Hey y’all, after almost 3 years of not playing this game, I decided to comeback and try to get max before infinite comes out. As of right now I am almost rank 125, and I was wondering if anyone had any good tips to level fast before this fall.
Take a look at this existing thread. The OP there managed to reach Sr150 from Sr9 and he started less than a year ago. In October I think.
Do Microsoft Rewards so you can earn free $5 gift cards that can then be used to buy the Legendary Warzone Boost packs
As some one who made it to 152 pretty quickly the best way to grind xp is heroic warzone firefight, good rp and xp payouts for what can be short games. The absolute fastest way for xp is warzone assault when available but be prepared to be curb stomped and die a lot but who cares about that if xp is the goal. Legendary and mythic firefight has high payouts but you have to use a lot of reqs and games typically last a lot longer. Arena games play whatever is featured for higher payouts. Always always use xp boost. One thing I did is use my Microsoft/bing points for gift cards to get the legendary xp boost packs that way I wasn’t using real money on packs. That way I always had a good number of legendary xp boost. But if you are trying to reach sr152 by fall you need to get over a million XP per week so be prepared for one hella long grind.
There has already been some good suggestions in this thread so I’ll offer a different viewpoint. My suggestion is to really think about why you want to grind to 152 and then determine if you think it will be worth it to you. I’m going to go out on a limb and assume the reason that you haven’t played in 3 years is because you got tired of the game. At SR125 you have about 5 million xp down and 45 million to go. That’s a lot of days you will need to invest.
I get the feeling a lot of people who decide to grind to 152 don’t realize just how much time you have to invest. If you do choose to stick with it, then follow some of the other suggestions here and I wish you the best of luck. Keep us updated because it may be a motivation to other players who are also grinding
I would highly recommend not wasting money/points on loot boxes. You can use those points on much better things that aren’t predatory scams such as other games, for example. Play Heroic FF (since they are increasing the payouts) or Mythic (since it is becoming a permanent mode) until you get bored. Then, play a couple rounds of BTB or any other social mode you enjoy and go back to FF. Use boosts whenever possible.
EDIT: Don’t play any social modes unless you have a boost available otherwise their payouts are not worthwhile.
My suggestion is that play only your favorite playlists, eventually you will reach 152, because its a Waste to time to play only to grind, because the reward won’t be worth it
Lots of Firefight and Infection along with the 2xp playlists, which are labeled with a star!
