[[Rank up]] by opening your rank display. [[Ranks]] increase [[Work]] income: the rank number directly multiplies its earnings. The current ladder has <strong>60 ranks</strong>, from [[Peasant]] to God. You can buy several ranks at once or choose a Tier and Rank destination ahead of your current progress.

Pages are revealed progressively. Reaching a requirement makes you eligible; open the page and use its [[Unlock]] control. Some later pages remain hidden until earlier features are unlocked. Mode restrictions still apply.

== Your first Ascension ==

After God, [[Ascension]] increases your account Tier and returns your rank to [[Peasant]]. Your inventory, pets, farm, BC remaining after the cost, and other progress are retained. Earned feature unlocks persist. You gain <strong>5 [[Rune]]s per Tier</strong> for [[Prestige Perks]].

Rank costs rise on later climbs, and Ascension has its own cost. Keep BC for both. The rank destination control can help you plan a longer climb; Tier 0 means your initial climb before any Ascension. Read [[Guide:Prestige Perks|Prestige Perks]] before spending your first Runes.
