Overview
The agent finder is a useful in-game tool that allows you to locate agents of interest to you. It is a simple and effective method of choosing which agent to pursue next and allows you to easily plan ahead for future mission running.
How to Access It
The agent finder can be accessed via The Agency, a neocom app that provides access to PVE (player versus environment) activities.
How to Use it
The top level has a button for each of the five types of mission agents.
Selecting a type of agent will take you to the agents for that kind of mission. You can choose from all available agents, or set options to select a particular set of agents.
The options are:
- Agent Level - This determines the level of missions offered by the agent. An agent's mission level appears as a number to the top right of the agent. (Note that missions get more difficult as the level increases. You can check if your standings are high enough before selecting agents above Level 1.)
- Agent Location - This will show all agents within a certain number of jumps: current, 2, 5, 10, unlimited and "specific region".
- Region - this appears if you select "specific region"; it let's you choose from all of EVE's regions.
- Security Status - This restricts the security rating of the agents' systems allowing you to, for example, exclude agents that are located in lowsec. (It is up to you to check the safety of the jump path to an agent located two or more jumps from where you are.)
- Faction - This selection allows you to narrow the available agents to those which belong to the chosen faction.
- Corporation - This appears if you choose a specific faction, and it allows you to show agents of one particular corporation.
- Ignore Standings Requirement - When this is unchecked the Agent Finder hides all agents that you cannot select because your standings with them are too low. To see all possible agents, check this box.
The final output will show all applicable agents: highest level first, and then in order of distance. You will see their names, corporations, levels, mission type, system (along with its security rating) and distance.
Once you choose an agent, the blue button at the bottom left titled "Set Destination" will do exactly that for the agent currently selected.
