Higher tiers provide more and better rewards. The rankings also get more competitive as you climb the tiers. T20 - and sometimes T100 - requires careful planning, resource management and strategy. Because of the way [[#Yearly Points|points are earned]], it becomes marginally easier to rank throughout the year if you rank consistently. Rewards are distributed '''with a month lag'''. I.e the reward for June's ranking is distributed at the end of July. Finalised rank points are also displayed at that time.

Admirals who are selected will receive the same reward as the Top 500. To be eligible, you need to be within the top 501-1,000 Admirals in your server. Special reward tiers are essentially a lottery and shouldn't be relied upon for ranking rewards.

Some quests give bonus ranking points, they are quarterly, yearly, and once quests. Quarterlies reset at 0500JST on the 1st of March, June, September, and December, and yearlies reset on their specific month. These quests are colloquially known as "Cannons".

* Any bonus points from quests earned after 1400JST on the last day of the month '''are carried forward to the following month'''.

* Any bonus points from '''quarterly''' quests earned after 1400JST on the last day of the month '''are carried forward to the following month'''. If it is the last month before a quarterly reset, those points '''are lost'''.

* Any bonus points from quests earned after 2200JST on the last day of the month '''are lost'''.

* Any bonus points from '''yearly''' quests earned after 1400JST on the last day of the month '''are carried forward to the following month'''. This works '''even if the quest resets on the next month''' (confirmed to work if done between midnight 0000JST and quest reset 0500JST). This means it is possible to stack these points twice for a single month.<ref>https://twitter.com/LceL_/status/1532145270460256256</ref>
