When you say rank up. I was trying to look into that. And on my info in game. It says I am 100% to my next rank with the feds, with neutral rep. From little info I could get with google. It says I should get a promotion mission or something. But I have not see anything like that.
This is probably me, that is not understanding what is meant to happen. Could someone please explain, how do I rank up feds / empire
Doing missions for Federation Factions increases your rep with that faction. As you get higher rankings with lots of minor factions (preferred is allied as it gives the most increase) it gives a bump to your Federation Rank. The same for Empire and Alliance. When your rep climbs with the Federation, it shows 100% although it may not actually be 100%. It may be 99.6% but rounding says 100. You need to keep doing missions to get the Naval Ascension mission to pop.
Once they do start to appear, you will see multiple missions in every station that you have allied status with a Federation Minor Faction. You don't have to take the first, or any mission that comes up. You can wait till you find a mission you like. So when they appear, you can ignore the kill missions or smuggle missions if you don't want them, and wait till you see a simple delivery mission.
Until you take and complete an ascension mission, they will still appear. Do not make the assumption that taking more than one will make you skip levels. Even after you accept a mission, they will keep appearing until you hand in a completed mission. And even then, after you hand in a completed mission, the mission boards may still show Ascension missions. They don't update as quick as people think.
Once you complete the mission, you will see that your rank has changed, and the next time you load a stations menu, the ascension missions will be gone till the next time you make 100%. But if you wait to take a mission for a bit waiting for a simple one, and keep doing missions for minor factions, when you do Rank up, it may show that you have 2% or 4% already towards your next rank.
Hope that helps.
