Fast Ranking
- Thread starter Samosa
- Start date
I've done unranked to Sol permit in one day via HIP 8396 long range hauling missions.
I'm feeling the same way as GENETiX,
now that the Charity missions in the systems "TUN" and "EXBEUR" no longer appear, perhaps because there are no longer bankrupt federal fractions, the two systems no longer distinguish from other common systems.
My question is: Where and especially how do Federation players increase their rank now? With the coming constraints on the missions in 1.5 we have not much time to do so...

From a station without bulletin board?
It's an outpost and has one. At least it had when I was there few days back. Stepping Stone Base.
It seems that was only the case during the mining CG as Stepping Stone normally has no BB afaik
They were all nerfed. They still turn up but no where near as frequently.

Note that for the Imperial rank progression, I've stocked up on the more expensive charity missions (Performance Enhancers, Progenitor Cells, Non-lethal Weapons, and Reactive Armour), which often asks for them in hefty quantities. Not sure if these missions give more XP than the cheaper food missions or not.

* Cargo was restocked close to Ascension Mission and the remainder was used towards the next rank progression.
I have recently taken up the task of donation grinding to get the rank of Baron with the Empire. I was using this template as a reference as to how many mission I would be doing so that I could keep track and have an idea how close I was to my next goal. Having said that, I found that from Serf to Master to Squire much less than stated above. Also, I have only taken cash or food donation missions. There were no other missions taken other than the Naval Ascension missions.
My Missions so far:
Serf to Master
25 Missions
Master to Squire
29 Missions
**I will be posting the rest, up to Baron, as I progress.
*Squire to Knight
45 Missions
*Knight to Lord
65 Missions
*Lord to Baron
96 Missions

I am currently working at LYULKA BEACON, in the Liabeze system, a large station with 4 Empire factions, and one independent faction who you should ignore.
I use a 'Conda and took 400 tons of assorted food there as they give quite a few cash donation missions and food ones.
In about 2 hours I did about 100 donation missions which was enough to tip me over from Earl to Marquis but I had previously been at Tamar in Gould Port and it took a number of hours to do 40 charity missions.
I spent another 30-45 minutes after marquis at Lyulka Beacon and now have another 35 missions completed, so I think it is a better bet than the Tamar system. There is an agricultural large station at a system 13.3 LY away called Parkinson Orbital. The system is called LTT 874 where you can get your foodydtuffs.
Hope this helps you.

I think you may need to edit your costing there as Lord to Baron looks like you are saying 813 million credits I think you may mean 813K credits. Actually I see you didn't make the error it was Aeternitas in the post you were quoting.

Sorry, I only now stumbled over this. So if you want to have fast rank progression in Empire you do the following?
1. Accept any and all Charity missions for any '[System Name] Empire/Imperial Pact' faction
2. Donate money (thus accomplishing the mission)
3. Repeat
4. Get Rank progression mission
5. Accomplish 4.
6. Repeat from 1.
To clarify: You do not pick up missions with the Imperial Navy but with local Imperial patronage factions, right?
Thanks in advance!

Yes, remembering to quit to the menu and switch to Solo/Group/Open to refresh the bulletin board.
