The players of Fortnite Battle Royale are always eager to rank up their Battle Pass and get every reward of a given season. Since it increases your season level, earning XP helps with that and you will be rewarded with a few Battle Stars for each level you earn.
When the first time progressive cosmetic items were introduced, getting XP also became a main thing since it unlocks new styles for outfits such as Lynx, Dire, Calamity, and many other ones that players get with the premium Battle Pass.
However, getting XP fast is not as intuitive or obvious as getting Battle Starts, especially since your level is reset each season. A lot of players know they get some XP points for completing challenges, but do not know how much they are able to get by playing a match.
According to a Reddit user called VillainGIy, players are able to get XP for:
- Kills: 50 XP for their first kill in the match, 20 XP per kill after that (capping at seven kills total).
- Survival: 17 XP per minute after the first minute of a match, capping at 14 minutes.
- Placement: 25 XP for top 20, 100 XP for top 10, 300 XP for a Victory Royal
There are good ways of boosting your XP each match in Fortnite Battle Royale. Here are some techniques that you can try.
- Surviving
- Completing all daily and weekly challenges
Each player of Fortnite is able to have up to three active daily challenges to complete and get about 500 XP. Whenever the slot is available, the game will add the single challenge the day after that. Merely completing daily challenges is able to award enough XP points to make up for two matches.
- Buy the premium Battle Pass
When players purchase the premium Battle Pass, the first thing they get is a 50% personal XP boost that is active each match for the whole season. From that point, they are able to unlock more 10% boosts and plain 1,000 XP for reaching particular tiers.
- Play with friends
All the players who have the Battle Pass are able to get further XP boosts when playing with friends. A player with a Battle Pass also unlocks the ability to boost the XP of their friends each match, so having a lot of friends will max out the bonus everyone gets for playing each match together.
The best way to level up fast in Fortnite Battle Royale is to buy the Battle Pass and play squads with three friends. For those who only have one friend online, playing duos will also help since they will boost your XP. Do not forget to always complete at least one daily challenge in order to leave a slot available for the next day and complete at least four of the level weekly challenges to get a huge amount of XP. Doing that thing will get you closer to the sweet tier 100 or the final stage of the cosmetic item that you love.
