Best Places To Farm Kills
With the weapons unlocked, all that’s left is to kill at least one Nazi with each one of them. Note thatplayers must “save and exit” after getting a kill with a weapon of their choice,and can track the weapons they’ve used by getting a kill that contributes to the weapon’s unique mastery challenges.
Mission 5, ‘Abrunza Monastery,’ is recommended for farming kills.The ‘pre-mission’ area can be run through extremely quickly, and an enemy can be found almost immediately. The more niche’secondary weapons that cannot be unlocked directly can also be found in the Target Führer DLC mission by getting into the armory.
