Does Buying Plates Still Give Weapon XP? The Ultimate Guide
In an effort to level up in Warzone 2 and acquire new weapons, Warzone players have been indulging in various strategies for years. One of them is buying plates, believing that it would grant more weapon experience (XP) for their guns. Despite the introduction of new gun mechanics, the question remain: Does buying plates still give weapon XP?
Direct Answer and Explanation
Yes, it does! Buying plates directly affects weapon XP in Call of Duty: Warzone 2. Each time you purchase a plate, holding the weapon you’re purchased the plate for, immediately grants weapon XP for said weapon. This is also applicable for other weapons regardless of the plate you’d purchased for.
Breakdown of the Process
Here’s a step-by-step guide to illustrate the XP-granting process better:
- Equipment: Choose the weapon in your inventory that you think needs XP.
- Buy Plates: Purchase plates according to your preference and allocate them in your inventory inventory.
- Get the Right Plate: Prioritize purchasing the plate matched with the weapon you require XP for.
- Apply the Plate in the Right Weapon: Replace the existing plate with purchased plate on the chosen war weapon.
- XP Earned: At this stage, the respective weapon earns weapon XP the moment the plate is upgraded.
Additional Tips: To optimize your plate earnings, focus on buying stacks of the same plate before applying it to your armory. This strategy leads to the most significant rise in weapon XP. A plate is only applied where the same plate type plate is held.
New Gun Mechanics and How We Adapt
Warzone is constantly evolving, and an update may change the strategy. Since the release and updates of Warzone Warzone 2, you can’t buy weapon damage or movement speed with acquired XP. Instead, spend your hard-earned to upgrade weapon attachments and blueprints for your guns more efficiently. This means if you need to boost power, look for blue prints that give you that as an attribute.
Bonus Tips
• DMZ Weapon XP: Kill enemies and complete contracts quickly to get more weapon level up tokens in DMZ mode. This way you will earn XP both in and out of Play.
• The Best Plate Build: Don’t settle for anything standard. Upgrade your plates once you’ve acquired a satisfactory amount. This ensures they stay strong and maintain speed while also providing you time to make the most precise shots.
