How to Increase your Parkour XP?

Do it Quick with Parkour Challenges

  • Parkour challenges are completely based on parkour skills and are scattered across the map. You can use your binoculars to track these challenges.
  • To complete them, you have to survive and reach the designated spot before the hordes of zombies in your way bash your head.
  • Reach the spot faster than the required time to earn more parkour points. The quicker you reach there, the more parkour points you will earn.

Activate Windmills

  • There are several windmills dispersed all over the region. You need to get on a tall structure and use your binoculars to find them.
  • Once you have reached the windmill,  you will be assigned different parkour-based objectives.
  • Different ranks indicate the difficulty level of activating that windmill.
  • As you activate the windmill you will have to assign it to one of the factions, Peacekeepers or Survivors.
  • You will also receive a reward of parkour points along with the windmill as your safe zone.

Complete Chase Challenges

  • These challenges will be unlocked as you proceed in the game.
  • It is all about surviving the pursuit as hordes of zombies chase you.

  • There are five levels of difficulty in this challenge as you proceed in this challenge.
  • The longer you survive, the more XP you will receive for completing the challenge.

Other Fastest Ways to Level Up

Go For Side-Quests

  • Why do players complete side-quests? To earn additional XP and rewards.
  • In DL 2, these side-quests range from saving lives to helping a space chicken return to its spaceship. So, you are up against a pretty weird and strange range of side quests.
  • As you complete side quests, you will receive loot, blueprints, and points to increase your skill sets.
  • You will also receive an XP boost as you complete any of the side quests.

Earn Night-Time Bonus

  • Night bonus XP is the XP boost you receive as you complete any activity during the night.
  • That is because during these hours zombies become more dangerous and awry than the daylight.
  • In addition to the XP boost, you will also receive boosts to your skill sets.
  • But if you fail to survive the hordes, you will be unable to receive the night bonus for the rest of the night.

Loot Military AirDrop

  • Before you loot these military supplies, you will need to find them.
  • There are 26 military supply drops scattered across DL 2 and out of which 12 are underwater. Find and collect all the loot.
  • These airdrops contain blueprints, weapons, rare items, and looting them can reward you with experience points.
