    Fastest leveling & EGO'ing way nowdays?

    Doing Dam Defence a million time aint my thing
    Running San Quentin ruins is slow and boring (HUGE loads of geart tho)
    Mine 99 has been nerfed to oblivion

    Arkfalls, i dont know how many ive done, too many. Sieges are once per hour and while atm i'd do em till the end of time, they get just as boring as arkfalls soon anyways.

    Pursuits are mostly annoying, i dont wanna do things i dont care or dislike, its like chasing some stupid achievements, i dont even want achievements, i'd turn all of them off in consoles if i could.
    If human stupidity is as large issue as we are told, cant we just remove speedlimits and let the problem solve itself? - Me

    I have to agree on many of the Pursuits that involve time trials, and rampages etc...I don't have the reactions to get the times or scores needed. I think just finihsing them should trigger something, very fustrating to run a time trial finish it and get squat because some guy finsihed so much faster that you did.

    other peoples scores have no effect on your own personal reward other than the possible self gratification to show off their name in the top 3.

    Do the little road sides (emergencies) they give decent xp and scrip. The Mutant and Raider ones are fairly short and pretty easy.

    major arkfall hoping is the best way IMO. And more fun and entertaining but slightly slower is doing coop maps.

    Both give nice XP, Keys and Loot.

    roadsides don't drop keys or colored loot so you're not maximizing your play time. Roadsides are however all over the place though so they are very convenient for quick but smaller XP bursts.

    Hmmm problem is grinding is what all games devolve into. I'd suggest mixing it up. My best example of what I mean is I finally finished out the Freightyard pursuits-I freaking hate PvP so I forced myself to do it. I tried my best to NOT wait to get the turret because that sucks not helping the team. I even accepted the fact I had to re-gain some of my turret kills that the game took away. But I did it and I went on to do the Echelon Contracts (for a big whopping 10 points per) because I now want to go from Reliable to Trusted and be done with Echelon. Except, no I won't be-I need to be able to buy stuff at Echelon to finish out the pursuit-10 to be exact.

    Well, what do you know the next daily is FY turret kills. Suck my nose.

    I don't care about the achievements but I do like to finish out things in the game-Echelon is the last I need for trusted status and I hate it.

    As far as your particular problem, prior to doing this I would try different things-running around doing some emergencies, then arkfalls, then coop, then sieges that popped up, and so on. I also try swapping out and using different weapons. At arkfalls I might use a maxed out weapon because it won't get xp but often I focus on one weapon that needs something to finish out a pursuit. ARs need 5000 kills, so it's not about xp, so I use them sometimes exclusively for arkfalls, sieges, and places with mobs.

    You can get greens and possibly blues from road sides, and you could always still tag arkfalls while doing so, if desired. True no keys from road side emergencies, but they just wanted xp I thought. I have enough weapons now and over a mil salvage I don't care about keys that much anymore.

    Yeah and from what I've been told there was a major glitch when the game first came out and some of those at the top of the list benefitted from it and the list has never been changed.

    Also, in most cases in the game don't take the leaderboards at all seriously. The game cannot count. I've had it over and under-credit me all along the way. I can revive 5 players and end up with it saying 0 or revive no one and it might say 12. I got 4 rescue kills in TDM and got credit for 1 (for a contract). I have killed many many afflicted at times at sieges and gotten credit for 5 and yet I've come in late to some arkfalls (gotten there for the boss leg) and gotten second place. I don't think anyone should really believe the leaderboards matter at all.

    Yeah, it really depends on what you want. I like to go and do that rampage at overpass because I'm getting close to 50k kills. So, I will do that. I am also working on gold for the time trials so I'll try those. Great for ranking up your vehicles. For the Cerberus, I do Explosions 101 to drive it. The great thing is that for many of the things I'm doing I am racking up xp along the way.

    Roadsides are boring, arkfalls WAY boring and slow. Considoring how well roadsides USED to pay, some even gave keys to what they do now... Seriously why anyone would bother. Trion killed roadsides for me.

    Im mostly looking to "power-level" my charter, if loot involved, nice, if not, no problem.

    May need to think me a build to speed-run San Quentin... If only the inventory wasnt complete disaster among every other part of this game. Try to salvage 100+ slots worth of loot fast, jeah, not gonna happen.
