Leveling up your character in GTA online
GTA Online is not an RPG, and while it does have RPG elements, they are in many ways unconventional compared to most RPGs. There are two main components in the “role system” - reputation and skills, and they do not depend on each other in any way. In this article you will learn what they are, why they are needed and, just as important, how you can quickly and honestly upgrade them.
Levels (ranks), reputation and unlocking features
The “levels” familiar to many in GTA Online are called ranks(rank). This approach to naming can be considered as more realistic (remember the same captains of the 1st and 2nd rank) and associated with the “length of service” for which you are entitled various privileges.Accordingly, instead of experience, we talk here about reputation– it’s as if you are playing not to “develop a character”, but to “earn respect”, and any of your actions seem to increase your authority.
Naturally, in theory everything is possible, but in practice these are just numbers. If you're being a jerk or screwing up in a team game, they will be judged by this, and not by rank, no matter how high it may be (and this is where the already mentioned “reliable/unreliable” system comes into play).
The only practical benefit of rank is that it gives you these same privileges - access to new missions, races, transport, weapons and so on. New elements of the game open up at almost every rank, especially at the lower steps of the “service ladder”.
Maximum rank value at the time of writing this article it is set to 8000 . In this case, practically the rank is important only up to the value 135 , then this is just an incentive to continue the game, a way to “measure” with other players - and a potential means of catching cheaters.

How to level up (rank)
To level up, you need to earn reputation points (RP). This can be done in many ways, including:- Performance missions, jobs, daily tasks (up to several thousand RP);
- Fights to the death, tackles and passing playlists(up to several thousand RP plus bonus for killing leaders);
- Avoiding the police(depending on the wanted level - from 100 to 500 RP plus a bonus for staying at 5 “stars” for a long time);
- Participation in races(from 100 RP or more, even for participation);
- Car delivery for Seeds (from 100 RP and more).
Skills in GTA Online and upgrading them
In general, the player character in GTA Online has exactly the same skills as the characters in the single-player game, with the exception of special abilities, so you can pump them up in the same way.However, given the nature of the multiplayer mode, there are several unique ways to level up. Please note that we are not giving you fraudulent methods that can get you banned from Rockstar, as well as those that the developers have already “fixed” (or, most likely, will do so in the near future).
| Skill | Tips for leveling up in GTA Online |
|---|---|
| Find a task where you can attack passers-by without getting « stars» wanted. These are, for example, Gerald’s missions and specifically - “ Bloody piercing"("Pier Pressure"), which opens at rank 6. It is best to complete it during the day in sunny weather, when the concentration of people is maximum. Start the mission, go to the pier, but do not attack the Lost for now, but run around, punching and kicking passers-by. This will simultaneously increase your stamina (if you use the sprint key) and fill your pockets with cash. Then complete the mission (just kill the bandits, pick up the package and deliver it to the customer). Easy money and increased strength. |
|
| In general, in addition to the Flight School, we can recommend the parachute jump mission (unlocked at rank 11). There is still a little trick left in the relatively "legal" way: if you take off, stay in the air for a while, and then make a perfect landing, this will improve your piloting skill. This procedure (take-off – short flight – maximum “clean” landing) can be perform several times in a row. However, it is difficult to determine the duration of the flight at which the landing is counted. |
|
Driving |
It cannot be said that this method will not stop working, but it cannot be ignored. Race " Takeoff"Taking Off" takes place at the airport and is an ideal place for rearing up on motorcycle - you have a long direct runway and a minimum of animate and inanimate interference at your service. We recommend choosing Pegassi Bati 801RR (Ruffian from the same manufacturer will also work). Just start the race and get up on your hind legs. Don't worry about driving in the wrong direction and no skill upgrade messages appearing - it will grow after the race is completed. So get up on your hind legs and slowly ride as far as you can. Repeat over and over again. According to some reports, 35-40 minutes is enough to fully improve your driving using this “methodology”. |
Again, when it comes to stamina, lung capacity, and stealth, our recommendations are the same as for story mode. To make it more interesting, why not challenge yourself? For example:
- Kill a dozen or two poor fellows, sneaking up from the back (this will make you very secretive);
- Then swim and dive to wash away sins (this is also good for the lungs);
- And finally, hike Mount Chiliad and achieve enlightenment (and maximum endurance).
