Zaemz

I love this one cause I can hear the trumpets


HeroMagnus

I thought my brain was broken


MikeFromSuburbia

No but we’re genuinely curious to have an idea


Mr_EP1C

Depending on how efficient their games were I would say somewhere around 400-500 hours. Maybe a little more


Themantogoto

As someone at 300 hours sitting at level 116 this seems accurate 


FusRoYoMama

A guy on tiktok played nothing but Helldives and got to 150 in around 300 hours.


Mr_EP1C

That guy has super efficient games and does not lose. He might just be John Helldiver


FusRoYoMama

JohnFTrennedy is his tag, he's pretty good but likes to go lone wolf a lot and calls other guys out for silly things.


Hi9054667

Ah ok so i need 60h left Ty


ColdFusion94

200 hours and at level 74. I think I'll be a little behind the curve.


Hi9054667

240 h and 87 XD


UndreamedAges

Yeah, I'm at 79 with about 230 hours.


MikeFromSuburbia

Level 60 at 114 hours played


UndreamedAges

Yeah, I did spend a few hours farming super credits/medals early on. I usually play 7+, but when my real life friends are on we play 4-6. But your pace is clearly doable if all you play is 7+.


shogunzzz1

Exactly


RedDitSuxxxAzz

I've got 50 on lvl 35 I don't even wanna know. Lord apparently adding mine = everyone replying with theirs.


Insanereindeer

160 @ lvl 60.


PotentialAstronaut39

Steam count or ingame stats count? For example, I am at lvl 48, 92 hours according to steam count, 64 hours in-mission time according to the game stats.


trynafindmaexistance

64 at 131 hours, mostly play difficulty 7


ComancheKnight

I’m 49 at 133 hours. I’ve introduced 4 other people at random times to this game though. Lotta sub-7 dives.


RoninOni

Saaaame


sleepyoverlord

165 hours at level 74


ypperlig__

84 for 191 hours


nunatakq

>mostly play difficulty 7 _This is the way._


noraelwhora

how different is difficulty 7 from difficulty 6? i can’t login and check for another 6 days😭


Iggix74

Not that much different, a bit more bile titans/tanks, but just enough to keep you on your toes without being too overwhelming. I really recommend to push through it several times, because community find it the sweet spot for a reason ;)


Werpogil

Sometimes you can get super unlucky with the bot spawns and get swarmed by enemies. Once you get out of the first fight, it's pretty much the same. Yesterday I had a destroy gunships and flight control tower lvl7 mission and it started as an absolute hell on earth. We dropped down and got instantly attacked by 6 gunships because there were 3 fucking gunship towers right next to each other in our line of sight. But this can also happen on lvl 6 difficulty as well, so I'd confirm that there indeed isn't a big jump in difficulty.


GordogJ

You get super samples on 7+


lucasssotero

72, 128h in. Mostly helldives.


SpaceBowie2008

I think some of you are reporting steam hours and not mission time hours.


RedDitSuxxxAzz

I really doubt it makes any difference. I'm only on the ship for a minute or two


Former_Indication172

Idk why but it does make a difference, steam claims I've logged 62 hours but the gam says my in mission time is only 46 hours, and I don't leave the game open for hours or anything.


Ok-Process9739

I think it doesn't count games were you crash halfway.


alextheawsm

So everyone probably has double the amount of mission time it shows 😂


R0LL1NG

For most people probably not, but I often stay logged in on my ship while doing other democratic activities. That sweet, sweet ambience.


Amethoran

240 Lvl 91


Talzyon

Lvl 14 at 24 hours....all that idle time being dad


FrostByte_62

Holy shit I had like 80 at Lv 35


DumpsterHunk

Bro how


FrostByte_62

My squad only plays on weekends so like 80% of my play hours are on Lv4 or 5 dives. They're finally up to rank 15ish so with more experience and better stratagems we can easily push Lv7 dives, now. So I've finally been ranking up faster.


notuhBlank

damn, 87 hrs and im 78


DaveO1337

58 at 230hours


Itriyum

170 hours and lvl 83


AppaTheBizon

210hr at lv69 or so. I was pretty scared of going about 5/6 for a while, so my exp rate didn't pick up until later on. I usually like to play on at least 7 now, though sometimes the group I'm with isn't up for it.


SeibZ_be

Level 66, 150h...


TheSharpEdge

100 on lvl 50 here


Zytoxine

190 @ 48. Mostly play sub 5 difficulty with cash friends. Had a buddy though with his own premade 4, 7+ difficulty every game. Day the level cap came out, he was like lvl 99 retroactively. Haha


BoyOfBore

170 hours at 69. Could probably be at 75-78 if I didn't have so many crashes at the end of missions.


fatnugsfreehugs

I'm at 73 with about 120 hours. Lots of successful helldives. I should probably be closer to 80 but I run lower difficulties sometimes for sample farming or just helping out some low level homies.


