October has been a good month for Double XP

For you players going for 152:

  • October 24: GLOBAL DOUBLE XP for a week to celebrate Halo 5’s birthday week - October 27: Halo 5’s Birthday! Log on and earn a free Platinum Pack!This has been a good month for stacking XP. I wish 343 would add the Legendary XP Boost packs for sale in the req store. :grin:

Thanks for the info. Just set a login reminder for the 27th.

All this double XP is (almost) making me miss the 152 grind that I did 2 years ago!

I should be just about finished getting 151 by the end of the month. Then 15,000,000 more to get before November 2020… cough, cough… lol.

I’m in the exact same position as you. I’m under 500k to 151 now.

I don’t even exactly remember when I hit 150 to be honest, maybe 5-6 months?

Same here. I decided to go after 152 a couple of months ago. I don’t really care for Infection but it pays out better than FF. Longer the game lasts the more xp you get. I’m trying to get a 1,000,000 xp a week. 1.5 million remaining to get 151. I’m already getting burned out… lol

Same, I just maximize turbo when it’s around as it’s reasonably fun to play.

Holiday fiesta like last year would be amazing, as fiesta to 50 goes so fast, and it included flag and strongholds which provided some variety.

I don’t mind doing a few firefight matches but it gets stale quickly.

H2BR slayer is hilarious. One game I go 22-10, the next game the opponents are a team of cyber assassins and I can’t get kills to save my life.

Man h2br I get exactly what you mean.most games I end up being 1st or 2nd with a good k/d lead to only then lose the game like 47-50 cuz someone went 3-18 on my team. But then some games I get my butt whipped when it’s all good players cuz I keep getting doubled team when everyone else is goofing off.

Can’t tell you the amount of times I got flanked from 3 different directions and all 3 team members were across the map. My fault maybe for not following, but they seem to run off in another direction just before opponents arrive.

The rattle of 9.5mm rounds echo in my dreams…

Good luck! You’ll definitely be able to get 152 before Infinite from the looks of it

As long as double xp is going I’m getting over a million a week so it will take 15 weeks… :thinking:

Excited for the prospect of 2EXP globally, never really liked Halo 5’s take on Infection to be honest and it’s hard for me to even find featured social games at times. I’ve got a lot of work still left to do with 28m left lol so I’ll definitely take it!
Wish they’d add the legendary boosts back as I’ve saved RP just for it. Anybody know if we’ve got a date on that or no?

You’ll get a few legendary boosts from the platinum pack on the 27th. Haven’t heard anything about legendary boost packs recently, not that I’ve seen anyway.

I don’t much care for infection either, my goal now is xp no matter what the cost. Win percentage dropping like a ton of bricks… lol

I’ll be sure to grab it, ty. Shame about the boosts as I’m willing to grab a few lol. Been a while for sure!

Understand that for sure. Personally, I do miss when it was less competitive and more social.
Enjoyed the Halo 3 days the best with top 3 or 50% with just shotties on 2EXP weekends. That was a great time for Infection for me.
The WL% issue is one of the main factors I also avoid it. I know mines only 51.7% ish atm but I don’t want further tank stats lol, always liked to keep my stuff positive at very least. Guess I’ll stick to BR slayer if I can find any games until 24th.

None of that stuff really matters to me. I’m an achievement junkie… lol.

Fair enough. SR 152 itself is a helluva achievement for whoever gets it.

As for Xbox Achievements, my focus on 152 over the last 4 years when I do play has actually delayed my 100% of H5 achievements lol.
I should get to that one day eventually lol. If you or anyone here needs to do that still, I’m in lol!
