Want to level up in Rise of the Tomb Raider early in the game and unlock the skills to make your time in Siberia easier? This XP exploit for Rise of the Tomb Raider will enable you to gain access to higher-level skills earlier in the game. While it’s a bit grindy, repetition is usually the key to a proper XP exploit.
Here’s the repeatable XP exploit you need in Rise of the Tomb Raider :
Reach the first major hub, “Soviet Installation.” You find this hub after completing Mountain Peak, The Prophet’s Tomb, The Siberian Wilderness, and the Glacial Cavern.
Go to the first available Base Camp, Installation Vista. From there, head down the zipline and follow the path. There will be one lone enemy at the base of the hill. Take them out from the bushes and they’ll never see you coming.
Next, there will be two enemies together. You’ll have the opportunity to distract one with a thrown bottle as part of a tutorial and will conclude by taking them both out at once.
Afterwards, head over the wall. You’ll enter a small but open area with a statue and lots of cover. It doesn’t matter how you take out enemies, but take them out and head into the building.
After heading up the stairs, eliminate remaining hostiles and follow the map marker. You’ll reach a long zipline into the next section. Using this zipline will award you 75 XP for entering the building with stealth.
Kill the enemies in this building’s interrogation room, then sneak through the air vents. You’ll enter another combat room. After clearing it, blow open the door. Mop up the last few enemies ahead, then climb through the gap in the top right corner.
This makes a new Base Camp available. Fast travel back to the Installation Vista Base Camp, then go back down the hill, through the statue area, up the stairs, and onto the long zipline. You’ll get another 75 XP.
Continue onto the new Base Camp, then fast travel back to Installation Vista and repeat the process as many times as you like.
Here’s a video of the process in action:
While you’re constantly being given XP in Rise of the Tomb Raider just for your normal tasks of hunting, killing, collecting, and exploring, this repeatable 75 XP exploit may be just what you need if you’re struggling to tip the scales in your favor.
