What Is The Point of "Levelling Up?"
Other than unlocking some stratagems, what is the point? You don't get HP, skills, talents, nothing. Highest unlocks seem to be at level 20, but max level is what, 50? Everything else is unlocked with medals not levels. The progression feels really lackluster imo. I am having a bit of fun with the game but a lot of the features just feel like fluff, they don't actually do anything or give a sense of accomplishment or progression. Maybe it's just me.

I think its an unfortunate side effect of tying a lot of the progression to the battlepass

Better stratagems

thell be adding more stratagems and stuff later which will most likely require a higher lvl than 20 so focus on getting your battlepass done and youll cap out in the process then youll be ready for when they add more stuff

It shows the time and experienced you accumulated?

Beside, as you've already pointed out, most guns/stratagems are gated behind levels and progression. That's what it is about.

Most of the guns/armors are gated behind medals. The strategems still require requisitions, the ship upgrades require samples, so levelling up really does nothing by the time you have enough requisitions anyway. It feels like fluff to me.

Sitting on 50k requisition cap, nothing to do with them. Feels bad. At least let us get something with them end game, like super credits, samples or the ability to negative one negative effect from the mission, or even use special boosters that are one use.

When you are past level 40, nobody will question your choice in stratagems. As they will assume you know what you are doing. (I don't)

Level 50 states that I have spread far more managed democracy than any lower level ...citizen.

After level 20 there is no point leveling up further. Instead your focus becomes leveling the ship or unlocking warbonds.

Really wish we had more to do unlock/do before hitting level 50. At the max level cap and all resources are max cap. All we have to do is farm super credits or liberation progress.

I actually play this from the soup kitchen and hand out cups of liber-tea to the homeless.
