While the Scoreboard was recently changed to Seasons inFallout 76, they still share one thing in common: they require players to accumulate S.C.O.R.E. to progress through the ranks. While completing daily and weekly challenges as they pop up will eventually get you through the Season, there are a few things that players can do to drastically speed up the process.
Because of the way that Seasons work, should the player reach rank 150, then they will be able to purchase unlimited amounts of rewards, such as Legendary Modules andLegendary Cores. So, getting to level 150 as fast as possible is almost a must for dedicatedFallout 76players.
7S.C.O.R.E. Boosters
Rank Up A Little Bit Faster
S.C.O.R.E Boosters are controversial inFallout 76.This is because players can purchase them, and this makes them “pay to progress” items. However, players will receive some S.C.O.R.E. Boosters for free upon ranking up through the Season.These boost the amount of S.C.O.R.E. that the player earns by 25% for 24 hours.
These boosters can be a great way to progress through the Season faster if used correctly. The daily reset time for challenges is 12 pm EST (5 pm GMT). So, if a player activates one of their S.C.O.R.E. Boosters at 2 pm EST, then they will be able to complete two lots of daily challenges with one booster.
6Don’t Complete Weekly Challenges Too Soon
Completing Weekly Challenges Too Soon Can Lose A Player S.C.O.R.E. Points
While it may seem counter-intuitive, players should do their best to avoid completing any weekly challenges when they come out. Weekly challenges come out at 12 pm EST every Tuesday. The highest value weekly challenge is the ‘Complete A Gold Star Daily Challenge 3 Times.’ This challenge requires the player to complete all the daily challenges for three days (unless the player is aFallout 1stmember).
If a player waits to complete the weekly challenges but completes all of the daily challenges on Tuesday and Wednesday, then on Thursday, they can activate one of the S.C.O.R.E. Boosters mentioned above andcomplete all the weekly challenges in one go for 25% more points.
5Look For Double S.C.O.R.E. Weekends
Progress Twice As Fast
Usually, Bethesda throws in at least one Double S.C.O.R.E. weekend each Season. This allows players torank up twice as fast.When there is a Double S.C.O.R.E. weekend, it will run from Thursday to Monday, so players should make the most of it.
S.C.O.R.E. Boosters stack with a Double S.C.O.R.E. weekend,making it a great time to use them should the player have any. It’s important to note that the event doesn’t affect weekly challenges. Weekly challenges will not offer double the S.C.O.R.E. that they usually do.
4Complete All Challenges
Obvious But Important
Some challenges can be a bit of a grind. Nevertheless,players should do their best to complete all available challenges before they reset.This is especially true if the player has passed rank 100. After rank 100, players will no longer be able to do the repeatable challenge: 100 S.C.O.R.E. for gaining 10,000 XP.
Sometimes, multiple challenges can be completed simultaneously, which makes the process much quicker and easier. Something else players can do to complete all the challenges is to tag them. It’s possible to add them to the player’s in-game view. This helps to reduce the chance of a player forgetting a challenge and missing out on S.C.O.R.E. Points.
3Only Re-Roll Weekly Challenges
Free Re-Rolls Can Be Very Handy
Similar to S.C.O.R.E. Boosters, Re-Rollers can be purchased from theAtomic Shop. However, players can also earn them. They can earn them through the Season menu. Players also get one free Re-Roll every day (Fallout 1stmembers get more).
Re-rollers do exactly as one would expect; they re-roll a selected challenge. This is good for getting rid of any tricky or time-consuming challenges.Upon using a Re-Roller, there’s a small chance for the player to receive an Epic Challenge.Epic Challenges offer more points.
It’s important to note that players should try to avoid using their Re-Rollers on daily challenges, as an Epic weekly challenge offers a lot more S.C.O.R.E. Points than an Epic daily challenge.
2Fallout 1st Or Season Pass
Progress Through The Season Faster
Most games these days have some sort of pay-to-progress or win mechanic. As mentioned in previous entries,Fallout 76has a couple of these mechanics. When it comes to completing the Season, bothFallout 1stand the Season Pass do the same thing. They give the player access to special rewards that aren’t available to regular players.
Fallout 1stcosts $11.99 per month, and the Season Pass costs 1500 Atoms (around $15.00 depending on the package purchased). In the special rewards, there are permanent S.C.O.R.E boosts. Once they have all been unlocked,the player will earn 25% more points until the Season ends.
1Use XP Boosters To Maximize S.C.O.R.E. Points
Grind The Repeatable Challenge
There’s one challenge that is repeatable, and it was mentioned in a previous entry. The challenge gives players 100 S.C.O.R.E. Points for every 10,000 XP they gain. This is the most beneficial challenge that players can do. While players will naturally complete this challenge through normal gameplay, there are things that players can do to speed things up.
There are lots of things that players can do toboost the amount of XP earned.Things like sleeping and eating certain foods can really help players rank up through the season much faster. Some of the best XP buffs can be seen below:
