The PSI Cadet Rank is the current rank of a Psychonaut in training. It serves as the ranking system in Psychonauts. The counterpart ranking system in Psychonauts 2 are Intern Credits. On the road to becoming a Psychonaut during the events of Psychonauts, Razputin Aquato will need to constantly "rank up" in order to earn new psychic abilities and purchase most items at the Main Lodge. The highest rank Raz can achieve, without cheating, is 101.
Ranking Up[]
There are a number of ways Raz can increase his rank:
- Collecting nine PSI Cards and purchasing a PSI Core at the Main Lodge, then redeeming them all at Ford Cruller's Sanctuary.
- Finding PSI Challenge Markers.
- Collecting Figments worth a total of 100.
- Finding eight Scavenger Hunt items will promote Raz four ranks. Finding the remaining eight items will promote the player an additional four ranks.
- In Coach Oleander's Basic Braining, there is a PSI-Punch target practice course that will promote Raz one rank if he chooses to complete the optional challenges.
- By sorting out all the baggage in a mental world.
