Originally by: Elgaris Dukor Regarding the Epic Arcs:
I was really looking forward to them. Im not an uber mission runner. I really get bored quite fast from the ever repeating missions. From the arc i was expextiong some new missions connected by some nice story. So i grabed a ship and piloted it to Josameto where the Caldari Agent is. But what did i find in Josameto? An Agent from a corp i never heard about with a standing requirement of 6.8. Of course i do not have the standing to the corp nor do i have a high enough faction standing towards Cadari State. Maybe that is not a problem at all for hardcore mission runners but the casual mission runner like me wont be able to enjoy this content without many hours of more grinding.
I dont want to run dozends of level 4 missions nor do i have the time for that. So the consequence is that i cant access that content. Sorry but the standing system is just stupid here.
Elgaris.
I feel EXACTLY the same, luckily i found a level 1 and level 2 agent for expert distribution in josameto, so im gonna grab a frig and start the grinding.... |

The epic arc mission agent will send you to another agents from different corps. They all have LVL4 Q16...so you better should have a 6.8 faction standing to get your arc completed. And please no whine about standings requirements for L4 epic arcs...I cant hear that anymore. In other games you also need to work hard to access high end content.

Added the missing quote to post 29, the key point is:
Quote: once you are on an epic arc, agents will no longer make standings checks.

I'm with Speedy Death, 9.8 standings with Brutor Tribe, haha.
Anybody know if Archaelogy is required in first mission of Minmatar arc ?.
Scoped it out yesterday and someone had left a can saying needed to use Analyser I to get objective.

Originally by: Venkul Mul Thanks to problem with the Sisi version I was incapable of getting them before, but here are the agents with the corporation.
Required standing 6.8 with the corporation or the faction
Faction? are you sure? Cos my faction st. is over 7 and my standing with caldari epic arc agent is only 4.3, standing with hes corp is 4,55 so I just gotta get it up. and it looks like u need 6.80 with corp not faction.

100% sure of faction standing being enough !
I had 6.75 Amarr standing and they wouldnt talk to me. Did a cosmos mission and got 6.82 and they talked to me. My standing to their corp is like.... 1.2 or something... doesnt matter.
All hail the faction standing !

Well my caldari faction (9.05) doesn't help me talk to the agent. Effective standing 0.0, now 1.2 after doing a mission for Expert Distributions. Is this a bug or working as intended.
It's a bug. They took down the Caldari epic arc until next week to fix it.

I bought the mission item off the market, so I cannot answer this question.

Epic arcs don't expire. Feel free to accept it and go see :) The agent is more patient than most, he'll wait for you to finish your training if required.

Can you run an epic mission arc more than once? (I thought it is like COSMOS missions, only one ticket...)

Gallente gives you a choice between a Black Eagle Drone Link Augmentor, 22km range, 5 less cpu and a Syndicate Cloaking Device. Personally I took the Link as the cloak looked worthless.
Are these suppossed to be a one time deal ala cosmos? Tried to start the chain over again and the agent said to 'come back later' Guess I'll run the Minmitar chain in the mean time.

The Caldari agent is bugged and he is not giving missions. Maybe today hotfix has corrected that.

I did the old Lvl 1 Epic Mission Arc for the Sisters of EVE which was introduced a few month ago. In chapter 7 theres one mission where you have to analyze an archaeology dig site. To do so you'll receive a Civilian Analyzer (this module is not listed in EFT or EVEMon) for free. That Civilian Analyzer got only a 2% Access Dificulty Bonus (compared to the 5% of the T1 and the 7% of the T2 Analyzer version) so it may take a while to get a result BUT there are no skill requirements to use this module. This should save you some training time.

I may be remembering wrong, but don't count on this. I think the last time I mistook that civvy analyzer for the real thing and tried it on a non-lvl 1 epic mission I got a message saying it wouldn't work...
