Battlefield 6: How To Level Up Fast

by

After a ten-year wait, Battlefield 6 successfully revitalized the series, rescuing it from a long period of stagnation. Despite its many strengths, the game unfortunately includes a repetitive and frustrating progression system that detracts from the experience.

Okay, so the game *does* have a cool selection of weapons and gadgets, but honestly, getting to use anything beyond the basic stuff feels like a real grind. Unless you’re a pro, leveling up is just endlessly repeating the same things with almost no progress – it’s super frustrating!

Luckily, there are lots of ways to level up faster in Battlefield 6 without ruining the fun. Many of the best methods for earning more XP actually improve your gameplay, proving the developers really nailed what players wanted.

Play The Role

It seems simple, but a lot of Battlefield 6 players pick their class based on the weapons or gadgets they offer, instead of focusing on *how* that class is meant to contribute to the team.

Getting kills earns points, but you’ll climb the ranks much quicker by focusing on playing your character effectively. Plus, your teammates will appreciate you more when you do!

Battlefield 6 features four main classes, and each one has different specializations to let you customize your playstyle – a nice feature if you’re used to the wider range of options in older Battlefield games. No matter how you build your character, effectively using each class’s unique gadgets and abilities is the fastest way to earn experience points in every match.

Generally, Assault units are your main attackers, Medics keep your team healthy and equipped, Engineers do the same for vehicles, and Recon specialists provide battlefield awareness. Ultimately, how you play each role is up to you.

Stay With The Squad

Just like monkeys working together, a large team can be powerful in Battlefield 6, even when facing tough enemy defenses. While Battlefield 6 isn’t as complex as games like Squad or ARMA, and many players won’t focus on detailed strategies, it’s still important to work with your team.

Staying with your team earns you bonuses for hindering enemies, finding targets, helping teammates, and using your character’s special skills effectively. Unless you have information I’m missing, you need to be close to a fallen teammate to revive them or repair a damaged vehicle.

Please, even if you’re not playing a medic role, help your teammates when they’re down. It costs you very little time to pull them to safety and give them a boost, and you’ll earn experience points for it. Plus, they’ll likely return the favor when you need help!

‘Borrow’ Kits

An old saying, often attributed to a wise figure named John Battlefield, suggests it’s wasteful to ignore useful items. While I can’t recall the exact source, the idea rings true, especially for new players. If you’re just starting out, making the most of even basic weapons and equipment – even if they aren’t ideal – is a smart move when better options aren’t available.

When soldiers die, they drop their gear, and it’s clearly labeled with what’s inside. You can quickly check this loot by approaching it, but you won’t have much time to browse since you’ll likely be under attack. A good strategy is to quickly scan the main weapon – if it’s a type you haven’t unlocked or has upgrades you don’t have yet, grab it.

As a new player, it’s usually a great idea to get a kit from a more experienced player. This will give you access to better weapons and equipment that can really improve your game. For example, the grenade launchers available to the Assault class make clearing buildings much easier than using just a single grenade from your basic starter kit.

When quickly switching weapons, the main thing to remember is whether you have ammunition for the new one. If a teammate is willing to share, that’s great, but having a reliable weapon like an M4A1 with some bullets is always better than a powerful gun you can’t actually fire.

Play Initiation Breakthrough

The Breakthrough introduction is a fantastic way to learn how the game works, and it’s surprisingly effective for quickly gaining experience and improving your character.

Most of the players you’ll encounter in these lobbies are actually computer-controlled bots, with just a few real people mixed in. While those human players can still easily defeat you, the bots are much easier to practice against – they’re not completely helpless, but they won’t crush you as quickly.

I’m really excited about the introduction lobbies! They seem perfect for players like me who are still getting the hang of things. It’s a great way to practice and build up my skills and gear before jumping into the more competitive modes. But, let’s be real, I guess some people will still just enjoy crushing new players – even though there’s a better system in place now!

The Cheese-Its

As I mentioned before, the best way to improve in Battlefield 6 is to play naturally and work with your team. However, there are a few strategies you can use to quickly gain progress without being completely unhelpful.

I especially like getting lots of experience points with vehicles. Battlefield 6 gives you XP for almost anything you do while driving – even just firing your weapons, even if you miss! While you *could* just sit in a tank and shoot randomly, you can actually use this to help your team by constantly earning points and distracting enemies.

The game’s off-road vehicles are equipped with powerful .50 caliber machine guns that you can fire endlessly without worrying about overheating – just tap the trigger instead of holding it down. While these guns don’t do much damage to tanks, they’re incredibly effective against helicopters, lighter vehicles, and can quickly eliminate enemy soldiers.

For the best results, aim at enemy positions from a distance or at building entrances when you’re close. Continuously firing the weapon earns you experience points for shooting, suppressing the enemy, and getting kills. This also helps keep the opposing team pinned down, though suppression isn’t as strong in Battlefield 6.

As a huge fan, I’ve discovered something really cool! You can actually get those turrets and tank machine guns to fire endlessly for experience, just like the mounted weapons. It’s a little weird, though – you don’t get *quite* as much XP from stationary turrets as you do from the ones you mount, even though they’re basically the same gun doing the same thing. Still, it’s a fun way to grind!

If using powerful weapons like the .50 caliber isn’t enough, you can use infantry fighting vehicles to really destroy things. After all, there’s no better way to show your support than by demolishing the building your team is fighting in.

If legitimate methods aren’t getting you results, some players are using unofficial ‘XP farms’ created through the Portal feature. While EA is trying to shut these down, it’s difficult because players can easily create new servers to replace the ones that are removed.
