Epic Games is attempting to make amends for the huge nerfs to XP gain in Fortnite Chapter 6: Season 1, but battle royale players insist that the leveling-up situation is "still awful."
Chapter 6: Season 1 kicked off last week, and while its new additions are generally loads of fun, the experience has been somewhat dampened by some significant changes to the ways to earn XP in order to level up and earn Battle Pass rewards. Namely, a reduction in the number of Fortnite quests, playtime XP, and harsher caps on the amount you can earn per week in certain modes means that leveling up has become much slower, to the point that some players say that the "game is becoming a chore" to play.
Clearly, though, developer Epic Games is aware of the complaints because it's now made a few alterations. One of the main issues was with the merge of Daily Quests into one tab – while you could previously complete a few dailies in different modes for loads of bonus XP, Chapter 6 changed this so that the first three completed in any mode would give you 60K bonus XP total – far less than what was previously available. This has now been buffed slightly, with news account @FN_Assist reporting that the first three dailies now award 25K bonus XP each for a total of 75K a day. That's, uh, not that much more, especially when you consider how much we could get from the dailies previously.
We've made several adjustments and fixes to XP across Fortnite!
