If you are contracted then, according to the post I quoted, you need to gain four more ranks.

The Goner Temple missions in Elysium of Light are Pretty easy and there's only like ten missions.
With one of the rewards being the True Light Seeker corvette which can mount virtually any gun in the game (which is wierd them being pacifistic)... unfortunately the shields on it are very poor, which is also wierd partcularly since they are pacifists and would rather tun from a fight......
You can find them in Elysium of Light next to Heretics end.

Other than the Terran missions which started when I entered a certain sector, I've seen no other missions like being described here. Where/how are these mission sets started? Where is a list of all these mission sets? Why does everyone else seem to know all about them? What am I missing?

there are 8 Corporation HQs in the X-verse...

go to any one of them, and take an official (the one marked with the HQ name) mission... that will start you on your way... note that some need a little thought... but all are ultimately do-able...

And some corporations seem to insist on not giving you work, for unknown reasons... Dukes Buccaneers is an example, then sometimes OTAS seems to hate me, and sometimes Strong Arms...

Did anyone figure out what are the requiremtns to start working for a corporation?

PTNI rewards:

5-Mineral Specialist -> Vulture Prototype
8-Nividium Specialist -> Kite Vanguard

Not sure about next one, but as far as i know its:

11-Hero of Profit -> Enchanced Kea

I guess that one's not overtuned so it'll only do 120m/s instead of the 160m/s for the Tormented Teladi start. Not a bad ship though.

Who knows? Maybe it is overtuned? Still i guess ill need to learn to script/mod/analize cat/dat files to learn what are the pre-req for corp to give you missions... since no one seems interested...

I've seen it said that most of the reward ships are overtuned to a random amount (but haven't completed any, so could be being misled!).

OTAS gives their M4 Solano, M3 (Venti?) and M6 as rewards, in that order.

I have just completed the 4th OTAS mission to protect the Ore Mine in Nopileos' Memorial, and my Contractor ranking increased by a mere 10 percent to 80 :cry:

This is unlike the race ranks which can increase by 50 percent to retrieve a ship.

I've been working on getting OTAS rep, but that will stop, since the grind is hard and I can just buy their ship since it's linked to argon rank.

You can't buy the two m3s. You get the Venti as a reward but you must find & force to bail the Notus Hauler. I found only 1 Notus Hauler so far and it was with a rather Argon task force (1 Heavy Centaur + some 30 Novas and the Notus) that was cruising through pirate sectors.
I'm still missing some OTAS ships that are supposed to exist, the Eurus (m4), Astraeus Hauler (m7), Sirokos (m7) and the Auster Hauler (m8). Anyone seen them around?

You get the Heavy Centaur Prototype as the prize at highest rank with Johnferco.
