Rank

Rank is gained through fame and describes the success in the Tomb of the Primeval Kings tournament. When a certain amount of fame points is attained a new rank is attained. The amount of fame points needed for each rank is listed in the following table. When rank 3 and above is reached a new emote is unlocked every 3 ranks which reflects the current rank. This makes it possible to show other players the rank.

The emotes are shown using the commands /fame and /rank.

Note: Rank can not be gained through faction.

Rank based emotes and titles


Note: The new rank 12 emote was added in the 2005/11/17 update. ''Another note: There are no sightings of the new rank 12 emote backed with concrete proof as of yet. There are no screenshots of it, no movies of it, nor any proof outside hearsay and rumors usually phrased among the lines of "my friend has seen another person showing him this emote". Essentially it's unlikely that anyone has seen the new emote, or even has emote in question, as any such sighting would likely cause people to take screenshots, which would spread all over the forums in a matter of hours. As such all information about new emote being "phoenix", "eagle" and countless other options is very likely to be hoax. Other rumors suggest that the emote may be a "lizard" or "dragon". None can be confirmed at this time.''

Rank descrimination
Some teams, while forming a group at the Tomb of the Primeval Kings, do not accept new members below a certain rank. This is known as "rank discrimination." It's mainly due the perception of some players that all players without a rank emote must be either newbies or otherwise not good enough to compete in the tournament. It follows that earning a rank emote will help you find a pick-up group at the Tombs.
