How to Earn Rankings
As you progress through the game, Vyse will earn certain titles. Earn them all and you can unlock goodies! However, don't worry if you don't actually see every title appear during the course of a game. It can be difficult to tell when you've gotten certain titles because some titles have a higher priority than others. For instance, if the player receives the "Vyse the Extravagant" title before "Vyse the Charismatic," the latter title will never appear as actually having been achieved. Here's a full list of titles, ranked from least to greatest priority.
1) Vyse the Charismatic: Achieved by finding all Crew Members.

2) Vyse the Extravagant: Player must have 1 million gold and all of the ship luxury items. These include the Intercom (buy in Nasrad), Enhanced Kitchen (buy in Nasrad) Floor Hearter (Ixa'takan Black Market ship), Air Purifier (Alania, the giant spider monster, drops it, but only with Kalifa in the active party), Yafutoman Alcove (buy in Yafutoma), Soundproofing (from Raja or Raja Embla ship battles in Deep Sky, but only with Kalifa in the active party), Expnsive Wheel (buy in Crescent Isle), Chandelier (buy in Crescent Isle), Wooden Doll (Roc, the giant bird creature, but only with Kalifa in the active party).

3) Vyse the Battle Lord: Kill more than 2,500 monsters. This number can be checked at Hamachou Island.

4) Vyse the Fisher King: Catch more than 1,000 fish (though they don't need to be kept in the inventory).

5) Sky Battle King Vyse: Defeat all 4 giant monsters (Roc in Ixa'taka, Alania in Glacia, Giant Looper near the Looper's nest Discovery, and Obispo, which can be found by flying north from Crescent Isle until you loop around the map to the bottom), and 12 other ship battles with Valuans, Black Pirates, etc.

6) Exploration King Vyse: Find all 88 discoveries and 90%+ of the hidden treasure chests (this can be checked at Hamachou Island, too).

7) Vyse the Bounty King: Defeat and claim the rewards for all 8 bounties.

8) Vyse the Legend: All discoveries, all treasure, all bounties, finish the Piastol/Maria side-story (which is necessary to find the last Discovery anyway...).

(Note: The title "Vyse the Fallen Pirate" will always supercede the other titles until Vize and the other fakes are defeated in Nasrad.)


Bonuses Earned for Getting All Ranks
Earn all the ranks listed above to unlock the following bonuses:
Hidden character Vigoro the Black Pirate: After unlocking these features, if the player returns to Crescent Isle, the player will encounter Vigoro in his new profession.

Hidden weapon Sky Fang: The Mystery Merchant begins selling this powerful weapon. It is the most powerful cutlass in the game that Vyse can equip.
