Instead of making the XP grind less they are further doubling down on challenges and actually will be ruining it for those who like the new challenge difficulties.
they clearly are refusing to revert the battle pass completely so if that’s the case they need to make 1 star = 2-3000 XP and increase the star rewards for challenges to match their difficulty.
this would allow people who don’t want to do the challenges a legitimate way of levelling up without them. Plus would be more rewarding for those players that commit to completing the challenges
