Tired of tedious and time-consuming mining, relying on randomness in scanning and expeditions? You can try your hand at reliably earning ISK by completing faction missions as a Level 3 Agent! In this guide, we'll be focusing on the Security Agent option, as there are also Sales (delivery) and Resource Extraction Agents.
Level 3 Missions
Completion Cost: 60kk for a ship with equipment
Benefit: Omega Status 14-21 days.
There are 5 levels of agents, mostly for each faction. We'll be completing Level 3 because it's the highest level available on an Alpha account. On average, with advanced skills and progress, you'll be able to consistently earn approximately 100kk per day. One downside of the Misks is that some missions damage relations with other factions, and you can complete so many missions that the police in Jita or Amarr, for example, will shoot at you if your faction relations drop below -5. However, this problem can be easily solved by leveling up your faction relations skills during the alpha phase.
We'll be completing the third mission on the Gnosis, but you can choose any other cruiser of your nation. The Gnosis will be equipped as a drone carrier, capable of firing machine guns, missiles, lasers, or blasters, depending on your skills. This versatile ship provides a 25% damage bonus to all weapons, as well as a 50% bonus to drone damage and durability. It also offers numerous mid- and low-level module slots, allowing you to customize your defenses to suit your needs: shields, armor, or hull. Ship equipment using the PvE example (drones + machine guns + shields):
- Power Diagnostic System II x3
- Drone Damage Amplifier II x3
- Large Shield Extender II
- 50MN Y-T8 Compact Microwarpdrive
- Large Compact Pb-Acid Cap Battery
- Multispectrum Shield Hardener II x2
- Large Shield Booster II
- Light Missile Launcher II
- 720mm 'Scout' Artillery I x5
- Medium Ancillary Current Router I
- Medium Processor Overclocking Unit I
- Medium Core Defense Field Extender I
- Hammerhead I x7
Combat tactics with this equipment include shooting large ships at long range (+30km), clearing out small ones with drones, and actively draining shields using the accumulator, which is increased by a battery and charges faster with the Power Diagnostic System II.
Which faction should I play for?
The question is, how do you plan to withdraw "Reward Points," or LP as they're known, which, in addition to ship loot and ISK, will be awarded for completing agent missions? You can view your Reward Points for a specific faction by pressing Alt + W and clicking "Reward Points" or by going to Menu - Finance - Wallet - "Reward Points."
There are services that show the value of Reward Points for a particular faction, for example, http://lpstock.ru/corp.php?corpid=1000120 . On average, one Reward Point is worth 1,000-1,200 ISK. I recommend completing missions for the NPC corporation Sisters of EVE, as this speeds up the process of exchanging LP for ISK. ISK is usually with Sisters Core Scanner Probes, Astero blueprints, or Stratios blueprints, depending on the current market price.
CCP makes money when your ship gets blown up, or when you blow up your opponent's ship. Afterward, you'll be in the game every day to recoup your losses or pay CCP money. That's why wars, conflicts, and creepers on warpgates are necessary. You can beat the game if you don't lose your ISK.
To view your current standings with factions and corporations, click on the pilot's avatar in the upper left and select the "Interactions" tab.
Which skills should I level up?
After selecting a faction, begin completing level 1 and 2 missions until you unlock a level 3 agent. Since we're building a security service and minimizing the negative rating from completing missions, we max out the following skills:
1. Security Connections - +10% to reward points from completing missions per level.
2. Negotiation - +4% to ISK from completing missions per level.
3. Connections - +4% improvement in relations with friendly organizations per level.
4. Diplomacy - +4% to relations with enemy factions whose ships you destroy per level.
5. Developing Business Relationships (Social) - +5% to relationships with all organizations, factions, and agents.
Higher skills will increase your earnings and reduce negative standings against factions.
The third agent is already available. How do I complete it?
The main tactic, based on experience, is to complete the mission as quickly as possible, avoiding loot where there are no faction ships. With cheap loot, you can complete 3-5 missions per hour, and without it, you'll reach 10-15 missions per hour. This will allow you to quickly unlock a multi-part staged mission from the agent, which drops expensive faction tokens and modules. The loot from this mission is estimated at 10-50,000 ISK. All other missions with regular ships are of little interest and require time to collect 1,000-3,000 ISK with a tractor. You can probably salvage the remains of drone clusters—they say they offer 10-20 million in loot per salvage—but that's essentially wasting time in the alpha, which could have been used to complete even more missions.
I forgot to mention that to speed up resource gathering, you'll need a Mobile Tractor Unit, which salvages wrecks from a 120km+ radius around it. Other players can cut it down very quickly and steal your loot, so I advise you not to fly too far away from the tractor.
What should you do if a ship flashes orange and provokes a fight to kill you? It's best to do nothing and not give in to the provocation, grab your loot, the tractor, and fly away. Because as soon as you open fire on the ship, it can either kill you outright or fly away first, board a more powerful ship, and return. He won't be able to shoot you himself, because the police will show up and kill him, and that's more expensive and less profitable than if he kills you. I recommend adding such people to your personal contacts and marking them red so you can see if they're in the system.
How do I redeem reward points?
See the service. http://lpstock.ru/corp.php?corpid=1000120 than to withdraw, and according to https://evemarketer.com/ the cost of a particular product. For example, if you withdraw using caps:
Sisters Core Scanner Probe x100 (33,000,000):
- 18,000 reward points for Sisters of Eve
- 100 regular caps (450,000 ISK).
- 1,200,000 ISK x10
Costs: 13,000,000 ISK
----------------------------
Profit: 20,000,000 ISK
The same Makar considers profit from withdrawing LP through Astera, Stratius or any other faction product, the problem is that not all products sell quickly if you decide to withdraw LP with something very rare.
So, it's possible to consistently earn 100,000,000 ISK per day by completing 1-2 multi-stage quest missions (up to 50,000,000 ISK) and earning the remaining half by withdrawing reward points. This takes 5-10 hours, depending on how quickly you complete the missions. Regarding low-sec missions, if they're combat missions, it's best to decline and take another one; if they're courier missions on a shuttle, try flying.
Sometimes, you'll also get a message about a mission from an agent of special importance to you. These quests increase your faction standing just like several regular missions, are easy to complete, and sometimes offer a good reward. For example, the 4th bowl rewarded an implant worth 20,000,000 ISK. So, I recommend paying attention to the reward for special missions.
That's all for now. If you have any questions, let me know in the comments. Crab to all 0/
