50% Event Weapon Proficiency Boost on Infiltrations?
... i am pretty sure this is as fake as fake goes.. put some catas into some weapons cause of this .. without any Boosters of my own my character is Lvl. 40 during infiltrations runs while the weapon only reached 26.
Anybody else realized that the announced weapon boost aint working?

Weapons don't get the completion exp, that's why.

If you look at the rewards for completing an infiltration, it shows a gold and exp amount. That exp is only descendant exp, so that's why your weapon is so far behind.

Mob kills is where weapon XP comes from. Block Kuiper Mine spec ops is one of the better places to farm weapon XP, using a char that doesn't need a weapon. Bunny, Valby, or Luna.

If wanting to lvl launchers, shotguns, snipers, or beam rifles The above is the best way to do that.

Asylum Infiltration is way better than Block Kuiper Mining for leveling weapons while the event is going on this week.

I think it's still a little faster to do Viessa/Valby void shard abort-mission resets though.

Inflitrations unless running a high end high-voltage bunny requires using a weapon.

Block Kuiper Mine you don't need a high end build.

also if you want 100% xp for your weapon it needs to be in your main slot (top slot) any slot under it only gets 20% xp

yeah leveling up weapons is far more onerous than leveling up descendants IMO.

The problem is that even with 50% bonus, the total amount of xp in infiltration operations is still overwhelmingly less compared to Kuiper Mining special operations.

But infiltration operations were never meant farming xp (special ops are).
Just like how special ops were never meant for farming void crystals (void fragment missions are).

The xp bonus is nice for people who want to farm for patterns or other stuff in infiltration operations. But it cannot compare to Kuiper Mining.

Still find bouncing around in the Bunny cave a lot faster and more convenient than running through a whole Infiltration though. You may get more exp for an infil but it's also a lot more work.

Useless experience. Added experience for descendant, but only Bunny can close dungeons.
The rest of the descendants can't. The developers are laughing at us.

Upvoting these suggestions
Also Fortress Defense Line Chill Void shards, if you are levelling up Hailey along with weapons - as hailey can't do much in Kuiper Spec Ops nor in Vespers XP Farm spot.

IMO Void shard abort-repeat is a bit boring, you could doze off, but it defo is fast; Can't say the same for bunny cave (Vespers -Moonlight Lake and Fortress - Defense Line are faster than this)

You're just objectively wrong.

With the event bonus, the Asylum infiltration is significantly more weapon xp per minute than BKM.
