Week 5 lets grind.....

@ElliotLH I used smoke and Paik and was able to get the 2 arm/disarm. Took me a match or two but finally did it.

@CantGetRight Might follow your advice there about Paik and smoke. Sounds like a good combination for this one.

I'm thinking the C5 mission will take me longer, but we'll see what happens.

@ElliotLH Yea the C5 one took a bit. I just went around throwing the C5 and hoping to kill someone. It really helped when we were fighting over C1 on Exposure. Might be best to use Paik and smoke on that one too.

@ElliotLH the c5 one didn't take me too long. I got lucky because a Mav rolled up with it being full of people in the tunnels on exposure. I tossed 3 c5 at it destroyed it and somehow got 6 kills plus the destroy of it (I think there were people around it lol) and my c5 challenge was done.

Honestly the week 5 grind isn't the problem. It's the overall season one BP grind. I am sitting at probably like 50 to 60 hours played in season 1 and I'm only at level 75. That should be enough to complete the season one BP in my opinion. It's a 10 dollar item that you buy and deserve to be able to get all items for whether you're a casual gamer or a hardcore gamer. Call of duty I know I didn't have to even spend that long competing their season passes when I bought them which I thought was fair. And the grind has just gotten worse. I'm sitting at 14k XP for one point right now. It really kinda kills my urge to even play at all because it's like feels so slow. So I complete the challenges then stop play maybe a few more games per week after that. They really need to cap the XP needed per point. At like 7000 while changing nothing else. It should be fun to complete the BP and get the unlocks, not feel like a chore. And right now at the late stages it's a chore and forever long to get one tier complete after any challenges.

@CantGetRight For me, yes since I wouldn't consider 50 to 60 hours in the 4 weeks season 1 has been out to be a casual amount of play time. That many hours into a game I should be done with the season pass. Not just 3/4 of the way through. Instead it seems this game BP requires someone weekend 75 to 100 hours played to complete the BP which in my eyes is crazy.

@CantGetRight McKay and get on a high point to drop it behind the enemy

Worked very well.

@1gamerdad Lovely stuff, always nice when things line up like that. I can see myself playing a few matches of Exposure and checking the C5 down the stairs lol.

If it makes you feel any better, you stand a better chance of completing the BP than I do. I'm only on level 50, so don't see myself finishing it, but I think you'll get there. At least I hope you do.

@Psubond I figured that average players looking for T1 would need to be at Level 70 by the end of this week.

If you are playing 100K XP per day, you will hit it in Week 11 if you are currently at 68.

@CantGetRight From what I have read, no, when S1 is done, S1 is done, at least for the achievements like Season Mastery and the tier completions. So if you end S1 at Level 98, you can't progress after it ends.

However, the items missed would somehow be available in future seasons, but they never said how those would be available (for purchase?).

@Adamonic I believe it means items missed as in gameplay related items would be available to unlock. The cosmetic stuff in the battle pass missed are just lost.

@1gamerdad oh really? I was assuming any tier item would be made available in some way, like the Lis skin at 100.

@Psubond it is +500XP roughly every 15 tokens earned via the XP mission.

It is kind of wonky sometimes and will change as early as 10-12, or as late as 16. I have had it change mid-round. So something triggers the change, but I have not figured it out yet.

@Adamonic that was my understanding. That's how it works in call of duty as well
