Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 players discover a classic feature from older games in the franchise that can be very easy to miss.
How To Level Up Fast
The most efficient way of leveling up fast in Black Ops 6 multiplayer involves some clever Perk selection and choosing the right game modes to earn the biggest rewards. This method involves playing core Kill Confirmed which involves scoring eliminations and collecting Dog Tags. Usually, this game mode doesn't dish out tens of thousands of XP but with a loadout optimized for XP collection, it's the best mode for it.
The primary and secondary weapons of the loadout don't matter. Whether it's the Tsarkov 7.62 or the AEK-973, players can use any weapons they want and still reach the highest ranks quickly. The main source of the XP comes from the Scorestreak combination of UAV, Counter UAV, and HARP, which spot or block the locations of the enemies on the minimap during matches. While active, all three of these streaks earn plenty of XP without the need to constantly hunt for eliminations.
The next part of the loadout involves selecting the Tactical Expert Wildcard which grants players two additional pieces of Tactical equipment. For maximum XP, the Decoy Grenade is the one to choose.
Last and by no means least is the Perk selection. To level up fast in Black Ops 6, picking any three Perks from the Strategist category unlock the Strategist Combat Specialty. This Specialty grants an additional score bonus for playing the objective and destroying enemy equipment dotted around the map.
The Strategist Combat Specialty paired with Kill Confirmed results in huge amounts of XP generated simply by collecting friendly and enemy Dog Tags.
Treyarch is already adjusting the XP earn rate in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 making the process of leveling up quickly much easier. For a solid foundation, the tips listed above make all the difference when looking to climb the ranks with ease.
