Updated few small things to make the guide more correct

Suggested Caldari reward is no longer worth that much, I will investigate in few days if other options are faster / better suited, but for now, going this route doesn’t add that much in completion time, so I will keep it for now as suggested route.

thx for your work. Just might want to change that Marauders don’t have an EWAR immunity any more, its a 50% resistance in bastion mode.

It’s even worse now, luckily I had Paladin in Amarr space and MJD puts you outside of tracking disruption range… Still was a bit of pain here and tehre

I’ve become a pretty infrequent player myself these days. Sounds like you already took a look at the market, but the last time I ran the numbers the blueprints built at a loss and so I haven’t bothered building mine. I seem to recall the stats on the replacement standup module got nerfed and so demand disappeared.

I have a spreadsheet that compares possible rewards for each arc. Currently the formula I have for building the blueprint shows a range of 30M-12M loss, so pills should definitely be better than building them. You’d have to check contracts for the BPCs themselves.

I’m a new player 7 month old. I want to say thank you for thos really helpful infomation you provided with your link.

Hey guys, I have another general question about epic arcs. Do you repeat them as soon as you can? I had this impression you could only do them once for some reason.

It depends on if you are trying to fix standings… some, like my boss on here, runs them consecutively every 90 days each one to keep their standings up for each faction. he’s positive to all 4

You’re thinking of COSMOS and career agents… those are 1 time only… but the epic arcs are every 90 days.

I have 2 accounts and I have 6 characters, so I usually run them in batches of 3 at the time. My mains do the missions, while the other 2 characters on opposite account are used as pullers.

I would say I do them on average inside 120 days. 90 days is minimum, but I am not that precise every time. And lately with SoE I am a bit lazy :smiley:

Hey @Geo_Eclipse_Oksaras and @Sentenced_1989 I appreciate the advice and insights. Thanks for your replies.

I am definitely looking forward to running the pirate epic arcs again. I recall the awards being pretty lucrative and the missions were actually very fun.

I never did attempt the Minmatar epic arc. Will a Tengu fitted for Angels 5/10’s run through these fine?

What’s the word on standings these days? Regarding faction, assuming it’s like always where you can get faction police issues in highsec. I’m thinking about committing to living in and around Minmatar regions anyway.
