Delete this before they patch it lol

That might be the most efficient way of getting XP but the best way is just playing the game for your enjoyment and racking up XP along the way

HR derby you can get 10 home runs in one minute. That is 250 xp per min
timing HR derby it is actually worse than it seems. the load time into the game takes it down to like 85-95 xp / min (load screen, waiting on players, and play time). just running moments over and over is 100-120 xp/minute. So far, I think showdowns are still the best xp/min but you have to be able to complete them for the bonus xp.
I use the 2 player HR derby bc it has less loading. My math is different bc I dont always actually play as much as I let it run. If I just load up an at bat you can strike out and click to restart. These usually take 60 seconds and you get 110 xp. Showdown has its own time to get into the next moment and upgrading the team
time trial on this:
25 HR and 25HR by both players
6 minutes
208xp/minwe have a winner.
I never played offline, never realized you could speed this up. nice call!
Yes and make sure you hold triangle after the ball is hit. That speeds it up. so you can get 10 home runs in 60 seconds when you are rolling

I do agree, I got to prestige levels and never played 1 round of HR derby and just played every part DD possible. But some people enjoy grinding and want to know... now they know what to be spending their time on.

yup i did that in the time trial. and that was just one round, the you can keep "retrying" afterword which takes maybe 1 minute off from the play selection and load. so really its about 230xp/min for every round after the first one.

Here are the steps:
- Create your player & get drafted
- Add your equipment to player
- Adjust sliders
- Go to settings -> Gameplay options->Hitting difficulty->change to Beginner
- Go to settings -> Mode specific options->turn off fielding opportunities & base running opportunities
- Games take abt 2 mins & give u an avg 400 xp
IMPORTANT: Swing early for more home runs
Did a 6 game time trial on this.
game 1 - 250 xp
game 2 - 335xp
game 3 - 535xp
game 4 - 505xp
game 5 - 335xp
game 6 - 630xpTime it took to get through menus and forced training between games and play games was 20 minutes.
thats 130xp / min. not bad if you can make sure to get 3+hits a game (which isnt very hard to do)
20 mins seems like a while. Did u turn off fielding and base running opportunities?

HR derby. 8 players. Arcade mode. You can hit 24-30 hr’s per player each round. Right around 9,000xp when finished. Haven’t timed it but feels like maybe 30min or so

i did. it takes that long because every 2-3 games or so you have to do the attribute trainings
