Ranks are permanent account upgrades that stack quality-of-life perks on top of your normal level progression. There are six ranks. Open /ranks in-game to browse every rank and its full benefit list.
The Rank Ladder
| Rank | Price |
|---|---|
| Mortal | Free — everyone starts here |
| Husk | 1,200 Obols |
| Revenant | 2,500 Obols |
| Phantom | 6,500 Obols |
| Demigod | 10,500 Obols |
| Ascendant | 16,500 Obols |
Upgrading from one rank to the next costs the difference between the two prices, so you never pay extra for climbing one step at a time.
How to Get a Rank
Ranks are bought with Obols in the server store — open /store and pick Ranks & Upgrades. Buying a rank gives you a Rank Paper, an item you redeem by right-clicking. Rank Papers can also appear in certain lootboxes.
A few ways to come by Obols:
- Boosting the Ancients Discord server rewards you with Obols (claim with
/claimboost) - Wearing the server's Discord tag earns Obols over time
- Some Season Pass rewards pay out Obols
- See
/buyfor the web store
Permanent vs Seasonal Ranks
- Ranks bought from the store are permanent — they carry over between seasons.
- Some event and lootbox rewards grant seasonal rank papers instead. Seasonal ranks reset to Mortal when a new season starts.
- If a seasonal rank temporarily overrides your permanent one, your permanent rank is restored automatically after the season reset. Store upgrades always apply to your permanent rank.
What Ranks Give You
Every rank improves these as you climb (exact values for each rank are listed in /ranks):
- Homes — from 2 homes at Mortal up to 7 at Ascendant, with the home teleport cooldown shrinking from 60s down to 30s
- Personal Vaults — from 1 PV at Mortal up to 6 at Ascendant
/fix— repair the Ancient sword, axe, or armour piece in your hand (2-minute cooldown at Mortal, 1 minute at every rank above)/eatand/feed— available at every rank; higher ranks wait less and get more saturation- Extract tax — the tax on extracting Ancient Energy drops from 20% at Mortal to 5% at Ascendant
- Calcite Caverns time — Husk and above add bonus max minutes (up to +5 at Ascendant)
- Reclaim Points — Husk and above receive points (5 up to 25) to spend in

Command and perk unlocks at specific ranks:
| Unlocks at | Benefit |
|---|---|
| Revenant | /near — see nearby players (range grows with rank, up to 150 blocks) |
| Phantom | /fixall, /pulse, /clicklock, Outpost capture speed bonus, a chance at double vote points, a chance to preserve meteorites, 2 vote shop deals |
| Ascendant | /fly in plots & cells, /jet, 3 vote shop deals |
The Phantom-and-up percentage perks keep growing through Demigod and Ascendant — for example the double vote points chance goes 10% → 20% → 30%. Check /ranks for the exact numbers at each rank.
Rank Kits
Once the community Fund reaches Fund II, every player can claim a kit matched to their rank with /rankkit (or /rkit). Each kit contains Ancient Energy plus a random useful item — enchant dust, rerolls, vault or home expansions, booster boxes, meteor flares and more — and the contents get better at higher ranks. Your rank's kit can be claimed every 3 days.
