Warzone Season 3 introduces plenty of exciting content waiting to be unlocked. So, if you’re eager to level up your weapon, rank, and Battle Pass within the game, here are some quick XP methods you should use.

Warzone Season 3 is underway, bringing new weapons, a fully-packed Battle Pass, and more free cosmetic content. You might want to get these rewards as fast as you can, and luckily, there are many efficient ways to farm XP in Warzone.

On that note, we’ll show you the best XP strategies to level up your weapons, rank, and Battle Pass fast in Warzone.

Fastest ways to level up weapons & rank in Warzone

Carry the weapon you want to level up in Warzone

You can get a lot of passive XP for your Warzone weapon by just carrying it with you. Even simple actions like opening chests will level up the gun. Don’t only use the weapon you want to level up for getting kills. Keep it equipped at all times, and the rank will go up without any effort.

Complete Warzone contracts

Some Warzone passive contracts, like Scavenger or Upload Intel, give you a lot of XP without needing to fight enemies to complete them. Have the weapon you want to level up equipped and do passive contracts around the map, and you’ll get a huge amount of XP.

Own Modern Warfare 3

Admittedly an expensive way to level up faster in Warzone, but owning Modern Warfare 3 will give you an XP bonus while playing Warzone.

Modern Warfare 3’s multiplayer is a quick and reliable way of ranking up as its action-packed nature allows you to get a ton of kills and XP. Plus, the Invasion and War modes are an excellent place to farm bots for easy weapon XP.

Use Double XP Weekends & Tokens

Activision drop Double XP Weekends throughout Modern Warfare 3 and Warzone’s seasons, and they’re the best time to play if you’re looking to level up.

Plus, you’ll be earning Double XP Tokens throughout the Battle Pass and for playing the campaign, so use them while deploying the strategies listed above and you’ll level up your weapons twice as fast.

Play with friends (PlayStation only)

As part of Sony’s Modern Warfare 3 benefits, PlayStation players who are in a party will earn 25% more Weapon XP than usual.

So if you’re on PlayStation, ensure you’re partied up with friends and you’ll be earning even more XP.

How to level up Warzone Battle Pass fast

Leveling up Warzone’s Battle Pass is quite a slow experience, so you’ll want to earn as much XP as possible in a short time. Modes like Plunder and Resurgence are faster-paced so you can gain XP a lot faster.

MW3’s Zombies is also great for leveling up fast, while any smaller map playlists are also excellent for getting through the Battle Pass efficiently.
