    Wow, really? 50/50 Assaults is the only requirement for Captain Rank? Perhaps you want to check again before you're labeled dumb yourself.

    If you cleared 50/50 assaults and Nyzul Isle and never bother to rank yourself up, then yeah that's dumb.

    It's nothing to do with intelligence or technicalities. Captain rank doesn't give you the extra tag, completing the 50 assaults does.

    I get people telling me all the time you can't get the extra tag without the rank and it's simply wrong.

    Edit-Pretty sure he was trying to say it's dumb not to go ahead and finish the missions and get the actual perks of Captain, free runic portals and undersea entrance.

    Yes, that's a technicality.

    You're wrong too, getting the extra tag is 50 regular assaults plus one successful Nyzul Isle Investigation.

    So, for the record, since people want to argue "technicalities" in this thread:

    Ability to Save Extra Tag at Commissions Agency NPC - Completing all 50/50 Assaults plus one successful Nyzul Isle Investigation.

    Captain Rank - Completion of the "Promotion: Captain" quest which is offered by talking to Abquhbah upon completion of 50/50 Assaults and completion of the Aht Urghan mission line.

    Sorry, I'm not trying to say nyzul investigation isn't part of it, it's been well over a year since I've had the ability to get the extra tag. I just know that when I completed my last assault I had the extra tag.

    My point was mainly that I get a lot of people telling me you have to have captain for the tag when it's not true.

    Oh I agree, I just figure since this is the standard forum and some people without Captain might be reading, it's best to just put it all out there.

    I just remember the extra tag requirement clearly because upon completion of my 50th Assault, I was able to get the extra tag while some in my static did not due to the fact I'd done some Nyzul Isle on the side.

    Yeah, some people don't bother to do TOAU missions beyond Salvage access.

    I know it's hard, ladies, but keep it civil.

    I won't deny for some selling coins is a great idea, but for me with alternative sources of income, I don't see the point.
    same, never buy coins with IS. to me, its a waste

    ISNM = 20k minimum usually to 380k max(depending on server)

    i will spend my IS on ISNM onry

    So yes you do not need Captain for it, just all assaults clear.
