A player's allegiance rank is a function of the number of Vassals and how they are organized. First, take the two highest ranked vassals. Now the Patron's rank will either be one higher than the lower of the two or equal to the highest rank vassal, whichever is greater. For example, if a patron has two vassals and one is rank 5 and the other is rank 7, the patron's rank will be rank 7, and if both vassals were rank 3 instead, the patron's rank would be rank 4.
Below is the minimum number of followers for a given rank (many more will be required if not organized optimally).

Notes
- During the ?? event, Allegiance Rank was removed as an activation requirement that could appear on loot. It still exists on a small handful of quest items, however.
- During the Old Ghosts event, Silk became a free tinker (like Leather or Ivory) and will remove allegiance rank requirments from loot with 100% success and without adding to the number of tinkers.
- The Circlet of Supremacy raises rank by 1 for item activation purposes, but does not affect the player's rank title.
- For background information on the titles, see AC Wictionary#Ranks and Titles.
