As title says is there any difference between them if there is what kind? Is it worth risking your neck in low sec for it? |

The lower the sec status the higher the payout, bonus and lp. Loot and bounties are the same. Pirate faction agents are only available in lowsec afaik. May be true for some agents or divisions of NPC Corps also. Only you can decide if it's worth. |

I may be wrong here. But I am given to understand that mission reward depends upon the security of the system in which the agent giving the mission resides - and then how many jumps away the mission is from the agent's system, (and then connections and stuff from the social skills).
Now - I don't think, (and I may be wrong here), that the missions are affected, either in terms of the agent rewards, or the contents and bounties of such missions, by what the security status of the system is in which the mission itself takes place.
To that end most people I speak to don't tend to do missions in lo-sec.
Level 5 missions on the other hand are a different kettle of fish!
Lo Sec combat sites and exploration seem to work better for me. |

I was refering to the information in the Wiki so I may be wrong also  . The wiki is wrong about the agent quality (it has been removed a while ago) so I wouldn't count on the other aspects. I've run some missions on SiSi lately. Lowsec and Highsec payouts didn't differ much AFAIR.
If one really wants to know the difference, he need to run the same mission for the same NPC corp with (roughly) the same standing in high and lowsec. If the ratio is below 1:10, it doesn't make much sense to run them in low - if you just look at the ISK. There are other reasons to run missions in low. |

iirc the payouts increase by 10% per sec status drop. as an example, a mission that would give you 1000LP in a 1.0 system will give 1500LP in a 0.5 system, 1900LP in a 0.1 system and 3000LP in a -0.99 system.
the problem is that most cheap ships are not exactly well suited for running missions, so you have the choice between risking (and eventually losing) an expensive boat or running missions slower, thereby negating the payout advantage (and still losing your ship once in a while).
that said, there are in fact lowsec mission runner corps out there. they rely on power through numbers to make a lowsec system semi-safe and reap the benefits of higher payouts.

I was wrong - and you are correct! I appologize for this incorrect information I posted. It seems it actually IS the location where the mission happens and not the agent's home system - I was convinced - but you learn something every day. |

did you test that yourself? if so, can you provide numbers/screenshots? i am pretty sure the rewards are based on the agent system security but i never tested it myself so i am curious.

yes its worth it if you have proper intel channels etc
imo one should not bother with low sec missions . may as well go the whole hog and do null sec pirate missions. |

there is difference between "low-sec missions":
1) missions in low-sec given by high-sec agent
2) missions given by low-sec agent
1) - the same reward as missions in high-sec from the same agent. IMO don't worth time ans risk.
2) - would be better. |
