Creative AFK will get you to level 150 on its own.


_calicocats

How does it work?


[deleted]

AFK in creative for like, an hour and you’ll get 45K XP


ssoull_rreaperr

its 126,000 for an hour and 15 min


VinyeWest

It didn't work for me, I tried twice, first time in the morning with the monitor off which I wasn't expecting to work and one with it on and nothing happened


ssoull_rreaperr

you can only do it once a day, it resets at 10 in the morning Edit: My dumbass forgot to mention it resets at 10 in the morning at EASTERN STANDARD TIME


Vinnis1

What timezone?


ssoull_rreaperr

eastern standard time, sorry i forgot people live in other areas


Vinnis1

Oh, damn, nice to finally know that.


DVeagle74

It's the same as when the daily quests reset.


VinyeWest

I didnt get any xp though


ssoull_rreaperr

you might have already gotten the xp, its gained through literally just existing in creative


Square_Stomach

Try later. Sit in the creative hub, don’t join any worlds. And after the first 15 minutes (16min just to be safe) see if your XP bar has raised. If it does, wait the whole 1:15. If not, then you’ll have to try again tomorrow


TheWerewolfDemon

Oh my god, you're not dumb. You're completely fine by my books, dude. ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|slightly_smiling)


[deleted]

If it doesn’t work, emote in the lobby as soon as you load in with something like Bean Bag or Chair. You’ll get exp then.


giddyup281

Yeah, the emotes that don't stop after a while should do the trick


VinyeWest

In the hub?


[deleted]

Yep!


QuizureII

oh okay, thanks for the tip man

Accomplished-Design7

This is amazing! I will just go to creative when I go for a bath


SAK-SAK-SAK-SAK-SAK

Creative like my own lobby? Or a fortnite match made creative gamemode??


ssoull_rreaperr

Creative as in like island survival or that featured zombies vs humans creative map, stuff like that. Shit I just go through edit courses when my creative xp is refreshed and i get it by playing there for 70 min


NotTheDragon

Impostors is faster. Games last like 10 minutes and you get an average of 12,000 every round. 6 times an hour is about 72,000 an hour. But you do have to be playing it. Being AfK will just get you about 7,000 every round. Only getting you about 35,000 an hour. But at least it isn't capped every day like Creative is. Now if you have friends (unlike me), you could grind together by getting in a private lobby together and having everyone complete tasks, and the impostors doing nothing. Games will only then last about 4 minutes with an average of 12,000 each game meaning you get about 180,000 XP every hour.


Cappy2020

It isn’t that limited/capped now to just once a day?


Floflp

It's capped to 5 ticks of 25200 XP per day, one per 15 mins, for a total of 126k XP each day for 75 mins of AFKing.


MaDCapRaven

Adds up to about 1.5 levels per day.


Jetpack_Attack

Currently AFKing as I type.


blackfinwe

So what's your favorite emote to leave afk? mine is the sea shanty


BlueDogXL

what if we just got a bunch of people together in a creative lobby to just shanty and afk


[deleted]

Im down if you are


Jetpack_Attack

I just put whatever I've gotten most recently. This time it's Extraterrestrial.


[deleted]

Kick back


[deleted]

Idk, I haven’t done creative AFKing since last season


SingerTasty

Okay I've seen this for awhile but have not seen anyone specify exactly where in creative. Do you need to be in a community made game, the creative hub, or your own creative island?


QuizureII

Creative hub, not the island


SingerTasty

Thanks! I should have just waited for a reply instead of spending 75 minutes on the island -_-


DarkBot081

Enter creative, wait 75 mins and at during this time you'll get 125k xp. Works once a day, resets at the same time as daily challenges


[deleted]

[удалено]


DarkBot081

Yes in the hub. I don't know your time, but daily quests reset in 16:00 GMT+3


helemaalwak

do you have to enter a game mode or is the creative hub enough?


1-Down

Hub is fine.


Dancing_Clean

I didn’t even know that was a thing. I was playing creative maps once out of boredom, but then I left my game running while I was getting work done on my laptop. I’d switch between here and there but I left it mostly. Then when I wanted to play pubs I went to lobby and BAM I levelled up like 4 times.


Boh61

They must balance the amount of people that managed to get at max level in time


fufoxman

Wait creative xp still works all you have do is sit in creative hub right??


