    player with above 5000 shd levels

    Hi,

    just a question i've seen a few players with above 5k shd level numbers and 1 player above 10k. is this normal? how do they level that high seeing most people between 2-4k average?

    just wondering if they are people cheating or not.

    Undoubtedly there may be some that cheated or use glitches but the large portion of players with high SHD levels just don't mind doing activities 1000x over. And there are a few that give a lot of XP (time wise) which makes their levels go up rather quickly.

    Directives. i used to play heroic +5 directives and DUA legendary +5 directives. then there is also CP4's and activities which you can finish in 5min depeding in your playstyle. with no directives acitve, you level up once every 2 heroic missions (halfway the 2nd run). with just 1 directive, you're guaranteed to level up once every heroic missions. i'm guessing you havent seen agents with 30k and 50k levels. there's also summit 100f, one guy leaves the group when 1 hunter is left, finish the mission and join him again, infinite 100f completion farming

    I am at 150
    The obsession of getting better or god-rolled gear is creeping in, but I still choose what to do based on the amount of perceived "fun".
    I got a few good pieces and I calibrated a few, and I'm flying through "challenging", still have to be careful, plan and take my time through "heroic"...

    In the end the score is irrelevant they just have access to more material. I'm coming up on 4000 and I don't use the material I have. Completely meaningless score just means you have played a lot.

    Hmm, I thought watch levels are adding all kind of attributes (perhaps to a certain limit, dunno...)
    Isn't that why you have to choose what to do with each level you gain?

    Each SHD level lets you add 0.2% to a buff, but as you can see from the picture on this page, you're limited to 50 points in any buff, or a 10% total buff. This is decent and useful, but far from game-breaking. After you've got a thousand SHD levels and filled all of these, I don't know what you get (if anything) with the additional levels.
