==Equipment Tax== | ==Equipment Tax== | ||
[[File:Reprocess.png|32px]] Equipment tax is paid when a player [[Reprocessing|reprocesses]] items in an NPC station. | |||
The level of the tax is based on the player's personal or corporation [[standings]] (whichever is the higher) with the NPC corporation that owns the station. The base tax rate, with no standings, is 5%. This can be reduced to 0% with the required standings (which are 6.67 standings). For this reason, it is normally beneficial for players to reprocess items in stations where they have good standings with the owner. | |||
There are several skills which can assist in increasing standings with NPCs: | |||
{{Skill | |||
|skill=Connections | |||
|desc=Skill at interacting with friendly NPCs. 4% Modifier to effective standing from friendly NPC Corporations and Factions per level. Not cumulative with Diplomacy or Criminal Connections. | |||
|1=Charisma | |||
|2=Intelligence | |||
|pre={{sk|Social|III}} | |||
|notes=Your effective standing is calculated using the following formula:<br> | |||
Effective Standing = Unadjusted Standing + ((Maximum Possible Standing - Unadjusted Standing) * Connections Modifier * Connections Skill Level)<br> | |||
So if your current base standing was 0.9 and you had the connections skill at level two your effective standing out be:<br> | |||
0.9 +((10-0.9)*0.04*2)=1.628<br> | |||
