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 doesnā€™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 donā€™t have an EWAR immunity any more, its a 50% resistance in bastion mode.

Itā€™s even worse now, luckily I had Paladin in Amarr space and MJD puts you outside of tracking disruption rangeā€¦ Still was a bit of pain here and tehre

Iā€™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 havenā€™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. Youā€™d have to check contracts for the BPCs themselves.

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 standingsā€¦ some, like my boss on here, runs them consecutively every 90 days each one to keep their standings up for each faction. heā€™s positive to all 4

Youā€™re thinking of COSMOS and career agentsā€¦ those are 1 time onlyā€¦ 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 5/10ā€™s run through these fine?

Whatā€™s the word on standings these days? Regarding faction, assuming itā€™s like always where you can get faction police issues in highsec. Iā€™m thinking about committing to living in and around Minmatar regions anyway.
