I was looking deeper into how faction upgrade trees influence account strength and found the breakdown https://levelupper.com/marathon/faction-rank very helpful for understanding the structure. Each of the six factions provides contracts and ranks that unlock specific upgrade perks. These perks include things like enhanced weapon purchase options, increased vault size, and backpack upgrades. Since reputation gates those benefits, rank progression directly affects long term efficiency. What concerns me is that every season resets reputation and unlocked upgrades back to zero. That means the same grind repeats again and again. How are players structuring their season to maximize upgrade access early?
