Hey everyone! I’ve noticed there are some new methods popping up for leveling up weapons, but I’m not seeing much for weapon XP lately. What are your personal strategies for leveling up your weapons when you’re playing solo?

I do public ESO runs for quick weapon leveling. It’s pretty effective and you get a lot done fast!
I mix up my methods to keep it interesting. For decent weapons, I hit Steel Path Survival, and for not-so-great ones, I usually just do Hydron or EDA public matches. It helps avoid the grind getting stale.
It really depends on the type of weapon you’re using. For melee or high damage single-shot weapons, I recommend using Ivara in Adaro. Go with a stealth build and use Sleep Arrow to maximize your damage multiplier—it’s a super efficient way to level up in one go! For fast-firing weapons, check out Fissures and Steel Path Selkie missions. And for weapons you don’t enjoy using, just stick them in a loadout and passively level them through mission objectives—sometimes I throw them on Wukong and do Spy missions for that passive XP.
For weapons that I actually enjoy, I’ll just play however feels fun. But if it’s a weapon I don’t like, I do some Survival missions on Gabii or Steel Path for quicker results. If I’ve really got a bad weapon, I do stealth kills with Ivara in the Plains of Eidolon—it’s more bearable that way!
I typically run Lith relics. They’re not the highest level, but I can breeze through several missions and still collect traces, ducats, or prime parts. It’s a chill way to handle leveling without stressing over it.
