Earn XP and level up

As is often the case in all Call of Duty, progression is essential in its multiplayer modes and is determined by the amount of experience points we get playing and leveling up . In Vanguard this is not very different from what was seen previously, the title presents up to three types of levels and XP and if you want to unlock all its contents as quickly as possible there are several methods that we recommend applying.

Please note the following:

  • How To Get Weapon XP :The best tips to quickly level up your arsenal.
  • How to Get OperatorXP : Apply these methods to increase Operator levels.
  • How to raise your account level :don’t forget to raise your rank to unlock all the contents.

Casualty streaks

The Rachas casualties are a classic franchise Call of Duty and, of course, Vanguard also brings their own to the battlefield so we can use and receive an excellent starting support. This time there are a total of 16 different streaks that will only be available to players who manage to kill a certain number of enemies without dying . Do you want to know them all in depth? We teach them to you.

Zombies

After a long time, the zombie Nazis have returned to the franchise thanks to Call of Duty: Vanguard . At its launch, the title has the experience of the Zombies – Der Anfang mode , which we can enjoy in the company of other friends to survive the terrible hordes of infected.

Since this is one of the pillars of the game, we have created an in-depth guide to give you the best tips and tricks when playing your games, and we also reveal all its secrets , such as where the sources of the rituals to activate special perks . All this and much more, do not miss it!

Advantage

From customizing classes of Call of Duty: Vanguard can use another year of different playable advantages ; what would be like the passive abilities that our character can have. Whether it is moving faster, making less noise, locating enemies on the minimap … There are up to 18 different advantages and we can equip a maximum of three at the same time. Without a doubt, it is worth taking a few moments to choose them, since they are very useful .

Field improvements

Field upgrades are another support tool that we can use during our games that are back this year at COD. In this installment we have at our disposal a total of 9 different ones and, you know, they all work as a kind of active ability that can be very useful at certain times (after activating them you have to wait for them to recharge). If you want to know them in depth , we will show you in this section.

Operators

Operators are the playable characters available in the multiplayer modes of COD: Vanguard. Some are the protagonists of the campaign itself, while others have been meticulously written to be part of the online campaign. Each of these operators must be unlocked by completing different challenges, they all have their personal story, their favorite weapon, and a lot of cosmetic rewards that can be obtained by playing with them and leveling them up.

At the launch of COD: Vanguard there are 12 operators available and these are divided into the following 4 task forces or squadrons:

  • Hellhounds Operators :Daniel Yatsu, Wade Jackson and Halima Zambardi.

Maps

Maps are the main attraction of COD multiplayer every year, and at Vanguard we have had a total of 20 maps at our disposal since the game’s launch(not counting the one in Zombies mode). This is the largest number of starting maps a Call of Duty has hadto date, so variety is assured. From fronts in North Africa, Germany, France or Japan, if you want to consult all the available maps and scenarios , their sizes and characteristics, you can do so here.
