What's the fastest way to level up character progression in 2025?

[Squatch]

I'm hoping to max out a few character levels before the shutdown to get the 150 gleamium to get 1 or 2 skins I don't have. I've looked up other guides and most of them are about using the rift minigame modes, but it looks like that was patched out. Others say to play bot games but that doesn't seem to give any xp either. Any suggestions or help would be very appreciated.

Winning games gives the most xp, but as long as the games aren't over in 30 seconds you should get more xp per game.

Try playing the final horde battle against the Tom and Jerry team in the second Rift of season two. Since it's easy to get multiple eliminations in a single match you can get more XP that way. Now, it takes a LOT of XP to level up a character at the higher levels but you can usually average around 150-200 XP per match. It's definitely the easiest way for me to build up XP without having to worry about going online, especially since you get more XP for a win in this rift than you do for a loss online.

Eliminations don't help you gain more exp, it's based purely on time in "vs" matches, even in PVE. It has to be against opponents in Rifts now.


The best method is to play on the easiest difficulty on the Rift where you beat up the security system in the Matrix rift, I forget which one it is.

EXP caps out after 3 minutes and it doesn't attack you or start spawning AI Shaggys until you hit it first. So when you hear that "1 minute remaining" warning, you just one shot the security terminal and repeat the rift again.

You can set up a macro to min-max and automate this if you really wanted to.

You should probably just wait until the game shuts down and WB is forced to give everything away for free in a final patch or the game is modded. Whoever is grinding for skins at this point is a tool.

Yeah, even with the final attempt at fomo, I'm not interested in downloading the game again. Quit in season 3 as a Reindog main because he was just so broken and they kept nerfing him, yet buffing his damn throw move you can't even do yourself and need a partner to even do it with as compensation for the 4th time.


It only took the game dying for them to finally buff (and fix) him. Saddened that I will never get to enjoy an actually fun technical character that they just refused to fix for nearly a year.
