Ranks & Progression

You earn XP in multiplayer matches to climb 100 ranks. Ranks unlock weapons and operator gear. Kills with each weapon unlock its attachments and camos, and long-term achievements unlock gear you can't get any other way. Zombies has its own separate 100 levels.

Progress only counts on official (ranked) servers. Matches on community servers and anything in the Firing Range don't count.

How you earn XP

Action	XP
Kill a player	100
Kill a bot	30
Headshot kill on a player	+25
Headshot kill on a bot	+8
Assist	35
Confirm or deny a tag (Kill Confirmed)	25
Medals	The medal's score (a third of it when the victim is a bot)
Match challenges	200 to 900 each
Win the match	400
Finish the match without winning	150

• The win or finish bonus is scaled by how much of the match you played. If you played half of it, you get half the bonus.
• If you leave before the end, you keep the XP for your kills, assists and medals, but get no win or finish bonus.
• A match pays at most 8,000 XP, with at most 4,000 of it from medals.
• Matches shorter than 20 seconds pay nothing.
• In team modes, you count as a winner if you spent at least half of your match on the winning team.

The end-of-match screen shows each line of XP you earned, your rank bar and anything you unlocked.

XP events

Odd Omens sometimes runs XP events, such as a Double XP weekend. During an event, match XP is multiplied by 1.5, 2 or 3. A banner on the Play tab shows when an event is live or coming up. Events boost Zombies XP too.

Progress you can't lose

Every kill, assist and medal is saved as it happens. If you disconnect mid-match, what you earned is credited straight away. If a server restarts, your progress is credited when it comes back.

Ranks

There are 100 levels, in 24 ranks from Recruit to Legend. Each rank has its own insignia: chevrons and rockers for enlisted ranks, bars, oak leaves and an eagle for officers, and stars for generals. Most ranks span several grades, such as Sergeant I to Sergeant IV.

The early levels go quickly: level 2 takes 400 XP and level 10 takes 6,850 in total. The last level alone takes 36,750 XP, and reaching Legend takes 1,258,650 XP in total.

When someone reaches a streak of 10 or more, everyone in the room is told. Your medal totals are on the Career tab under Medals.

Match challenges

Every match has three challenges, rolled at random in the lobby, such as "Get 5 headshot kills" or "Kill someone with a knife or axe". Everyone in the room gets the same three, and progress is your own. They show in the lobby and on the scoreboard. Finishing one during the match pays bonus XP (Zombies XP in Zombies).

Pistol kills include the P-9, the Judge .44 and the Wasp MP. Achievement camos are uniform camos for your operator, not weapon camos.

Weapon progress

Each weapon has its own kill count, which unlocks:

• Attachments for that weapon, from 5 to 300 kills. See Attachments.
• Kill camos for that weapon, from 25 to 1,000 kills. Gold at 600 kills marks a mastered weapon. See Weapon camos.

The Career tab's Weapons section shows your kills with each weapon and what it unlocks next.

Operators

On the Operators tab you build a soldier for each team: Task Force Vanguard, a coalition unit in woodland and multi-terrain camouflage, and the Raider Brigade, desert irregulars in sand camouflage and red berets. Your team color always shows on both armbands and your headgear.

Looks never change your size or hitbox.

Zombies levels

Zombies is ranked on its own, with 100 levels on the same XP curve as multiplayer ranks. Nothing from Zombies counts toward your multiplayer rank, stats, weapon camos or medals, and multiplayer never counts toward Zombies.
