Alignment Tip Mission badges

[Voltor]

Okay, for the price of ONE merit you can purchase alignment missions from the mission computer in your base.

 

I have found that the best method for these badges is to identify a Tip Mission that is both a favorite and a FAST one to crush.

 

So, I am in Talos, I enter my base and use the Mission PC to get my mission and return to Talos.

 

I set the mission, quickly reach the mission and smash it in about a minute or two.  Once it is complete you get the badge meter tick so then LFG from the mission to Citadel which puts you at the base portal. 

 

Enter your base, get the same mission again and repeat until all three badges are done.

 

Without interruptions or delays I can finish an alt in 45 minutes to an hour with this.

 

As to which one is my favorite to use, mileage varies, and they want us to play the alignment missions so play them and find your favorite.

Yeah......  I actually just do random tip missions for the badges.  Why would you...  oh   "25 alts with all the badges!"  That's why you need to be efficient about it.  🙂

The morality missions also count towards the 25 for the new badge.

I thought that the Alignment missions were the morality missions, or did I miss something?

There's a distinction between the two - at least in my head, if nowhere else. 
The alignment tip missions are where you're choosing which alignment you're heading towards. Hero, Vig, Rogue, Vill. 
The Morality is where you make the choice to trigger the change from one to the other. 

The game refers to the tip missions - in your contact/tip tab - as alignment missions. It refers to the Morality Mission, awarded after you complete 10 alignment missions from the rng, or your SG computer as a Morality mission. 

Although in our lazy American way of talking, the two can easily be used interchangeably and most will know what you mean, the distinction is in the game. Morality is the last one that awards 40 reward merits. Alignment missions are the ones you complete to get to the morality. 

For whatever reason, whether bug or WAI, the Morality counts as one of the 25 missions for the badge.

I was cranking out morality/alignment missions today for the new badge and made special effort to take note if badge progress was made upon completion of the morality mission.  It did NOT, on several characters I monitored.  So the morality does not count as one of the 25 missions for the badge.

I've been multi-boxing to get it on pretty much all of my alts. Not so they have all the badges, but because I want that Mark & Recall accolade power. It will teleport escort NPCs with you to the door, which is worth its weight in gold.

Thanks for the clarification. I hadn't noticed.