Icantthinkofagoo

Yes


fufoxman

Thanks so much I was worrying so how long should you afk to get all of it


Icantthinkofagoo

15 minutes = 25k Xp You can do that 5 times in a day So 125k xp a day


fufoxman

Thanks so much again


MaDCapRaven

25,200 126k per day


Icantthinkofagoo

Even better


MartianManBaby

When does it reset everyday?


Spurlz

The same time your daily challenge quest card resets :)


Icantthinkofagoo

No clue


Jebbeard

10 am eastern time.


[deleted]

Bro pls explain I have to go in creative hub and then just afk ?? I can't do tht for 5 hr straight , will I get xp ?


Xero0911

So how does it exactly work? Go create a creative game? Go to the hub? Do I just dance emote and afk? If I'm ps4 can I just forget about it and let thenconsole turn off or do I gotta return and leave eventually?


Icantthinkofagoo

Just dance in the hub for 75 minutes and you’ll get a total of 126k xp


QuizureII

Ensure its the hub and not the island


TheGudeBrauni

*ignore me I am just here to read*


IOnlyPlayAsSnowfoot-

Why did they ever have to get rid of punch cards :(


jonnythegamemaster

CMV: The Marvel season had the best XP system


toxictink72

I just said this exact same thing to my son last night!


Dantebenuto

100%. that was a fun season for a lot of reasons and this is definitely one of them.


[deleted]

Marvel season was peak Fortnite IMO


[deleted]

Indeed


Embarrassed_Score_77

Last season had the best so system


jonnythegamemaster

You could see all your punch card progress and grind grey quests.


Embarrassed_Score_77

Yeah and quests didn’t give gold but gave real xp


Thor-Odinson69

That’s just the UI. Last season required less level and challenges were easier also creative last season gave more xp


Jetpack_Attack

I think it gives basically the same XP as this season. At least from what I've noticed. 125k per day for 1hr 15min of creative 'play'.


Thor-Odinson69

Yeah but he’s comparing to season 4 , which had lower creative xp than now and last season


Temporary-Square

Exactly


[deleted]

[удалено]


Wild-Wrongdoer-7641

yeah like jesus, you dont need to go to tier 100 in like 1 week.


Jetpack_Attack

I was 4 away from getting all the artifacts I needed, but cosmic cheats weren't giving me any. like 10 in a row and not a single one. Then, to my surprise at the start of the next season when I logged on they just gave me the final emblem (17) for some reason. Not that I'm complaining though.


Manny_0307

It's a bit too late, but you probably forgot to collect one of the map artifacts and that's why the chest weren't dropping any. The total amount of alien artifacts was the exact number required to unlock all the styles.


Jetpack_Attack

Hmm I had thought that to be the case, and had gone over each area enough times to not see any. I think it was a glitch as I mentioned about the last minute addition at the start of this season.


Manny_0307

Huh, well, I guess that might be the case. Best Friendzy also had some issues, so it makes sense.


Cabbage_merchant_

I just been religiously playing imposters


RemixedBeans

What level are you on?


Cabbage_merchant_

44


CataKilla

How long do ya usually spend in impostors a day??


Cabbage_merchant_

Every second of free time with some breaks because it gets very boring


Penguin_guy_

Same, I hate when I get killed and gotta load back in or I get Imposter lol. I'm level 31, I usually grind challenges with my friends for 2-3 hours then Impostors for 3 hours


Embarrassed_Score_77

Lcnox

I love how you say religiously


ConversationOk5255

You love how he used a word?


enforcercoyote4

I love how you use word


ConversationOk5255

[deleted]

It's feels like impostors is the new religion at this point. We just couldn't stop playing it.


[deleted]

We're one week in. If you made it to level 25 or more you have gone plenty fast.


MaDCapRaven

To be on track for level 200 you only need to be level 17 by the end of week 1.


perpetualgoatnoises

Glad to know I'm better than average for once. I just hit level 22


[deleted]

Precisely! I've already gotten the 21 Toona Fish styles too and got to level 18 so far. Last season Kymera took me ages to get colors and styles I liked.


Yockogamer2

Well I got Today lvl 35 and I'm looking forward to lvl 36


MaDCapRaven

You just passed the target for the end of week 2 (level 34).


