When I made the final jump to Sol and arrived in the system I heard the glorious little chime of the PlayStation trophy sound, I had unlocked the “Home, Sweet Home” trophy. I logged back in to the game and again plotted my route to Sol, hurrah! it was available and I was only 5 jumps away. I panicked, for about a second and realised that if I just exit to the menu then log back in it will be fixed. I quickly launched the galaxy map to plot my route to Sol, route plotting was unavailable though, it said I still needed a permit. I managed to successfully complete the mission without much hassle and the message appeared in my comms panel that I had been promoted to Petty Officer. When my fourth Federal Navy mission appeared, I knew it was not long until I had my Sol Permit. I usually turned on silent running mode when flying in to dock a t a station, it makes the ol ship overheat a bit though. I think two of them where covert transport missions where I had to transport some illicit goods to a system without being spotted. The Federal Navy missions are similar to other types of trade missions, I believe you can get combat missions but thankfully I got trade ones. Upon successfully completing a Federal Navy mission you rank with the Federation then increases. The federal navy missions are the missions that seem to pop up once your current Federation rank is it 100% and you have a sufficient reputation with the minor faction handing them out. It was after my first couple of Federal Navy missions that I knew that the grind to Petty Officer was not going to take an exorbitant amount of time. Then upon delivering the data to the various star systems nearby, I was lucky enough to pick up even more data missions, usually a lot going back to the same system and same station so I could stack 4, 5 or 6 at a time and complete them all in one go.ĭuring the course of these missions I noticed my Federation rank climbing, slowly but surely. It took me just over a week of grinding Federation rank to get to Petty Officer, the grind was made a bit easier thanks to the Niu Hsing system, there was a boom there and they giving out data delivery missions like there was no tomorrow. Federal Navy promotion missions usually include the phrases "Federal Navy" in the mission title, for example "Federal Navy Acquisition Contract" or "Federal Navy Covert Transportation Mission".It was a long, hard slog but it was worth it, I got to visit Sol, our solar system and see Earth in all it’s majesty. Note that rank progress continues to increase and count toward higher ranks even if the 100% mark for rank has been reached no reputation gains are lost while waiting for a promotion mission to appear. Completing a promotion mission will increase rank by one level. Once a pilot reaches 100% rank progress, Federation-aligned minor factions with whom the pilot has a "cordial" or higher standing will begin to offer promotion missions for the Federal Navy. Source-and-return missions for Federation-aligned factions at repairing stations - While slower than passenger missions at damaged stations, the commodities requested by these missions are common, and the risk is still fairly low.įinding a system that best offers these opportunities can be difficult due to faction states changing constantly and a need for the minor factions to be aligned to the relevant superpower.Passenger missions for Federation-aligned factions at damaged stations - Missions are plentiful, fast, low-risk, and earn decent rank progress, but Thargoid attacks on stations occur inconsistently.Data courier missions - Low-paying, but low-risk.Charity missions - Requires large credit donations, but very little effort.Cargo delivery missions - Offers high reputation gain and moderate pay, but carries the risk of frequent pirate interdictions.Common tactics for fast rank progress are: There are several types of missions that reward reputation, which improves rank. Progress toward the next rank is tracked in the right HUD panel, in the Reputation section of the Status tab. As pilots rise through the ranks, they are rewarded with access to exclusive Federal ships, missions, and restricted system permits.įor players to be promoted through the Federation's ranks, they must complete missions or other favourable activities with minor factions aligned with the Federation. There are 14 ranks in the Federal Navy Auxiliary, which can be joined by any independent pilot.
