How to level up fast in Fortnite

Fortnite has been the staple Battle Royale game, managing to retain a massive player base even after more than half a decade since its launch. The unparalleled success of Fortnite can be attributed to its exceptional prowess in weaving compelling narratives seamlessly with in-game cosmetics and items. 

One of the features of modern video games that Fortnite primed was their seasonal Battle Pass, where players would complete challenges to earn cosmetics, which would progressively offer better rewards engaging longer gameplay times and more investment into the game. This ingenious system not only enhanced the overall experience but also encourages extended gameplay times and deeper investment, solidifying Fortnite's status as a true phenomenon in the genre. There are a multitude of ways to progress further in the Battle Pass, and level up faster in Fortnite, some of which are highlighted here:

Complete Daily and Weekly quests

Regardless of which season of Fortnite you are playing, it is bound to have new sets of challenges added to the game every Thursday. These challenges vary in complexity, ranging from straightforward tasks like catching fish or inflicting damage with specific weapons to more intricate quests, such as uncovering hidden items scattered across the Island. Each successfully completed challenge rewards players with a substantial amount of XP, making it evident that diligently tackling these tasks each week is the most efficient route to swiftly maximize your Battle Pass. 

 

In addition to the weekly challenges, Fortnite offers daily challenges that involve simpler tasks, including achieving a set number of kills, opening chests, or dealing damage. While these daily challenges yield fewer XP points compared to their weekly counterparts, their consistent completion can still provide a significant boost to your overall progress and allow you to level up fast in Fortnite. 

Honorable mention: Extra Challenges

Either due to a Limited Time Event or one pertaining to the existing storyline, Fortnite will often introduce extra opportunities for players to complete challenges and level up faster. 

Use Party assist to complete challenges:

One of the most useful additions to Fortnite following its launch was the Party Assist challenge, which essentially extends individual challenges to all players in the party and any member of the team allowing any team member to fulfill the requirements on behalf of the entire group. This addition streamlined the process of completing challenges, eliminating redundancy and making them notably more manageable. Instead of the conventional approach of having the entire squad follow you to complete challenges, players can now strategically split up, each tackling a Point of Interest (POI) based on the challenge individually. This not only expedites challenge completion but also ensures that everyone in the party earns XP points, levelling up faster while enjoying the game along the way.  
 

Immerse yourself in gameplay:
 

While this tip to level up fast in Fortnite seems rather intuitive, it often gets overlooked by players. Engaging with chests, consuming foraged items like Mushrooms, eliminating opponents, driving vehicles, and fishing all contribute valuable XP points throughout the course of a match. These seemingly routine activities collectively accumulate to a substantial total, facilitating a faster progression in leveling up. Below is a breakdown of the XP points awarded for tasks that might initially seem mundane:

• Opening regular chests - 140 XP
• Opening regular ammo boxes - 100 XP
• Eliminating a player - 150 XP
• Surviving a Storm circle - 140 XP
• Fishing - 80 XP
• Collecting foraged items - 25 XP

Play Creative and Save the World modes
 

While Fortnite has garnered acclaim primarily for its Battle Royale mode, the developers have been actively enhancing and involving users in its paid Save The World mode, and also simultaneously fostering community-driven projects in Creative mode for quite a while. Even though the XP distribution across these modes is highly varied, you have a lot of opportunities to earn some while taking a break from the regular Battle Royale mode offering a delightful change of pace especially if you are bored of it, or are frustrated of the sweats ruining the experience. 

Buy levels with V Bucks 
 

If you prefer not to invest a significant amount of time farming XP in Fortnite, there's an option to purchase up to 100 Battle Pass levels every season. Each level comes at a cost of 150 V-Bucks. However, it's advisable to exercise caution, especially if it's your initial attempt at buying levels during a season. There's a reduced cost for the first purchase of 25 Battle Pass levels. Buying between 12 to 24 levels for the first time may result in spending more V-Bucks for fewer levels, making it less cost-effective.
