Caldari
Choice for evil:
40M if you go 33J, the last 2 into null sec
30M if you go 30J into low sec.
Choice for good:

"Sansha modified gnome slot 7

errm isn't that a fail epic. That's worse hitpoints and worse HP regen then your standard implant unless I got the math wrong. What the point of it? A rare implant that's worse than the normal slot 7 shield implant?
I cannot think of a single situation where would end up better than the 5% hitpoint slot 7 implant.
Saying that I want to buy one just for the fun factor. So if anyone wants to sell it I will pay a good price.

The armor one is gimped too.
Standard Armor Implants:
Zet4000 5% Repaired Amount ( Slot 9 )
Zet5000 5$ Armor HP (Slot 10 )
Zet5000 "Noble" is 7% Armor HP (Slot 10 )
While I could use it to get 7% repaired amount, why would I that 5% HP gives me a better EHP in most cases.

/shrug
low skill requirements to use it.
Point of it, is the same as the point of the arcs themselves.
Background info on the world, roleplay reasons, for something different to do from the routine.
If you're looking for AWESOME EPIC REWARDS!!! then it's going to be a disappointment.
The Amarr arc is fine as is. Lots of background information, rewards are just icing on the cake.

Amarr rewards seem really nice compared to Gallente one tho lol
Also... you can redo Epic Arcs every 3 months or something? Would you be able to get rewards again?

c'mon really. The story is a cheap soap opera, uveboll could have done better. The missions themselves are about as challenging, as a regular sansha blockade. Lots of meat to cut through.
Only the last one was a bit of fun both in challenge factor and story - and that is exclusevely due to maniac ravings of the bad guy.
I'm talking about amarr arc here - highsec path of it.
And it's neither challenging, nor rewarding. And it's no fun mostly too.
Epic fail for ccp, what were they doing for 4 month i dunno.

Disappointed here, both in the rewards and the missions themselves.
Seems like Epic arcs are another overhyped unfinished feature.
Instead of spending resources on actually making EVE not suck, they develop a console shooter. Ha!

Does the Syndicate Cloaking Device have a Velocity Penalty and/or allow you to warp while cloaked? What are the skill requirements for it?
I have never done epic arcs before, I assume during the epic arc you make a choice along the way to be "good" or "bad"? If so, does it have a standing impact? Can you do the epic arcs over again or is it once per toon?

You can't warp while cloaked with this storyline cloak. It is a varient of any other cloaking device so if you get info on a cloaking device ingame and go to the variations tab you can easily find out the exact stats on the syndicate one.

All missions you do in the arc will have standings changes in a similar way to lvl 4 missions, I don't know if they specifically have a greater effect or not.
You can only do the epic arcs once every.... 3 months I think? There is definitely a long period between repeats on each toon.

So I finished the arc... I think? And that's it - no item reward at all, just ISK?
Finished THE BOTTOM LINE with "A Difference of Opinion" and lastly "Home In Peace"...
"Sinas put in a good word for me to some ôwell-placedö friends of his, promising that my deeds would not go unnoticed. He also gave me some ISK, apparently it was part of the ransom that Ishukone would have been forced to pay to keep Isha silent.
He said my work was done now though; that I had in fact done more than anyone expected. He wished me well, and sent me back on my way."
25 mil reward. Which is nice, don't get me wrong. But I can get ISK anywhere... and the other races have a unique item reward - so why doesn't Caldari? (I see the Hyasyoda Lab listed, but not sure if that's really an epic arc reward... and if it is, how to get it)
So how is it other races get an item reward, but not Caldari?

The items are of no use whatsoever. Be happy you got ISK.

choice 1: ISK 7 Million iirc.
choice 2: RSS Core scanner probes
45 scan strength
15 mins. staying time
other stats identical to sister probes.
good and bad is a matter of opinion though and I'm not actually sure that was the end of the arc  , It ended on my choice however and was heck short imo and totally underwhelming.

This means you got through the mission with 700000 m3 cargo as the reward, I assume. Did you return the item in a freighter?

Especially if you compare it to an item that gives you a whopping extra 2km drone control range over the base item. Coupled with the ... dubious path you have to follow during the Gallente arc I think it's clear now that Caldari have won EVE.

I managed to get to this mission, but the one prior to it borked on me and after hacking the shipyard it just disappeared as a container. Maybe I blew it up I don't know. So I declined the mission, and now the whole arc has reset. BAH.

The Minmatar "choice for bad" reward is 141000 ISK. You have got to be ****ing kidding me. I went that path on one character thinking that perhaps there was another mission after it, nope, just a thank you.

Mission: Playing all Their Cards (Level 4 ARC, Minmatar)
I can't complete this mission since i don't have 700km2 in my cargo space (i can't fly obelisk) but agent told me to dock into station and that he'll transfer 700km2 reward to the station that i am docked in .. but sadly that doesn't happens as he requires that i meet with him personally .. so what can i do ?
Is this a bug in the system since you can't accept the award / complete the mission ??

It works if you have a freighter. I brought an Obelisk over to complete it. The GM told me they are looking into this one.

