Blitzing: Difference between revisions

Line 64:

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. Even the "worse" storylines would easily compensate for quite a few declined mission offers.

==LP cashing in==

Because most of the money comes from the mission rewarded Loyalty Points (LP), you need to do some research before you start missioning for just any random corp. You need to find a corp (and an item they offer) with a high isk/LP rate, then find the agent in the lowest possible sec space (still hisec of course).<br>

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, always factoring in the other items/ISK you need to pay in order to obtain an item from the LP store.<br>

"Good" items can be pretty situational or temporary only, an average value of 1k ISK/LP will result in income similar to what you get from "regular" missioning, but will not make Blitzing a superior choice (ISK/hr wise).

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!

This video has me doing this in a Machariel, which is a rather expensive ship for many people. However, you do not NEED an expensive ship to do this. The Drake is one of the best blitzing ships out there and only costs about 50-60m fully fit before insurance. Here is an excellent drake fit:
