Halfway down, bobdebouwer's post.

It takes lots and lots of energy Drone.

There are currently 2 popular ways that people auto rank.

1. By destroying Non Player Characters (NPC's) on the battle tab. You need to have 10 times your rank in energy. So if you are rank 200, you would need at least 2000 energy. In addition, you would need to get a 4 to 1 xp to energy return. This means you must have a strong enough attack vs the NPC's. If you can't get 4:1, then you will have to increase the energy side of the equation. Many folks I know are doing something more like 12 times rank in energy and 3.5:1 attack.

2. By completing high xp return missions. Basically, see which missions give the best reward. People I know who auto rank from missions are carrying at least 15 times their rank in energy; so a rank 200 would need 3000 energy.

It should be pointed out that there are at least 2 more ways you could potentially do it, but as of yet, no one has either met the energy requirement or stepped forward to claim they have done it.

3. By destroying other Player ships (PvP) on the battle tab. You get xp for this action. It has been reported that the lower your rank vs your enemy target ship, the higher the xp gain you receive. Thus, it is possible to auto rank by consistently destroying high ranking targets.

4. By adding energy to the Base. You will get an extremely low amount of xp return for this action and I personally imagine it would take forever. But, there are already people developing ships which could conceivably do this very thing.


Lastly, keep in mind that all of the above numbers can be adjusted depending on if you are using a Neural, an RSL, and if you are Human (+15% xp reward) or Ingeron (+10% energy).

Nice little summary there. Only place I can see you are wrong is in number three where you say no ones auto ranked off pvp. Easiest way to get really high actions once found. Can be done with about 13x rank in energy, but it varies alot so unless you have more then that I'd say add some npcing at the start of your level. Should give you a nice cushion. 1-3x rank in energy should be plenty. Numbers are from personal experience with an neural, no rsl and while a talth excavator.
Cant personally confirm its rank causing the difference in exp. Seems to be affected.by howe much you do and take though.

I didn't say no one has auto ranked off of pvp. I said no one has stepped forward and claimed they have done so; unless that is what you are doing right now.




Thanks for the correction though Sparky.

sorry over looked that i did. and yes thats what im saying.

^^ Awesome. Congrats!

Mind if I ask, were you targeting higher ranked ships, or did you just increase your energy so as to get anyone in your range and still rank up? There are screenshots floating around of massive damage and bonus xp if you bring down a high enough ship.

payed no attention to rank sorry. mostly lower i believe. tends to be what shows up on my bt. and yeah i wasnt all that picky i just got alot of engineers and then went at it. after a few levels though started cutting it too close. had to add some npc in to make sure to make the level.

This is one of the pics floating around. The lower rank was less than half that of the higher rank.



Notice that kill shot is more xp payout than any single NPC kill shot.

tx got it

im a rank 181... could i get away with auto ranking ... my energy is on 1347

No, nor do you want to autorank at that level (unless you have huge artifact production). Energy needs to be at least 11x your rank to kill enough NPCs and utilize their exp rewards to autorank

clearly alex needs to learn how to read and do a bit of math..
