There are 5 ratings. Rating 1 being the Rating when you pledge allegiance to a Power. You have to unlock the next few Ratings through supporting your Power, or undermining a different Power. This also varies per Power, based on its [[Ethos]]. | There are 5 ratings. Rating 1 being the Rating when you pledge allegiance to a Power.

Each Power also has power-specific bonuses at Ratings 2, 3, and 5. This ranges from influence bonus, to a bounty payout increase, to resource price bonuses. Rating 1 and 4 hold no additional bonuses apart from the above-mentioned salaries, commodity allocation, and nominations. Rating 3 will always offer a power-specific module, which can only be bought after 4 weeks aligned with that power. | |||

=== Defecting === | |||
It is possible to defect to an other power. By doing so, you will retain a large portion of your merits, meaning that your rating will likely stay the same, or at worst, will be decreased by 1 level. However, by defecting you will anger your power, who will then try to hunt you down. The strength of the hunters they send are likely based on your rating upon defection (unconfirmed), and are not to be underestimated. | |||
Alternatively, if you would like to start from scratch, you can just leave a Power. By doing so you can not join an other Power for a set period of time, and you will lose all merits. In turn, you will not have to defect, and you will not be hunted down for leaving a Power.[[Category:Powerplay]] | |||
