Reputation

Reputation Quests are reoccurring OPS given by Agents of the five different factions. Currently, United Solar Systems of Hygara reputation quests cannot be performed because the nation is not yet available.

## Structure

### Agents

Each nation has four agent levels and each agent level is comprised of (3/3/6/?) agents. The agents each represent a different organization within the faction, but these organizations exist entirely for lore reasons and have no effect on reputation or reward. Each agent is located in a different system's station, and reputation quests must be initiated at the agent's station. Reputation quests can only be performed using the specified ship class located in the agent menu, with the exception of [Exploration] quests in which any ship can be used.

<<should we have a table of every rep agent and location?>>

### Reputation Rank

Your standing with the nation is divided into 5 Reputation Levels, each with 5 Reputation Milestones. Whenever you reach a Reputation Milestone by obtaining enough Reputation Points, you can sign an agreement that boosts your Merit Points and Reputation Points Rewards for that nation's reputation quests. Agreements will stack. Whenever you complete all milestones of a reputation level and accept all of its agreement, you can advance to the next reputation level and unlock the respective agent level. After you reach the next reputation level, your Reputation Points will reset to 0. Reputation levels starting from the first level are as follows:

## Quest Capacity and Reset Time

## Rewards

Quests give various XP, credits, equipment, and resource  rewards.

Completing quests gives Merit Points which can be exchanged in the Merit Store belonging to the desired faction. The faction's Merit Store can be found in the same place as the faction agents.

Completing 20 Reputation Quests from any faction in a week gives a massive reward of Merit Points and Reputation Points that you can apply to the faction of your choice. The reward given scales with your chosen nation's Agreement number <<need to confirm if based on this or something else>>.

## Reputation Missions

#### [Exploration]

These missions require you to find the planet or star with the specified parameters and then scan it . Easiest way to do this is to go to the Galaxy map and start looking at the planet details in each of the systems nearby. When you view the individual planets on the system map it will give you the planet details that you are looking for. You then must travel to that planet or star, open Ops overview, and push the collect data button which replaces your mission go button.

### [Photograph]

These missions require you to find a celestial body or structure and take a photo of it. When you find the required object, align your camera so the object is in view, press the hide ui button in the bottom right corner, press the camera button, then press upload on the pop up message.

### [Battle]

These missions require you to head to a location and interact with npcs, usually killing them. You may also have other objectives like defending a structure or destroying a structure depending on your mission.

### [Offering]

These missions require you to submit items to the agent. Be warned that higher level agents may require higher tech and rank items.
