Ranks
Your rank is a badge of experience in CyberTankz. Every battle you fight earns experience points, and once you reach a threshold you are promoted to the next rank. Ranks unlock access to more powerful turrets, hulls and upgrades, and they show other tankers how seasoned you are. There are 30 ranks in total, climbing from the humble Recruit all the way to the legendary Generalissimo.
How experience works
You gain experience for almost everything you do in a battle:
- Destroying enemies — the bigger the kill, the more experience you earn.
- Assisting — damaging an enemy that a teammate finishes off.
- Objectives — capturing flags, holding control points and defending the Juggernaut.
- Daily missions — bonus experience and crystals for completing rotating tasks.
Experience is permanent — you never lose it, so every battle moves you forward. Crystals (the in-game currency used to buy and upgrade equipment) are earned separately and are not the same as experience.

Promotion rewards
Every promotion grants a crystal bonus — the higher the rank, the larger the reward — so reaching a new rank gives you an immediate boost toward your next upgrade. Higher ranks also unlock the ability to purchase and fully upgrade the strongest turrets and hulls, and they are required to join certain ranked battles and tournaments.
Tips for ranking up fast
- Play the objective. Capturing flags and holding control points earns far more experience than chasing kills alone.
- Complete your daily missions every day for a reliable experience and crystal boost.
- Stay alive. Use cover, supplies and protection modules so you spend more time fighting and less time respawning.
- Pick the right map size. Larger team battles tend to award more total experience per match.
