First, i apologize for my english (french guy) :)
My problem: I play this game for many many years. Touched almost everything except WH (perhaps because on my very first attemps i got my T3
fleet decimated in minutes..!).
For some time now i play exclusively on PVE mode to get money. For that i cycle the Empire Epics Arcs. I use 3 accounts / 9 toons, doing the missions in paralelle so i get 9 times the rewards! :P Looping the Arcs i became very upset with a BUG about the Faction Standing when finishing the Arc.
Sometimes (most of the time actually) i don't get any Standing gain. When it occur i open a support ticket to get it fixed. On one particular ticket i have to battle agains 2 GM over dozen messages explaining everything in detail to make sure they get it solved. It turned out they didn't reward 3 of my char (for the SOE Epic Arc, that's 150 missions! for... Niet!) They literally scratch their head over their own Standing reward mecanic on this one!
They don't understand how i can have multiple entry of Last Arc Mission completion in the transaction log for a single character, and, at the same time, it was one of the character who didn't received its Standing... i know it sound odd but yeah, it's true and so i have to explained in deep the WHY and HOW (screenshots, long explanations, etc.).
Let me give you a lil peek on this : You see, sometimes it will show multiple time final-mission-completion in the log if you complete the mission while in a fleet, Even if it's not your mission. For exemple, by doing 3 time the final mission in a fleet (3 distinc Epic Act Final Mission) you CAN (not everytime) ended up having 3 entry in the log instead of one... Empire Standing It is NOT supposed to be shared so sometimes the mecanic work as intended and only the owner of the Arc got the full standing. But... sometimes it doesn't work! And standing is shared... It's a mess!! An obscur bug i cannot figure the pattern that's trigger it.
I was wondering if the been-in-fleet-while-completing-Arc was the bug's trigger so i pay attention and disband fleet before completing. No effet. I try some other things up like disconnect-reconnect before completion, i try having the Arc owner (some dummy alt) running side by side with my combats chars so he can get the final move/loot himself... still no gain! Nothing seem to work!! The last 18 Epic Arc i did (more or less) i didn't received any Standing!!!
Does anyone knows anything about this bug, the cause or any hints on how to avoid it? I really want to skip the the 'new' final step on Epic Arc... reporting in the Help Center :( Thank you for the feedback!
Bored at work... ;)

Not sure if this is the problem, but when you are in a fleet for the epic arc missions, only the person who accepted the mission gets the faction standing. Same thing with being fleeted for the faction mission you get after doing 16 regular.
Not sure if that is what the problem is, but it's my guess at least |

Epic Arcs have always been a little buggy from time to time. Hell, CCP can't even fix the old bug of Faction standing increase not automatically updating itself for a single character.
Might try 'Clear all cache files' in 'Reset settings' tab in the Esc menu. That usually cleans up little annoying bugs. Especially good to do after downloading game release patch.
Will probably have to do it for each character, doubtful doing it once will cover all characters on each account.
As for the actual issue, yeah it definitely sounds like a bug that's related to the game mechanic that regulates Faction standing gain when in Fleet.
I suggest from now on before completing the final mission of the arc, first drop the fleet and then complete the arc with the character who accepted the final mission. If the standing increase doesn't log automatically, file a Support Ticket with that character. At least then you won't have to do a lot of replies back and forth explaining why there's multiple listings in the transaction log of each character.
Good luck to you.

Yeah, i figure it out and always drop fleet before completing the Arc.
From now on, i wait for all my character collection to completed the Arc before opening ticket (lesson learn with multiple ticket full of explanation et reference to others ticket).
I sadly become an Expert with Faction Standing Ticket creation... |

I ran a similar setup last year amar epic arc (the right to rule) ..... and roughly, only 1 from 3 chars got the faction standing reward via game mechanics. Can't argue however about the GM's handling my tickets because i got rewarded via ticket without any hassle.
The bug is mentioned on wikipedia site at the bottom of the site under the notes.
" You should receive up to 12.5% Amarr empire faction standing, depending on your level of Social skill. If you do not receive this standings reward, file a petition in-game. "
