With premium it’s as easy as it gets on my xp income.
As long as you play for the win and only care about 1st place, getting 10k base xp per matches will multiply to 30 to 50 k at the end with l the win/best score multiplicators.
It’s possible to no life a campaign with premium in a few weeks time with my calculations.
Hello there, just read the chat and just want to congratulate that u bought a year of premium and not having much regret after paying and able to progress faster.
I agree with you that the premium account is worth it as long you able to grind a lot in the game.
It is possible, I just hit day 15 progression today but i actually started my grind in Normandy Axis at day 4 or 5 because battle of berlin is pretty hard to play as Axis. My score is almost at top 1 - 3 and average exp is around 10k (conquest) to 20k (capture or defend) , I play for at least 4-5 hours per day and able to grind until level 20 with 7 days of premium. I do appreciate the double xp and orders I gain from each matches with premium time, however with almost every game i have to commit my hundred percent just to get better.
I find it very tiring and often burnt out from the game, until level 19 i get MG 34 where i can get better kills with MG squads and give a slight motivation to at least reach FG 42 unlock and maybe during that time I just gonna call it an end for this game grind (at this time positng i have about 7 days of premium left). I find that the grind is absurd and early game experience is absolutely crushing thanks to the one of few high end players in opposite side that has better equipment.
BUT compared to heroes and generals that punish you with maintenance cost after each game, this game is pretty much miles ahead than it.
I find dedicated, end game players few and far between, spread over two sides of four theaters.
Every player at campaign level 10~15 has most of the important tools unlocked and available to be competitive. Engineers, MGs, SMGs, planes, tanks…
Sure there are some better tools farther into campaign, but a bulled in the head means the same, no matter what gun it was fired from.
I play to get equipment to have fun. All I want is to have an auto sniper rifle and a BAR lol. From level 10 to 14 is woeful. I’m an average player my exp points usually range between 800 and 5000 on a very good day which is not too often. No way I am going to spend my time day in day out like this once I achieve my items. Because at the end of the day what is there to gain you are playing and doing the same things over and over. I just want my new toys and then I can stay at level 14 forever and upgrade what I have and be happy and forget the grind.
My update: Well I reached level 19 Axis Normandy. Too bad I also have the Allies at level 9. Bad mistake. Now I have only these two armies at any decent level but in same campaign playing the same battles over and over. What I should of done was picked one army in each campaign I wanted to play. For example I should of went Allies in Normandy Americans, then went to say Moscow and played Russians, then say Berlin and played Germans. I would have had 3 campaigns to play using 3 different armies. Playing all those different maps. Limit the number of preferred squads in each campaign and weapons thereby decreasing the amount of grind somewhat by just doing the ones I really wanted or needed. Gaijin have just made this game far more complicated than it ever had to be. For a start like armies used the same weapons, equipment and troop types both on east and western fronts. You should be able to use your German squads across each campaign same with Russia and not have to start from scratch except for any new soldier or weapon type. Grind is only there because Gaijin have bogged the game down with layers of repetitive upgrades. This is what takes the fun away, this is why people drop out. Big big disappointment for me is when I finally get to a level or item then only to find out I have another huge drawn out upgrade path to the next with experience points needed increasing getting slower to earn and upgrade items drying up or you find you get more of one type but less of another. This makes it even harder, for example I got to a level for Gewehr auto sniper rifle only to find the scope is less than the bolt action. Then I find I now get more soldier upgrade items than weapon upgrade items and I sit here with sub standard sniper rifles needing 16 weapons upgrade items for each one. No the grind is far too complicated and drawn out, reduce that aspect and people will enjoy the game far more. As for paying for premium, well do so if you would like to see your name at the top of the results more often. I enjoy playing but there is a lot of frustration and boredom with constant upgrades. Wish I had known more of the game at start so I could have planned better and not fallen into the grind trap as I said at the start of this. My goal now is to complete my Axis squad weapon personal upgrades at level 19 and I’m done. Will now choose a Russian campaign that suites my game play and play Russians. Too bad about the Americans in Normandy I will have to put on hold as I need new maps to play. Would have loved to have tried the Garand auto sniper rifle as I really enjoy playing with Garand. Best rifle for me to use as sights are more distinct. However I don’t think I can survive the grind to level 19 or 21 playing same maps lol
this is not war thunder
