It's worth mentioning that you can level up a weapon without using it. Say you don't like double barreled shotguns, if you have it in your secondary slot it will level up as you use your primary and sidearm.

When you reach expertise level 14 or so, you're going to hit a brick wall because you're going to be getting mostly duplicates of things you've already made proficient. Then it comes down to donating materials. But, before you scrap everything and donate the materials, see if you have a blueprint for the item you need to level up. Crafting an item and donating it whole gets you way more proficiency than donating the same raw materials. Also, don't use your scavenger points to get printer filament for donations. Use the points for credits. Then buy skill mods to dismantle for printer filaments. I'll use bigger numbers to make my point easier to see. Say you have enough scav points to get enough printer filament to get 60 proficiency levels. If you buy mods instead, you can dismantle them for enough filament for 72 proficiency levels. I don't suggest doing this all at once though. I know from personal experience that we're talking about 4,000 mods. That's 8,000 taps of the space bar or whatever controller button is used. But if you have 25 points, get credits and buy mods. There's no limit to how many skill mods you buy at a time. The game auto dismantles duplicates and gives you the filaments instead. I spent 17,000,000 credits on mods in one shot. It took well over an hour. lol...

The grind is so unbalanced, donate 100s of gear pieces and weapons to gain a point of expertise, and it takes 200 full points and after you hand over another truck load of resources you get 1% weapon damage, the loot drops and level up is the worst part of the game.

I went from 5 to 20 in about month by grinding Countdown and targeting 1 weapon type or gear type until I maxed it out by what I could update. I equipped skills, that weren't rank 10 to level them up as well as armor and weapons that weren't going to get to rank 10 through donating. It made some for crazy builds, but in countdown it's more workable than trying heroic or legendary missions. Because you can't donate skills, it's important to equip skills that are not max rank. When I got to expertise level 19, donating was done and now it was donating materials and equipping the pieces that weren't rank 10. So having a rotating 4th character to run Warlords of NY and get a fresh watch is essential.

HELPFUL TIP: You can bypass the Scavenged Skills directive by equipping a 4 piece Rigger Gear Set. Set it up for skill damage and the only requirement is to have the Backpack for the set equipped as it's sub talent allows an immediate skill cooldown whenever you CANCEL a skill. Example: Throw your turret out, let it do it's thing, and BEFORE the timer expires or BEFORE the turret gets shot, CANCEL it, and it will come back instantly.

Fastest way to level up expertise is to create 3 new agents in addition to your main charector and play through the New York storyline. At the end, after you defeat Keaner you're level 40 and are awarded points that you can use to purchase printer fillament and donate it. You have to share materials between each agent. Delete the 3 charectors and create 3 new ones and repeat until you reach expertise 25. After I reached level 25 expertise I kept the 4 agents and complete the daily and weekly challenges for exotics to level up my gear. Easy peasy.

When your expertise is 16-18 start boosting characters to get the purple printer filament or you cab run countdown if your shade level is to low, mark gear mods and those will deconstruct into printer filament. It takes 2000 printer filament to go from zero to 10 per gear.

It would be nice if handling/stability/accuracy and gear/brand bonuses also were impacted, but that'd break the game. I'm max Expertise on lots of items - SHD level 9k

Good question, Amber. Leveling up the expertise on your weapon will slightly increase its handling, and accuracy. But only to a small degree. It will mainly increase the overall damage. Increasing the expertise on your gear will increase your total armor by that percentage.

Fastest way to farm shd level is 5 directives, striker build with chatterbox, as you refill the mag after a kill, with gunner specialisation Farm execution and propaganda broadcast, I did 50-100 levels within 1-2 hours

I am shd level 11566 I am just getting back into the game. My expertise level is stuck at level 19. I donate so much gear but it’s not moving from 37/140. Very frustrating this expertise system is. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank You for any response.

If you make a video about how expertise affects accuracy and weapon handling im sure you will get a ton of views. That is a huge secret buff to expertise and everyone would love to know more about it. Literally everyone would watch that video.

Agreed. I thought it only increased damage on weapons.

Farming resource convoys??? They're worth half what they used to. The new fast farm is Public execitions, they're worth double the XP of convoys with 4 directives turned on. Now yes, they take a little longer to kill all NPCs, but only a little. Most of them are right beside a fast travel point and sometimes you can find two or three side by side. Taking out two public executions is worth more than a control point and can be done in half the time... Thank you for coming to my Ted talk.

Expertise is just there way of a lvl cap increase without actually doing it.

Just play the game the way you like it and dont worry too much about the expertise system. It is one of THE worst things added to the game and its main purpose is to make you grind and farm like a monkey. Just play and have fun. The rest will follow automatic. The 1 or 2% extra bonus you get from expertise is not worth the effort (note the expertise is calculated off BASE stats) For those who do want to invest in it, some things like weapons benefit more then others from it. First lvl up your favourate (exotic) weapons, then your skills, then vest and backpack. Everything else you wont notice any difference.

Great vídeo 👏 but convoy no longer the best way to level up fast, propaganda broadcasd, public executions, control points are the best. Control point heróic 4/5 directrives garanteed level up, propaganda around 400k+ XP and executions close to 500k XP, even if you do it in Challenging with directives the activies i mentioned are still the best way to farm levels.

I hate that we’re being told how to play, being punished for playing the way we like. Being “directed” to use certain skills and builds regardless of play style. Suicide modifier is all bad🚫👎🙅❌

I hate the expertise system, it's boring and slow. Also, why should I have to level items I dont ever use or plan to use, this is a wall that should not exist, especially in the DZ where the gaps between players is already broken. 😂
