Hello Locutious, Thank you very much for posting this positive review, it’s good to know ‘The Plan’ helped you gain access to all of the Epic Arcs. I wish you much success in maintaining good standings with all Empire Factions. Thank you once again. DMC ---

Thank you very much. Even though ‘The Plan’ was created 10 years ago, it’s still as effective and viable today as it was back then. ---

hey man, quick question… regarding faction warfare, you know how those play into standings? looking at eve wiki table is a bit confusing… from my understanding, as long as I don’t do FW missions or complete plexes, I can shot whom ever I want and standings won’t change? ---

> [@Sentenced\_1989](#): > > I can shot whom ever I want and standings won’t change? That’s not entirely true, as you will take a standings hit to the militia/corp whose ships you destroy. After spending some time in low sec I have terrible standings with State Protectorate, Tribal Liberation Force and 24th Imperial Crusade and bad standings with Federal Defense Union & Federal Navy Academy… and I wasn’t in FW 🙂 Having said that, it wasn’t bad enough to ruin faction standings with the 4 major factions, though the Min faction standings are only just positive (I have run copious amounts of L4 missions for Caldari, Amaar & SoE). Regards, Cypr3ss. ---

Yeah, @Cypr3ss_Deteis is correct. You’ll incur negative standings with the Militia Corps for destroying their ships. However it won’t impact your Faction standings. ---

After careful consideration due to conflicting interests and the fact that ‘The Plan’ is a self-help guide and not an in-game service for hire, I’ve decided to remove the United Standings Improvement Agency link from the original post of this thread. ---

Can I just say what a brilliant guy you are DeMichael, you do not get enough credit. You put in all the hard work into making this guide originally. On top of that, you’re still answering people’s questions, what the best part of a decade or longer latter. If EVE wasn’t really dying, I’d suggest CCP should get of their fat arses and buy you a top of the range pc as a thank you. You’ve helped countless numbers of players over the years. Some would of probably even quit if it weren’t for your guide and help. Anyway thank you, you’re truly are a star mate o7 ---

Wow, thank you very much, I definitely appreciate it. Back when I created ‘The Plan’, the general consensus was you had to pick a side and that was it. I was working for Thukker Tribe and at that time they had negative standings with all Factions including Minmatar. The more standings I gained with Thukker, the more standings I lost with all other Factions, eventually getting to the point of no longer being able to freely travel in High Sec space. Since I was selling Thukker Shield Extenders and wanted to do business in all of the main Trade Hubs, I needed to fix that issue asap. After 3 months of extensive research, I compiled all of the info together and after a test run to make sure it worked, shared my findings with the community and forever changed Capsuleer history books with ‘The Plan’. I truly believe that in Eve, Information is King and Communication is it’s Queen. Thank you once again for the compliments in recognition of ‘The Plan’. May you have a long rewarding career in Eve. ---

IMO you should be able to run the epic arks as often as you like. Without the final rewards but keep the standing boost. Evey three months you should get the rewards again. ---

Redoing the Epic Arcs every 3 months is fine. Would be great to have Cosmos Agents available again within a year after completion. ---
