For starters, players will want to level up their weapons to unlock additional attachments and cosmetics. The attachments can make a gun go from a zero to a hero and make it feel much more comfortable in the player's hands. The only way to level up the weapon is by collecting kills with them. There are certain things players can do to make the grind happen a little faster. Here's how to level up guns fast in Black Ops Cold War.

There are three different things players can do to level up their weapons the fast way.

  • Zombie Mode: The XP from the Zombie mode carries over to the multiplayer. Since players can select their own class when jumping into Zombies, this is a great way to get kills without much of a hassle. While the XP per kill isn't much, it begins to stack up fast when killing 10 zombies at a time.
  • Use Tokens and XP Weekends: The game will reward the player with Weapon XP tokens that will double XP for a limited time. Make sure to use these as often as possible to grind up fast.
  • Games With Tons of Players: Playing the Combined Arms Moshpit will throw the player in a match with up to 24 players. This gets pretty crazy but the more players mean more chances to rack up kills. The best way to level up your weapons.

From experience, the best thing to do would be to change your weapon once it is maxed out. This allows players to earn more experience for completing challenges with each gun. It may take a while, but completing all of these tasks will reward the player with some high tier camo skins for their guns.
