Halo 5 - Is The Grind To Max Rank Worth It?

[@Oljen]

we need military ranks like halo reach to return instead of these number ranks. much more satisfying to get to 'inheritor' instead of level 152... lol.

[@declanday726]

So true hands down.

[@treyheywood3578]

oljen honestly. I don’t care about the label of it. What matters to me is the reward of it. And halo 5 has a shitty reward. But you do get something in halo infinite if you reach 152 in halo 5 which is pretty damn cool

[@elf-lordsfriarofthemeadowl2039]

Wow, thanks

[@Tyler_Harkins]

Unfortunately, no. I just hit 150 so that means I have a total of 26 million xp til I'm 152. The entire ranking system consists of 50 million xp so that mean these two ranks are more xp than 0-150 combined.

[@AlChestBreachFan7]

Tyler Harkins holy shit. Hitting 150 isn’t even the halfway mark. What is this, RuneScape?

[@lemmegetuhh362]

Fuck no way I’m ever getting 152 then

[@Espartanica]

Imagine if we do get a suit of amazing armor, plus an armor effect that can be toggled on or off for any wear, a nameplate, emblem, the full suite. Even special weapon skins, that no one else has the ability to get.

[@Tyler_Harkins]

@@Espartanica That would be awesome. But that's wishful thinking lol.

[@Espartanica]

Tyler Harkins I just feel like endgame rewards are never enough. There needs to be something to show for your efforts, something that others will want and something that you’ll appreciate. A reason to fight for it.

[@lordofshrek8994]

In all honesty I’m probably gonna grind firefight, slayer and SWAT. I would play regular war zone but the amount of sweats and shitty teammates just ticks me off to the point where I just leave. Like srsly is anybody else tired of being marooned in a base the whole game with like 7 banshees spamming the torpedo and tricks?

[@AlexGunn]

I love SWAT, but I can't grind it properly 'cause I keep getting bad teammates.

[@lordofshrek8994]

Alex Gunn. That’s the problem with H5. Your always on a bad team against a team who knows what they’re doing.

[@AlexGunn]

@@lordofshrek8994 It's the struggle for being solo player. My friends don't have H5, and my Spartan Company is not very active.

[@lordofshrek8994]

Alex Gunn. The only games my active friends play are fortnite (🤮) and bo4.

[@lordofshrek8994]

Dr DarkNerd lemme guess. They kill you for weapons and don’t know how to use them?

[@XGN]

100% Mastery🏅🏆in Halo 5: ALL Achievements/REQs/Commendations completed, BEFORE SR-152. Once everything is done, this when to take the Inheritor pack (152) = NOW you finish Halo 5 as a Halo God🔥🏅🏆. The number of players who achieve Halo God status (100% Mastery) in H5 lifetime is under the Top 1%. This is the Summit 🏔 of Halo 5.

[@XGN]

The best XP method is probably Firefight speed runs (complete every round in under 2 min each). I'd only recommend attempting this in Heroic - majority of the playerbase are not up for the challenge of speed running Mythic FF🔥

[@aubergineman2939]

I want the plasma turret to come back it's the best weapon ever clearly

[@darkspartan1573]

Nah the rocket turret beats it easily

[@EmeraldEdge72]

The fastest way to grind exp is to have fun and play warzone with your buddies and get wins. You get more exp for wins! The faster way is to grind Heroic Warzone Firefight daily. When I reached 152 I had a friend ask me how long it took. I said that it took about 3 months and he asked me if there was a faster route than warzone, and I replied warzone firefight heroic. From that day in July he came on and grinded daily until October in Heroic Firefight. I didn't know his schedule but it took him exactly 3 months. His gamer tag is Acremaster45.

[@squigsquig4381]

Haunted Seeker helmet is what we need

[@dangerranger3228]

I'm the same as you nick keep grinding mate all I can say is use those boosts.

[@seanfisher7707]

See here's the thing. I'm tempted to grind H5 to hit max rank, but then I remember how they handled my Helioskrill.

[@Jedi_Spartan]

I hope that Halo Infinite brings names back from Halo 3 and Reach (eg: Captain, Commander, Field Marshal, Forerunner, Inheritor etc) instead of just numbers

[@WillThessen]

9:52 I think I know what the series is... Where you face off different vehicles in an arena and stuff

[@sunlitstream2647]

Ubernick, tip for firefight: Use vehicles over weapons, the infinite ammo on vehicles is better than the limited ammo of req weapons. The best vehicles for firefight are scorpions,wraiths and depending on the mission banshees

[@nightlydata2181]

Do grind to Max rank warzone streams for a while

[@edgycat0181]

So you stream today??? At 9?

