|Question= I have negative standing with the Amarr / Caldari / Gallente / Minmatar faction, is that going to be a problem?
|Question= I have negative standing with the Amarr / Caldari / Gallente / Minmatar faction, is that going to be a problem?
|Answer= If your standings with an empire faction go below -5, you will not be able to enter their space without being shot. We usually recommend declining empire faction kill missions to avoid being in this situation. Having -5 or below standings with an empire faction can cause problems during war fleets, lowsec patrols, wormhole ops, and many other circumstances.
