athx Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 I assumed it would be playing the same level as the weapon. IE if you're weapon is lvl 11, you would play roughly level 11 maps. Didn't work out too well. Tried harder maps and the experience varies. Even on the more difficult ones like Pluto it takes forever (if you're soloing). Anyone got ideas as to how to be effeicient in leveling a weapon? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RawrKitty Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 lots of kills, run in groups, but the level does exponentially increase in time, like after 10 it starts taking ages, im okay with this though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheetaki Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 I like doing defense missions to level weapons. But if its a melee weapon I'll level that in a raid or sabotage mission with infected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also what the max lvl for weapons and warframes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nocturo Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 I found it hard to level the pistol in groups, since squad-missions are mostly hit & run + whoever get's the most kills... It's a mess... ppl running around like crazy monkeys bitten in the *most sensitive body part*.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also what the max lvl for weapons and warframes? For warframes is 30. I'm not sure about weapons yet because I keep switching around and messing with different combinations.

GOOSEthaMOOSE Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 If you want to level up fast, just do missions, lots of them. If you want to level up Melle, just go to a Infested missions, they are nice to level up the melle, just be carefull with the guys that explode and stunlock you, the rest is easy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ladyzprince Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 (edited) Best way to level ANY weapon for me is infestation extermination areas. Edited January 11, 2013 by Ladyzprince Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ingway Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 Go any low level zone or alert mission and kill everything with the gun you want to level up, i get some pretty crazy exp for then that way, maxed out my Hek today doing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cleff Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 Take mission you can do solo without any harm. Easy enough to just chill through it. Move slow and try get as much enemy spawns as possible. Better if it's mission with heavy units. Also, weapon xp asign when you KILL enemy with weapon. You can weaken heavy with main gun and then kill it with one you need to level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know the Red restores health and the blue restores energy, but what about the white one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been solo farming that first Infested mission on Venus to level up my Chronus, and it works like a charm. (Not to mention, there is a certain amount of sadistic glee in slashing through hordes of space zombies with very little resistance...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AmmokK Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 Well actually not only killing things levels your weapon, just hitting something and another person in your group kills it, also works. So basically: just hit some enemy and you´re good to go! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm pretty sure i've gained exp for my weapons whens someone in my mission killed a enemy i didn't hit, in fact my weapon leveled up once trough it, so you don't necessarily have to hit then, just have the weapon out and if someone kills a enemy you get the exp for it as well.

Really? Well then this should be seriously reconsidered, since it will only feature people going afk to level over night because making a macro that clicks every now and then on a mission is simple.

Ryme Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 Best way to level a gun is to run in groups. It seems that exp for all kills are shared. Best way to level melee is to run infested missions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
