How to Level Up Fast in Call of Duty Ghosts (COD Ghosts)

Last Updated: August 10, 2021

Leveling or ranking up fast in CoD Ghosts means unlocking high tiered weapons and rewards earlier than other players. Accessing these items will definitely give you an edge in winning online matches. Scroll down to Step 1 to find out how you can expedite leveling up in CoD Ghosts.

Method 1

Method 1 of 3:

Choose Correct Multiplayer Modes

1
Play Cranked. For players who prefer fast paced game modes with high experience points (XP) rewards, Cranked is surely the game mode for you. Every time you gets a kill, you also get a timer (30 seconds) before self-detonation. Timer will only reset if you get another kill. This eliminates the benefits of camping and definitely promotes fast paced combat - thus, more kills and XP.
- When you get a timer (cranked), you also gain perks such as Ready Up, Sleight of Hand, Agility, Marathon, and QuickDraw.
- You get double XP on every kill you get while you’re cranked.
- Remember, you cannot damage enemies nor allies when you self-detonate.
- It is advisable for you to use light weapons in this mode. Avoid using heavy weapons for this mode really requires you to move fast or you will be an easy target.
2
Play Search and Rescue. Based on a popular tactical multiplayer mode Search and Destroy, comes Search and Rescue. Teams take turn defending their spot on the map and players can also confirm or deny kills by collecting dog tags of enemies or allies. This mode offers more XP for kills and completing objectives so it is a mode truly for ranking up.
- In this mode, you get a whopping 250 XP for each kill. Not only that, each kill confirm/deny also rewards you 250 XP.
- Planting or diffusing bombs reward 500 XP.
- Unlike Cranked, this mode is very much tactical and does not require rushing in. So make sure you position yourself wisely and land those kills.

Method 2 of 3:

Strategize

1
Go for Buzz Kills. During online matches, you will gain more XP when you kill an enemy in a killing spree. That is called Buzz kill and it awards you with 150 XP.
- You can check the online game ranking to identify enemies who are most likely to be in a kill streak. They are mostly on top of the chart.
2
Use Easy to Unlock Kill Streak Rewards. Using or deploying kill streak rewards automatically grants you additional XP. That being said, it is advisable for you to have low-tiered kill streak rewards so that you can easily achieve them.
- Some of the low-tiered yet effective kill streak rewards are SAT COM, Guard Dog, and I.M.S.
- For beginners, since stringing kills can be a bit difficult, choosing Support Strike Package instead of Assault Strike Package helps.
3
Join Private Game Lobbies. Sometimes some players get together and setup their own private matches meant for boosting. Mostly, this is invite only but if you can get access to these lobbies, you will surely be having a good time ranking up with other players.
- You can also host your own private game session and invite other players to join in.

Method 3 of 3:

Achieve Extra XP

1
Pay Attention to Operations. Completing Operations in CoD Ghosts is a good way of gaining fast XP in no time. Some Operations are so easy to complete such as running 5 miles (8.0 km) while in marathon. How hard can that be?
- Make sure you have the right weapon or perk to complete your current available Operations.
- Switch around weapons early in the game for you to gain weapon related XP from Operations. The lower the level of the weapon, the easier it is to complete its startup Operations.
Field Orders are available on almost all of the online modes. Most players seem to ignore these blue suitcases but they don’t realize that completing these Field Orders rewards players a handsome amount of XP.
Sometimes COD Ghosts announce double XP weekends and that’s when online matches really go haywire! Imagine playing Cranked (which gives you double XP by default) during double XP weekend.

Can I earn ranks without playing online?

Question

Will I be able to increase my rank in COD Ghosts by playing local multiplayer matches?

Community Answer

No, you cannot do that. Local multiplayer by default has everything unlocked, which doesn't carry over to online multiplayer.
