"The Brutor tribe stands in to support an historical research effort being undertaken by the Republic University, a move bolstered by the presence of a powerful and capable capsuleer - that is, you. Repeatedly denied access to an important historical artifact, the academics are pitted in a constant struggle to uncover ancient truths, and it will be your mission to help them. The histories of conquered civilizations are seldom told in full by the victors, and many organizations will do their best to keep things that way."
Requirements
To start the Minmatar Epic Arc you must have standings of 5.0 or higher with the Brutor Tribe corporation or the Minmatar Republic faction. In addition to being comfortable with level 4 missions, you should have the Hacking and Archaeology skills trained (Hacking III (minimum III required) and Archaeology I are sufficient).
Rewards
At the end of this Epic Mission Arc you will decide whether to cooperate with a Gallente historian or with the Defiants, a splinter group of the Republic Fleet. The Defiants will award you
- +5% Minmatar Republic faction standing (6.25% at Social V)
- 10 x RSS Core Scanner Probes
The Gallente historian will award you
- +10% Minmatar Republic faction standing (12.5% at Social V)
After you complete the arc, be sure to check that you have received the faction standing increase, because there have been many cases of people not receiving the increase. If your standing has not changed, file a petition. It may help to include a link to CCP Dropbear's post in the old forums.
Enemies
You will face mostly Angels with some Mercenaries, Amarr, and Ammatar.
After one completion of this arc, the following faction standing changes due to "Combat - Ship Kill" were observed:
- Amarr Empire: -0.0%, -0.06%, -0.06% (very small losses)
- Ammatar Mandate: -3.0%
- Angel Cartel: -3.0%, 10 losses of 0.025% or smaller
