After the tips for getting off to a good start, the guide to the best settings and the guide to challenges and gadgets, it's time to focus on another crucial topic in Battlefield 6: experience. To quickly unlock the weapons and attachments you dream of, here's a detailed article on how to catch up with your friends without playing as Gotaga.
Note: We're not going to talk about glitches or exploits that allow you to level up 10 levels in 5 seconds. If that interests you, go to Portal mode. We're talking for real gamers here.
If you haven't yet had a chance to try REDSEC, Battlefield 6's free-to-play battle royale, check it out via Gotaga:
01

The basics

To maximise your experience gains, whichever game mode you choose, follow these tips:
  • Stay on target for as long as possible. In practice, while getting kills does influence XP gained, staying in an area to attack or defend gives you a multiplier.
  • Play as support: between the revives, the ammo box and the shield that allows you to hold a corridor in relative safety, the support class is the most independent from the others and therefore perfect for getting a lot of points.

Activate your boosts

It may seem obvious, but let's be honest, Battlefield 6's main menu isn't the most intuitive in the world. Press the left trigger (L2 on PlayStation, LT on Xbox and W on PC) within the menu and activate the boosts you want. You can also do this in the middle of a game, and if you play in a group, you automatically receive +5% experience.
03

Complete the challenges

Every time you start the game, if you really want to earn XP as quickly as possible, go to the "Challenges" tab and see what the daily and weekly challenges are. They award between 5,000 and 10,000 experience points each, so there's plenty to do and levels to climb quickly.
04

The bot method

Unless you live in a cave, you've probably heard about the growing development of AI. Luckily, in Battlefield 6 it's far from Terminator-like. So, to string kills together, one of the best methods is to create a game and set a password. This way, you'll only play against bots and no one else will be able to join. Sure, it's not the most fun, but if you want to unlock sights, extended magazines and other weapon attachments, it's a solution worth considering.
To do this, enter any Infantry-only mode in the Community and select "Create Game". Then scroll down to the "Password" option, enter any password, start the game and play! Combining this method with the previous ones will help you reach incredible speeds.
All that's left is to find a game and enjoy your new rank, even if you're not playing like a true champion.