And much, much more. To survive, and even more so, to start building your own criminal empire, it is better to enlist the support of friends, but you also need to prove yourself. To do this, the game contains a number of hero characteristics that need to be developed in order to shoot more accurately, run longer, not die longer, better control vehicles, and the like. In this article we will tell you how to quickly upgrade your skills so that your hero is not called a weakling, a yellow-throat, or other offensive words.
There are seven skills: Stamina, Shooting, Strength, Stealth, Piloting, Driving and Lung Capacity.
How to pump up stamina
Endurance shows how long your hero can quickly run, swim and ride a bike. The skill develops by performing these actions. Unfortunately, there are no special tasks or tricks in the game to quickly level up this skill. But don’t worry, your stamina will increase on its own as you complete tasks.
How to improve your shooting
Shooting is one of the main aspects in Grand Theft Auto Online. In the game you shoot everywhere and always. Therefore, shooting skill is one of the most important. The degree of its development reduces the recoil of the weapon, increases the reload speed, as well as the timeliness of somersaults during shooting. And there are already some tricks here: if you shoot at people, then aim for the head - shooting in the head fills the skill scale faster. In addition, it is better to choose an enclosed space with one entrance, such as a clothing store. Hide behind the counter and shoot every policeman who runs inside.
But shooting at people is extra noise that attracts the attention of the police and other players. It is much better to use a shooting gallery - there you will not only fill the scale without problems with the law and with other players, but also compete with friends - profit is also possible here.
How to pump up strength
The Strength skill affects your hero's physical performance. If the skill is pumped to 100 percent, then your hero hits harder, takes less damage from hits from others, falls from a greater height without dying, climbs stairs faster and sends the golf ball further. The best way to level up this skill is to beat passersby. The scale fills one percent for every 20 hits.
But beating people on the street attracts the attention of the police. It is much better to use a special confrontation. In Grand Theft Auto Online custom cases there are cards designed to level up this specific skill. The idea is simple - you and your opponent appear on the map where you need to deliver a package, but you are prevented from doing this by a couple of dozen unarmed bots that are running towards you in droves. Here you and your opponent need to understand that the goal of this case is not to defeat the enemy by being the first to bring the package, but to improve your skill. Therefore, run around the map and methodically deal blows to the bots until the scale is completely filled. Remember that you cannot use weapons - only fists.
On the Socialclub Page, in the search field, enter “ Leveling up your strength", find the case authored by Kira_rgb, click "Add to game" and restart the client. Then all that remains is to start this case through the game menu (esc - network - cases - start case - marked cases - team of survivors).
How to level up your stealth
In GTA, stealth is necessary to complete some missions, in confrontations and to quickly escape from the police. The skill increases by 1 percent for every 45 meters in stealth mode, and by 1.5 percent for two kills in this mode. The easiest way to improve your skill is to go out onto the runway in stealth mode, hold down the gamepad sticks or keys so that the hero walks in a circle and leave for half an hour. Upon returning, you will find that the parameter has been fully upgraded.
How to improve piloting
Piloting skill affects the responsiveness of airplanes and helicopters and exposes your vehicle to less turbulence. This is a difficult skill to master, but nothing is impossible. If you only fly, the skill scale will fill by one percent for every 10 minutes in the air. But there are more effective ways. Complete all ten tasks of the Los Santos flight school, and the skill scale will be more than half filled, in addition, you will receive a substantial cash bonus. The rest can be completed by performing a simple exercise on the runway at Los Santos Airport. Take the corn cracker and pick up speed. As soon as you lift the landing gear off the ground, immediately land the plane, then try to take off again and then quickly land again. Such nodding will greatly help you gain experience in piloting.
