REDSEC demands more than survival, because following the right loop is what really powers your level and gear growth.
Make sure each match pays off by securing XP and enough supplies to fuel future gains. Here’s how to do that in full detail.
Mission First, Loot Later
Right after deploying, one of the fastest ways to gain meaningful XP is by targeting in-match objectives.

These include contracts and missions scattered across the map. Pick up a close contract right away to earn XP and potential rewards, and stay prepared for the mission to start.
You’ll earn more from missions than from normal kills, with chances at rare gear, a Custom Weapon Drop, or useful call-ins.
If you spot a mission marked as “Counter” (triggered by another squad), consider engaging that fight for elevated rewards.
This simple flow of contract to mission to reward drives the tempo of each match.
Pick Up the Case
While you’re moving between objectives, keep an eye out for Intel Caches (marked with a “?” icon).
These unexpectedly deliver Career XP across your squad and also help move your class training path along.
Even a small detour to snag one can improve your overall reward for that match. Over multiple games, these quick grabs translate into steady progression.
Weapon Kits Are Silent MVPs
Progress comes not just from new guns but from strengthening the loadout you’ve built.
Weapon Upgrade Kits pop in chests and drops. They allow you to bump rarity tiers, insert new attachments, and steer a gun’s stat line (for example, favouring speed vs. magazine size).
Upgrading a weapon means that your future kills with it become more effective and, by extension, more XP efficient.
Spend the kits as soon as you get them so you can keep upgrading, winning fights more easily, and earning more XP.
Lock In Your Main Weapon
Your favorite build becomes your literal enemy-sweeper when you grab a Custom Weapon Drop.
These drops allow you to deploy a preset weapon setup instead of taking whatever loot you find.
Because you’re using a weapon you know, your performance improves, which means more kills, more assists, faster mission clearings, and better XP gains.
These drops are often contested, so be alert when you see a pod descending.
Learn the Loot Hierarchy
You’ll find plenty of containers scattered across the map, but Class Chests are the ones to chase because they deliver class-focused items such as LMGs for Support or drones for Recon, improving your impact in a match.
With a Repair Tool, Engineers can open Locked Vaults and secure rare equipment for the team.
It’s smart to search parked vehicles because some offer extra gadgets or ammo.
The better your gear, the smoother your kills and objectives, which makes the XP and loot wheels turn faster.
Use Gauntlet Mode When BR Slows Down
If your Battle Royale match feels slow or empty, hop into Gauntlet instead.
This mode is built around fast-paced missions in smaller zones.
Each run lets players rack up objectives, kills, and loot, and keeping the Gauntlet active means action stays constant without long waits for the next fight or circle shift.
It keeps your XP rolling when nothing else does.
Exploit Class Strengths and Perks
Classes matter mechanically, guiding your role, loadout setup, and path through Training Path progression.
Each class (Assault, Engineer, Support, Recon) earns perks as you level them.
For example, Assault excels at taking ground, Engineers deal with vehicle threats, Support handles supplies and revives, while Recon manages spotting tools and long-range pressure.
If your squad intentionally spreads roles and plays to those strengths, you’ll complete more objectives, survive more fights, and consequently earn more XP and supplies.
Prioritize Clean Squad Finishes and Protect Revives
Killing enemies helps, but wiping out a whole squad gives way more loot and XP.
At the same time, reviving teammates prevents resets and wasted time, and smoke grenades can make those quick pickups much safer.
Dead squads mean cleared loot zones, faster rotation to the next mission, and fewer delays. Better team performance naturally accelerates progression.
Forget Old Bot-Farm Tricks
Earlier farming tricks like bot lobbies and exploit servers are now largely shut down.
The official updates emphasise valid gameplay loops (missions/contracts/loot) rather than idle XP farms.
Understanding this keeps your attention on valid payoff and stops unnecessary time loss.
While it means progression may feel slower than exploit-heavy farms of the past, it also ensures you’re improving both skill and loadout.
Take advantage of it to gain strength and speed.
Season Rewards Are Worth It
Since Season 1 launched (alongside the map Fort Lyndon and other content), timed events and challenge rotations offer bonus XP and supply opportunities.
Participating during these windows gives extra leverage (new weapons, attachments, bonus tokens).
Plan your sessions to align with these windows and you’ll get extra value for your time.
