Like the others have said I have little desire to become a kill board notice by being forced into low/no sec in a ship that is not setup for PvP encounters and providing some cheap entertainment and loot for pirates.
I am basically a miner/industrialist that does missions for a break from that so my combat skills are adequate against rats and would not stand a chance against professional pirates.
give better loot for epics that run in low/no sec but also give epic missions that run only in 0.5 and above space. do that and there will be a lot more mission runners willing to do the epic missions.
I think the summery of what people want in epic missions
* Missions in EITHER low sec or high sec
* Rewards that are in scale to the time/risk involved in running a epic mission (If I am going to spend 7 days to complete a epic lvl 4 mission then I want the at lest have to rewards equal of doing the same number of lvl 4 missions from a agent of the same quality)
* Missions that feel like they do have and effect on the universe
In the future I would like to see epic missions for agents levels 1 to 5 but I am not holding my breath.

When I completed the Sisters Epic it still felt like just another mission. There was no sense of success. The only thing about the Sisters epic that I want to visit again is the recon mission observing the enemy fleet is that I want to try and take on the fleet and kill as many as I can solo to strip and loot. Other than that I ran through that epic in a raven armed only with rockets and light drones just to use up my stash of rockets. If I had a real weapons layout and did not stop to salvage and take every piece of loot then I could have finished that in 2-3 days.
Nothing is more dangerous than a idiot who thinks he has a good idea. And my ideas are brilliant
The only reason I will look at the sisters epic again is to try and take on the fleet otherwise the sisters epic is just a bland mission overall.

The chat window has 5 options.
1: F off you self, curse him, this triggers combat.
2: I am looking for x here is a low x mill donation/bribe. This triggers me getting info without a fight.
3: I am looking for x here is a low 1000 isk donation/bribe. Triggers deeper chat line and he is not happy at the disrespect lose standings? or just a deeper chat tree with more options.
4: I do a diplomacy check and say something fancy. Based on social skills I either get what I want for free or end up in combat. x % chance of respond based on social skills. Makes the unused charisma skills more useful.
5: I offer a stupidly high bribe and get a bonus reward/ extra info.
6: You guys need anything doing, in exchange for info? I get what I wont in the end but need to do an extra task.
I like that idea and think that it could be used in regular missions as well this will make combat monkeys happy as well as those that would be happy to pay a fee to speed up finishing the mission to if they are doing them for standings.

I'm not going to spoil it for everyone else, but there are some triggers most of you are missing because you are just "lvl4'ing it". Just because you think you have finished it, does not mean there is no more to do.
One of the reasons that I will be redoing the Sisters epic in a different ship and a different layout is to get a second opinion of it
Oh and to try and take on the the massive npc fleet myself

i consider myself a noob (about 7mil sp) so please disreguard this message if i'm wrong. ok so i been running level 4 missions for months now and i have never heard about these missions. ofcourse i have heard about them from sites but shouldnt u be told by agents about it? there is a lot of things like this one that unless its looked up on other sites, i would have never hear about them.
My padwan when you become strong in the power of pwanage the grand poobar himself will impart the information you need to find the agents as was done to me
but i did ind a net search was faster and clearer