[@egirlcafemanager7119]

He is already doing it i think

[@Nonx47]

I'm on that grind too! Man is going to take me like 5 months, with a tonnnn of legendary xp boosts. Saved up my req points each time they had the warzone xp boost packs available, that mixed with my 400+ rare warzone xp boosts will get me there. When I did the math, if I put in an average of 4 hours a day grinding at legendary warzone firefight, it will take me about 4 months with my boosts from mid 149. We'll see though! I'd want the whiplash

[@jesterlefae3940]

To Grind or not to Grind, that is the question.

[@ytfvr9705]

Not to grind

[@thedev1lst0ne]

use ur xp boost req cards on firefight(legendary xp, AI kills, victory, random xp) best way to get extra xp since firefight games you'll usually win 99% of the time. Best vehicles IMO is a ghost in the first 3 stages and then a wraith in the last 2 stages. Best way to takedown the mech grunt is 2-3 shots to the the shielded part of its head once its destroyed a single shot to the exposed head from a dmr will take it down. Make sure most or all teammates are running in vehicles.

[@ThoomLord]

Griftball in reach was the ULTIMATE XP FARM. but they don't realy have anything like that in halo 5.

[@davidlindsay8937]

Heroic war zone fire fight is the best grind. Speed running it makes it go by fast too.

[@SpooxHalo]

Infection gives you about 10k XP per game if you win right now, probably better for XP than firefight

[@KrazyK-jt6vl]

If any weapon to come from 5 over to Infinite, it would have to be the S.A.W 'The Answer'

[@Kevageddon]

I think that you should get the halo 5 master chief armor in Halo Infinite if you get max rank. Just so they dont completely forget about the previous art style.

[@user-ej8md4gy2v]

Warzone Assault is fastest and secondfastest is infection. And remember to use the boosts.

[@WillThessen]

Swat is good for experience because the way it works is the first few minutes of a game you gain xp at a fast rate then it slows down so short games are the best for it

[@TonyRocs7]

I play FF a lot and I really enjoy it, been playing since it was added to Halo 5! I like to play Legendary most of the time but most of my friends want to play Heroic. I've rarely played Mythic, it's hard to find anyone that wants to play that. Maybe sometime I'll see you there. So GG's :)

[@concernedcitizen7399]

I legit play this and spin workout cardio...no joke I can't stand quiet or music focusing on my heart rate... I play H5 firefight and bike for 40 min in front of a 60in 4k TV on my 1X, then hit weights. # buffgamer

[@XGN]

Nick, you do realize that only the Top 1% of the global playerbase are Max Rank. This is about a few hundred players total, out of 900,000+ H5 players stats tracked on HaloTracker. Not everyone is meant to achieve everything . . .😎

I literally have my computer muted and I can hear the Halo effects in my head, such as headshots and deaths

[@lfgmagnetixx3228]

Quick Coring is also a good way to rank up, but personaly I wouldnt do that because it is kinda unfair... Tip: dont take out vechiles before you know whats coming next.

[@doctord3499]

Nick with some guessing for how much rank 151-152 xp takes added with the 3.6 mill u still need to get 151, it would take over 450 legendary firefight games with a legendary xp boost to get Inheritor...ill be praying 4 u🙏 Also a guy in the comments said it takes 26 million for 151 and 152, so my guesses were COMPLETELY off and it would take more than double what I originally said. We will miss you😭😭😭😭😢😢😢😢

[@CryoIsLazy]

Im at lv 148 and Mythic give u more XP for sure.

[@mat281]

Token of appreciation in Infinite so yes

[@notevanyoung]

Swat and mythic warzone are the best for xp

[@moonmantrashpit5789]

with the right boosts you could level up in a blink of an eye thus instead of taking a whole year to rank to max into only 5 or 4 months

[@ivanfreshfimbres7284]

I'm rank 78 😳 I'm still going though 😌

[@adamharford4142]

The way I see halo 5's ranking up is a grind and I have ZERO motivation for it right now, even if we get a bonus in Halo infinite I still don't care. (I'm rank 145 & 1/4 and think that if custom games granted XP I'd at least 149 by now 😋)

[@PossiblyAnIrishGuy]

Protip for Warzone Firefight: don't rush to kill bosses like you did with the Tankmaster. Since he's pretty easy to kill with a decent REQ, mop up some mob enemies to get more xp before finishing the round!
