Rank & Renown

Earning Rank Points

• Win an attack, raid or sack — the attacker gains the full combat-score delta as Renown.
• Successfully defend — the defender gains half the combat-score delta when the attacker fails.
• Combat score scales with the power of troops killed on both sides, so raiding stronger opponents earns more Renown than farming weaklings.
• Scouting, scavenging and bandit hunts do not award Rank Points — they feed the PvE and trading leaderboards instead.

The Rank Ladder

Where Rank Shows Up

• Your keep header and profile display your current rank title and Renown total.
• The Combat leaderboard (weekly and lifetime) is sorted by Rank Points.
• Other players see your rank on the World map, in chat, and in the Realm Roster.

Losing Renown

Rank Points now swing both ways. Combat is zero-sum: the winner gains what the loser forfeits. The swing scales with the rank gap between the two commanders:

• Upset win — beating a higher-ranked player pays out extra RP, and they lose that same amount.
• Bully loss — losing to a lower-ranked player costs you more RP, and they gain that same amount.
• Expected result — a higher-ranked commander beating a weaker foe earns only a small trickle, and the underdog loses only a little.

Swings are clamped so a single battle can't erase or double your renown, and your RP will never drop below zero.
