=Positive standings with all 4 empires=

==What:==

The target of this mini-guide is to provide info how to reach 5.0 standings with all four empire factions.

==Why:==

Having 5.0 standings with empires is beneficial to pilots interested in running missions:

- Access to all Level 4 and below missions from all corporations in these empires

- Access to all 4 Epic Arcs from empires, and additionally 2 pirate Epic arcs

- No need to run Storyline missions

- Potential to re-roll missions from agents with hit to standings to get favorite mission

==How:==

===Early game strategy===

There are few recommendations to follow since start of the game - without them, the process of getting 5.0 will be much longer:

- Avoid missions against factions. This is by far the biggest threat to lowering standings with factions during mission running

- Complete Career agent missions. Each faction has 3 sets of missions - finishing them grants good standings increase to factions

- Choose faction pair that you will focus on - either Caldari-Gallente or Amarr-Minmatar. These faction pairs have biggest derived standings penalties, and working on such pair allows you to avoid big decrease [wording]

- Try to run missions for chosen factions, but limit yourself to 1-2 corporations from each faction - you will reach the point where your faction standings are still low, but you'll be able to run L3/L4 missions - to be able to do that, you need corporation standings above 3.0/5.0 respectively

===Skills needed===

Most important skill is Connections. Raised to IV improves standings by 16% - this means that in order to have effective 5.0 standing, you only need 4.1 unmodified standing for each faction, which is much more easily obtainable.

Second skill worth training is Social - it improves standings gain from each mission. Training to IV is recommended to shorten the time needed to achieve 5.0 with all empires

===Improving standings===

You can think of getting all 4 factions to 5.0 as getting total of 20.0 in faction standings gain - that's the target to achieve. How to approach it:

- Connections IV - it gives you free 3.6 in total standings gains (you need 4.1 for each faction, total of 16.4)

- Storylines are your bread and butter for faction standings gains - each L4 storyline gives about 0.2 net gain of standings

- Circle agents are not worth your time - it's not necessary to do them

===Finishing touches===

I'm not at this level yet, so I'll write as I go.
