Call Of Duty Black Ops Cold War How To Level Up Weapons Fast

Before players get to work on the trick, PlayStation users should consider partying up with a friend. One of many PlayStation exclusive bonuses in Black Ops Cold War allows players to get a 25% boost to weapon experience gained if they are in a group, encouraging team play. While Xbox and PC gamers, unfortunately, do not get this bonus applied, they can reap the rewards if they party up with someone playing on PlayStation via Black Ops Cold War’s cross-play feature.

From there, the trick to earning Weapon XP quickly is surprisingly simple. As highlighted by Call of Duty YouTuber PrestigeIsKey, simply playing the Fireteam Dirty Bomb game mode is the most effective way to rank up weaponry in Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War. The mode places players on a large scale, Ground War-sized map, and the high player count allows for plenty of kills. For whatever reason, though, each kill awards an absurd amount of weapon XP.

While some may not like Fireteam Dirty Bomb, fans hungry for quick weapon levels may fall in love with the XP provided by the mode fast. If players make sure to clean up their kills within Fireteam Dirty Bomb, as enemies enter a downed state like with Call of Duty: Warzone, they should fly through the weapon levels quickly. As mentioned by PrestigeIsKey, it is entirely possible to go through 6 weapon levels from just one game of Fireteam Dirty Bomb.

With Fireteam Dirty Bomb dishing out high levels of XP and partying up with PlayStation players providing an additional boost, Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War fans should have a smoother time leveling up. With these tricks in mind, it is just a matter of sticking with one weapon and racking up kills. Sticking with a weapon like the AK-74u SMG for the duration of the match should prove to be the most effective way to level up weapons fast, and sticking near the objectives of Fireteam Dirty Bomb is the best way to ensure a high kill count.

Perhaps Treyarch will make weapons level up faster in other game modes as part of the Season One rebalancing of Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War. For now, though, teaming up with a PlayStation player and racking up kills in Fireteam Dirty Bomb is the way to go for fast weapon XP.

Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War is available now on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X.
