    How much will it set me back if my gambling luck doesn't improve?

    Is this the Hard level Field Trip mission?

    Win $100,000 on Roulette
    Win $100,000 on Blackjack
    Win $100,000 on Craps

    Reward:
    $20,000 received
    27 Mission credits received
    Agent standing increased

    This is the mission that increased my agent standing from 10 to 11.

    Bet $100k on red (or black) in Roulette until you win
    Win one hand of blackjack with a $100k bet
    Bet $25k on getting Seven at Craps until you win.

    Odds are you should break even unless you're spectacularly unlucky.

    Failing or declining a mission hardly sets you back at all in terms of agent standing (or it didn't for me at least), I wouldn't worry about it.

    If you complete your next mission after that you will make up for the failure and then some.

    My luck ended up improving right after I posted this, but thank you.

    I decline missions regularly my agent standing has not dropped at all,that being said it has not gone up recently either
    If the mission gives crap credits for a lot of e spent I will refuse it garunteed I don't care if my agent standing drops or if I'm missing out on credits their is absolutely nothing worth spending them on anyways (who knows how long before their is months/yrs most likely)and the cost in time,effort and e is definitely not worth it imo
    I would not worry to much about losing agent standing losses are a lot less then gains at this point

    Well, that's one view on it.

    I personally have spent, and will continue spending, a lot of energy doing missions. I'm 99% sure getting this headstart in the missions system will pay out sometime later.

    Either when special items are implemented, and I have a shitload of credits to buy with - or new related honors/medals being implemented, instantaneously awarding me with several merits.

    That's just my take on it, anyways...

    Exactly how I approach it, no matter how much energy it "wastes". At worst, I get a good amount of experience towards leveling up (not counting the odd hospitalization missions). Best case is I'm miles ahead of where I would be in regards to merits, future agent unlocks, attachment rewards if I had stopped after the honor bar.