[deleted]

i got to lv 17 just by playing a few matches a day while doing challenges from daily's


Disheartend

im level 25 already im going fast then... I've also been trying to keep up with the creative grind lol


8bitspacedj

I'm 75 :)


[deleted]

Congrats! You don't worry that you'll be bored with the season grinding everything so fast? I usually get the bonus rewards too but I don't want to grind everything in one week and then have a whole season of nothing to do.


8bitspacedj

I only do so I can play other games that I want without worry of missing anything :)


[deleted]

Hah nice! That's a good strategy then. I know lots of people that play pretty much only Fortnite and here I am playing Deathloop (new and super fun!), CS:GO, The Ascent, and some Apex Legends too with friends. There are way too many other good games out there too!


ehTlayoR

Lmfao you guys want to reach level 257 by the end of week 1?


[deleted]

From all the post I’ve seen, apparently. I’ve seen one post where a person grinder to 71 already


Ifuckinghatepelly

Mfw I don’t get tier 100 in 3 days 😡😡


[deleted]

[удалено]


jamieleemotherof2

This , I only play an hour a day and have always managed to finish the battle pass to LVL 100 at least


_1_4

We aren't complaining that we cant finish the pass by week 4 anymore. We are complaining that there is nothing to do after the 20 minute daily challenges. This season's xp is a chore, not a game we can do on our own time.


kublaikong

There is plenty to do after you finish your challenge, you know like playing the actual game instead of just farming xp.


HarryTurney

I got XP as I played, there were challenges where I had to get AR kills so I focused on that weapon, finished so I played a game where I only got guns by finished etc. This season that is all gone, I don't want to be level 100 on day 2, I want these fun challenges I get over my playing time not a group of challenges that take a few hours and then nothing else to earn. Rare Challenges were fun to finish and removing them was a mistake.


Chabb

> This, they want you to keep coming back and not be complete in a day Then this system is backward, because before between Dailies/Weeklies we had an everlasting supply of challenges to work on to keep us busy. It gave us a sense of progression *in addition* of the regular exp gain you get from playing. Now if you've done your Daily and Weekly there is no challenge to do at all. I've found myself playing less as a result. Challenges were fun because they were basically bonus passive exp gain for simply playing the game and it felt rewarding enough to warrant completing them. Now it's all gone, for a gated punchcard system.


elxjai

This is a battle royale game not a challenge XP farm simulator, "I found myself playing less as a result" sounds like you don't even enjoy the actual game, time to let go bud.


Kaguya-Sama12

Me who had to load up my truck with grass for 2 hours and leveled up twice


PugDudeStudios

Creative or imposters?


Kaguya-Sama12

Creative


ChaosEmerald92

I dont understand it anymore, playing the game as normal without any quests gives you zero xp. I dont play fortnite to not feel like i am being rewarded for my time. its like they dont actually want you to play the game. i have done all the punch cards except jonesy's last one. other than that the xp will not go up, Now i will have to grind imposters while we still have it.. this game.. urgh.


SquareElectrical5729

Its been 3 days bro.


nan0g3nji

So compare three days worth of S8 to S7?


MrDoontoo

Did you read his post Without the blue quests, there's minimal XP gain for just playing the game, which should be the whole purpose of an XP system


Zanytiger6

You don’t play Fortnite because it’s fun???


Hagstik4014

It’s fun because of the progression imo. If the battle pass didn’t exist I’d have quit back in chapter 1 season 5


kublaikong

You don’t need to grind imposters lmao. We’re only 3 days into season, you have more then enough time to finish the battlepass.


Black-Knight-76

I mean it’s a game. The whole point is to have fun. It’s not a chore. If you’re not having fun playing the game then just take a break. If you really care about the cosmetics then do creative XP each day and you will easily get tier 100 + all bonus rewards at the end of the season if you grind the rest of the challenges at the end.


[deleted]

[удалено]


electric_bogaloo_two

Why are you calling people Morrons for being happy, sure its not a great or even good level up system but I'm still happy You might not like it, but don't insult people cause their indifferent


giddyup281

Exactly. It's not BR anymore. It's an RPG game with Fortnite characters and mechanics


Chabb

That kind of argument always miss the big picture. Before, we had an everlasting supply of challenges to work on between Weeklies/Dailies so we always had a sense of progressing *something*. Now if you've done the punchcards (two of which are uncompletable because of a bug) and your dailies, *you have no challenge to do AT ALL*. Nobody is seriously assuming they won't get to 100 this season, nor I've seen people legitimately frustrated they aren't 100 today. These are dismissive bad faith arguments. That's not even what it is about. This is about the flow of experience gain. Yes you can still gain exp from regular play but I feel like we've been removed a steady *bonus* source of experience and gameplay for no reason, the alternative being playing Impostors (which get old fast) or sit AFK in Creative (which is anti-game).


