How to earn XP and level up fast in Fortnite Season 2

Fortnite Season 2 Chapter 3 continues to use a similar experience system to the previous one. In this Fortnite Battle Royale guide we tell you the best methods to earn XP and level up quickly:

How to level up fast in Fortnite Season 2

The methods we have when it comes to leveling up fast during Fortnite Season 2 Chapter 3 are very similar to what we have known so far. Each level requires 75,000 XP, and each level from level 200 onwards increases the amount of experience needed per level by 400. In total we need 15,000,000 XP to level up to level 200 to unlock everything in the Battle Pass (including the Additional Rewards).

Playing Save the World

Yes, exactly what you have read. Since Fortnite Season 1 Chapter 3, successfully completed missions in Save the World give us experience that we can use to level up in Battle Royale mode. Mind you, there is a daily limit: 600,000 XP per day; the limit resets every day at 17:00 PT.

Playing Creative Mode

Playing Creative is another common method to level up fast returns to Fortnite Season 2 Chapter 3. Fortnite's Creative Mode has an infinite number of maps; many of them were updated last season so that you could gain experience by playing them. Use the Discover tab and look at the name and description of each map, as they usually specify whether they give XP or not.

Another option, which had a nerf that Epic Games did not specify, is simply being AFK (absent, leaving the character still) in the Creative Mode lobby. Depending on the lobby, we may or may not gain XP every 15 minutes. We may have to move around a bit to prevent the AFK detector from preventing us from earning XP.

Completing Battle Royale Missions

There are countless new missions in Fortnite Season 2 Chapter 3. We have Season Missions (the lifelong weekly ones), different sets of Story Missions for this season, and also the Daily and Milestones are back. For completing tasks of all kinds we can get experience. This is the experience we get for completing each type of mission:

With the Milestones there are again a couple of curious exploits that will allow us to go up a few levels at once. One of the milestones consists of destroying structures; if we get a Titan Tank, we can go to an urban area and simply start destroying everything with the tank.

Two other Milestones are spending gold bars, and buying from vending machines. If we find an Armatronic vending machine (the ones that sell weapons), we can buy all the ammunition we can to advance in these two Milestones and thus gain XP.
