Battlefield 6 Player Hits Max Rank With 'death Trap' Jeep Everybody...
One guy maxed out Battlefield 6's worst vehicle over the course of a month.
It's been well established on this website that Battlefield 6's transport jeep is an abomination. Not only is the Light Ground Transport (LGT) bad at its only job of safely transporting players from A to B, but despite its high mobility and machinegun nest, its lack of armor plating means your chance of survival goes down by climbing inside of one. It's like a coffin on wheels, but without the robust defensive capabilities of wood.
It's no surprise that most BF6 players have made a habit of ignoring the LGT entirely by choosing to spawn directly on capture points or even run out of the HQ instead. Renegade_Soviet is not a normal BF6 player. Earlier today on the Battlefield subreddit, he posted a screenshot of something that I'd wager nobody else has seen in the wild: the Mad Max-ified "Gold Standard" skin for the LGT jeep, a reward for reaching rank 50 with the vehicle.
"Rank 50 for the death trap, never removing this badge," he wrote alongside the image.
"How," one commenter, who understood the implication of reaching the maximum level on a vehicle that's more likely to kill you than help you, replied. They were not alone in wondering.
In an interview with PC Gamer, Renegade said the strategy was simple: park the jeep in view of narrow alleyways, jump in the gunner seat, and riddle people with bullets before they realize what's happening.
"I would wait at the objectives or narrow pathways and wait for [enemies] to come towards me. I did it off and on over the course of a month, but I was averaging 2.5k to 3k XP per game. Not sure if it was the most efficient method."
It was a grueling exercise that wore on "sanity," and surprisingly, he says he did it all on normal Conquest and Escalation servers, no bot matches. "I didn't do it on casual mode since it only gives a fraction of the XP for bot kills," he told one commenter.

Next, you might be wondering why he bothered at all. The answer is one I expected: "I wanted to have the level 50 [jeep] badge on my profile as kind of a flex, since I know not too many people will get it."
