WARDOGS Assault guide: XP, levels and unlocks

How the Assault class plays, how it levels up, everything it unlocks and the XP each level takes. Assault goes from level 0 to 100; level 20 alone takes 250,000 XP.

How Assault plays

The frontline rifleman. Points come from bodies in the Control Zone, and Assault is the class that wins the fights to stay there.

Starting out: Start with a rifle you can afford to lose, and keep enough cash for ammunition and healing. A cheap kit you can replace keeps you in the fight longer than an expensive one you can't.

A typical Assault match

  1. Get a lift in from a driver or pilot rather than walking: the zone is where the points are.
  2. Push into the Control Zone with your squad and hold buildings or cover near the Hot Zone, where you count twice and earn double cash.
  3. Win the fights: rifle and pistol kills level Assault, and headshots pay a little more.
  4. When towers come off cooldown, help clear and capture them. Entering the full code to pull the Hot Zone (the magnet) is some of the best Assault XP there is.
  5. Stay near a medic. A revive puts you straight back in the fight; redeploying means a new kit and a trip back to the zone.

Key Assault kit

  • AK74: level 3, $10,000
  • Galil: level 10, $35,000
  • M4: level 20, $100,000
  • FAL: level 35, $200,000

Assault tips

  • Assault levels from rifle and pistol kills. SMG kills go to Medic, sniper and marksman kills to Recon, and LMG, shotgun and launcher kills to Support.
  • Put cash into kit that solves the problem in front of you, like getting through a defended entrance, rather than saving it all for a pricier rifle.
  • Most Assault unlocks are attachments, scopes and magazines for its four rifles, so levelling Assault is also how you kit them out.

Your first Assault match

  • Aim for: Get through a coordinated push with your squad and help hold the ground you take.
  • Avoid: Buying an expensive rifle and arriving without the ammunition, healing or position to stay in the fight.
