Slowwwww leveling
Game is taking ages to get skill points you hardly get any xp for doing stuff and the amount of skill points you need is a lot! What’s the best way to gain xp ?

Scan all systems. Get the two perks to scan all planets in the system then scan-scan-scan. You can run away from pirates in most cases with a grav drive. Just don't jump into Kryx. Higher level systems give more scan xp.

You can also apparently make xp from outposts by crafting some junk, see youtube for that. Note that it might require outpost development perk.

Oh, and if you have zoology, you can build farms on high level planets then keep killing the animals. Though this one feels like cheating.

Go deeper into unsettled space, difficulty lvls go up and rewards get beter, increase the games difficulty lvl it self when you want to stay in the regular area

Either exploits or console commands. They leveling system is slow to pad the content.

I'm not sure what was your level, but if you are strong combat build, I suggest fighting in high level world where alien gave you lot of 100 xp each kill, assumed you had lot of ammo. Set easy game, would help save lot of ammo. hard or easy, it's still gave you same xp

Play the game. Do what you find fun, enjoy it.

IMO you level fast enough, and get enough skill points for your "build" early on enough.

Find a high level planet with 'abundant' fauna and kill the fauna for XP over and over.

Just be careful. Expect big framerate issues with moderate/abundant fauna planets lol.

And if you are not a "strong combat build" then sucks to be you, because Bethesda doesn't care how you make your levels. So you better go out there and start killing things and stop wasting your time doing literally anything else.

Oh and maybe crafting thousands of adaptive frames and other pointless materials you can't sell anywhere because no vendor has enough credits.

level 50+ with 60 hrs it doesn't seem that slow but surveying worlds and doing sidequests have been levelling me up quick
AnthraX Sep 25, 2023 @ 9:29am 
I’m level 30 I think after 30 hrs most it was messing around in new Atlantis doing daft quests I think I need to start killing stuff and building an outpost the quests give nothing

Get to ng+ and start killing the universe. (I was flying around to the major hubs and shot every spaceship. That levelled me pretty quick).

Just enjoy the the game......what's the hurry:steamhappy:

You don't really need a high level to play the game, it's super easy. If you're looking to speed it up so you can get more skills look into XP farming videos.

Know your sources. People say lvling is slow because they usually are relying on methods that are slow instead of exploring other sources of exp gain

the xp reward for alot of side missions is garbage unfortunately
which means you generally will get more xp from exploration especially pn higher lvl worlds
