[Q] Example - what is the easiest way to reach Survivor skill-tree rank 18?

[A]

1. Start new save from Extraction mission - this immediately places you at Survivor rank 15.

2. Now a total of 31 DROP(s) are required to reach rank 18.

3. Find a Quarantine Zone called Stuffed Turtle (or any other preferred Quarantine Zone), location here

3. Enter the Stuffed Turtle and keep on replaying until 31 DROP(s) are collected.

4. Use the fast travel method to visit Quartermaster (Exit Stuffed Turtle, open quest log, select main mission, quit to main menu and select continue.

5. Don't deliver all the DROP(s) at once or it will result in gaining less experience. For this instance deliver packages in order: 11, 10 and 10.

Start a new game from Extraction quest to immediately appear at Survivor skill-tree rank 15 and afterwards use preferred Quarantine Zone. Stuffed Turtle is good option as it is one of the easiest to grind Quarantine Zones. The Fastest Way to Level up Legend explains how to obtain DROP(s) at optimal pace.- After Stuffed Turtle has been discovered it will appear on the map and in quest log. You may take advantage of this and fast travel to it by selecting Stuffed Turtle as quest and reloading save.It is also possible to fast travel to the Quartermaster by tracking the main mission and reloading save.It's okay to gather as many DROP(s) as you wish however it's unwise to deliver all the DROP(s) at once.For example, aiming to reach Survivor skill-tree rank 17 while being rank 15, instead of delivering all the 21 packages at once, first deliver 11 and then 10. Do this for rest of the ranks. Reason for this is bug which results in gaining slightly less experience than overall if DROP(s) are delivered in bulk.Here is a side by side comparison of an attempt to reach rank 17 by delivering all at once on the left side and then separately at right side.It's possible to open inventory and drop packages to the ground to avoid delivering everything at once. Alternatively place all DROP(s) in storage and only pick required amount of DROP(s) for the next level.The chart below will begin from Survivor skill-tree rank 15 and show how many DROP(s) are required to deliver in order to advance past every rank throughout the Survivor skill-tree.Items dropped on ground disappear when quitting save. Dropped items may also despawn when sleeping.Quarantine Zones don't show up on the map or in quest log until discovered again on a new save.For the Legend XP Table visit:
