Rank vs Casual Mode

CASUAL MODE

Play for the experience or to earn currency to particiapate in rank mode. 

RANK MODE

Require some type of currency in order to play in it (this could be earned through casual mode or bought in shop with cash) 

For example 

Store - $10 for 5,000 Auric cores 

Casual Mode - depending on how well you did you earn 150 Auric cores 

Rank Mode - Requires you to have 300 Auric cores

You can also earn Auric cores by doing well in your rank match. 

Safety pip - 0 

1pip - 200 Auric cores

2pips - 500 Auric cores 

RANK GAME PLAY & VISUAL

Harder skill check as you go up in rank 

Darker maps

Swf can not use the same perk loadout. 

RANK BENEFITS 

You will earn your reward at the end of the season 

(Based off your rank)

Cosmetics 

Blood points 

* season is every 2-3months (this give the devs more time to create the cosmetics for rank Mode)

    There is not a pay to play since you can earn through Casual Mode. It is similar to the same format just like any other online game. 

    And even if this was going to be a thing, I doubt the devs would use it where you can buy Auric cores because they already said they don’t want people who have money to spend to have an advantage over other players.

    No way am I going to be having to farm in order to play rank... the list that you made after you stated "you'll need auric cells in order to rank up" is plenty enough to separate casual from rank mode... make it to where in rank mode you earn more BP and more iridescent shards and have a seasonal reward for climbing up in the ranks.. that's reason to play rank... casual you earn you earn less of everything
