Prestige Ranks

See also: EXP Revamp (2019) & PRs Hefty Retirement Fund

Summary

Prestige Ranks are ranks that are different from the conventional Ranks which run from 0-60. They are the rebirth ranks to show how many iterations a player has been through. Treat Prestige players as those who've played for a long time and knows what they are doing. For every Prestige rank up, the corresponding Golden Skincrate is rewarded.

While a form of Prestige Ranks was around before v1.4.0, the modern form of Prestige Ranks were added in v1.4.0.

Wall of Fame

Here's a list of the first players to achieve Prestige I and II in R2DA history: The First Prestige Players.

Trivia

The first player to Prestige was Sebotic.
- He was allowed into maintenance mode to safely test the system at his own risk.
The first player reached max Prestige around 2 to 3 weeks after its addition.
This was confirmed by PlaceRebuilder on the R2DA Discord on November 14.
- Proof can be found here.
When you hover over the rank icon, the Prestige Rank is first shown before turning over to show what your normal rank is.
Going Prestige does not allow you to rejoin Beginners servers or redo Tutorial Island 2.0.
Prior to v1.4.1, the cash bonus was exponential growth instead of +10% each time.
A few days after v1.4.1 was released, the maximum party EXP bonus was lowered from 300% to 250%.
Prior to v1.0.2, a form of Prestige Ranks existed, but not in the current form you see here.
- It was loosely defined as the Ranks between 25 to 39. It offered no benefits and was essentially a regular rank.
