Arthur Frayn V.O.F.L IRON CORE	Posted - 2008.04.27 18:28:00 - [1] "A Special Delivery" It's a mission where you need to haul 40,000m3 of cargo, sometimes over 20 jumps, with a bonus of 5 million isk if completed within two hours. Complete waste of time and effort for a tiny faction standing increase and far less isk than you can make running a level 4. If the reward was 50 million, it'd be worth the effort. This sh** needs to be reviewed. -- Eve needs a dose of Top Gun without the sweaty shower scenes.
Marcus D'Eriellius Gallente Oddball Navy Cosmic Anomalies	Posted - 2008.04.27 18:49:00 - [2] Get a pimped Iteron V and you can do it in one run. The faction increase isn't tiny either. Nothing wrong with this mission.
Dario Wall Caldari Black Legion Industries	Posted - 2008.04.27 18:51:00 - [3] Originally by: Marcus D'Eriellius Get a pimped Iteron V and you can do it in one run. The faction increase isn't tiny either. Nothing wrong with this mission. Yeah seriously. I had a corp mate help me with it since I can't use transport ships, and we made it in one run. Faction standings went from about 5.10 to 5.51 I believe. Definitely not a "tiny" increase.
Iracham Gallente	Posted - 2008.04.27 19:02:00 - [4] Faction increase is the same as a combat storyline, but yeah, it's annoying as hell, Best industrial I can fly is a bestower, and it takes 3 trips. Farthest I've had to go was 5 jumps away though.
Aki Corrino	Posted - 2008.04.27 19:14:00 - [5] 5 jumps is what i usually get yeah, sometimes thru low sec tho
Venkul Mul Gallente	Posted - 2008.04.27 19:19:00 - [6] Generally you get the "20 jump route" only if you avoid low sec. Untick the "prefer safer" box and you will see a 4-5 jump roiute with one or more in low sec. Naturally then there is the little problem of running in low sec with a pimped Iteron V, that has the agility of a sloth (this one sloth, not the vice).
FT Diomedes Gallente Ductus Exemplo	Posted - 2008.04.28 00:16:00 - [7] It's usually only five jumps, but I don't really want to shell out the ISK for the super pimped Iteron V it would take to make it in one trip. I usually get a corp mate or two to help me with it. ------------ Improvize. Adapt. Overcome.

Skrofl	Posted - 2008.04.28 10:11:00 - [10] Originally by: FT Diomedes It's usually only five jumps, but I don't really want to shell out the ISK for the super pimped Iteron V it would take to make it in one trip. I usually get a corp mate or two to help me with it. And how much cargospace will a 'pimped' Iteron V have, exactly? What mods is needed?
Erilia	Posted - 2008.04.28 11:18:00 - [11] Originally by: Arthur Frayn "A Special Delivery" Complete waste of time and effort for a tiny faction standing increase. I'm pretty sure this mission gives a very nice faction boost, comparable to other L4 kill storylines like Shipyard Theft.
Jmanis Catharg Caldari Stickler inc	Posted - 2008.04.28 11:22:00 - [12] Cargo Expander IIs and cargo rigs. Standard hi sec suicide bait.
Sudabank	Posted - 2008.04.30 05:44:00 - [13] + 10 GSCs..= 39746m3.
agrajag119 Sev3rance	Posted - 2008.04.30 06:23:00 - [14] Not that it's particularly on-topic, but a t1 rigged itty V with gsc's holds : Base ship w/ expander II's + 3 x cargo rigs -> 38,433.1 12 GSC's gives -> 12 * 900 extra -> 10,800 For a grand total of -> 49233.1m3
Bushgallam	Posted - 2008.04.30 07:26:00 - [15] Originally by: agrajag119 Not that it's particularly on-topic, but a t1 rigged itty V with gsc's holds : Base ship w/ expander II's + 3 x cargo rigs -> 38,433.1 12 GSC's gives -> 12 * 900 extra -> 10,800 For a grand total of -> 49233.1m3 If I remember correctly, the goods in this mission are 40 1000m3 crates/containers, meaning you can only fit 3 of them in a GSC (internal volume 3900m3, external volume 3000m3 )... So they don't help. I think you need a T2 cargo rig to make it.
Guvante GALAXIAN	Posted - 2008.04.30 09:02:00 - [16] Yeah, they are 40 boxes at 1000 m3 each, meaning no boxes to help. You need an Iteron V with a T2 Cargo Rig + 2x T1 Cargo Rig, decked out in Expanded Cargo Hold 2's to make it in one trip. Although that is one extremly expensive Industrial.
Caleese New Eden Research And Design School	Posted - 2008.04.30 09:51:00 - [17] I just did the lvl 3 version, which you can do easily in a transport, and got a 0.14 standings increase which kinda annoyed me because I'm grinding corp standings and this is the second time in a row I've got the bottom end of storyline missions. I just want to punch my agent in the face.... but that probably wouldn't help my standings Guess I'm just frustrated of wading through yet ANOTHER 16 missions just to get a crappy storyline mission, at least with regular missions you can turn down a crappy one once every 4 hours. ----------------- Think of someone you consider of average intelligence... now realise this. Half the worlds population is dumber than that person. How does the world survive such stupidity?
Cheyenne Shadowborn Caldari Noob Much Inc.	Posted - 2008.04.30 15:36:00 - [18] Originally by: Arthur Frayn "A Special Delivery" It's a mission where you need to haul 40,000m3 of cargo, sometimes over 20 jumps[/ quote] Got me from -0.36 to +0.48 recently. Totally worth it, unlike the other cargo storylines. --
Pwett Minmatar QUANT Corp. QUANT Hegemony	Posted - 2008.04.30 15:52:00 - [19] crappy storyline? More like materials for war preparation. Like I need another charisma implant. I do these things for the faction standings, and those aren't even worth my time if there's no kernite in the immediate system. _______________ Pwett CEO, Founder, & Executor <Q> QUANT Hegemony
CetusOfAsuran GHOSTS OF THE FIRST AND ONLY	Posted - 2008.04.30 17:54:00 - [20] Originally by: Caleese Edited by: Caleese on 30/04/2008 09:56:26 I just did the lvl 3 version, which you can do easily in a transport, and got a 0.14 standings increase which kinda annoyed me because I'm grinding corp standings and this is the second time in a row I've got the bottom end of storyline missions. I just want to punch my agent in the face.... but that probably wouldn't help my standings Guess I'm just frustrated of wading through yet ANOTHER 16 missions just to get the same crappy storyline mission I got last time, at least with regular missions you can turn down a crappy one once every 4 hours. Dont forget if you dont do the story mission after 16 missions you will get another story mission with a different agent, may help slightly and i like to stack about 4 up as spreads the corp increase between different ones.
Caleese New Eden Research And Design School	Posted - 2008.05.01 10:33:00 - [21] In my period of rage/frustration I had one of those "Ohgod!! Of course !!" moments. Don't forget to do cosmos missions (hand in tags for instant faction standing increase) if you're trying to grind faction standings. I went from 4.81 standings with the Gallente faction, to 5.24 just from buying 40 tags and handing them in. Plus doing them for Minmatar gives about an 80% increase in Gallente standing and vice versa. (Also applies for Caldari/Amarr) ----------------- Think of someone you consider of average intelligence... now realise this. Half the worlds population is dumber than that person.
