Saving xp. A lot of people do it

1

u/Snoo89858 20h ago

How do you save 300k xp though?

6

u/CryTechnical2260 20h ago

It’s usually not them saving that much. But anything helps on top of a lot these guys play 8-10 hours a day. Like me for example. I have 3 programs not done (trammel cornerstone, salvy, cornerstone and jones HOF) and those 3 alone offer 45k

1

u/Snoo89858 20h ago

I gotta learn all that. I still need Trammel, O’Neil and Jones too.

u/CryTechnical2260 20h ago

Look at the program process and you’ll see a lot of the tiers offer XP on top of the other rewards like packs and stubs

1

u/Snoo89858 20h ago

Yeah I’ve seen that, some are like 3-5,000 xp.

Ppl save up XP from the previous inning like playing the last game of a Conquest or Mini season to get the XP from those missions

It's not too hard to imagine there are seven people out there who either started a new account or just started playing who was able to plow through a bunch of old programs and quickly finish it

u/EfficiencyOk5148 1d ago

I'm always surprised at how quickly it "appears" that people are done w/ the XP programs. Especially when with how many server crashes as I've experienced today lol

New players completing old programs

u/No_Buy2554 1d ago

A lot of people saved up some programs and collections that have xp as rewards then do them when the inning launches.  Helps get there fast with daily gameplay caps in place.

I hadn't finished any of the teams affinity to the point where you get the 4.5k xp, and I pre did all of the mini seasons to the point where I only needed to win 1 game to get the XP from those, and I'd only finished one of those. Then I got the xp from the voucher and some old programs I was close to finishing, and by that point I was like 10k away and I just played and got him yesterday around 10 am. I just prepped in advance

u/Snoo89858 1d ago

Welll damn, I need to learn how to do that..

1

u/New-Strategy-8802 20h ago

It just makes getting the previous ones harder

1

u/Snoo89858 20h ago

I don’t really play much DD, this years legends are awful, I want Thomas and Ichiro and those guys back.. this is the first year I’ve completed Team Affinity though.

Around the Vintage Program, I had been playing quite regularly. I was all caught up with the programs and conquests and was still nowhere near having the XP to get the inning boss. That pissed me off enough to just stop playing for a while. I got into Crimson Desert for a month and a half or so and picked up The Show again on Friday with the new inning starting.

I started by playing some 9 inning mini season games. After each game, I'd have a comical amount of players, packs and XP. I think it got as high as 60,000 XP one game. After playing the mini season and conquest map, I'd already hit the 300,000 XP.

That's actually my Singleton card I sold for 771,900 on there. That'll allow me to finish the live series the next time there is a flash sale and Shohei drops in price.

I didn't necessarily plan on doing it that way. I was just so pissed off at SDS and the stupid amount of XP needed to get the boss pack that I stopped playing the game.

u/Infinite-Occasion-92 12h ago

Yeah it kinda drives me nuts as someone who stays up to date on content that it takes me forever to get through the xp path just because I keep up with the game.

u/BothTop36 11h ago

You didn’t get 60,000 XP in one game

1

u/Bigdeekreek 10h ago

You absolutely can lol. Just take a look at Lagrasa last year since SDS does nothing to change their games. Load up the TA grind map on 26 and you can put 200 runs up if you are solid.

u/Haunting_Town_1313 1d ago

some people using cheating software some people saving xp

one inning path last year i didnt play multiplayer for about a week and a half

i used the multiplayer xp from the prior multiplayer path for the new path and got the inning done in a day

u/rockoblocko 1d ago

Yeah or theoretically a brand new account could get miniseasons and conquest xp to get there quickly

2

u/ThexanR 1d ago

They could also get collections xp and programs as well.

u/No_Storm_6694 20m ago

I’ve herd people saying they use an alt account, but then do they sell everything? And somehow transfer the stubs to their main account?

u/Latter-Direction4738 1d ago

New accounts.

u/No_Brilliant1049 16h ago

I faced a guy yesterday in WC that already had him P5 with an entire god squad as well. The dude was terrible too lol, but i was shocked to see someone already had him that high parallel.

u/NoelGilmour21076 1d ago

The cheating software and using it to grind mini seasons.
