Progression
Everything you do in a match feeds your progress. EXP raises your player rank, and playing also earns you skins, achievements and class levels.
Earning EXP
Section titled “Earning EXP”You earn EXP for:
- Finishing and winning matches
- Kills, assists and healing teammates
- Headshots, kills from behind, kills with fire, and the first kill of a match
- Vehicle kills
- Playing the objective
- Winning rounds and matches in Infected
- Volunteering to switch teams when they’re uneven
- Finishing Bootcamp
- Daily rewards and daily challenges
- Achievements
Your class also earns its own class EXP as you play.
EXP boosts
Section titled “EXP boosts”Sometimes an EXP boost runs, which multiplies your match and class EXP. Check Happening Now in the menu to see if one is on.
A booster is an item that raises the EXP you earn for a limited time. Activate one from your Armory.
Daily rewards
Section titled “Daily rewards”Log in each day to collect your daily reward from the main menu. Your streak builds over time, and rewards grow as it does. They’re mostly EXP, with an item on some days.
Your streak survives a single missed day, but miss more than that and it starts again.
Daily challenges
Section titled “Daily challenges”You get a new set of challenges every day, chosen at random. They ask you to do things such as:
- Get kills, or kills with a certain kind of gun
- Finish matches
- Win matches
- Capture points
Some challenges need a particular game mode or team. Each one earns you EXP and a chance of a skin. Finish them all in a day for bonus EXP and a guaranteed skin.
Achievements
Section titled “Achievements”Achievements reward you for feats in and out of matches, and some give EXP. You can see yours on your profile.
There are two kinds. Required achievements count towards your total, and optional ones are shown in their own section and don’t.
Item drops
Section titled “Item drops”At the end of a match, a few random players can each get an item drop. Everyone in the match sees who got one. Bigger matches can give out more drops.
Drops are gun skins, and rarer skins drop far less often. See Skins for the rarities.
Your Armory
Section titled “Your Armory”The Armory holds your collection of items:
- Guns: skins for your guns.
- Melee: skins for your melee weapons.
- Calling cards: shown to the player you kill.
- Coins: collectibles, including one for a long daily reward streak.
Right-click an item to equip, showcase or inspect it. Showcased items appear on your profile for others to see.
You can also delete an item, but it’s lost forever.
