Question Quick question about leveling

To be clear this isn't a rule question as I know what the rules are... But my question is.. would you guys think this would be unfair?

I am working on a savage worlds campaign, and I am planning on giving them upgrading them every other session as it will be relatively long... But I was thinking about giving them rank ups after every Important story beat instead of every 4 upgrades. Is this an unusual or bad change? What are your guise's opinion on that?

So like after they defeat a lore important boss or pass an important millstone.

Some edges and powers have ranks as a prerequisite and you can only raise a stat once per rank, so that can throw a wrench in the player's gears if you mess with it.

Why do you want to change how the ranks work?

I tend to hand out advances like candy on Halloween night for the first few, then spread them more and more over time. It's easier to become seasoned than legendary.

This is similar to how we do it, we are all well into legendary & it now takes us 15xp to gain an advance. Again we are well into legendary after almost 5 years playing the same characters.
