EVE Online : Loyalty Points and NPC Factions

MMORPG.com EVE Online Correspondent Sam Guss writes this article giving players a bit of an overview of Loyalty Points in EVE Online, with a focus on some of the NPC factions you might run into. It's very easy in the game of Eve Online to find an agent, talk to them, get a mission, do the mission and get a reward. This reward in the beginning is usually ISK and sometimes loot in the form of an implant, a ship module, a blueprint or even a ship. As you move along in Eve Online though, these rewards turn more into ISK, LP (Loyalty Points) and Faction Standing. Players of Eve Online will recognize LP's for faction ships, faction modules and implants. These are after all some of the most sought after items. For a new player, the most common thing to happen if you are in a good corporation is to run higher level missions with more experienced players. This results in more ISK, an introduction into LP and of course standings - both for a particular faction, as well as individual NPC corporations. This does have one drawback however and that is it only exposes you (usually) to one or two NPC corporations, usually the major ones for a particular faction.
