Getting dual standings is not an exploit. There was, however, a brief window where you could get standings from running regular regular drone exploration sites outside of pochven. Regardless, CCP clarified somewhere (possibly on the Edencom Discord -I’m not going to look for it), that getting dual positive standings was not the exploit -it was getting it through an unintended means.

Anyway, I can’t tell you if pochven is worth it or not. You’ll have to [ask the guys that live there](https://forums.eveonline.com/t/stribog-clade-is-recruiting/322799). However, if you do not have a good reason for not having positive standings with the trigs, I suggest you get them. It makes navigating around a lot easier and a lot less dangerous. Here’s a guide a wrote a little while back. Everything is still current except, now factions have a tendency to spawn at certain celestials.

Fortunately, any positive standings appear to work. So, it’s really easy if you’re starting from zero. Those that have tanked their standings will need to do some grinding.

Okay, [here’s a link to the relevant patch notes](https://www.eveonline.com/news/view/patch-notes-version-19-06) if anyone is interested. But the TLDR is:

- **Trigs** - Stations and Coduit Loop Stargates
- **Edencom** - sites (I assume this means anomalies, but dunno) and celestials (such as planets)
- **Drifters & Rogue Drones** - Wormholes
- **Conflict Zones** - Planets, Stars, and the Dazh Liminality Locus (the best places to go for those looking to get dual standings).
