How much isk can be earned and are there only security missions involved, or a mix of everything? Just adding up the base rewards comes to roughly 14-15m, give or take, however that doesn't include the bounties on the rats, or indeed the value of any nice loot drops you might pick up, should you choose to loot everything. If you intend to do this then I'd recommend training for a salvage module if you can spare a high slot, or a salvage drone. It might not be worth as much as it was, but a few bits and pieces of t1 salvage can still be worth a bit to someone starting out. As to your second question, it's not all security; there are a few distribution type missions thrown in, although if you're using a frigate there's one in particular where you may not have enough room to cram it in; I'd recommend taking a cargo extender if you're not using a destroyer. Apart from that, the majority is indeed combat, with one hack objective late on... they provide a free module to complete that though, so you don't have to bring anything specific for it. Cool, Think I'm gonna try my luck then :) Thanks David Do not leave it to luck .. look up the mission guides. Most of the missions are just distribution/travel but three in particular can be difficult/deadly. One has frigates that scram you and orbits too fast for new players with long range guns, one will neut you and then there is Dagan of course who needs good DPS to kill.
Ok, I've found a guide for the SOE epic arc, think I'm gonna follow it, looks legit SOE Epic Arc Guide

It might depend on the race you are running it for. The last few times I've run it for Minmatar, I was only target painted.
The neut in the other missions isn't a concern because the NPC are so weak. |

That character an alt also? You, the player, have played EvE before?
The thing about this signature is that by the time you realise it doesn't say anything interesting you're almost done reading it anyway.

By the time you get to the Dagan mission, you've made more than enough for a cruiser and likely have begun training into one. This makes the process easier and prepares you to go straight into L2 missions thereafter - which you'll need a Cruiser for. I finished the arc within my first week in EvE - it was a great learning experience and felt like it kept me moving up the ladder in a natural feeling way.
In essence, L1s -- Sisters Arc -- L2s -- L3s --L4s. At that point, you can choose to do your faction epic Arc, branch into a new field or just keep grinding L4s. |

Dagan doesn't hit very hard, he just has annoyingly high tank for an L1-equivalent mission, so yes, a cheap destroyer is the way to go, fit with every bit of damage you can find and minimal tank. It'll work for basically all races, though Algos is the obvious choice if you've got a choice. |

I noticed new players like myself asking in local for help to kill this guy a few times so thought I would show how I did it being a new player in the same boat. I am only a few days old and hardly any skills past lvl 1-2 but you can kill Dagan with a noob skilled Algos destroyer in just a minute or two of shooting with the right amount of damage to break his tank.
I used 3 t1 medium explosive damage drones and 5 t1 meta 4 blasters with cheapy faction antimatter ammo. Kill the escorts with light drones and then switch to mediums, orbit Dagan at 500m, web him and blast away until dead. The afterburner just means he can never hit you as long as you are orbiting him at 500m. He was dead in 1-2 mins with this setup. All he used on me was a target painter and that did not seem to do anything with my speed up.
Anyway hope that help my skills are crap and I am only 3+ days old char so it is possible. I chose Caldari option for the missions if that changes anything.

I've been neuted by him too, IIRC Dagan's fit and tactics change, or used to anyway, depending on the faction you team up with for the mission.
Civilized behaviour is knowing that violence is barbaric, but paying other people to do it is business.
