Complete Guide to Making Money and Earning XP in War Dogs Through Building

One-Sentence Summary

A comprehensive guide explaining the mechanics of earning money and XP in War Dogs by building structures at FOBs, with formulas and optimal strategies for both in-zone and out-of-zone construction.

Key Takeaways

• [0:31] Building with a squad is significantly more effective than solo building, and players should consider specializing in logistics roles (Lakota or Ural pilots) which can earn 100k+ per game when supplying teammates effectively.

• [2:36] The money and XP system follows specific mathematical formulas: XP equals total supply cost multiplied by 1.25 (consistent in or out of zone), while in-zone money equals five times supply use plus a completion bonus calculated as (supply cost + 51) ÷ 2.

• [5:15] The most profitable structures to build vary by hammer size: Hedgehog for small hammers, loudspeaker for medium hammers, and drill rig for large hammers, with drill rigs yielding approximately $9,926 per completion in-zone.

• [6:47] Strategic FOB defense should include multiple drill rigs spread across corners, multiple AA operators with different weapons (SeaWiz and Talons), and support structures like repair/refuel stations and mortars, which all generate substantial income while protecting the team.

• [8:53] Offensive weapons like mortars and Stingrays offer high-risk, high-reward money-making opportunities based on player skill, as earnings scale with enemy kills and destroyed targets.

• [9:55] Passive income can be earned by unloading supply boxes and pallets into FOBs and allowing teammates to build structures, providing residual payments while supporting team efforts.
