Gr4de_04 Posted October 8, 2017 Share Posted October 8, 2017 I need like 8K more XP to get the trophy for purchasing all powers. 8K is A LOT of XP. I already did all the missions, collected all the blast shards and cleared all districts. so there's no fast way to get it (I think). I've seen these user created levels that say like ''easy fast xp'' and stuff liek that but they just put a whole bunge of enemies near explosives and such. Thats not the actual xp you are getting so those are worthless. Anyone know's some good XP grinding methods? Because I'm all out of options. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burgins Posted October 9, 2017 Share Posted October 9, 2017 You can playthrough again on the separate karmic route and focus on getting all powers on that one. You get a stipend of 15k XP from finishing on both karmic routes, and there's obviously 3 or 4 missions with really good farming locations. A video I made for some XP farming near the end of the game: PowerPyx's infinite Evil Karma XP grind: And I'm sure there's others out there to look into prior to a 2nd run. If you don't want to begin a new run and want all the powers now, your only real bet is fast UGC missions. You can find the groups of cops roaming around as well for the evil karma boost, and I believe you can just keep beating them down and healing them and repeating for really slow but steady post-game XP grind. Most the solid spots are within story missions sadly 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheLastSurvivorD Posted October 9, 2017 Share Posted October 9, 2017 I was in the exact same predicament you are in, having completed the story and everything else with 6,500 XP required to unlock the remainder of the positive powers. While you can try and grind out that remaining 8,000 XP with fast UGC missions, you'll most likely be able to get the trophy on your evil playthrough. On Medium and Easy difficulty, you're given more XP for your actions, thus it is much quicker and easier to get the trophy there than grinding it in your good playthrough. You'll also be able to perform the XP glitch/methods @Burgins posted above. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By the time I did everything I wasn't anywhere near maxed. Doing it in a good and lower difficulty was much easier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hotdog_president Posted October 9, 2017 Share Posted October 9, 2017 This is the method I used... Of course you need to start a new playthrough, but you only have to go as far until you open this side mission up. When you are able to access this evil side mission, farming xp goes really quick!

Gr4de_04 Posted October 10, 2017 Author Share Posted October 10, 2017 @Burgins @TheLastSurvivorD @Elvick_ @hotdog_president Thanks for the tips and videos. I didn't know playing on lower difficulty rewards you with more XP. It wasn't like that in the original InFamous I think. I did a hard difficulty good karma run on my first run, now doing a second evil karma run on easy so I could just blaze through the game (like I do with all InFamous titles) I'll try these methods out tonight.

If you play on the good playthrough, I advise to use the iconic vortex (electric tornado) instead of drain, although you still get lots of negative karma. so its best saved for post game. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Zolkovo Posted January 15, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted January 15, 2018 For anyone else struggling with this, there's an excellent exploit I found although it may already be documented somewhere. Once you've unlocked all powers via progressing through enough of the story and completing all relevant stunts, make sure you have around 6000xp. Don't go purchasing powers recklessly early on, especially on hard where you get much less xp. Now once you've done this, simply search for any xp boost UGC mission and pick one that has a 4 or 5 star rating. As soon as it starts kill some enemies then open up the upgrade menu and purchase a power. Kill some more enemies and if you go back into the upgrade menu your xp will have shot back up to whatever it was previously. Rinse and repeat until you've purchased all the powers. It will only take about 2 minutes to purchase all the powers! Also note you don't have to unlock absolutely everything straight away. You can use the 6000xp reserve later if you have a couple of upgrades locked behind number of side quests completed. Happy hunting! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gr4de_04 Posted January 15, 2018 Author Share Posted January 15, 2018 @Zolkovo I think people reading this thread already spend all their XP at which point the method from @hotdog_president would be the best. Also, if u don't use that 6K xp prior ur story progress would be much slower as ur significantly underpowered so those 2 minutes aren't really 2 minutes.

Not true at all, barely any of the upgrades are essential. The only ones I found useful for heroic hard difficulty were redirect rocket and sticky grenades. The melee upgrades can be handy too, but you'll still have plenty spare xp. EDIT: Just finished the campaign on evil hard in about 6-7 hrs, while only purchasing double grenade and tripwire rocket. But actually you're free to buy whatever you please as long as you save the side missions until the end. By that point it will be easy for someone to see how many powers they have left to purchase and quickly realise that they won't get anywhere near that xp via side missions. But thankfully side missions will provide more than enough xp to use the exploit. Edited January 15, 2018 by Zolkovo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're an idiot like me and didn't learn about this before it was too late, I recommend the CGU mission "XP!!!!!" created by a dude named "Jumpedgera" something. Basically you just have to stand on a particular spot and be afk while enemies spawn infinitely and kill themselves in the electrified water around you. XP is capped at 325 per mission, and you'll need about 10 minutes to reach the max XP. Then you can just restart one of the doppelgangers of this map as there are lots of them. Once you've reached enough XP to buy the most expensive power that you're still missing, you can safely apply the above method. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KILLERMACHINE666 Posted January 8, 2021 Share Posted January 8, 2021 Everything was easy now they fuck me because mis like 8 k xp there patch ruin it al cant farrmon ugn missions or be take forever others was like 10 min 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwicySauce Posted May 16, 2021 Share Posted May 16, 2021 (edited) If you're stuck in the crappy situation of having done everything and still having thousands of exp to obtain, your best bet is to find an afk xp ugc mission (like standing in a pool electrifying everything) and do something else for 15 minutes or however long it takes to accumulate 325exp. Then finish the mission and start another similar one until you get another 325exp (325 seems to be the max exp you can get for a ugc). As for negative karma do all the negative karma side missions before grinding! Edited May 16, 2021 by SwicySauce 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
