Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 has officially launched with a new progression system, and it’s important to know the best strategies for earning XP quickly.

To advance through the levels in Black Ops 6, you’ll need to accumulate XP by any means necessary. However, by focusing on specific methods, you can save time and speed up your progress through all the tiers.

Here are the top ways to earn XP efficiently, unlock every weapon, and ascend the prestige levels.

Stick to objective modes

With a wide variety of modes available in CoD, your favorite choices might not be the most effective for leveling up. If you want to maximize your XP, focus on objective-based modes that emphasize completing specific tasks to win rather than just racking up kills.

Here are the top objective modes for earning XP in Black Ops 6:

  • Hardpoint
  • Domination
  • Kill Order

Hardpoint and Domination are classic favorites that reward players for playing strategically, capturing objectives, and securing kills.

Kill Order is the newest addition, featuring two teams competing to eliminate the enemy High-Value Target (HVT) while protecting their own HVT.

Play the objective

It may seem obvious, but many players focus solely on getting kills, regardless of the mode. While this can yield valuable XP, to truly advance through the levels, you’ll need to complete objectives while also racking up kills, multi-kills, and Scorestreaks.

In modes like Hardpoint or Domination, you can earn kill and multi-kill XP bonuses by defending and capturing various points on the map. Additionally, the new Kill Order mode allows you to boost your score by securing kills while protecting high-value targets (HVTs), but you’ll earn more rewards by eliminating enemy HVTs.

Don’t forget to strategically use your double XP tokens as well. Instead of stacking them all at once, spread them out to maximize your leveling potential.

Complete Daily Challenges

Be sure to complete every Daily Challenge, as they offer a highly efficient way to earn XP. Each day, Treyarch provides you with three new quests that are generally straightforward and quick to finish.

Completing each challenge rewards you with 2,500 XP, and if you finish all three, you’ll receive an additional 5,000 XP. With a potential total of 12,500 XP available daily, it’s an opportunity you shouldn’t miss.

You can find the complete list of Daily Challenges in the Multiplayer lobby menu of Black Ops 6.
