Experience Levels

  • When a unit gains enough experience to level, you can pay an amount equal to half of its base cost to level it up
  • A unit's HP and Damage are multiplied by its level. E.g. A level 1 Marksman has 1471 HP and 2271 Damage. A level 5 Marksman has 7355 HP and 11355 Damage
  • The max level is 9
  • If a unit is purchased at a higher level, the level up cost is paid in advance
  • All units can be purchased at level 2 if you have the Elite SPC Specialist or pay 100 for Elite Recruitment in your Command Center
  • Fangs can be purchased at level 3 if you have the Elite Fang Specialist
  • Crawlers can be purchased at level 5 if you have the Elite Crawler Specialist
  • The Marksman Pilot Specialist receives a free level 3 Marksman before the first round
  • The Rhino Pilot Specialist receives a free level 2 Rhino before the third round
  • A higher level unit gives more XP, level 2 gives 3 times the XP. The formula is Base XP * (2 * Level - 1)

Experience (XP) Gain Rules

Kill XP

  • The unit that gets the killing blow receives 50% of the XP
  • Only kills from weapon attacks will grant kill XP
  • Fire, acid, skills, and hacks skip kill XP and instead distribute 100% of the XP via Participation XP

Participation XP

  • Any unit, including hacked units, that hits with their weapon counts as participating. Damage does not matter
  • Hacking, even partially, counts as participating
  • Ground effects do NOT count as participating
  • Summoned units tag their summoner as participating
  • Hacked units will slowly get XP for themselves from participation
  • Participation XP is split equally amongst all participants, rounded down
  • Participation XP is 50% if kill XP was granted, otherwise 100% of the total XP if the unit was hacked or killed by skills or ground effects

XP Negation Reasons

In the following situations, after XP is distributed, the XP that a unit would be granted is zeroed out

  • Dead units, all XP gains are negated. Except when a Rhino uses Final Blitz, it still receives XP from the exploded units
  • Summoned units, all XP gains are not retained
  • Hacked units, kill XP is negated. Participation XP is unaffected which means that hacked units slowly gain XP for themselves
  • Units at max XP for their level, all XP gains are negated
  • Units killed entirely by skills and/or ground effects grant no XP

XP Gain Examples

  • Two Marksmen shoot each other. One bullet will hit milliseconds before the other which means one of the Marksmen gains 200 XP and the other gains 0 XP from being dead when their bullet hits.
  • A Vulcan summons a Marksman. The Marksman kills a crawler. The Marksman gains 6 XP, 4 from the kill, 2 from participating. The Vulcan gains 2 XP from participating via summon.
  • A Hacker hacks a Rhino while being assisted by crawlers that survive. The Hacker gains 200 XP. The Crawler gains 200 XP.
  • A Stormcaller with incendiary bomb leaves some fire on the ground. A squad of Fangs dies to the fire. The Stormcaller gains 0 XP since it did not hit the Fangs.
  • A Mustang hits a Rhino with Armor Enhancement and deal zero damage. An Orbital Javelin kills the Rhino. The Mustang gains 400 XP since it participated.
  • A hacked Rhino kills another Rhino that was partially hacked by a Hacker. The Rhino gains 100 XP via participation for itself, the 200 XP from the kill is negated. The Hacker gains 100 XP via participation.
  • A Rhino with Final Blitz is killed by a Rhino which is then killed by the Final Blitz. Both Rhinos gain 400 XP for killing a Rhino

XP Requirements
