Alright, guys, so I’ve been grinding away at Space Marine 2, trying to get those Mastery Points. Let me tell you, it’s been a journey. Here’s what I’ve figured out so far, and hopefully, it helps some of you out there.
Getting Started and My Initial Confusion
Initially, I was all over the place. I was playing Operations, trying out different weapons, and just generally feeling like I was making zero progress. I was earning XP, sure, but those Mastery Points felt like they were miles away. I was switching between weapons, thinking that using a weapon in combat was the key. I was wrong, kinda.
The “Aha!” Moment with Armory Data
Then I stumbled upon this thing called Armory Data. I’m not gonna lie, I’d been ignoring it for a while, thinking it was just some extra fluff. Turns out, it’s a total game-changer. Basically, if you’ve unlocked an upgrade, you can use this Armory Data on it.
The Fastest Way I Found
So, here’s the trick that really sped things up for me. Instead of grinding for hours with a specific weapon, I started using Armory Data on the upgrades I had unlocked. What does it do? It instantly maxes out the XP for that upgrade! Boom! And guess what comes with maxed-out XP? A Mastery Point.
My Step-by-Step Process
Here’s how I’ve been doing it, step by step:
- Unlock Upgrades: First, I played enough to unlock some weapon upgrades. You gotta have these unlocked before you can do anything else.
- Gather Armory Data: I started paying more attention to collecting Armory Data during missions.
- Use Armory Data: I went into the armory, selected the upgrades I’d unlocked, and used the Armory Data.
- Instant Mastery Point: Like magic, the XP bar filled up, and I got the Mastery Point without having to fire a single shot with that specific weapon configuration.
- Repeat: I’ve been repeating this process with different upgrades, and it’s way faster than just trying to level them up through combat.
Final Thoughts (for now)
This Armory Data thing is a lifesaver, seriously. It’s the quickest way I’ve found to rack up those Mastery Points without spending countless hours grinding in combat. Give it a try, and let me know if it works for you. I’m still figuring things out, so if you have any other tips, share them! We’re all in this together, right?
