Always an Emissary. Always.
If anyone doesn’t think being an Emissary seems to be worthwhile, keep this in mind: there’s always a multiplier active when playing as an Emissary. Sure, it’s more dangerous, but the boosts are pretty significant.

Okay question ahh how does one become an Emissary?
Buy an emissary flag from any faction representatives, then vote at the emissary tables to fly the emissary flag.
Voting can be done at any outpost, but purchasing a Reaper’s Bones flag in particular can only be done at The Reaper’s Hideout.
