I feel like experience gained needs to be ramped up in meltdown mode a bit. I have been in a lot of matches where one team never even gains access to their ultimates until right before the end of the game, if at all. I’m not sure how many other people experience this, but it feels pretty horrible to play almost an entire match without access to your full kit, and really takes some of the fun out the game. Also, very rarely do I see more than one or two people in a match get above level seven, which seems kind of low to me.
You can gain exp from other sources other then player kills such as building turrets or getting assists on minion kills. I always make it a goal of mine to gather as many shards for my team to spend as possible if I’m using a mobile character. I typically end the game with around 10000+ if they don’t surrender. Hope that helps since idk what else to tell you since I’m always fed and build everything i can.
I am in complete agreement. There are only so many shards, so many minions, and so many players to kill because of respawn times. I have said it before I routinely finish games at level 4, and rarely do I make it to 8 or past it.
I only have reached lvl 10 about twice. I am not sure if Gearbox wants us to be able to reach lvl 10 in meltdown, but I’d love it to get a little higher than my usual 5~6. And especiialy since I am a support, I seem to level up SO much slower than most guys.
And Dr_H0H0…
In some games you don’t have the time to get shards. In some games, I CONSTANTLY have to run around from ally to ally to keep them alive and then I have no time to get shards. I understand it’s a great way to get a high score, and turrets can really help your team… But in some games, it’s just really hard.
I understand since in some games i feel like I’m the only one actually pushing waves and killing the enemy. I usually use a mobile character like El Dragon or Caldarius so i am able to push the wave then begin my crystal farming because they cannot do anything without a minion wave.
Gather crystals in between waves and try to build as many things as possible. I would also suggest maybe watching a stream or video of someone that did very well in a game and see what they are doing to gain levels fast. My average score a game is 40+ points so idk how to explain how to level up fast since it just happens for me.
Well I barely ever make kills anyways, so that isn’t a way for me to level up. Like, if I’m following the same person all the time I get an assist for every kill that person makes and I end up 2 levels below that character.(Which is unfair because I was doing my job JUST FINE! Healing ftw.) And inbetween waves, I am way too busy with running to every low health ally to heal them.
But when I was Montana, I had a score of 50 and had loads of kills. So I think it really depends on character too…
With Miko you can try getting an assist on minions as well as player kills. So throw out your aoe bomb every chance you get on the wave to try and soak as much exp as you can. sometimes dealing some damage is more important then just blindly healing people.
