Ever wonder what about this rank stuff??

[Aslan]

Well heres what I fond out

Faction Rank
From SWG Wiki

Ranks a player can acheive in the Imperial and Rebel factions. Joining either faction as a Private requires 200 faction points. Training subsequent ranks cannot drop your total faction points below 200; thus, to train Master Sergeant, your character must have 2700 faction points so that 200 FP will be left over after training.


Rank Title FP Required FP Cap at this Rank
Private 200 1000
Lance Corporal 400 6000
Corporal 800 12000
Staff Corporal 1200 18000
Sergeant 1600 24000
Staff Sergeant 2000 30000
Master Sergeant 2500 37500
Warrant Officer II 3000 45000
Warrant Officer I 3500 52500
Second Lieutenant 4000 60000
Lieutenant 5000 75000
Captain 5000 75000
Major 5500 82500
Lieutenant Colonel 5500 82500
Colonel 6000 90000



this rank will allow you build more niffty stuff the bigger your FP cap..... 8)

Ya mean I gotta gain ranks as a rebel to gain more things to build?    EESH! As if i could keep up to what I can build NOW!!!    ;D

[M1A2Tanker]

lol, poor Snoop. 

And it probably wouldn't hurt to mention that in order to gain these Faction points (which are required for anything you want that looks cool as a Rebel or Imperial), you have to do Rebel or Imperial missions.  No amount of credits is going to get you them.

Which is a shame since some of us have more credits than Faction Points lol.

[Snoopy]

Was that a dig in MY direction????  :o lol.  I'll have ya know you'd be SURPRISED what a sufficient amount of credits can BUY in that game....   Seriously though, it's not easy gaining BOTH at the same time.  :'( :'( :'( :'( :'(

[M1A2Tanker]

No kidding.  Much easier to gain the credits vs the FP.

agreed

[Snoopy]

HEYYYY!!!  I got a promotion finally.....but I DON'T see any INCREASES in items I can build!!!  What a rip!!  Bet I gotta become a Major or some such rank 1st.....*nawwww, can't see myself at the same rank as Hotlips or Frank Burns........I'm more of a Radar O'Reily type anyway*  **UhOh!! Copters!!!!!    Wait for it.....  **  Yeah, that's me..... ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
