Thanks for sharing that link CMDR. I've played on-and-off for almost 5 years now and I never knew that a full-blown tutorial site had been put together. E:D truly has one of the best and most engaged fandoms/communities in gaming. There are SO MANY player constructed and third party sites that exist to support the game that it's kind of insane. And many of these sites have become the game's backbone because Frontier either won't or can't supply its player base with what it needs or wants. Inara, for example, is more than 70% of what keeps me playing Elite. The ability to create and track our own stories here is invaluable and I hope that it (and other sites like it) continue to operate for the life of the game.

Wait, what, is that right that shield cell banks can't be engineered past grade 4?

Yes, and grade 4 is only if you have access to Colonia's engineers. The one in the bubble is just grade 3.

Yeah, looking at Mel as we speak, that's how I noticed. Strange omission, isn't it.* Anyway, thanks again!

* There's even a hint of the missing yttrium for the next step, but meanwhile it just tells you you're done, and so there is no further step.

I just completed an on foot combat scenario and did not see the Soldier ranking increase in Inara.

How does one increase the Soldier and Hunter rankings in Inara?

Thanks!

Did you hand in the bounties or bonds? That's when it should register. Could be a (smaller or longer) delay before it hits Inara, I suppose.

I now see that it registered it under the mercenary via surface conflicts won, but not under the hunter or soldier

If you hoover the mouse you can see what is required.

Soldier badge - bonds from space CZ
Hunter badge - bounty vauchers from space combat
Mercenary badge - surface CZ bonds.

You're not wrong there. INARA, EDDB, Coriolis, CMDR Exigeous's videos and the likes are the only real way to get a G5 engineered fleet without spending the next ten thousand years hopping around random systems.

Soldier badge is any combat bonds redeemed, space or ground. Mercenary badge is ground CZ only and based on outcome of engagements, not bonds. Hunter badge is any bounty redeemed, ships or on-foot. Inara will often not update until you leave the game and log in again.
