This article should be cleaned up or improved. The reason is: unspecified

In a peaceful universe, we would all be free to mission to our heart's content without any unwanted interference. But, EVE is not a peaceful universe. War seems to loom over the University almost constantly, and during such times it can be dangerous to run missions on your Uni Main as War Targets can engage you without repercussion. This guide will attempt to give instruction on a method of using a second account to complete missions relatively safely while allowing you to continue making progress on your standings with your main.

How to Run a Deadspace Mission with an Alt

  1. Have your University character form a fleet and invite the out-of-corp alt.
  2. Have the alt accept the mission.
  3. Bring the alt to the system where deadspace is involved. Dock him.
  4. Make sure that you are flying a cheap ship.
  5. If necessary, travel to the system with the mission bookmark and dock at the same station your alt is at.
  6. Check local for hostiles. Do not undock if there are hostiles in local.
  7. Undock both characters (carefully), alt first. Orbit close (less than 2000 m) to the station or insta-undock.
  8. As fleet commander, warp the fleet towards the mission bookmark. (You can do this in the same right-click-activated context menu where you select "Warp to location".)
  9. Immediately stop your University character's ship by pressing ctrl + space and dock. Do not let your ship enter warp.
  10. Perform the mission with the alt.
  11. Complete the mission with the main back at the station. (Whether you split the rewards is up to you.)

Operation: Fortress

It's worth mentioning Operation: Fortress in this context. It isn't possible for everyone to participate, nor is it mandatory, however in the Aldrat area it can be just as safe to run missions within the Operation and while on the associated Mumble channel, without requiring a second account, and every additional person participating makes it a little safer for everyone else.
