How do you improve your SeeD rank?

There are a number of ways to improve or reduce your SeeD rank, including:

  • - Each enemy you kill improves your SeeD ranking.
  • - Events and choices you make throughout the game will effect your SeeD ranking. For example, finishing missions quicker will result in a higher SeeD rank while talking to too many people or answering questions wrong will reduce your SeeD rank.
  • - Each time you are paid your SeeD ranking will go down.
  • - You can complete SeeD tests to raise your ranking (see below).

What are the SeeD Tests? Where do I find them?

You can access the SeeD Tests after the conclusion of the Dollet SeeD Mission. The SeeD test option is in the main menu screen under “Tutorial” (Select “TEST”).
