Tips for ranking up
- For starters, the Lone Wolves playlist is the most trouble-free and unproblematic way to get up to skill level 10, required for becoming a Lieutenant. This is because as long as your scoring position is in the 1st, 2nd or 3rd place (depending how many players are in the game) you will gain a considerable amount of EXP and if you win a couple games in a row there, you will earn Skill points.
- Team Doubles playlist is also another good choice for ranking up. Just make sure you have a buddy to join you in your team to have faith in them. Otherwise you can be paired up with people who betray teammates for no good reason; or worse, leave.
- Team Slayer playlist is also a good playlist to rank up on after you get your highest skill to 10. Try to use your headset to talk to your team to make it easier. Do not betray people or you will get booted. Make sure you play ranked team slayer not social, it will not get your skill up.
- Try being alert for Double EXP Weekend playlists. You will usually earn 2 EXPs instead of just one. Grifball and Living Dead are recommended for starters, as whichever player ranks you encounter, fun is always guaranteed in the game.
- For those new to Halo, avoid Big Team Battle and playlists that have long range weaponry like Battle Rifles for starting weapons. Gamers with higher experience will dominate new players.
- If you are a skilled at headshot weaponry like Battle Rifles and Covenant Carbines, ranking up will be easy because many starters do not really know how to use these weapons well.
Losing EXP
This only occurs when you quit a Team-based game without it being completed. In other words, it's almost no different from betraying your teammates. If your Xbox Live connection disconnects, it will be counted as quiting and you will lose EXP as well. In all cases, except for times when you really need to leave the game for a really good reason, quitting Matchmaking games are strongly discouraged. You may also lose EXP if you lose a certain number of matches in a row.
Trivia
- Unless you are playing with friends that you have trained with, or you can take on 4 enemies and win, MLG is not suggested for raising your skill.
- Beyond the rank of a lieutenant, rank doesn't really benefit you, except from getting respect because there are no more armor permutations or achievements left to get.Exept for the part that you get really cool rank names for reaching the Grade 4 of each rank(e.g. Strike Commander, Force Colonel).
- In the new update also called AU2 it will make separate ranks for every playlist starting at Recruit to General.
