Designation

In Sunborn, "Designation" refers to a player's rank or level''. ''While increasing ones Designation does not increase the damage done during campaign and multiplayer games, it does unlock new character customization options within the Market, enabling a wider variety of options.

Designation Ranks
Upon loading the game for the first time, the player is assigned the rank of "Novice". This is the most basic rank, and will be improved by continually playing the game, both in campaign and multiplayer scenarios. In order to increase their rank, the player must earn experience through the completion of levels and through numerous other feats within the game. Completing levels on higher difficulties awards more experience, for example, as does killing large numbers of foes without dying. Finding collectibles can also award experience.
