XCOM, in which the player controls a squad of troops through different mission types. Players can also level up their characters in order to unlock perks and skill abilities that will further increase their squad's strength.
After completing the main campaign of Gears Tactics in around 25 hours, players may be wondering how they can further level up their characters. Players may have had their eyes on a particular skill that is farther along the skill tree or are looking to complete the most difficult of veteran missions. This guide will cover a couple of different tips and tricks players can use to farm levels in Gears Tactics.
Tips & Tricks To Leveling In Gears Tactics
In Gears Tactics, experience points are granted per enemy slain and not based on quest or mission completion. This means that players will earn more experience for hunting down as many enemies as possible while completing the campaign. With this in mind, players can easily farm up some experience in Control Missions where the player is tasked with claiming control over points. If players claim all the points but one, enemies will continue to spawn and the player can farm experience until they feel that they are in danger. Then the player just needs to claim the last point to complete the mission.
Once players have completed the campaign, their characters will probably be around level six or seven. At this point, players can also repeat veteran missions to earn extra experience. Veteran missions are tough tactical challenges that get increasingly more difficult. Players will need to reach the max level on characters to accomplish the hardest of these veteran missions consistently.
If after extensively leveling a character, the player feels that they may have made a mistake in their skill point distribution, they can opt to use a skill point allocation reset that is granted from story mission completions. These come in a limited quantity, so players should make sure they know what they want to change before choosing to do so.
Gears Tactics is available now on Steam, Xbox Game for PC, and Windows 10.
