The title says it all. If you looking to hit 152 and got a lot of req points lying around, buy some xp packs while you can. (Both Arena and Warzone)
Unless if you never play warzone/ firefight or already have a lot of legendary warzone exp boost, I wouldn’t waste your reqs or money on the arena one. The legendary exp boost for arena gives little over 5000 exp per game. While the warzone legendary exp pack gives a little over 10,000 exp per game. Both the warzone and the arena packs cost 150,000 reqs or 5 dollars. Arena might have shorter games but if you do the math, the warzone boost will give you double the amount of exp that arena would give. 5000x 20= 100,000 in exp boost for arena. 10,000x 20= 200,000 in exp boost for warzone. If you ask me there is no real reason to buy the arena pack unless if you never play warzone or already have a lot of warzone legendary packs.
Score! And now I know to keep saving up REQ points for when they appear in the future. Hopefully they pop up more frequently.
Out of curiosity does anyone know when these are leaving?

Thanks for confirming the payouts. I’ve seen mixed reports over the years while trying to google Legendary XP payouts.
I’ve been mostly playing Infection, using up all the boosts I’ve acquired over the years. Now I’m on to Warzone Firefight doing the same thing. I did some math and found Infection gives more XP per minute than Firefight. So I was considering just getting the Arena XP Boosts, but if the Warzone ones give double I might do Firefight instead.

The legendary warzone boost gives 11,225 each game win or lose. The legendary arena gives 5613 exp each game win or lose. However, they both might be half of that. On the message of the day, it says there is a double exp for the holidays. I don’t know if that double exp is still happening or not and if it doubles the boost exp too. I haven’t played halo 5 in a while so I forget how much exp you get doing a match but I’m hoping the event is over because 8-10k exp per warzone match is good exp. 11,225 and 5613 are both uneven numbers so I think the double exp might be over because if it doubled the exp then it would always be an even number.

Boosts don’t get doubled.

That makes sense. Do you know if the double exp is still going?
As of last night EST the XP was still double for me. I’m not sure when they will end it, hopefully after the New Year holiday.
So each pack costs 150k req points, but how many boosts do you get per pack?

20 legendary per
And the best method is a mix of firefight and infection so you don’t get tired of doing the same playlist.

Why infection, does it give you more XP than other modes?

yes you get 15K per game with a legendary boost
and for firefight heroic you get 20k per game with legendary boost
Infection is definitely the best.

Great, another reason to hate on 343. I strongly dislike playing both those modes, but they neutered the XP pay out for the traditional Halo base game modes. This is going to make me really dislike H5, the reward in Infinite had better be worth it.

Just remember those are double XP numbers that he listed so they’ll drop once it goes away. Only way to get that much in Heroic Firefight normally would be to use an A.I. Kills boost.