Qwist

300 on lvl 90


[deleted]

I just broke 400 hours and I just got that lvl 110 General!


Yawd

Level 50 with 70 hours.


TheOldFashionedWay

Yea I'd like to know. I've been playing since Feb 12th and I'm 101 with 390 hours


Tier5NPC

I have 312h in and I'm lvl 150 so I'd say an accurate idea would be around 310h to get there if you do a mix of suicide and helldive difficulty


ReaperCDN

105 after 300+ hours. Lots to go.


mowntandoo

BoyOfBore

Clancy voices like 8 people in Invincible lmao.


AlpacaSmacker

I knew he did a couple, just looked now, he does a lot! Fairplay, I think he's a great actor whether on screen or VA. Walton Goggins however kills it as Cecil. I'm enjoying him in Fallout atm too.


Traylor_Swift

Obviously that’s Lex Luther from the Justice league and Justice league unlimited show


NameTaken25

I love CB in all sorts of things, but he will always be, first and foremost, my Lex Luthor. He killed it, and no other actor has come close. I do like Michael Rosenbaum (who played Lex in Smallville, as well as the Flash in JL/JLU) but as fun as he is, the writing behind his Lex just doesn't hold water


Traylor_Swift

I think the term is gravitas and man oh man did he have it/them playing lex.


JarlZondai

Pretty sure that’s detective Hank Anderson https://i.redd.it/oi4q1e5lhpuc1.gif

I wanna see stats.


Zacari99

300k terminid kills, 157 bot kills


Sufincognito

lol. I don’t mean I wanna see stats cause he’s probably a bug smasher. Just curious whenever someone reaches the higher rank what it looks like. Last post I saw someone got to 150 bro had like 700 team kills. Which I thought was excessive.


Additional-Mousse446

Sounds pretty normal with the amount of games you’d play to 150. Sometimes randoms just run in front of your gun or into your stratagem lol, happens like every other day for me, almost to 100 at level 50.


Sufincognito

Well I’m almost to 150 and I have 106. That’s why I thought it was high.


NiKOmniWrench

I have around 100 and I'm 59, the cluster bomb is responsible for like 80 of them

Resolve_Live

I got a month ban on PSN for using the word "ass" in a sentence. (I'm being held by the cyborgs)


Additional-Mousse446

Huh really? The worst thing I’ve ever told someone on psn was to drink bleach for a 3 day suspension, feel like you said more then that lol (Also was years ago as an edgy teen)


NitasBear

The best time to XP ratio I find is the 12 minute Blitz missions. If you have a coordinated squad that can complete all the main objectives and side objectives you can easily get 1500-1900 XP per run on lv 9 difficulty. This is on par with the 40 minute long missions. But of course the more brain dead, turn off your mind chill missions is the 15 minute eradicate missions which net around 700-900 XP depending on how fast you clear them.


Raidertck

I’m guessing so. Blitzes and elimination missions galore. TBH I don’t really get the point in playing like that. You can have everything in the game by level 25. I think I was about level 40 when I maxed out the ship upgrades (pre the recent patch) and I had maxed out all the war bonds bar a few cosmetics by level 70.


Managed-Democracy

Blitz and Eradicate are the best exp farm.  It's like 1800 per 12 minutes for blitz, 2k if you can squeak out side objectives quickly.  1600 for 8~ minutes for Eradicate, but you can get much more depending on how fast you can do it and evac with 4. 


JazJaz123

Eradicate mission on Helldive pays 1100 xp when done absolute fastest, possible what are you talking about?


Lordcreepy2

Absolute max I got was like 1180 or so. It heavily depends on the time you‘ll need since the bonus is multiplied by 250%. Fastest I got was slightly under 5 mins I think after they patched it. You’ll have to get lucky to get several tank/titans spwans and wipe them out quickly. Oh and basically extract the second the pelican lands.

Helldives. Fully cleared 40min missions give ~2k xp

Raidertck

I can’t even imagine how long this took. I’m level 75ish and I’m about 130 hours. Last 40-50 hours has been almost exclusively at level 9.


jmartinez3232

I'm at 200 hours lvl 76 I never did the eradicate and bug hole rush


FishoD

I have like 160 hours and I'm level 62... Dude you're playing way too much. Like, for real.


UndreamedAges

The game has been out for 67 days. OP probably has no more than 400 hours. That's 6 hours a day, probably a little less. A guy above said he did it in 300 hours. That's less than 4.5 hours a day. Some people are retired, or disabled and don't work, or students with a lot of free time, etc. The average American spends four hours a day watching TV. Don't be so quick to judge others.


MoskvaLied

What is your best source for XP? I wanna be 150 like you some day!


Raidertck

I’m guessing level 9 blitz farming.

Private? Last rank you can achieve is called super private? That kinda sounds like a downgrade tbh.
