This "tutorial" is meant to help players that already are in a big clan. Most preferably it is a clan that can constantly hold the 50% HON / 50% XP base booster as this speeds up the process and the rankpoints. For the entire process, I expect you to buy 50% HON and XP for as long as you can and refresh it all the time.
1) Create your account with a lower payment such as the Turkish, Russian or Brazilian one. There are lots of ways to do it, just search your way through and you certainly find something. Create the account on a Saturday night as you can buy the 50% XP boost immediately so you start into the game with 120% XP (Base booster, 50% XP booster, XP-B01, XP-B02). This way you can reach level 17 within a few hours. If you are lucky enough to hit the mission double booster, you can profit from another 100% mission reward, meaning you get another 100% XP onto your mission as well as all the other rewards.
2) You want to rush level 17. With level 17 you can access the Blacklight maps and get the missions for the laser. As mentioned before, if you have the mission booster, you can get 20 Prometheus laser on your first day of playing. You obviously need help from one or more stronger player but this is why you have a strong clan (You can also use your "main" account and boost your new account with it but don't make it too obvious if you are high rank already).
3) You should now have 20 Prometheus laser and almost nothing else. That is not from big interest as of right now. You can get your Flax drones or use some of the Uridium you have to buy Iris drones. You proceed to do missions until you are level 22 which is realistically possible within 24h from the creation. Most players are now doing Hades gates but because we have no Uridium yet, we unfortunately can't join them. This means that you are now supposed to start big pirate quests (65k Interceptors, 10.5k Annihialators and 17.5k Saboteurs). We need them to access the 100 quests quest line and with them reach level 24 as soon as we can. This usually takes 3-5 days depending on your luck with 5-2 groups and surviving enemies that are hunting there.
4) Before we finish those quests and receive our rewards, here is the most important information that you will need in order to achieve the highest rankpoints possible:
Only finish quests with 8 man group with HON-B02 booster (35%), the base booster (50%), the paid booster (50%), your own HON-B01 and HON-B02 (20% total) and the HON-DLB which you get by shooting either tons of normal NPC or big uber NPC such as UberKristallon or UberLordakium. The same applies to big XP quests (800m+). This accumulates to 165% honor booster in addition to the veteran formation, the honor design (exalted or champion) and your skill tree. The final multiplier with everything is 4.30625. The only exception to this is the Saboteur quest to get to level 24 quite a bit faster because we will be missing merciless 2 for some time.
5) After finishing the Saboteur quest we have some Uridium (between 600k and 1m) and are able to play our first missions with 800m XP reward. If you do not get an 8 man group or the XP-DLB, do not worry as those XP are not as valuable to your rankpoints as honor is. We look to finish the first 9 quests within the first 7 days of playing so we can finish the 10th quest in the hades gates we play on the second sunday after the creation of the account. Everyone in the gate should have atleast HON-B02 and most likely XP-B02 which means we do not need to look for a full group as we have it already. You play as many Hades gates as possible to get as many booty keys and log disks as you can. If there is no more Hades group left, you can spend the rest of your Uridium into Zeta gates to get more booty keys, log disks and obviously Havocs. [Playing Hades on Sundays will stay unmentioned from now on]
6) Within the next 7 days you should reach level 24. At best you can collect the booty keys on a golden booty day (Zeus day) and get your Apis/Zeus parts ready even if you can not build them immediately. Always remember to build both at the same time to not waste keys on new Apis parts. You need those keys later if you want to craft more Prometheus lasers. While collecting these booty keys, you get your speed gens and your shield gens. You will need 15 speed gens and 20 shields for sure , maybe you need 16 speed gens depending on your ship (Cyborg, Surgeon, Centurion or others(?)).
7) As you reached level 24, you have been granted access to all Blacklight quests. Now you want your clan's help again. You want to rush all the level 17 Blacklight quests with a full group and all big quests with DLB. Now is the time to gain some rank points. At the end you should gain more than 400m honor from this (4m rank points). Afterwards you go on with the level 24 Blacklight quests which will take you some more time as some of these are actually time quests such as the 72h one.
8) While being on the BL maps you want to shoot Mindfire with your clan and gain as much Uridium as possible. I acknowledge the fact that there are servers that are not allowing you to permanently shoot Mindfire which is a little bit unfortunate. That means you need to spent your time for other things while you wait for your quest to be ready.
9) Whenever there is a Sunday and you have no more Hades group to play (or the group is so bad that it is not worth anymore) you look to play Zeta > Kappas to get full Havoc/Hercules. Always have an eye on your Apis/Zeus so you don't forget them. You can not do ABY without them.
10) You look to finish all BL Quests until you have received the EPHON-100 construction recipe. When you have finished the 55th BL quest , you have received again more than 475m honor (4.75m rank points -> you have now more than 10m). From now on things get more interesting as the previous multiplier from 4.30625 improves to 5.93125 while you have your booster buildt. With the last 5 Quests being 45m each, you get 1.335 billion honor total from these quests only.
11) At last you collect your Annihialator and Interceptor quest. You now have more than 30m honor just from quests within the first 30 days including more than 25 Prometheus, full Havoc, full Hercules and 10 drones. This is the way you get more rank points from now on: You play Mindfire whenever you can except for Sundays as you play Hades all day long. You play the 100 quest line and for every 10th quest you get another 20m honor, you bot ABY week in and week out or you bot Cubikons and Protegits as we have totally ignore these quests (30m for Cubikons and 17.5m for Protegits). It is possible to get more than 2m rank points per week from now depending on your actions. I personally would always advise you to prioritize Mindfire over everything on week days.
12) You did it! Congratulations for spending real life money on a video game that will be deleted within the next years and the time that you will never ever get back but atleast you achieved something only the fewiest will ever do.
13) Additional tips:
#1 Don't think that a booster will make no difference when you are finishing a big honor quest.
#2 Make sure that you have enough NPC/time left for your quests in case any issues appear. For instance: I lost my Annihialator quest on one account because I never played the Wargame before and did not know that those NPC count for the quest as well.
#3 If you don't have the mission booster at the beginning, consider creating a new account as you lose a lot of time and 10 Prometheus laser.
#4 If you fail to shoot Mindfire because you have no group for it, try to collect Uridium somewhere else because you will need it for Zeta/Kappa/Upgrades/Hades.
#5 You can never have too much Uridium. Try to get 25m Uridium of savings for events such as the BL event that we just had or if you want to sweat for a general/chief general, you can do Kappas during the week instead of ABY as it gives more Honor while you play Hades on Sundays. I WOULD NEVER RECOMMEND DOING KAPPAS DURING THE WEEK UNLESS YOU ARE SWEATING REALLY HARD!!
