Nice to see the list. Can someone add the points required to reach each rank as well as the max points one can hold at each rank?

Yes, it would be nice to see (or even better, let others see) what rank you have obtained. I mean, what is the point of having a "rank" if other faction members can't see what your rank is?

i am staff sergeant for rebels and it took 1800 over base, and i noticed that every time the increase to get a higher rank was 200 more than the last rank promotion cost, so if that pattern dosnt change it would take 5000 over base to get surface marshall, plus all the costs of every rank all the way up

Hi,


well the Recruiter calls you with your rank, is that nothing?


And you need a rank to be able to collect more FP, since each rank involves a cap on the FP you can collect. Since higher level items cost much more FP, you need a higher rank to get those items.

According to game guides and other web sources we are supposed to see ranks when declared. However, I think the DEV's have just not added it yet do too other things getting fixed maybe.

yes i posted in the general SWG forum and the GCW forum but i'll post it again here.


I keep reading about how Factions are stupid, the people are stupid, how there is no organization just groups of people not knowing what to do.


How is one supposed to organize a faction if players cant see the other's rank? When your out in the field you want to see your CO so you know who to follow and who to listen to. I may not have been military material but i know how it should work. Anyone who was in the military should back me up on this one.


Shure people know there own rank thats good it helps with the Hierarchy structure of an army, but how can they see someone elses? Thery could put it in the Bio sheet that people get when they examine another player or there could be a rank icon over thefaction icon when the character is overtand a rank option next to the names of the covert ones. Its not good to yell out "who's in charge?" "or "isnt so and so our Commander?" because the enemy will be shooting you while your looking for the leader.


ok Flame on or Follow it doesnt matter, but if you want to see a faction system that works help me out.

P.S. Be extra nice helpfull to members of your same factio, because someday they just might be saving your ass.

And the whole thing about Rank being only to gain faction points to aquire better toys is just lame. It defeats the REAL puropse of rank.
