This is the tedious step. Right now storyline missions give very small net standings gains, they only shift them around. What you need to achieve are (minimum) the following standings:<br><br>

Gallente - 3.81<br>
+
To achieve the required Faction Standings you need to:
Minmatar - 3.81<br>
+
* complete seven Caldari Storyline Missions with +1% Faction Standing reward
Caldari - 3.00<br>
+
* complete seven Amarr Storyline Missions with +1% Faction Standing reward
Amarr - 2.30<br>
 
<br>
 
To get to that point, you need to run 7 Storyline missions with 1% reward - faster storylines to farm come from L2 Distro missions. Simply run L2 distro missions for Major and Minor enemy factions, either swapping them every couple of missions, or start with Major enemy and run it until Chosen faction drops to 3.96. If you choose corps required for Step 6 - it will shorten whole process<br>
 
Another option are L3 Security missions - there is one missions chain ([New Frontiers]) and one Storyline mission chain ([Kidnappers Strike]) with very good standings rewards.<br><br>
 
With this step Gallente and Minmatar are complete - you should have effective standings for both above 5.0.
 
  
* Step 3: Re-balance Standings -  You can replace Storyline missions with Career agents, COSMOS or Datacenters - important thing is to achieve desired standings at the end of this step.
+
To generate the Storyline Missions, run Level 2 Distribution Missions for Caldari's Expert Distribution and Amarr's Ministry of Internal Order Corporations. This will simultaneously increase your Corporation Standing with them allowing you to start their Epic Arcs.

You can substitude completing Storyline Missions with:

* [[Career Agent]] Missions
 +
* [[COSMOS]] Missions
 +
* [[Datacenter]] Missions

The Ploy: Gallente Path is a guide to completing The Ploy for those who have high Gallente Faction Standing.

You can follow the Gallente Path only if you have enough Unmodified Standing:

Required
Standing
Icon skillbook2.png Connections IV Icon skillbook2.png Connections V
Gallente 3.74 3.17
Caldari 1.55 0.93
Minmatar 3.60 3.03
Amarr 1.09 0.46

EVE Online displays only Effective Faction Standings. To help you calculate the Unmodified Faction Standings use Chris Halsky's Sheet to calculate the required Standings from Effective Faction Standings.

You can skip Step 1: Career Agents and proceed to Step 2: First and second Epic Arc if you have the required Unmodified Standings:

Standing
Icon skillbook2.png Connections IV

Gallente 4.33
