Tips for ranking up

• For starters, the Lone Wolves playlist is the most trouble-free and unproblematic way to get up to skill level 10, required for becoming a Lieutenant. This is because as long as your scoring position is in the 1st, 2nd or 3rd place (depending how many players are in the game) you will gain a considerable amount of EXP and if you win a couple games in a row there, you will earn Skill points.

• Team Doubles playlist is also another good choice for ranking up. Just make sure you have a buddy to join you in your team to have faith in them otherwise if you team up with other player(s) sometimes there may be a few players who, in team games betray their teammates for no good reason.

• Team Slayer playlist is also a good playlist to rank up on after you get your highest skill to 10. Try to use your headset to talk to your team to make it easier. Do not betray people or you will get booted. Make sure you play ranked team slayer not social, it will not get your skill up.

• If your good with the BR or the Magnum you should play Team SWAT because if your skilled with the weapons in that game type you can win easilyand get your skill up.

• Try being alert for Double EXP Weekend playlists. You will usually earn 2 EXPs instead of just one. Grifball and Living Dead are recommended for starters, as whichever player ranks you encounter, fun is always guaranteed in the game.

• For those new to Halo, avoid Big Team Battle and playlists which usually includes long range weaponry like Battle Rifles as starting weapons if you're not skilled at it.

Trivia

• If your a Grade 2 or higher most people will think that you are not good at Halo and can't get your skill level any higher, except if your a General grade 2 or higher.
• Unless you are playing with friends that you have trained with, or you can take on 4 enemeies and win, MLG is not suggested for raising your skill.
• Beyond the rank of a lieutenant, rank doesn't really benifit you, execpt from getting respect because there are no more armor perms or achievements left to get.
