I tried to find information regarding how missions affect rank. The sites I found implied some kind of RNG, and said that bigger donations affected rank more. I'm starting to question all of this. Here are my results from earlier today;
125,000 CR donation – 1% rank increase
200,000 CR donation – 1% rank increase
200,000 CR donation – 1% rank increase
750,000 CR donation – 1% rank increase
1,000,000 CR donation – 1% rank increase
1,000,000 CR donation – 1% rank increase
cargo mission (2 pips rep reward) – 2% increase
cargo mission (2 pips rep reward) – 2% increase
cargo mission (2 pips rep reward) – 2% increase
cargo mission (2 pips rep reward) – 2% increase
cargo mission (2 pips rep reward) – 2% increase
cargo mission (2 pips rep reward) – 2% increase
cargo mission (2 pips rep reward) – 2% increase
cargo mission (2 pips rep reward) – 2% increase
combat mission (4 pips rep reward) – 3% increase
combat mission (5 pips rep reward) – 3% increase
combat mission (5 pips rep reward) – 3% increase
combat mission (1 pip rep reward) – 1% increase
This hardly seems RNG, nor do bigger donations seem to make any difference. Am I just finding old info on the net?
