I swear my mind went into a complete spin. To be honest, I didn't understand anything. Because I saw the entire galaxy map divided into 12 separate zones.

and I couldn't understand how this mechanic worked. When my Influence bar didn't even move after the initial missions, So I felt very sad and frustrated. 

To be honest, I felt like I was wasting my hard work in the wrong place and all the cool weapon mods and black market upgrades were slipping away from me.

It's absolutely true, I'm not one to give up. So I thought about it a lot and did some thinking, observing the galaxian rings (Core, Mid, Outer). 

And I discovered a secret strategy for Den Upgrades that made my Influence bar go up like a rocket. And one more thing.

when I unlocked the game-changing Tier 3 reward for the first time. Then at that time, I cannot describe the happiness and relief I got. 

So today let me tell you my entire experience and the formula to master influence, this is my secret influence farmula.

The Mechanics: Understanding The Influence Tiers


To be honest, in the beginning when I was spreading little influence everywhere, then I faced a big setback.

To be honest, then I understood that there are total 3 Tiers in each zone and the exact formula to unlock them is:

Tier 1 Reward: 20 Influence

Tier 2 Reward: 30 Influence

Tier 3 Reward: 50 Influence

At first I thought that influence might be lost, to be honest, but when I realized that once gained, influence never ends, I felt very at peace. 

I felt that targeting Tier 3 to unlock Black Market gear and weapon mods was the smartest decision.

The Strategy: How I Solved The Influence Grind


I have seen that, although Operations does provide influence, that influence is very little and often it is not known what reward will be received.

Then I thought about it a lot and then, fed up with this gamble, So I came up with three very amazing ways:

Contacts Is The Real Magic: It is absolutely true that contacts are a rare and finite resource, but I have experienced that it is the most OP thing. 

You know what, The great thing is that, by using one contact you get 7 direct influences and you can use it on any zone of your choice.

The Den Upgrade Secret: I first upgraded the Networking node in the Facilities tab. To be honest, I noticed that when you fully upgrade it.

So, for every completed mission, you get an extra 5 pieces of Intel. Honestly, this one decision changed my entire gaming journey.

Specific Zone Targeting: To be honest, if you want reward for Zone Let or any specific area, then just run the operations and contacts happening in that zone. One more thing, there is no benefit in wasting energy in useless places.


My Pro Tip: My advice to you is that you should not take any worry at all, you just upgrade your networking, spend your contacts carefully and rule the entire galaxy. If you face any problem then please ask by comments.
