View source for Assault Rank

Assault Rank, also known as Mercenary Rank is the Treasures of Aht Urhgan version of Nations Ranking for mission accomplishments. Gaining Ranks in assault offers several benefits including larger selection of items from Gate Guards using [[Imperial Standing|Imperial Standing Points]] and longer [[Sanction]] effect. The following section details the different Ranks available and the quests necessary to gain them.

== Moving Up In Rank ==
All players initially enlist as [[Private Second Class]]. After participating in assault missions and accumulating at least 25 rank-up points, either [[Abquhbah]] or [[Naja Salaheem]] will initiate a quest which will allow a player to attain a new rank. Rank-up points can be checked by talking to Abquhbah and clicking the [[Mercenary Assessments]] option.

After ranking up, any excess rank-up points beyond 25 are lost, and the player must accumulate another 25 rank-up points to gain another promotion.

==Ranking up to Captain==

Unlike the other ranks, the [[Promotion: Captain|Captain Promotion]] does not rely upon rank-up points.  Instead, this quest is offered once a mercenary has successfully completed all 50 main assaults.
*There are also reports of a mission requirement to rank up.  At least Aht Urhgan mission 35, and possibly as high as 48 (fully finished) is required to rank up.{{Verification}}

Having the [[Captain]] rank confers certain benefits:
*[[Rytaal]] will reserve an additional [[Imperial Army I.D. Tag]], up to 4.
*[[Runic Portal]] permits cost 0 IS.
*Access to [[Alzadaal Undersea Ruins]] no longer costs a 1 [[Imperial Silver Piece]] fee.
