Note: You do not receive experience for player-built escape maps. This will need to be achieved on Featured or Past Hives.
This is pretty straight forward. Play a game of escape and you’ll be rewarded class experience. A quick game of Escape on The Hive on beginner difficulty rewards about 500 class experience and takes about 10-12 minutes (with loading screens).
Playing on a higher difficulty rewards more experience. Finishing The Hive on Insane will reward you with about 2k class experience and (if you and you’re colleagues are experienced enough) will take about the same amount of time.
Here’s the kicker. You do not need to finish the escape to be rewarded experience. You will be rewarded for your time and efforts even if you fail repeatedly and then quit in frustration. Hence it will always be worth it to play on higher difficulties as your character levels up. I once received 5k class experience for a match that I never finished on Elite after failing repeatedly for longer than I care to admit.
Class experience for levels is as follows:
Level 1 - 100 exp
Level 2 - 500 exp
Level 3 - 1,000 exp
Level 4 - 1,500 exp
Level 5 - 2,000 exp
Level 6 - 2,500 exp
Level 7 - 3,000 exp
Level 8 - 3,500 exp
Level 9 - 4,000 exp
Level 10 - 6,000 exp
Level 11 - 8,000 exp
Level 12 - 10,000 exp
Level 13 - 12,000 exp
Level 14 - 15,000 exp
That’s a total of 69,100 experience. That’s 139 runs of The Hive on beginner, which at 12 mins a run will take about 28 hours per class. Based on that, I would highly recommend playing on a higher difficulty :)
Good luck, Hivebusters.
Edit: Added experience requirement for level 14 and updated calculation. |
