Learn how to maximize your XP gains in Battlefield 6 by mastering Service Assignments, utilizing Squad XP Boosts, and understanding Service Stars for faster progression.
Walkthrough
- 1Service Assignments: These were added in the September 2017 DLC patch and are used to unlock specializations (perks). Each assignment in the first tier is worth between 30,000 and 50,000 XP.
- 2Service Stars: Earn a Service Star and a 5,000 XP bonus for every 100 kills with the same gun, gadget, or vehicle.
- 3Gadgets: Utilize class-specific gadgets to support teammates and earn XP. Essential choices include the Medic's heals, Support's ammo, and Scout's spotting flares.
- 4Squad Actions: Staying with your squad (marked green) earns additional points for actions like heals, revives, and ammo resupplies, especially when playing as Medic or Support.
- 5Vehicle Destroys and Multi-Kills: Earn significant points through vehicle hunting, critical hits, and multi-kills. Note that AT mines can no longer be stacked since the January 2018 patch.
- 6Planes, Trains, and Automobiles: Skilled use of tanks and planes can earn XP. Spawning into a vehicle as the driver assigns you the Tanker or Pilot class. Behemoths, particularly the armored train, offer secure positions for capping flags and farming kills. Cars can be used for quick travel between Conquest flags.
- 7Single-Player Trophies: A minimum of one campaign playthrough on Hard difficulty is required for trophy completion. The chapter select function allows for replaying chapters to find collectibles or complete missed challenges.
- 8Trophy Hunting Strategy: For platinum, complete all chapters, find all field manuals, and complete mission challenges to unlock codex entries. Specific melee and dynamite kills are required, including a sword kill in 'Breakdown' and melee kills on officers in 'Young Men's Work'.
- 9Mutually Exclusive Trophies: Some trophies and challenges are mutually exclusive, requiring checkpoint restarts or chapter replays. For example, challenges in 'Young Men's Work' involve killing officers with different methods (bolt-action rifle, tank) while the trophy requires melee kills on all three.
- 10War Story Completion Trophies: Each of the five war stories has a trophy for completion. The prologue 'Storm of Steel' and the five war stories ('Through Mud and Blood', 'Avanti Savoia!', 'Friends in High Places', 'The Runner', 'Nothing is Written') comprise the single-player campaign. Completing all chapters on Hard difficulty is necessary for the 'The War to End All Wars' trophy.
Tips
- Activate a squad XP boost when you are a few kills away from a milestone (e.g., 500 kills) to maximize the XP gained.
- If you don't have a boost available, stop using a particular gun until you can join a squad with an active boost.
- Sticking to one gun, gadget, or vehicle consistently will lead to earning Service Stars and their associated XP bonuses more quickly.
- Prioritize playing as Medic or Support and staying with your squad to capitalize on squad bonuses for actions like healing and resupplying.
- For trophy completion, be aware of mutually exclusive challenges and plan your playthroughs accordingly, utilizing chapter replays and checkpoint restarts.
