=SoE Blitz=

===The Challenge===

SoE Epic Arc can be blitzed. Pretty impressive times can be reached, using Interceptors/T3Ds/other advanced ships. The Challenge which I wanted to accomplish is to speedrun SoE Epic Arc counting from Character Generation - you start up new Alpha toon, and your only objective is to finish that Epic Arc. You can set up whatever you need in advance, but all missions have to be done solo. Can you beat me?

===Stats===

1. 6h 51m

First run - completely without preparation, including some Jita shipping - 6h 51m. That includes shipping time, figuring out skills, fumbling with corp invite, all that stuff. Super un-optimized, it was just a test run to check how fast you can get enough skills to beat Dagan.

===Strats===

1. Ship choice

To run that arc fast, I need two ships. One fast ship, and one tough ship.

For fast ship, I opted for Merlin - fresh toons have gunnery skills already trained, so I can use small hybrids right away. It's fitted and rigged for warp speed, as due to low skills I cannot make it sub3s. Also Expanded Cargohold is needed, due to one mission requiring moving 150m3 of materials.

For tough ship I chose Gnosis. I do not need any skills to fly it, and craptastic RLML fit had barely enough DPS to kill Dagan. In fact I'm using 2 different fits - one for Arnon (where I need AB and better tank for Dagan) and one for 4 (!) other Gnosises, located around SoE mission areas (Harerget, Hatakani, Hek, Lisudeh) - that saves on travel time with Gnosis. Each one is parked and waiting for me while I travel in Merlin

2. Skills

TBD

===Trade===

You can't run SoE Arc on your Alpha alt to boost standings of your main, since you can't log on with 2 Alpha accounts. But you can trade with me :)

How it works:

1. You run SoE on fresh alpha (be reasonable, train it for few days), and you finish it while my toon is in fleet - that way I get standings boost. Then you can scrap that alt.

2. In return, I do the same - I finish Arc with toon chosen by you in fleet with me.

We both get standings boost on our main accounts, while using Alpha accounts to help each other. I have SoE solved - I need one evening to run it for you, so whenever you are ready to trade - DM me on Discord :)
