Sort of like with the Jarl or Hugthulu during Lovecraft, there will be one or more community related goals tied to the content which must be completed and can be tracked in the Somberholt UI. Your personal rank within the Order will open up new quests and new quartermaster loot, however certain quests and loot also require the appropriate stage.

In this context, it is possible to get all the way to the very top of the ranking system, but still have limited access because the Community Stage is only level 2. Once Level 3 opens up, you will have a head start on all of the content and quartermaster goods that open up and become available to you.
Thanks for the clarification.

Here's a potential bug in most new maps that I've seen happens quite often, bosses tends to spawn instantly after 1 mob is kills. If this is intended, then ignored this.

This makes it too easy to run and farm those BALANCE TOKENS.