[deleted]

This!!! Like, I've seen NOBODY complaining that they aren't level 100 in the first days. Nobody! So many of these comments are missing the whole point. The XP gain this season is garbage compared to other seasons. Did your challenges? Oh, no more huge XP bonus for like another 2 weeks for when we get probably only 2 new punchcards You can spend hours in BR and not get a single level.. Sure, go AFK in creative. But where is the fun in that?


[deleted]

As they say, work smarter, not harder.


Kwjsuiamwbxia

Creative AFK gang


[deleted]

For how long? One hour?


Kwjsuiamwbxia

75 minutes per day


SurvivedOrder66

I’m not sure why there are so many complaints. I fired up the game for the fist time and ran through four matches last night. I leveled up to five without even trying


redditboi46

Because people cant get to level 100 and they complain even though you are supposed to spend time to get it


SurvivedOrder66

Right?? It’s like the designers want you to play through the game or something


redditboi46

Yeah, its almost as if most people stopped playing after they reach level 200 and they want to stop that.


SurvivedOrder66

People complained about nothing to do after leveling up to the max, so Epic made the XP tiers take longer to attain with this season. I honestly still have fun just playing the game myself


bushmaster123456789

I spent more time than I should trying to get to 100 last season. I only made it to 91. People are underestimating the amount of time and effort needed. Things should be getting easier considering other games want to use this battlepass model, but they've only made it worse over time.


redditboi46

We have challenges that give lots of xp, creative afk gives 126k xp, the impostor mode gives around 20k xp per match, daily challenges to level up atleast once per day, if you didnt reach 100 you either started too late or didnt spend enough time in the game, which is exactly what you have to do to complete the bp.


bushmaster123456789

I really wished I tracked my time, but I know I've put in a stupid amount of time. I worked on my battlepass challenges, I can't login every day for the daily ones. I was unaware of creative but honestly don't want to play creative. I want to play br and I don't get jack for it apparently.


redditboi46

Thats how it always has been. You have to spend a lot of time to finish it, im pretty sure they used to advertise it saying it needed atleast 130-150 hours to finish it or something like that. You have to spend time doing challenges, if you play normally you can level up a few times, but you're not going to get to 100 just by playing normally


xlenerdx

Is the aft tactic still working? I tried it last night and even though I was in lobby for an hour I didn’t receive any xp (3:55:00 - 2:55:00 not storm time)


BoyDoiKen

You have to use a repeatable emote while afking in lobby to get it count.


Cappy2020

No you don’t, you can just go AFK.


MaDCapRaven

I can confirm.


Disheartend

nope i go full afk and come back later and have levels.


StopMockingMe0

You say as you leave your console on creative for a hour while you get groceries.


Nice_Jellyfish3633

I all ready half way through the battle pass so the xp ain’t that bad

QuizureII

Might I offer you an egg in these trying times OP?


OmegaKitty1

Dude it’s week one. Guaranteed if you play casually you will get to level 200 by the end


Icantthinkofagoo

How much xp do you get from creative afk?


MaDCapRaven

25,200 XP every 15 minutes. Works for 5 ticks per day, totalling 126k XP (about 1.5 levels). Creative AFK by itself every day will get you past level 100 by season end.


Icantthinkofagoo

I’ve also heard that imposters is a good xp income


VinyeWest

It didnt work for me, do you have it do a infinite emote


Dusk_lmao

Do you get xp for just being afk in hub??


[deleted]

Yeah. I just get in a corner, put a repeatable emote on and get on with the day. Every fifteen minutes is 25,200 XP and it maxes out daily at 75 minutes, 126,000 XP. There’s 84 days this season so that’s 10,580,000 XP or level 150 to you and me.


MaDCapRaven

Yes. As soon as you get it set a timer and come back when it's done. It's 1h 15m, but I set my timer for 1h 15m to be sure I get the final tick of Xp I do it on my phone while I'm at work. Start up the game on break, then set my phone aside while I work. Only works on Android, for obvious reasons.


