Mercenary Rank

The Basics
The Mercenary Rank system is working the same way like the Nations Rank system. With higher Ranks you are able to buy more items with Imperial Standing Points at an Imperial Gate Guard and the Sanction status lasts longer. Instead of spending Crystals at Conquest Overseers and doing missions after getting enough Allegiance reputation (the red bar at your profile) you have to fullfill successfull Assaults for your Mercenary reputation.

The Details
You automatically become a Mercenary, when you begin Aht Urhgan Mission 3: President Salaheem. You start with the Rank Private Second Class (PSC) and a PSC Wildcat Badge.

For evry next higher Mercenary Rank you have to accumulate 25 "winning" points in Assault-Missions:
 * Evry new won mission count as 5 points regardless of your Mercenary Rank
 * Repeatable won missions count as 1 point
 * Higher Mercenary Ranks do not need to do higher Rank missions for 25 points.
 * There is no maintenance reset for your mission and point status
 * You can only accumulate 25 points, all further won mission points are lost and don't count for your next Mercenary Rank

Hint:
 * Don't waste easy winning missions. For excample, a character with PSC Rank and many accumulated points by only doing Excavation Duty shouldn't do 3 new missions, when he is close to 25. You can do them with PFC Rank and they count all as 5 points. You should remember or write down already won missions.
 * Speak with Abquhbah I-10 Aht Urhgan Whitegate, when you arn't sure how much points you got, and choose the topic Mercenary Assessment (for further details see Abquhbah).

After you have won enough Assaults, speak with Naja Salaheem for a Promotion Quest. Fullfill Naja's task and you will be granted with a higher rank and a new key item: "Rank" Wildcat badge. Once again you have to gain Assault Mission points for the next rank.
