Mission Running: Introduction: Difference between revisions

Line 195:

Members of a fleet who run missions can share some or all of the standings, LP, ISK, loot, and/or salvage offered by the missions. This is especially good for newer players, as they generally gain more standings than they share. There are two main kinds of mission fleet: Spider, where everyone runs their own missions, but shares standings etc. at the end; and Locust, where the fleet members all work on the same mission together. Read the article on [[Mission Fleets]] for more details.

~~===Farming a Mission for Loot===~~

Farming a mission means to do the same mission over a few days by NOT completing the mission. Ie.,for Vengeance, you can kill everything except one rat in the last pocket and then redo the mission after downtime (all the rats will respawn) until the mission expires. This is very good for high value missions like Angel Extravaganza (AE), Blockade, Worlds Collide, Vengeance, or Cargo Delivery.

~~Example:~~

Say I usually play every day for an hour, and it takes me an hour to do Angel Extravaganza. Angel Extravaganza gives me 40 million ISK with bounties, loot, and salvage. To maximize my revenue, if I got AE, I would kill everything except Tiogo Kargaz. That way the mission would not complete and I could then repeat this after every downtime until the mission expires. This would give me 40 million ISK × 6 days = 240 million ISK

~~Now say I decided to kill Tiogo and complete the mission. On the next 6 days, I could get average missions that give ~20mil ISK. This way I would only get 20 million ISK x 6days = 120 million ISK~~

~~</div>~~

The downside is the repetitive monotony and if you want to play some more after you semi-complete the farm-mission. This can be somewhat mitigated if you have multiple agents. I can have an agent on standby for farming Blockade and then keep doing missions with another agent.
