how can i increase my Standing with a Syndicate ?

[Dog_Theft]

i decided to join the Steel Meridian and equipped their Sigils on my back but i don't know what to do next to increase my standing with them. Help

Now every point of experience you get will count towards their standing. Additionally after you reach first rank for them you will unlock syndicate missions you can do for them.

Just keep doing missions with the sigil equipped, and you'll earn standing for them until you hit your standing cap for that rank. When you rank up, you should pick new sigils as rewards because they'll give you more bonus standing than the previous rank.

You have to manually rank up at a relay or the syndicate console in your orbiter and make a sacrifice of some sort, which you can preview any time by trying to rank up, even before hitting your standing cap

Syndicate missions are unlocked at rank 1 and will show up under one of the top-right buttons on the map screen, and will give you a set amount of standing (up to 3,000 at rank 5), on top of the normal amount from your sigil

Syndicate missions also have up to eight small sculptures you can find hidden around the map, which can be traded for standing. Most missions have 8, but some will have fewer, like Defense. They'll also show up as dots on your minimap if you run mods like Animal Instinct

Protip: If you are allied with Steel Meridian, you can also ally with Arbiters of Hexis and Cephalon Suda. Gaining reputation with those two will not reduce your standing with Steel Meridian.

Even though Steel Meridian gives you some standing with Red Veil, initiating into Red Veil is a trap. Red Veil works better when in a trio with New Loka and Perrin Sequence.

Also note that you can only gain so much standing per day with your syndicates from wearing the sigil. The daily cap depends on your mastery rank. How much cap you have left for the day can be checked on the syndicate console in your orbiter (to the left of the main mission console).
The amounts you get from running syndicate missions does not count against the daily cap; it is like a bonus amount per mission. So once you unlock them, the three syndicate missions per day is a good way to boost your standing faster.

It is totaly viable to max all 4 if you only level via steel and suda and keep a buffer in veil rep. I would advise to max steel and veil first before you level the other two (use suda since it only drains 50% of the gained rep from veil). Its a bit slower than going only for 3 as vulf suggested, but you will get access to wares from 4 syndicates (if you want the untradeable wares).

To op: be sure to grab the advanced sigil after each rank up and equip it, that will make you gain rep much faster.
