Epic Arc Overview

Starter Agent: Arsten Takalo
Agent Corporation: Brutor Tribe
Agent Location: Frarn System at Brutor Tribe Community Area (Celestial Beacon)
Standings Required: +5.00 Minmatar Republic (Faction) or +5.00 Brutor Tribe (Corporation) AND >-2.0 Minmatar Republic (Faction)
Additional Requirements: Hacking III and Archaeology III (skill), Data Analyzer and Relic Analyzer (module)
Recommended Ships: Shield Battleship: T1 Faction (Machariel, Raven Navy, Tempest Fleet, Scorpion Navy, etc) or Shield Marauder (Vargur or Golem are better for this), all with MicroJumpDrive, mobile depot and propulsion module in inventory.

Blitz:

A Tech 3 Strategic Cruiser with perma-tank (Deadspace resists) is the ship of choice due to many missions requiring hacking of relic containers. Tech 3 Cruiser's innate PVE ability to fit a very good tank, along with the Emergent Locus Analyzer subsystem's boost to Hacking/Relic skills, makes it possible to hack all relic objectives without needing to remove NPC's off the field, thus making mission times much shorter.

Standard fit should be DPS+tank. Refit for the Hacking/Relic bonus subsystem for the selected missions.

Important Note:

* Your standing is only checked by the starter agent. After starting the epic arc, subsequent agents will not check standings.

* This means while running the epic arc, you can continue doing missions even if your standing drops below +5.00 yet remains above -2.00 Faction standing.

Final Rewards:

* Choice of path - Retraction = 10x RSS Core Scanner Probe (Base Sensor Strength 45 points) and Minmatar Republic Faction Standing increase = +5% Base (+6.25% with Social 5)

* Choice of path - Revelation = 25 Million ISK and Minmatar Republic Faction Standing increase = +10% Base (+12.5% with Social 5)

Warning

A large amount of NPC Remote Repair happens in this mission. If you can't put enough DPS onto an Elite Frigate to instapop it, it will instantly repair all damage so focus on the easier-to-kill ships first, like the Cruisers. After the other NPC's are destroyed, nothing can remote repair the Elite Frigates which can then be easily destroyed with Combat Drones
