There are known and unknown parts that I figured out about missions.
Known parts that affect missions:
- Region -> This is by far most affecting factor for NPC missions, examples below
Amarr -> Sansha
Ammatar -> Blood
Gallente -> Serpentis
Caldari -> Guristas
Minmatar -> Angels
Khanid -> Sansha/Blood (not sure, I think it might be Blood only)
This pretty much covers most of default missions
Agent -> Agent itself has a secondary selections of missions based on his faction
From what I gathered, Minmatar agent in Amarr space will tend to give you some missions against Angels, but that is pretty much insignificant
Agents have a mission pool. That is for sure, just CCP won't release data about that, but for example running for 2 agents in same constellation, same faction (for example 2 Amarr agents in Domain), I've never got Dread Pirate Scarlet from one of them, but other one is giving it out regularly.
So your best bet is to go to agent and run several missions to see how you like him. My current agent in domain gives me loads of
Massive Attack vs Serps
Dread Pirate Scarlet
Vengeance vs Sansha
Blockade vs Sansha
Sansha spies vs Sansha
Duo of death vs Sansha
Angel Extravaganza (keep in mind there is no Sansha version of this mission, so proly this is default mission for amarr space regarding Extravaganzas).
Here and there I get some other missions that are vs Angles, but those missions don't have Sansha versions and I'm suspecting I'm getting Angel versions because of the agent himself (he is Minmatar agent)
So general formula I found out is:
Randomize mission from pool.
If there is region specific mission, provide mission vs those rats
If there is no version of mission vs those region specific rats, provide mission against rats usually found in agents original space
Also, I've noted that regarding anti-faction missions, agents corporation has some play to it. Working for Amarr Navy or Caldari Navy will give you more missions vs Gallente and Minmatar then working for Amarr Civil News or something similar. Keep in mind that's my notice, not something confirmed.
In any case, yea, would be great if we could see agents pools, but we can't, and they definitely exist in some form or other
