The higher ranks may seem daunting at first, but you'll also receive greater rewards of promotion points as you advance in the game. Each time you collect a bounty in Kourna, for instance, it's worth four promotion points instead of the one point you'd receive in Istan. Although the "scouts" you visit in Istan are all near resurrection shrines, that isn't true later in the game. When in doubt, check your Mission Map (opened by pressing the U key) to verify the location of the nearest scout. |
Is this something that was newly added or will be added? Has anyone found any place to get sunspear points that aren't by the Shrines? Furthermore does this mean they will give out the blessings past Rank 8?
