NPC Corporations are organizations in EVE not run by players. Players can not freely join NPC corps, indeed there are only a few NPC corps a character will be able to join:

  • the NPC starter corp a new character will be in after character creation, which depends on Empire and Ancestry choice
  • the default NPC corp a character will automatically join when leaving a corp, which depends on Bloodline choice
  • one of the four Faction Warfare NPC corps that a character may join at any time

Almost all NPC corps offer missions which players may do to earn Loyalty Points and standing. With the large number of NPC corporations in the game, it is difficult to know what benefits standings with each corporation provides. Some NPC corporations are simply better than others, and blindly grinding standings will not maximize your benefit.

Epic Arcs

Main Factions

Each of the main factions has one corporation whose standings will allow you to run their faction epic arc. These are probably the best corporations to start improving standings with, since the epic arcs will help improve your entire faction standings.

Arc Faction Corporation
Right to Rule Amarr Ministry of Internal Order
Penumbra Caldari Expert Distribution
Syndication Gallente Impetus
Wildfire Minmatar Brutor Tribe

Pirate Factions

The pirate faction arcs can be done if your standing is 3.0 or higher with any of the associated factions or corporations. The important thing to note here is that access to the arc can be gained by factions and corporations unrelated to the pirate factions themselves. This means that you can access the pirate arcs even if you have extremely low standings with the pirate factions themselves.

Arc Faction Corporation
Angel Sound Amarr Amarr Imperial Navy
Smash and Grab Caldari Ytiri
Smash and Grab Gallente Federal Intelligence Office
Angel Sound Minmatar Republic Security Services
Angel Sound Angel Cartel Dominations
Smash and Grab Guristas Guristas

Trade Hubs

If you have high standings with the corporation that owns a major trade hub, you will pay lower fees in that trade hub.
