Learn how to quickly level up your SSX 3 characters by strategically collecting and banking geotag earnings before finishing events. Master this pro tip!
Hey there! So, you wanna know about those geotags and how they can seriously boost your characters in SSX 3? It's a pretty cool trick that can save you a ton of grinding, especially for getting those lower-level characters up to speed. Let me break it down for you.
The Geotag XP Trick:
Here's the main idea: when you collect a geotag, you get the credits instantly, right? But the bonus XP you earn from it? That doesn't actually get paid out until you finish the event you're currently in. Think of it like a bonus that's held in reserve. It only gets added to your character's total XP *after* you cross the finish line.
So, how do you use this to your advantage? It's all about banking that XP! If you go out and collect a bunch of geotags with a high-level character but then decide to quit out or restart the event *before* finishing it, you're essentially building up a huge 'bank' of geotag XP. Then, when you switch to a low-level character and complete an easy event, all that banked XP gets paid out to that character. It's a super effective way to power them up fast!
Imagine this: you grab a ton of geotags with your maxed-out character, but you don't finish the race. Then, you switch to a character who's only level 1. You jump into a quick, easy event, cross the finish line, and BAM! Your low-level character could potentially jump all the way to level 10 after just that one event, thanks to all the banked geotag bonuses. Pretty wild, huh?
Important Note: Make sure you don't quit out of the entire game while you're banking these geotags. If you do that, you'll lose all the bonus XP you collected. So, just quit the current event or restart it if you need to, but keep the game running.
Another Smart Move: Placing Geotags
There's another, less dramatic but still useful, way to leverage geotags. You can use your high-level character to buy geotags, but then have your low-level character place them. The credits you earn from a high-value geotag can really add up for characters below level 6. It's a solid way to give them a nice credit boost, which can indirectly help with leveling too.
What About Snowflakes?
You'll also find these things called Snowflakes scattered around the mountains. They work kind of like geotags, and there are a whopping 599 of them in the game! Their values can range from a few thousand credits all the way up to a million for one special white snowflake. Unlike geotags, their value doesn't change over time, so they're always worth what they say they are.
The color of the snowflake gives you a hint about its value:
- GREEN: These are worth a few thousand credits (around 1,000 to 10,000).
- PURPLE: These are worth a bit more, usually in the tens of thousands (10,000 to 50,000).
- WHITE: There's only one of these, and it's worth a massive one million credits!
So, keep an eye out for both geotags and snowflakes – they're your best friends for powering up your SSX 3 crew!
