Accord Contracts
Accord Contracts
Accord Contracts are repeatable missions offered to pilots in Good Standing (rep >= 100). Each epoch, the Accord generates three new contracts for every eligible pilot. Contracts reward credits and reputation for completing specific objectives within the epoch.
How It Works
- Generation: At each 12-hour reset, 3 contracts are generated for every Accord pilot (rep >= 100).
- Claim: Visit the Accord Contracts board to see your available contracts. Claim one to make it active.
- Complete: Fulfill the contract objective, then submit for completion. Credits and rep are awarded immediately.
- Expiry: Unclaimed contracts expire at the next epoch reset. Active contracts persist until completed or the cycle ends.
Contract Types
| Type | Objective | Reward |
|---|---|---|
| Patrol Route | Visit 3 specified nodes | 5,000 credits + 10 rep |
| Supply Run | Complete a trade at a target port | 8,000 credits + 15 rep |
| Intel Gathering | Scan 3 times | 6,000 credits + 12 rep |
| Port Defense | Park at a specified port for 5 minutes | 10,000 credits + 20 rep |
| Bounty Hunt | Score a PvP kill | 15,000 credits + 25 rep |
Patrol Route
You are given 3 nodes to visit. Fly or warp to each one after claiming the contract. The order does not matter. Once all 3 have been visited, submit for completion.
Supply Run
Deliver cargo to a specific port. The contract specifies the port node. Complete any sell trade at that port after claiming.
Intel Gathering
Scan 3 nodes after claiming the contract. Any scan action counts toward the goal.
Port Defense
Park your ship at the designated port node. The Accord tracks your time there each minute. After 5 cumulative minutes at the port, submit for completion. You do not need to stay continuously.
Bounty Hunt
Score a PvP kill on any player after claiming the contract. The kill must occur after the contract was claimed.
Strategy
Contracts stack well with normal gameplay. A patrol route along your trade run costs nothing extra. Intel gathering combines naturally with scouting. Port defense is a good opportunity to go AFK while your contract progresses.
Bounty Hunt contracts are the highest-reward but require finding and defeating an opponent. They pair well with the Bounty Board for double payoff.
Contracts are the Accord's answer to raiding: steady, repeatable income that rewards clean play and active movement through the galaxy, without the rep cost or bust risk of going rogue.
