 +=====Overview=====
 Running missions in high sec is dangerous, even more so if you're in a busy system. If you intend to run missions on a character in TEST, take advantage of the agents in NPC space. This guide will emphasize doing this, but the principles are essentially the same if you choose to stay in highsec like a terrible person. At times this guide will also emphasize only working for Security agents. Distribution and Mining agents may also be valid options, depending on the corporation for which you choose to run missions. Running missions in high sec is dangerous, even more so if you're in a busy system.

Don't worry about it at the beginning, but you ought to have it trained by L4s at the latest, if not by L3s.   * Security Connections at least to 4.

 Find a friend who is already running level 4 missions and ask if he will share the reward with you. You have to be in the system with the mission runner and be in fleet with them. As the complete missions and "​share"​ the reward, you will gain LP and Standings with that corporation. Continue doing this til you have 5.0 standings with the corporation and now you can get L4 missions by yourself. Remember they are doing you a favor and lossing LP while doing it. Paying them back for the LP loss is the only bro thing to do.  Find a friend who is already running level 4 missions and ask if he will share the reward with you.

 Burner missions are a new type of level 4 security mission that were first introduced in the Hyperion expansion in frigate only form. The Mosaic expansion in April of 2015 introduced the cruiser version of these missions. Let me just say this, **if your trying to earn LP and focus on that decline <color indigo>​every single burner mission</​color>​**. Yes they reward you with really nice LP if you win, but normally you'll have to travel several systems to complete them and trust me when I say these missions ARE NO JOKE!!! You will get blown up lots, only serious people with money to spare attempt!!! Burner missions are a new type of level 4 security mission that were first introduced in the Hyperion expansion in frigate only form.
