I'm an execution guy, but I also love Annex. Anything really but horde.... I've never liked horde... But I guess if people were going to play it, I'd jump in.

See you guys tomorrow for 20x XP!

I am not a proponent in boosting, but for this level 100 in Gears 2, I think I can make an exception.

This the best solution to getting XP, note that all these numbers are at the current 2x XP. Credit to Sora401k on TrueAchievements.com

With the recent addition of Social Matches this is now much easier. First, get 2 groups of 5 together in 2 different parties. They can be 5 real people, or you can have some guests logged in. Either works just fine. Have both teams matchmake into Social King Of The Hill. Be sure to make everyone on both teams a preferred player, that way you have a higher chance of being matched up. Most already running matches don't have 5 slots open on one team, so it will most likely start you in a new match with your team and 5 bots. Then the other team, looking for 5 open slots, will have a high chance of getting in. If not, then just leave and try again. Just keep matchmaking and quitting until you get all 10 people together in a match. Then do the following. Have team 1 and team 2 meet at the hill. Neither go in until both are there. Then team 1 will step in, capture the hill, and as soon as the 200 capture points are awarded to the players in the hill, all the members from team 2 will step into the hill, breaking the capture, getting 50 points each, and allowing the hill to be captured again. Do this over and over. When team 1 gets to 119 points stop. Swap team 2 into the hill, repeat the entire process. When both teams have 119 end the round by letting one win. Then the next round, repeat the same process, except the team that lost the first round should now be the winner. Doing this allows for 3 rounds per match. You must get 120 capture points to win the rounds. 200 points per capture x 120 capture points to win the round = 24000. 50 points per "break" x 119 "breaks" = 5950 5950 + 24000 = Nearly 30,000 points per round (rounded from 29,950). And thats if you don't kill someone, which happens from time to time. 30,000 x 3 = 90,000 King of the Hill gives 50% EXP back of what your score is. EX: You score 1000 points, you get 500EXP. So if you score 90,000 you get 45,000 EXP back. Thats right. 45,000 exp PER MATCH. Each match takes about 40 minutes. Social just does endless matches with no further matchmaking. Going through each map alphabetically.

So take that 45k PER MATCH times 10 = 450k per match.

I would prefer to just actually play the games. I'm only level 42 and know I'm not going to reach 100, I'd prefer to just have fun instead of boosting.

I only thought it might be cool to dabble if we can, I am not going to do wave 1 over and over and over again to get there. How I got burned out last time.
