How to level up faster | Development Heroes & Generals Guide
Last update: 11 May 2016
Advancing to higher ranks is associated with two things - wider access to various types of equipment (and most importantly - classes), as well as with higher Soldier Salary. You can, of course, use real money to buy gold, so that you can purchase a highly ranked soldier, unlocking a whole lot of items immediately, but not everyone can afford that. You can, however, speed up the whole process of experience points acquisition.
1. Complete mission objectives. Killing other players will give you satisfaction, that's true, but completing mission objectives (i.e. capturing / defending objective points on the map) will give you several times more experience points. A simple "defend" activity, which is killing the enemy who is trying to capture a control point, will give you an additional 60 experience points (aside from those earned for killing the enemy, obviously). It means, that it's worth to wait until the enemy starts capturing a control / objective point and then getting rid of him.
2. Level up your ribbons. You will be given bonus experience points for developing your ribbons. You can, for instance, try to "work" as a chauffeur and transport your teammates to different places on the battlefield, or focus on destroying enemy vehicles - there are dozens of possibilities.
3. Destroy enemy vehicles. Besides making the lives of your teammates a lot easier (and more miserable for your enemies), by destroying an enemy vehicle you will be able to earn immense amount of experience points. Suffice to say, that destroying a vehicle with several people inside (a common sight is a driver with 4-5 passengers), or a tank with two enemies inside will reward with you with the equivalent of several, if not tens of regular kills!
4. Shoot down planes. Use Anti-Aircraft guns and focus on shooting down enemy fighter planes. Your teammates, especially those controlling their own fighter planes, will thank you for that, and you will be able to get several hundred points of experience in the process.
5. Take enemies off your allies' backs. An enemy shooting at your ally will give you additional experience points if you manage to kill him.
6. Buy the Veteran account. Yup, if you want to play some more and achieve higher ranks, or to use the "General" mode, you will most probably have to invest some real money into the game in order to acquire gold. Buying the Veteran status for a month will cost you up to 15 bucks (which is the equivalent of a monthly subscription in most MMORPGs), and there's a whole bunch of profits coming along with it, such as 50% bonus experience gain (more on the Veteran status can be found in the appropriate section of this guide).
