A Warzone player has uncovered an exploit that allows them to level up without firing a single bullet. This new fast level up method is allowing players to earn XP at a rapid pace.
Usually, Warzone matches require players to empty the magazines of the best guns and weapons into their opponent in order to secure the kill. With The Haunting event in full swing, players dropping into the action are always on the hunt for the most efficient ways to level up fast.
The recently discovered exploit enables players to earn thousands of XP without having to utilise their weapons to gain the upper hand over the course of a match. Instead, players are using tactical equipment to disrupt enemy vision before eventually eliminating them.
Uncovered by Reddit user Awalto990, the player throws a number of stun grenades which earn over a thousand XP each time before securing the victory.
The player reveals: "I got 4x the XP by stunning the guy than I did for killing him." Rather than it being classed as an exploit, it appears the stun grenade tactic is an intentional design. Those that throw a stun grenade in the first couple of circles only receive a few hundred XP but in the final stages of a match, players can earn well over a thousand which is much higher than actually scoring an elimination.
One player says: "I believe tactical equipment XP increases as your placement improves in a Warzone match. I've noticed this stims giving 1000 XP in endgame gas plays but not so much when testing at the start of a match."
It's not just stun grenades that are paying out huge amounts of XP during matches. Another fan reveals: "The fastest way is decoy grenades in Lockdown because every crate has munitions boxes and each decoy gives 500 XP for being thrown in the vicinity of a player."
Although it's not technically a game-breaking exploit, the stun grenade technique is one of the more unique ways to earn plenty of XP in as little time as possible. You still need to end up in the final circle, so bare that in mind before throwing stuns all over Al Mazrah and Vondel.