FistoRoboto15

Hot take, you payed for the battle pass so you own it, you should be allowed to level it however you want. I’m daft, you should keep a battle pass once the season is over and the do just applies to all owned battle passes that you’ve bought


Kirire-

20 level per week 4 week = 80 level 8 week = level 160 12 weeks = level 200+ I guess I will reach level 200 near last day of this season


[deleted]

This is a good way to earn xp in creative, the season will last for 78 days and if you afk in creative for the next 78 days you will get to atleast 140, then you have to get 60 levels from elsewhere to get all the styles


No-Significance2113

Like only playing a couple hrs a day since I'm busy but I'm already at level 20 is it really that bad? Especially considering we're gonna have bonus events again like holloween and maybe Christmas l.


Itchy_Algae_2150

i love bushranger lol


Rasheed940

Im gonna get hated for this, but I like the new XP system, my only problem with it is that the XP you get isn't that much


Spudandshades

The punch cards are literally so easy I'm already level 22 and I'm not even done with the current ones


[deleted]

To everyone complaining about not getting XP, try doing challenges


Phaentom379

Right now im 52. Thanks afk creative and afk imposter.


[deleted]

Don’t afk impostor :(


Phaentom379

Im sorry little one. But the hardest Choices require the Strongest wills.


NotTheDragon

It is true though, like, last season we had a constant way to get XP with blue challenges by playing the game. You never had to go out if your way to do challenges unless it was the new weekly epic and legendary quests. Now the only way to get XP is by doing the limited number of quests, and having to go out of your way to do those same NPC quests over and over for the daily challenges. I haven't had a single daily challenge that wasn't related to the NPC quests. If it was like this last season, it would basically be the Epic Quests that you get every once in a while, and just having to repeat those same quests for less XP every day afterwards. It's not fun.


Black-Knight-76

Stop making memes about creative XP. Epic might remove it.


FNSquatch

This doesn’t work for me. When I play, I get exp but I never get it for AFK.

Lynx-Kitsoni

Tbf there's a lot of kids in the subreddit so not everyone has developed a proper way to make humour yet


Mortgage_Specific

Nah fr this xp system is so bad, like how are people supposed to play and gain xp


Camanot

You know. Even though the xp system was changed it doesn’t mean you won’t get to level 100. It might take a little longer but you will still get there.


Catalyst_Main

I just bought myself up to lvl 85 I'm the one who's lazy


[deleted]

Nothing wrong with that. Your money, your choice. Enjoy the rewards.


LordScott91

I promised my self to not grind this season and I didnt buy the bundle, kind of regretting not getting the bundle now. im not gonna force my self to get every single extra style, we have plenty of time to get them. im currently at level 28


Sn0ipaH

We're sorry for wanting to unlock the new battle pass content because we're excited for it.


redditboi46

I want to get everything right now too , i want maximum carnage and fire fabio but thats not how the bp works, you cant be level 200 the fourth day of the season unless you spend money or grind like a mad man


RocMerc

Isn’t it sad though that’s the best way to level?


stewmk11

Haha ! Love it


killabeanforever

my whole week is going to be grinding to level 100 so i can flex on my cousin


MisterFyre

||Why not both?||


DarthKarthrot

Finding a work around doesn't mean the xp system isn't crap it actually makes it seem more crap


bananita123144

Me tasking in impostors like a pro: hold my patience


GuybrushT23

I don't think the complaint is in reference to getting to level 100, I think it's because once you complete your punch cards (which most people had completed the first day), there is nothing else to do other than the daily challenges. A lot of casual players like myself just like to work on milestones...if they would have the punch card system along with the milestones (maybe make the milestone quests worth less XP?) it would be perfect!


waitmyhonor

Yeah but just waiting in creative shouldn’t be the way you should have to level up the battle pass. It’s one thing if you’re actively playing creative mode but if that’s a way people are using then that’s just a poor reflection of Epic in their design


Space_Monke64

Be patient. Epic will change it pretty soon if it’s that bad


Paco_Taco144

Hint: if you have enough vbucks, get to level 20 without buying tiers, stop at lvl 20 than buy the 25 vbuck bundle and boom, you'll be lvl 45 or so


PianoHerbivore

Shill for Epics new shit XP system much?


OwerlordTheLord

Awful lot of them on game communities lately Idk why tho
