  • The fastest way to level up your weapons and Battle Pass is to use the appropriate boosters, which double your XP gain for a time.
  • Playing matches and being involved by scoring kills, taking objectives, using abilities, etc, is the best way to get XP while playing XDefiant.

Getting levels in XDefiant is a grind, but there are a few ways that you can speed it up. That applies to your player account, weapons, and Battle Pass, with each of them seeming to take a long time to level up. We’ll go through a few methods that you can use to get levels faster.

How to level up XDefiant player account

There are two main ways to increase your XDefiant level:

  • Completing Daily Challenges
  • Playing matches

The best way to level up your account fast is to complete Daily Challenges. They offer a big chunk of XP for fairly easy tasks that you can do while playing the game. These challenges will task you with performing certain actions or playing a certain Faction until you fill the bar.

On the other hand, you will be getting XP to level your account by just playing and completing matches in any game mode. The more you’re involved during the match, the more XP you will get by the end. Some of the best match types to get XP are objective-based maps, like Domination, Occupy, and Escort. Add them to your playlist for best results.

How to level up weapons

Using the weapon that you want to level is the most surefire way to level them up. However, there are some factors that you can consider to do it quicker than usual: 

  • Playing with that weapon
  • Scoring kill streaks with that weapon for extra XP
  • Using weapon boosters

The fastest and most efficient way to level up your weapons quickly is to apply a weapon booster buff. These boosters double your weapon XP and come in three varieties. Each type adds more time to your buff with +20, +40, and +60 minutes. You can get these boosters by earning them from a purchased Battle Pass. Ubisoft sometimes also gives weapon boosters for free, so be on the lookout.

The next way to do it is to score kill streaks with your weapon of choice. Successive kills will net you slightly more XP, so play carefully and try to perform the best you can in the match to maximize XP gain.

How to level up Battle Pass

Levelling up your Battle Pass uses the same method as levelling up your account:

  • Completing Daily Challenges
  • Playing matches
  • Using Battle Pass boosters

The most notable difference is that there are Battle Pass boosters that you can apply to speed up the process. They function the same way as weapon boosters, granting you +20, +40, or +60 minutes of double XP gain for your Battle Pass track. Similarly, you can earn these boosters from the purchased Battle Pass track.
