- extracting agent part from missions and overhaul
Agents are NPCs that offer missions to players and in some cases can help to locate another player.
Level
All agents have a level, ranging form 1 till 5. The level determines if the agent will interact with you, and the level -with the exception of the storyline agents- of the missions offered to you.
Standings required
An agent will offer you missions only when your standings reach a certain amount, depending on the agent's level:
Level | General | COSMOS |
---|---|---|
1 | Any standing | |
2 | 1.00 or higher | 2.00 or higher |
3 | 3.00 or higher | 4.00 or higher |
4 | 5.00 or higher | 6.00 or higher |
5 | 7.00 or higher |
You must meet this requirement for either the agent's personal standing -not for COSMOS agents- towards you, their corporation's standing towards you, or their faction's standing towards you; any one of the three will suffice. All three standings need to also be above -2.00 to receive missions higher than level 1.
For example, Eveynel Daerne is a level 3 agent in Orduin IX - Moon 4 - Transstellar Shipping Storage. This agent is part of the Transstellar Shipping corporation, which is part of the Gallente Federation faction. Therefore, the standings requirement is 3.0, meaning the agent, corporation and faction standings need to be above -2.00. In addition, at least one of the following 3 conditions must be true to get missions from Eveynel Daerne:
- Eveynel Daerne's personal standing towards you is 3.0 or higher.
- Transstellar Shipping's standing towards you is 3.0 or higher.
- The Gallente Federation's standing towards you is 3.0 or higher.
The fact that Eveynel Daerne is located in the Orduin solar system, which is the sovereign territory of the Minmatar Republic, is completely irrelevant. High Minmatar Republic standings will not give you access to missions from Eveynel Daerne. This concept applies as a rule to all agents of a faction who are located in a different faction's sovereign space.
Division
All agents belong to one of three divisions (Distribution, Mining and Security). The division controls the primary mission type offered and which of the "Division" Connection skills is applicable.
The primary mission types offered are:
- Distribution division > courier missions
- Mining division > mining missions
- Security division > encounter missions
The "Division" Connections skills are:
- Distribution Connections - Improves loyalty point gain by 10% per level when working for agents in the Distribution corporation division.
- Mining Connections - Improves loyalty point gain by 10% per level when working for agents in the Mining corporation division.
- Security Connections - Improves loyalty point gain by 10% per level when working for agents in the Security corporation division.
Standings
- Main article: NPC standings
Standings are a measure of how much one entity in EVE likes or dislikes another. These feelings are measured on a scale from -10 to +10 where negative is hatred and positive is love. Completing missions changes your standing with the agent, the agent's corporation, in some cases the agent's faction and, in security missions, the faction of the entities that you kill.
Agents' standings are determined in part by your standing with their parent corporations. Because of this, there is an advantage to running your missions with agents from the same corporation. Each completed mission will raise your standing with that agent and the agent's corporation and move you more quickly towards the next level. In addition, because Loyalty Point stores are run by corporations, you will be able to buy more items faster if you stick with one corporation.
When you complete a regular mission for an agent, you get increased standings with the agent and the corporation, but not the faction. It is worth noting that if the mission involves destroying ships or structures of a different faction, your standings with the target faction will go down due to a "Combat - Ship Kill" malus. Those who wish to be able to fly in all of High Security space are advised to decline all anti-Empire missions (that is, anti-Amarr, anti-Ammatar, anti-Caldari, anti-Gallente, anti-Minmatar and anti-CONCORD). Some exceptions or workarounds exist; for example, a Minmatar agent might give you the mission Friendly Spies, where if you destroy the mission objective but none of the hostile ships you won't lose Gallente Federation standings. In other cases, the standing losses due to "Combat - Ship Kill" are almost insignificant, such as Amarrian Tyrants (Level 3). However, some missions will incur -2.4% standing losses for ship kills and might require one or more completed storyline missions for the opposing side to repair the standings losses.
To see a history of how your standings have changed, you can go to Neocom > Character Sheet > Interactions > Standings, scroll through the list of NPC entities and select the entity you are interested in to see how much your standings went up or down for what actions and by how much. See NPC standings for more details.
