====== Rank ======
[[:Game Mechanics:Definitions:Rank#Rank|Ranks]] are the numerical value representing how progressed you are in a given <wrap preview>[[:Jobs|Job]]</wrap>, <wrap preview>[[:Masteries|Mastery]]</wrap>, <wrap preview>[[:Skills|Skill]]</wrap> or other form of progression.\\
\\
When gaining [[:Game Mechanics:Definitions:Rank#Rank|Ranks]] through any means, each [[:Game Mechanics:Definitions:Rank#Rank|Rank]] is gained one at a time. This means any costs are paid and any benefits gained for each individual [[:Game Mechanics:Definitions:Rank#Rank|Rank]] before the next. See [[:Game Mechanics:Ranking Up]] and [[:Game Mechanics:Definitions:Experience]] for more.\\
\\
A <wrap preview>[[:Character]]</wrap> is limited in the total [[:Game Mechanics:Definitions:Rank#Rank|Ranks]] they may gain in each form of progression. See the table below for the maximums of each.\\
