Chart of Abyss Ranks

[Eternal Calamity]

Awsome post I have wanted to see the ranks

[Cooper]

to be the chosen commander of either faction on server 1/A is to acquire an ego of legendary proportion.

[Key]

I'm sure there will plenty of egos looking for that #1 spot.

[XodoK]

As long as I can make it to some decent Abyss abilities I am ok with not being #1 =)

[Shortbus]

Correct me if I am wrong...but killing PVE in the Abyss also rewards AP...so you don't really have to pvp to be considered a good pvp'er....essentially you have to be a farmer...flawed mechanics FTW!

[LordMillenia]

Personally I like this system although I can see some obvious flaws this sounds like fun and hopefully will be improved. This will definitely force me to play my ace game all the time.(Which I do anyway )

As to that, K : D ratio comes into play so I don't think that will necessarily be the case.

And who doesn't like to farm PvEers pretending to be PvPers?

this isnt a PvP game, its a PvPvE game. You have to defend yourself, and incorporate both to succeed.

[Naim]

Anyone else think it should be 1-9 then 1-5 instead of 9-1 1-5

I absolutely love these ranking. If you are a good enough player, it shouldn't be too hard to get into the r10 - r11 rankings. Beyond that would be tough but wow this is a truly good ranking system.

I'll be happy anywhere in the 13-16 spots. I know anyone who puts the effort and has at least a decent ammount of skill can do that much.

#2 and 3 are Commanders, assuming they have the points to be (otherwise they're probably just keeping other players from being commanders, oooh that's bad better kill those asshats). Now you have 997 spots available.

It continues on like that. So here's the maximum of each ranking. This is the max, not what it will always be:

1 CnC (Takes rank 1)
2 Commanders (Take rank 2 and 3)
7 Warlords (Take rank 4 through 10)
21 Generals (Take rank 11 through 30)
69 Lt. Generals (Take rank 31 through 100)
199 M. Generals (Take rank 101 through 300)
199 B. General (Take rank 301 through 500)
299 Colonels (Take rank 501 through 800)
199 Lt. Colonels (Take rank 801 through 1000)

It's almost like a real goddamn army!

I also hear the higher you get in the officer rankings, the more people will litteraly search for you as if you had a bounty slapped onto your forheard. Now that is pretty sweet.

Going to be fun seeing how the Abyss situation goes at end-game, espically when 145 on each side can turn into guardians.

[Flintix]

A Question about the positions, is the Kill /Death Ratio Lifetime or will it be reseted from time to time ?

The problem is when the game is new. Those hardcore farmers can achieve the rank needed to reach the top before everyone else, and thus give themselves the means to stay at the top. That's what's basically happened in Korea.

to be the chosen commander of either faction on server 1/A is to acquire an ego of legendary proportion.

and have a life of existant miniscularity

I like the naming of the ranks, will there be any Arena-like thing in Aion ? 2v2, 3v3, 5v5 would be kinda cool!

Hope you have a flame-proof suit to wear.
