Infamy Rank is essentially your progression in Skull and Bones, and you level up one rank after the other. If you’re wondering how many ranks there are, here are all the Infamy Ranks in Skull and Bones. 

Raising your Infamy is one of your primary objectives in Skull and Bones. It is a reputation or experience-type system, and completing any of the activities in the game will net you a different amount of Infamy. 

But Infamy doesn’t just put a title beside your name, it brings plenty of wealth too. Once you rise through the ranks in Skull and Bones, you’ll unlock more powerful equipment, cosmetics, and plenty of other things, as well as some rewards just for reaching each rank.  

So, here are all the Infamy Ranks in Skull and Bones and how to level up fast. 

All Skull and Bones Infamy Rank

There are a total of 10 Infamy Ranks in Skull and Bones, here are all of them from lowest to highest and the amount of points you need to earn before moving to the next rank:

  1. Outcast – 0 points
  2. Scoundrel – 725 points
  3. Rover – 2,205 points
  4. Freebooter – 4,055 points
  5. Buccaneer – 6,555 points
  6. Brigand – 9,930 points
  7. Marauder – 15,305 points
  8. Corsair – 21,305 points
  9. Cutthroat – 27,905 points
  10. Kingpin – 39,030 points

You start as an Outcast in Skull and Bones and then make your way to Kingpin. Once you hit Kingpin, your Infamy is further leveled, Kingpin 1, Kingpin 2, and so on. 

If you’ve played the open beta and hit its max cap of Brigand, you’ll start right where you left off as progression is carried over, so it won’t take you long before you reach Kingpin.

How to level up Infamy Rank fast

Completing the main story and contracts is one of the fastest ways to level up your Infamy in Skull and Bones. But doing pretty much everything will provide Infamy points, but obviously in different amounts. 

Exploration, finding new locations, hunting, sinking ships, contracts, and any other activities will give you Infamy. Don’t take harder challenges to quickly level up, though, as anything that is above your level won’t be easy, and failing certain contracts will result in loss of Infamy as well.

There is no need to rush either, as Infamy is fairly paced, and you’ll never feel the urgency to hop levels quickly. That’s everything you need to know about Infamy Rank in Skull and Bones, for more on the game, check out:
