[QUOTE="Creamsteak, post: 6676587, member: 552"] Thanks for the info. I didn't know where to go as my old RG thread is now in General Discussion of all places. The guild would fail as an entity if they failed missions frequently. As such, they only promote people that they can guarantee can handle a particular sort of job. And you may get promoted for different reasons. A copper adventurer is still "something special" in that they can be expected to complete at least one copper job (typical pay being 1000 copper) in a month. Silver is similar, but more along the lines of a real adventurer. Where a copper crew might have to clear out dire rats from a basement (which is still not exactly a cakewalk), a silver crew might take on a band of bandits or goblins. Gold and above are more expensive to hire, and you can expect most people that have earned a golden sigil to be about 5th level. Platinum, Mithril, Adamantine and such are not so much a level thing as a guild reputation level past gold. I'm loosely using the reputation system from the DMG for levels past gold. If what you are getting at is telling the copper ranger at the bar he might get promoted over something, it's definitely possible. The base rate for any contract with the guild is 1000 coins per rank. Obviously that means the contract you've found is a gold one with standards lowered out of necessity. This is a risk to the guild, because failed missions would reduce the guilds reputation as a "reliable" source of skilled labor. It's both a super generic kind of thing to throw into a game and hopefully a useful one. It also means that, should your group be successful, you can hire additional help to deal with things you can't. Knowing that you can get a team of 3rd or 5th level adventurer's to handle something minor while your group handles something major [i]might[/i] be important in this module. [/QUOTE]