How to improve your driving
Developed driving skill allows you to better control the car in the air, and better control the motorcycle when riding on the rear wheel. The skill increases by one percent for every second in the air and by 2-3 percent for performing unique jumps. So jump as much as possible, land on four wheels and drive on the oncoming lane without crashing into other cars.
How to pump up lung capacity
This skill allows you to stay underwater for a long time without scuba gear. A caveat is worth making here - this skill is not required if you do not intend to explore the underwater world. And even if you are going, it is better to buy portable breathing apparatus in Ammunation. But if you decide to upgrade your skill, then go to the lake in Mirror Park. Buy groceries at a nearby store and dive in. As soon as your health starts to decrease, eat what you bought. Even so, you only get one percent for every minute underwater.
When choosing GTA 5 Online among hundreds of possible games, you have to get acquainted with a bunch of additional information regarding the completion of missions. Not everyone has the patience to simply complete some tasks and slowly level up their character, so participants are quickly trying to find much faster ways to level up the main character’s powers.
When missions take place in the company of your friends, the difference between the characters' powers is always obvious. Some move slower, some don’t know how to fight, and some are not at all familiar with standard cheats, without which you simply cannot complete certain missions of the game. In such cases, allies try to help each other, but this cannot last indefinitely, so it’s worth thinking for yourself, how to pump up your strength in GTA 5 Online and be a leader in a team?
Basics of character power leveling
As mentioned earlier, some people do not have the patience to complete tasks and slowly improve the skills of their character, but in some cases this is the only way to somehow level up the powers of the main character of GTA 5. As in many games, there is a special “currency” for leveling up. - these are RP, or so-called reputation points. The number of weapons and their quality, the availability of transport and their type and additional features such as clothing, wardrobe and accessories will depend on their quantity.
How to pump up strength in GTA 5 Online in a legal way, without cheat codes?
To upgrade your character according to the rules, you need:
- Participate in races (victory is not important, because the main thing is participation, and an average of 700 points (RP) is given for it).
- Get away from the police. To begin with, the player must provoke the cops, and then, having grappled with them, simply disappear. Although this method is dangerous, it is productive. In this case, up to several thousand reputation points can be awarded.
- Stealing cars (a profitable business in itself, but at the same time you can perform any tasks using a stolen car, which guarantees + 700 (RP)).
- Join gangs or create your own (during group missions you will have to join gangs, but for creating your own, up to 1000 points are added).
- Play sports (skydiving, golf, etc.). For those who decided to use the first option, it will be a pleasant surprise that in two minutes you can earn up to 700 points, while passing through checkpoints.
Knowing how to pump up your strength in GTA 5 Online according to the rules, you can “jump” from one level to another, completing missions in just a couple of minutes.
Slow leveling is not enough to work as a team. What should I do?
When the standard option for improving your character is not suitable, some hidden features of the GTA 5 Online game are used. Indeed, sometimes it is impossible to do without them, since teammates are not able to constantly vouch for the life of one of them. If you don’t know how to quickly pump up your strength in GTA 5 Online, then you just need to have a patient friend and a car that you don’t mind “destroying” as your partners. To increase your strength several times and literally in 10 minutes, you need to put your friend, your teammate, in the car game. Since you can only pump up your strength in GTA 5 Online by making an effort, you need to kick the car with all your might for almost the entire 10 minutes. It is strength that plays an important role in the game GTA 5 Online: it increases the damage of melee attacks, athletic skills are improved, and damage when falling from a great height is minimized. After this procedure, the character becomes faster: now you can climb any stairs 10% faster.
If you want to level up your character's skills faster, you just need to spend more time on the game itself
When they say that missions are impossible to complete (and there are 120 levels), the first reason for this for many is the lack of desire to improve the skills of their character in GTA 5 Online. How to quickly increase strength by devoting enough time to it? Even if a player is actively playing with allies, teammates, creating gangs or jumping from a parachute, this may still not be enough to play well in a team. So that your allies do not have to constantly cover your back, you need to play in team missions after reaching at least level 10.
