How to Earn Weapon XP Fast in Warzone 2 Plunder
The fastest way to earn weapon XP in Warzone 2 is by loading into a game of Plunder and completing as many Most Wanted contracts as possible.
To maximize how many contracts you can complete, loot as much as you can while it’s active. Also, spend your cash on armor plates to get a little bit more Weapon XP.
Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to do it:
- Make a loadout with the weapons you want to level up
- Use a Double Weapon XP Token if you have one
- Or, wait for the next Warzone 2 Double XP event
- Load into a game of Plunder and choose the loadout containing the weapons you want to level up
- You can do this solo or with teammates
- Drop into a location with a Most Wanted contract that you think won’t be too busy and start the contract
- Most Wanted contracts mark you on enemy maps and task you with staying alive until a timer runs out
- Use these top tips to complete Most Wanted contracts in Warzone 2 to ensure you get the Weapon XP

- While the Most Wanted is active, loot any boxes and containers to reduce the timer
- Every container you loot will reduce the Most Wanted timer by 10 seconds
- Completing the Most Wanted contract will give you 5500 Weapon XP for whatever weapon you are holding!
- You can also get a small amount of additional Weapon XP by buying armor plates, so make sure to head to a Buy Station if you’ve got some cash spare

- Repeat this process with another Most Wanted contract to continue leveling up your guns as fast as possible!
- With a Double Weapon XP Token, you should be able to reach max level with any gun within one match, as long as you complete four or five Most Wanted contracts
If you don’t want to play Plunder, but still want to level up weapons fast, we’ve got just the thing. You can also complete Most Wanted Contracts in Battle Royale for loads fo Weapon XP!
