This is also one of the worst achievements in Gears period. Having played a match with a team of allies that are level 5 or whatever.
Would like to know more about this. I have been curious if working in diversity made a difference.
0-1 = 125 ally xp
1-2 = 500 ally xp
2-3 = 3000 ally xp
3-4 = 7500 ally xp
4-5 = 15000 ally xp
To earn Ally xp you can do the following:
Completing a Campaign chapter will give you 10 ally xp
Winning a Versus round in Multiplayer will give you 10 ally xp
Completing 1 chapter in Escape will give you 10 ally xp
Completing 1 wave of Horde will give you 3 ally xp (full horde be 150 ally xp.)
Well I’m 8% with two people and 6% with one person. From what I remember.
Wow. That’s after a ton of master escape runs.
3 points per horde wave
10 points per campaign chapter
10 points per escape chapter
10 points per versus round won
That’s what I could find.
Sorry. Posted before I saw your chart. Thanks!
U only get 5pts a round on execution and escalation. Guardian is best at 30 pts.
Kinda funny they reduced the amount needed for level 1 and level 2 (250 to 125) and (1000 to 500) but left the later levels untouched. Which is obviously the main grind, 15.000 for a single level is insane.
I agree.
This is slightly unrelated but interesting to know,
If you block someone and add them back, you’d still have the same amount of % XP as before. So it’s reversible and not completely lost.
Don’t ask how I found out or why I’d do this.
I am glad it works like this and not completely lost. I almost regretted it. Then I was saved,
With one person, 1,100+ Escape Chapters. So could be 550+ Incon or Master Escape.
Another person, 1,600+ Escape Chapters. So 800+ Incon or Master Escape.
Almost 1,000 matches with another player. But they weren’t all Master though.
My group is almost done BFFs now in less then a month so far :3. Were are 32% as a group it’ll go up to 40 after
I’m pretty sure most people are boosting this in Co-op VS AI, selecting for guardian, and intentionally losing rounds to get the most out of each guardian type match (voting for guardian after of course if available)
That does sound stupid, am I the only one who hasn’t looked at the chevo list yet lol, nor will I, not even got round to checking 4s yet 


You don’t get honour for losing a round…
Ah, are you sure? I remember a group I was talking to that farmed the BFF achievements as a set of 5 players telling me something about guardian. I may be mis-remembering, but they definitely said they were boosting it in co-op vs ai.
That’s what I heard too. It’s all about winning rounds. Losing doesn’t lose you honour points, just it prolongs the game. Winning 3-0 is (at least on paper) quicker than winning 3-1. You get the same points either way.
Yeah, at the moment I also have a group with me boosting Guardian on Coop vs AI, but we always win the rounds,
it’s the fastest way.
150 honour in 1-50 horde = 2-2,5 hours
while 150 honour in Coop vs AI = 15 minutes.
