Raising Rep with Teladi Finance Ministry ?

[LordFlinx]

I lost a few points shooting criminal elements near stations ( the security intervened for no apparent reason and got shot down as well) and now can find no way to repair the damage ?

Current standing is -7
(+18 with Teladi Traders)

I even searched the Ministry Stations for data leaks in order to gain rep through EVA repair work, and found that they keep a clean shop. And not a single mission to be found, everything ist work for the trade council...

Tips anybody ?

I got to +12 with them over the course of a couple seta nights. I haven't found any way to do it faster than to trade with them a whole lot.
As a side note, getting rank 10 with them doesn't seem to grant you any new rank perks, as I still can't buy military ships from them.

Trading with what ?
Stuff for the shipjard ?

All Stations near me are Traders, not Ministry.
Thx for the Tip though, will work on expanding

I too have difficulty with Ministry of Finance and Rep.

I think the rep/perk bug is being fixed in the next patch?

[tSpecR]

Yeah maybe a bug. They seem to dislike me a bit even though Ive sold them quite a bit of stuff and I dont think Ive attacked any.

Good thing you are not at -10 yet, because then you won't even be able to trade with their (just three) stations, or buy ships

Best way to get it up, is to take a small and fast trading ship into Eighteen Billion, and set it to autotrade in the wares that is in high demand at the MIN wharf and shipyard. Set "Max sell distance" to 0, and max out the buy distance. So you are basically helping them to obtain what they want. Every completed trade with a MIN station will give you some rep points. This is why you want a small and fast trade ship.

This technique can be used with any faction that isn't already below -9 rep. If what they want is raw resources, use a small mining ship instead, and set the "Max distance to obtain" to as low as possible where you can still find the resource. Do this with as many small ships as you want.

To add on to what I explained above, you can also churn demand for wares at the target station. By buying what they sell there, they will request more of the wares that they need to produce what you bought. This is important when you have assigned them an autotrader, but no longer needs anything.

This one is an ugh for me too, have reached >+10 twice now, trying to do it on the Eighteen Billion stations didn't work for me at all,

Assign someone there anyway but the HQ for the MIN race in Profit Centre Alpha is the only station I can say gave me noticeable gains to reputation when trying to raise standing, I just threw 5x autotraders into the system to chip away at it when the opportunities arose.

All you ideally need is a few good missions to gain it but meh to the MIN.
