the desired purchase. The selection of wares from all Loyalty Point stores of the same NPC corporation are uniform and constant; the selection only varies with the NPC corporation that owns that station, it does not vary with time or from station-to-station of the same corporation.

| − | ==Loyalty-Point-Increasing Skills==
| |
| − | | |
| − | In the Social category of skills are a set of skills that can increase the amount of Loyalty Points you gain when doing missions. For example, the in-game description of "Trade Connections" read "Understanding of the way trade is conducted at the corporate level. Improves loyalty point gain by 5% per level when working for agents in the following corporation divisions: Distribution, Storage, Production, Accounting, Mining, Marketing".
| |
| − | | |
| − | These skills only affect agents of certain divisions, and (with the exception of Research and Development agents, who are related to Tech 2 production) each division of agent benefits from two partially overlapping. A chart of which divisions are affected by which skills may be viewed here: http://www.evegeek.com/mission.php
| |
| − | | |
| − | The full list of such skills is: Bureaucratic Connections, Financial Connections, High Tech Connections, Labor Connections, Military Connections, Political Connections, and Trade Connections. While most skillbooks are seeded by CCP on the open Market (meaning that they are sold by NPCs), the Loyalty-Point-increasing skillbooks are not seeded on the open Market and are instead seeded only in Loyalty Point stores. This situation is further complicated by the fact that not all Loyalty Point skillbooks are available from the store of any given corporation.
| |
| − | | |
| − | The corporations that offer each of the LP-increasing skillbooks in their Loyalty Point stores are far too numerous to list here, and the reader is instead referred to [http://www.ellatha.com/eve/LP-Stores here] for details. However, it is worth making the general note that only one of the following three statements (at most) will be true:
| |
| − | | |
| − | *The NPC corporation has only the Bureaucratic Connections, High Tech Connections, and Labor Connections skillbooks for sale.
| |
| − | *The NPC corporation has only the Financial Connections and Trade Connections skillbooks for sale.
| |
| − | *The NPC corporation has only the Military Connections and Political Connections skillbooks for sale.
| |
| − | | |
| − | ==Weapon Specialization Skills==
| |
| − | | |
| − | In the Gunnery and Missile Operation categories are a set of skills with the word "Specialization" in them. These skills are prerequisites to mount Tech 2 modules of the type of weapon that they cover, and the skills increase the damage done by those modules. In the Drones category are also a set of skills with the word "Specialization" in them; these skills are needed to use Tech 2 drones of the given race. These skillbooks are first-hand obtainable from two general sources: NPCs on the open Market (for an ISK cost) and the Loyalty Point stores of particular corporations (for a Loyalty Point cost, but not ISK). Which corporations have which skillbooks on sale are listed below. It is worth noting that all of the corporations listed below also have the Military Connections and Political Connections skillbooks for sale (and therefore none of them have any of the other LP-increasing skillbooks for sale).
