Disclaimer
I'm sure the original developers of this new method have filed petition to confirm this is not an exploit, especially after seeing what happened to the goons when they tried to exploit FW for ISK, however as I don't have it in writing I have taken the liberty of petitioning for myself to confirm this is legitimate gameplay. In the mean time exercise caution as there is a small chance the following practice may constitute an exploit.
You Will need
A character capable of flying a Tengu / Tier 3 BC (standings and faction irrelevant) Several TLF alts with L4 mission access
You Will Get
The ability to farm missions in 1 system without having to travel anywhere or worry about being killed.
If done well the ability to acquire up to 500k LP / hour (~2.5bn ISK)
Method
Accept several missions on several alts in Olfeim. (The L4 TLF agent in Olfeim only gives missions to Tzvi)
Set clone location to Tzvi.
Destroy Pods.
Spawn missions in Tzvi.
Set clone location to Olfeim.
Destroy Pods
Use your mains to quickly complete the missions in Tier 3 BCs and Tengus in Tzvi.
????
Profit.

So how is that different from having 6 two days old alts in gunless frigs pulling 300m/h each in plexes? BTW 500k LP/h is like 1 mission every 2.5 min? How is this guy doing this... that fast? Maybe he's using like 5 chars for pulling and 1 for killing, that would be more like it, and it's approx the same that ppl do in best npc 0.0 missions blitzing only fastest ones, rejecting others. |

300m/hr from plexes? I think that's some favourable calculation there. True this is also possible but this is of limited supply, whereas the tactic I listed is effectively infinite.

Yes essentially. I believe missions where supposed to be balanced by making you travel around through hostile space and thus inducing some risk, which is contrary to what is listed above. Its not really the same I don't have any problem with people declining missions.

Assuming 5k isk/LP as you did in your oroginal post, 300m/hr is only 60k lp/hr, which is trivially easy to do. |

Correct. Didn't wait until after, unlike goons. And the GM's confirmed that an agent sending ALL mission whores to just one system is "as intended"?
Either CCP truly and irrevocably want Eve to become a massive farm like WoW et al. or the GM who handled the case has ineptitude written all over him.
PS: Third option is that GM was not given actual useful data and/or was dragged to his evaluation by careful manipulative wording of petition .. but we player are honourable folk and would never such a thing!!!

so, even when there's no amarr systems to plex in, there's still a large LP source, which doesn't have competition for it, only requires people to be able to keep the opposition out of Tzvi, and cannot be shut off, because Olfeim isn't a contestable system?
that's amazing! |

I think the problem lies in poorly thought through game mechanics. (I mean the goon exploit was obviously going to happen, I even chatted about it with others but never put the effort in to find the items with silly 'values' or work out how to manipulate them)
This is clearly an exploit as if agents were only supposed to send missions to one system they all would, don't pretend this is 'working as intended'.
And yes Sreegs is the blunt tool that comes in to defend CCP's eHonour after they invariably screw up (ATX, FW etc..) and generally posting as if there is some kind of award for beating DCM at [the one that isn't - ship-toasting] |

Yes anyone can enter a FW plex this is in line with not creating a safe haven in low sec for people to run these sites with impunity and anything can be done in this game with the proper number of alts including making billions per hour.

Again ANYONE can enter a FW mission so I donGÇÖt see how you are safe from being killed. Also I do not see how a nine jump journey to or from the systems you stated is " not traveling anywhere " this alone could get you killed. Even if they are destroying their pods this is isk down the toilet not a very effective way of traveling if you ask me.

Again ANYTHING can be done with any number of alts this is nothing new and your statement of " this agent ONLY gives missions to Tzvi " is incorrect.
Even if what you say about a agent is correct ( but i have tried it with ALL the agents and have been sent to other places apart from Tzvi quite obviously there is some overlap but nothing indicating anything being BROKEN ) this is not the issue I am seeing with faction warfare.
The issue I am seeing with Faction warfare is the fact that any side ( assuming proper system control of the area ) can go from tier 1 to 5 in the space of a few hours but hay you guys do not want to admit this...    |

BTW, "getto clone jumping" noob alts to FW mission systems has been happening forever. Step 1. Create alt corp. Step 2. Open offices in key enemy systems. Step 3. Pick up missions and "Ghetto jump" to nearby station to open them. Let main complete mission.
Lather, rinse, repeat. Been happening for ages. Going to be interesting when CCP implements "can only run mission in enemy territory" feature. Will I be able to pick up a mission in Villore and run it in Vifravaert (for example)?
Farmers gonna farm. If you carefully listen you'll notice that underneath all that farming noise, lots of pvp happens in FW - more than your 0.0 cartel leaders would like you to know.

I'm aware, but this is fundamentally different as it required the use of a clearly bugged mechanics.
This thread was simply to draw attention to it and stop it, if I was actually doing this stuff clearly I wouldn't post it on the forum and file a petition. I know FW is about PVP and I'd rather we didn't have all this farming rubbish going on, hence whiny, satirical forum threads highlight how silly the current system is, in the hope for change.
