Ok so i finally started to pvp and i noticed that you gain 1 fame point for every victory ijust have a few questions about this..

1, How do i gain rank points?

2, Do i recive any rewards or anything at all for a certain amount of fame?

3, How do i check other peoples Fame/Rank?

Tnx!

As far as I understand it you gain rank through fame, it takes 25 to get your first rank, 50 for second, 75 for third and then it increases from there, you can't really check other peoples rank from what i've seen short of seeing a screenshot with thier hero menu open and as for rewards I believe you unlock pvp equipment and theres a list somewhere that says you get emotes too at levels 3 6 and 9 or something

are these for pvp only chars or do the count in pve chars also?

no rewards other than to be able to say you are Rank 3 or whatever when LFG
I dont know of a way to check what others fame is, but that doesnt mean there isnt a way.

Kind of ironic how earning fame points can't make you famous since only you will know how many you've got lol...

I am not sure I fully understand this. You said this is for both pve and pvp characters. Well I was in the Yak's Arena the other day and won three in a row then lost. No fame gained. Could you guys explain in a little more detail how fame is earned? Thank you.

Edit: Also is fame an account based thing or a character based thing?

Ketendra · Jun 15, 2005, 03:00 PM // 15:00

Fame is account based, so if one char gets fame, they all do, and you only get fame in the Tomb as far as I could tell.

IndyCC · Jun 17, 2005, 05:17 PM // 17:17

Anyone know a definete on my above question? Not the edit as that was addressed.

Lazek Phoenix · Jun 17, 2005, 05:23 PM // 17:23

ok you only gain fame from the tombs. rank 1 = 25 fame rank 2= 75 fame rank 3= 180 fame rank 4 = 360 fame and it keeps going on.

Yes you do get something for rank have you ever seen the deer emote, that is rank 3. Rank 3 is th deer emote rank 6 is the wolf emote rank 9 is the tiger emote and rank 9 is the highest emote at this point in the game. (rank 6 is like 1000 fame I think and rank 9 is like 4000 fame)

it would be so much better if others could see it. Are we sure there is no way to see others fame?
