Chapter 2 made some changes to the way XP is earned in the game, and in general it seems like you have to play a lot more to get enough XP to unlock everything in the Battle Pass. Leveling up isn't something a casual player can do anymore - you'll have to strategize.
Here is the good news. You don't have to be a top player to earn tons of XP. You don't even have to be that good. As long as you can survive for a long time or work with a team, there are plenty of ways to earn XP without scoring those big 10 kills wins.

The basics: meeting challenges, missions and medals
There are three basic activities that can earn you tons of XP when playing solo or in a team. No matter what you do, you'll likely finish some of these bonus jobs, and they're all worth big stacks of XP - Challenges, missions and medals.
Challenges are special activities - and new ones are added daily. You can reset one challenge per day, in case you get a challenge that absolutely sucks like getting high rank in solo. Make sure to log in daily, check your challenges, and set the top three you want to complete.
Real XP comes in the form of missions. Missions are weekly activities that anyone can play - yes, even if you don't have a Battle Pass, you can play through Missions. Missions are a series of challenges - each one you complete earns you 52 XP. It is a total of 520 000 XP per week. Completing them is a big deal.
Medals are the last thing, and they're just tiny increases in XP you'll get for completing milestones. Nothing special here, and you don't have to chase them. You will get them automatically while you play. Now that we've got the basics, let's dig out the real meat.
How to earn the most XP per match
Completing mission challenges is a good way to earn XP, but you can't mine them. When your missions are over for the week, they are over. If you want to earn a lot of XP per match, you will need to follow these steps.
Most matches give 3k XP. Here's how to get more.
- Earn medals, a daily card, and top up your XP bar for a huge Bonus x3,75 XP. Add it all up and a mediocre match can still net you 33k XP.
- High Death Rounds aren't worth it if you're farming solo. Stay alive to earn survival XP, farm materials with your pickaxe, and build a lot of unnecessary things away from combat. You'll earn more XP this way, even if it's boring.
- To earn faster and easier eliminations, jump into a Team Rumble game. You can get more wins and assists, and you'll have plenty of time to build - which really helps your team!
- In Team Rumble, join your friends to get XP Boost. Just add people from the match you've worked with and keep playing with them. You'll earn more XP, faster.
Owning the Battle Pass gives you even more ways to earn XP, so if you're looking to level up fast and get the best things, you're probably going to want to shell out some cash for the current season. You will get what you pay for if you plan to play this much.
