Deep Rock Galactic: How To Promote Your Character | Screen Rant
There are four types of miners that can be promoted in Deep Rock Galactic and each one has their own requirements. Players will need to level up the character they want to promote before unlocking and completing their promotion assignment. Promotion assignments are comprised of four missions that players will need to complete to unlock the promotion option for the Engineer, Gunner, Driller, or Scout in Deep Rock Galactic.
In order to level up any of the four characters, players will need to complete missions such as a salvage operation in Deep Rock Galactic. Players will need to reach level 25 with their character to unlock the promotion assignment and begin completing tasks for them. At the start of the game, players will choose their class, then work on leveling them up by completing missions. Promotions allow players to continue gaining experience for their character after reaching the maximum level in Deep Rock Galactic.
Along with leveling up their character, players will need to earn a lot of credits and use crafting materials to complete a promotion. There are multiple promotions that players can unlock in Deep Rock Galactic, and the credit fee ranges from about 9,000 for the first promotion to 40,000 for the later promotions. Players earn Honor Badges for each promotion, which are new frames for their character that start at bronze and get to legendary. Each level has one, two, and three stars, so players can earn a total of 18 Honor Badges from promotions in Deep Rock Galactic.
To gain the ability to promote a character class in Deep Rock Galactic, players will need to level them up to 25. The quickest ways to gain experience are to increase the threat level, complete missions with the Double XP anomaly, and extract a large number of resources per mission. Players will also gain additional experience for taking part in events and killing as many enemies as possible during each mission. Once players have reached level 25, they can begin the promotion process.

Promotion assignments can be completed alone or while playing with others. Many of the missions for promotion assignments, like Deep Rock Galactic's On-site Refining, overlap between character classes, so players can complete them quicker while playing together. Once the promotion assignment is finished, players can go to the character selection screen and select the promote option.
For the first promotion, players will receive an additional active perk slot, new assignments, the permanent ability to activate machine events, and access to Deep Dives and the Forge. Players also get new Honor Badges for each promotion and the ability to continue leveling their character. Deep Rock Galactic allows players to promote their character using a prestige system that has different missions to complete and multiple rewards.
Deep Rock Galactic is available for Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, and PC.
