Blitzing: Difference between revisions

Line 29:

==Standing requirements and managment==

The most efficient way of making money from missions is called blitzing. You do not full clear the mission and kill every rat; instead, you get in there, kill only the ships that you absolutely have to, and leave instantly to turn it in. If you fly this way, most of the money that comes from missions does NOT come from loot/salvage/bounties, but from the LP.

Line 39:

Because most of the money comes from the LP, you need to do some research before you start missioning for just any random corp. You need to find a corp with a high isk/LP rate, then find the agent in the lowest possible sec space (still hisec of course). This will require some research for you - finding a good isk/hr rate requires looking up various items in the reward store and comparing how much you can sell them for to their LP cost. For those of you unwilling to spend too much time, a good corp to mission for Republic Fleet, with the agent Vir Honn in Emolgranlan (0.5), and converting your LP for ammo and selling it. However there are other corps out there with much higher rewards, it's up to you to find them!

WIP: Standings -

When you decline a mission more than once every four hours, three things happen:

a) your faction standings take an almost insignificant hit,

b) your corporation standings take a sizable hit

c) your agent standings take a sizable hit

Your level 4 agent will talk to you if your agent, corporation, or faction standings are above 5.0 *and* if your corporation standings don't drop to -2.0 or less.

With high faction standings and because of the minimal faction hit for declining a mission, this means it is possible to cherry pick just the quick blitzable missions as long as your corporation standings don't drop below -2.0.

For example, declining Smash the Supplier cost me:

* -0.0112% faction hit

* -3.06% corporation hit

* -6.12% agent hit

Completing the Patient Zero storyline mission netted me:

* 9.0% faction increase

In overly simplistic terms, 9.0% / .0112% = ~800 declined missions. That means I could decline hundreds of missions and make up for the faction standings hit with a single storyline mission.

Thus it is pretty easy to decline a lot of missions in order to only blitz missions that can be quickly completed.
