How high of standings can I get to the Caldari and Thukker Tribe Factions if I only run missions for those two factions?
Thukker Tribe holds the Caldari at -3.00 and the Caldari hold Thukker Tribe at -2.00. What is the highest standing I could get for both Factions (alternating missions between those two factions)? Is it possible to hit +10.00 with both?

u can technically hti 9.99 with all 4 main empire factions how ( decline any combat missions and run excluseivley level 4 courier missions) no killing of opposing faction , no decline in standings with opposing when u take a courier storyline.
Also a good way to offset losses on the opposing side by keeping it around 0 if u want by running couriers

Cool - thanks.
Is 9.99 pretty much the top? Is 10.0 a theoretical limit that is not actually achievable? (like the limits of a parabola?)

Lets say an agent mission gives you 5% standing.
If you're at 0 standing, that raises you to 0.5.
If you're at 5 standing, that raises you to 5.25.
If you're at 9 standing, it raises you to 9.05.
If you're at 9.99 standing, it raises you to 9.9905.
Its 5% of *the remaining* standing. So to get to 10, you just have to keep going and going until the rounding knocks you over the top, basically.

My goal is to hit high rankings with all factions, too.

When you take a storyline mission the opposing factions will drop positive standings directly proportional to what you gain. All friendly factions will improve standings too.
Do a storyline mission for Gallente, and Minmatar will like you a little bit for it, but Caldari won't like you at all.

So can you hit 9.99 with all factions, or not? If you gain one but lose another, what is the result?

I have no idea. Do some storyline missions for caldari and gallente and do the math, find out how much you lose from opposing factions. If you lose 100% or more in the opposing faction of what you gain then no, it's not possible. If you lose less, then yes, although it'll be one hell of a grind.

There was a thread posted some time ago (CBA to find it), probably in the mission forum, where someone had done the calculations on this. His result (IIRC) was that you could reach somewhere around 5.5 with all factions, but that was as high as you could go.
My views are my own. They do not represent the views of my corporation or alliance. |

This is another thing about missions I dont like. You can succeed a million times, but if you fail once, your standing gets kicked so far down you can lose weeks of work.
Its good that you have a week to try and finish the missions though. Usually you can make it in that time.
