Thread: How long does one have to sit in a camp to get max XP?

A way to macro-grind this, is to create 20 or so camps, put each of them on a F1-F23 button, and create a macro that:


1. Presses F1
2. Presses F2
3. ...
4. Presses F23
5. Says "Hello hello, welcome to my camp. Please, sit down and rest your feet friend."
6. Pause 240 seconds or so
7. Presses F24 (where you've placed the macro, thus it loops)

Activate the macro, leave your computer on over night, go to sleep.


It works like this: It tries to put up a new camp continously. If there already is a camp present, then you can't place a new one, and so the macro continues... The pause is there to have some time between the speaking part, so that you don't spam your neighborhood (which is a bad thing!).


After 30 minutes or so, the camp disbands by itself, when it's reached its max duration. The macro then (as usual) tries to place a new camp, which is successful, and the happy camping goes on.


Better tents give you better xp.


This is a boring way to grind it I guess.

In addition to the 28 minute timer, you can also increase your xp rate by crafting traps and camps. It may seems like just a small boost, but I found that it really speeds things along.

Yes...you can speed the time it takes to get XP by crafting, healing and other things. One of the most overlooked "activities" I've found for speeding up camping time is foraging. First, you speed up the time a bit from the activity itself, and then you speed up the time because you have to heal your mind bar. I used to forage my butt off and just destroy the lesser foraged items from my inventory. Can't remember how much this cut the camping time, but it was useful.

well if your looking for quick ways. find someone looking to earn medic skill with a bunch of stims. Stand in your camp and do Tumble to standing, while he heals you. after 5 minutes, replace your camp, it should be maxed. rinse and repeat, both of you gain lots of exp.