Do note however that the Hyashoda Lab requires 600CPU; that's akin to the advanced labs and 100 more CPU requirement than the regular labs. PG requirements for both are similar.
Theoretically if you were to fully expend the 7,500CPU on a Caldari Control Tower between two scenarios, one with all Hyashoda (12 onlined possible) or regular mobile labs (15 onlined possible), you're looking at these figures:
Hyashoda Package:
48 ME Slots
48 PE Slots
72 Invention Slots
Regular Lab Package:
45 ME Slots
45 PE Slots
75 Invention Slots
15 Copy Slots
Hyashoda trumps by (only) 3 ME and 3 PE slots, and loses out by 3 Invention Slots to a regular setup, not to mention totally lacks the 15 copy slots. Keep in mind that between the two labs the job time bonuses are similar, so there's no improvements on the Hyashoda lab in that area. I won't deny the fact that someone somewhere renting out some research service will plausible find this worthwhile. Personally to me, it's quite meager.
This aside, I would like to see Epic Arcs being a source of challenge, fun and a major shakeup from regular, rehearsed L4 mission grinding; if it fails even that, then...(have not done them myself, I hate missions).
Still, it doesn't detract from the fact that all other faction's (amarr/gallente/minmatar) Epic Arc rewards seems to pale in comparison, at the very least in monetary value.
P.S. I do foresee the pills being of a good niche demand. No drawbacks? Hey, I'll take those!

It's what it says in the list, one was isk one was the probes.
As for earlier in the thread, yes I used a freighter to turn in the item in exchange for 7 million useless counterfeir credits, on sisi it's pretty easy, I would've bugreported it but this was post deployment anyway.

Seeing as how the regular mobile lab is 3, 3, 5 and is selling for 90M, I have a feeling is going to be a very popular route for epic missioners.
Especially if you compare it to an item that gives you a whopping extra 2km drone control range over the base item. Coupled with the ... dubious path you have to follow during the Gallente arc I think it's clear now that Caldari have won EVE.
Not Caldari has won but bubbles and campers in syndicate region. Basically impossible to deliver the mission item to KFR-ZE. Epic failure lol

sounds like ccp really failed and most people will just keep farming lvl 4's in high sec. as usual. more isk per hr. vrs have fun, maybe get blown up and lose lots of isk.
i guess depends on how much isk you need vrs. how much fun you want to have. i think the main problem is ccp makes it soo that you really have to spend way to much time getting the isk needed to be able to have more fun?
at this point in my eve life. thinking it may be best to just turn pirate, sit around/camp and kill. may even get lucky on some poor guys miseay. 
edit: don't forget to fit your ships with nice faction/officer stuff. those rats are tuff.

So let me get this straight, my enticement to do the 'bad' arc for minmatar is 7mil credits??? Really? I get that in one normal Lvl4 mission.
And probes for the 'good' side? wow. how about a badass probe launcher, or afterburner or something that isn't going to get used up.
Why is it that Caldari are always the "I win" of PvE? that factory is the only thing in the whole list worth going for. What a bunch of lame crap.

I still find it hard to believe that there is no item for the Minmatar "bad" choice, I'm more of the mind that its broken and the item isn't being given out like it should.
Would be nice for a dev to comfirm the list & that the isk reward is infact the intended reward.
The probes can be called back and you can uise the again, over and over. However with the 15 minutes timer you're likey to have them out to long at some point and loose them. Sisters probes last an hour.

This has been confirmed as a bug. I submitted a bug report on it last week. They are looking into it: "thank you for updating this, after further consideration we will investigate on this mission in cooperation with our developers." So, I'd say sometime in the next millenium they'll fix it.
...this doesn't even seem to be a regular case of rats fleeing the sinking ship. Seems more like the rats are on fire, the ship is on fire, and the sea is full of drunk Russians. - Jacob Etienne |

The reward list is pretty accurate. The caldari arc holds more than 2 possible endings, three are known until now.
Boosters, money or the lab. According to your choices in branching.
I finished the amarr arc and the caldari arc. Got the lab from the caldari arc, but just because I wanted that one and had a look at the needed branches here on forums. Thread is called Caldari epic arc path discussion or something like that.

I ran the 0.0 courier mission and the hardest of the branches to end up with a 25m reward. I mean since when does doing the harder choice give the shi**y reward.

At least the epic reward drone range module is easier to fit than the regular one. I'd consider that the valuable part, not the extra 2 km of range.

How much CPU/grid does the epic lab eat? I mean, is it more efficient?

You have probably figured this out by now, but you drop the formula into the mission can that shows up when you get to the encounter. It is next to the research facility I believe. If all of the encounters are the same, it is 90+ km from the warp-in point.

Just posting to confirm that the second option for the end of the Minmatar epic arc is, indeed, a paltry six digit figure in isk. The Epic arc never seemed to branch, however, until the very end.
So maybe they only intended there to be one reward? I don't know anyone who took option #2 though, so there could be a hidden surprise waiting for someone willing to take the leap.

I also chose the wrong option at the end of the Minmatar epic and just got the standard six figure reward and time bonus for the courier mission. There wasn't even anything obvious stating that the arc was over; just the lack of a next mission really.
I was so confused by this that I petitioned it (as I'd had previously to have a mission in the arc reset by GMS).
After a brief to-and-fro, the answer from the senior GM was that it is working as designed.
I can't remember ever being so completely underwhelmed on completion of anything in any game ever. Its not even making me angry. Its just pure disinterest, probably the worst possible feeling for a game (entertainment?) to provoke.
0/10 CCP.

Choice For Bad:
Reported as broken. - Isk Reward
Mission isn't broken (or is no longer).
Hiva Shesha (the agent that give mission) clearly say she give us the choice to reveal or not the secret of St. Arzad.
Epic arc end when we make the choice.
Note this is not the "choice for the bad" but the choice for revealing truth.
The called "choice for good" is the choice for concealing truth.
Reward is 25M isk.
