So I've beaten the game and stuff, and now I'm just trying to accumulate enough Honor and Xeno Points to unlock all the armor and costume bits that I have left. Any tips on which levels or side missions are best for getting the most XP?
Normally, I play the Alien and Predator infinite wave side missions; the longer you last, the more points you get.

Try with the alien level Temple Wars, you can win 30.000 Xeno Points. For the Predator i recommend you the Side Mission 4
Great, thanks for the tips!
I've been playing alien mission temple wars. Built up my alien really fast!! You definitely get between 20 and 30K easy each time...
PS. Also equip the warrior carved head... You get a 60% exp point bonus. Not sure if the exp points are different from the points you spend in the store, but it won't hurt. :-)
Hey! Here's a related question. What's the maximum level you can rank up to? I'm currently at level 33 as the alien...
I don't know, to be honest - I just hit 32 as the Alien myself (and I'm 18 as the Predator).
Hmm... I'm up to 40 now... Lol
A couple things...
1) levels/ranks go beyond 50. I got my alien to level 50 while I was trying to unlock all armor/ability upgrades, and it's still going... Does anyone know where the levels cap off at?
2) has anyone else had trouble with the "marksman" predator achievement? I swear I've gone through mission after mission with 30+ kills using ONLY my shoulder cannon and it still hasn't unlocked... Am I missing something? That's one of the only achievements I haven't unlocked yet, and I'm starting to think it's glitched or something...
3) does anyone know what the maximum number of medikits/energy rechargers/rage rechargers you can purchase are?
In response to #2, just keep trying and it will eventually unlock (most likely); I think something similar happened to me.

Arg!! That's freakin frustrating!!!
I don't think it's that much more; I recommend completing the level to make sure you saved your progress.

FYI... If anyone is interested, the maximum number of consumable items you can hold at one time is 99 (that's medikits, energy rechargers, and rage rechargers).
Did you ever get that achievement you were aiming for?

The marksman achievement? No, not yet. That and the two achievements related to the side missions are the only ones I have left. I can't get the side mission achievements because the side missions are all still locked. And the marksman achievement just won't unlock for me! Beyond that, I'm at level (rank) 44 with my predator, have all armors/abilities/weapons unlocked and holding the maximum number of medikits and energy rechargers. My alien is a rank 50, and I have everything unlocked there too (only holding 10 rage rechargers though).

I have a question, which one is the last side mission?
The last campaign side mission is Alien's "United Offensive" where you fight waves of enemies. The latest side mission released is "Overpowered" where you play as an Alien Queen, it was released in an update and wasn't part of the initial game when released.

I asked because in the last alĂen level, appears as if had a side mission.
It's a glitch, it used to be Overpowered but when the new update was released containing that side mission, they made it separate instead and never got rid of the old placeholder.

Thanks, i thought that it was another side mission.
Another question, which alien did you recommend me to get the 3 stars in the first and the third side levels?
Oh those levels were bitches to get through; it's not really about which Alien to use but which abilities. I recommend using Dash Lock; hold down the pounce button and the Alien can target an enemy on the other side of the room and quick pounce all the way over. Others have recommended Acid Long Range, but I've never really tried it myself.

I'm a huge fan of Dash Through because that way you can never be cornered - you can always dash right through any enemies surrounding you and give yourself some breathing room.
I also like Acid Pool a lot because it stun-locks enemies really well and deals massive damage against some of the heavier opponents (flamers, cloakers, Predators).
I like Dash Through too, it's great against Aliens but to get somewhere fast, Dash Lock is the way to go.

Lol, I do that too! I continuously dash to speed through levels as fast as possible. I try to break my own speed records on certain missions lol.
I did this to get massive amounts of points, and leveled up like crazy.
Alien mission 7: Stalkers
When you start follow the arrow to the next room. In this area a Yautja (Predator) will watch you fight a few enemies. After you are done killing them you have to climb a wall.
Here is where the tip I'm giving you is.
Once up the wall you will see an enclosure/ a fenced area.
Now go to the right slowly. There you will see a sentry gun firing on alien enemies.
Don't go too far out or the gun will fire on you.
Once the enemy aliens come after you, go into the fenced area and pit yourself in between the boxes, and fencing in the bottom right corner.
When you go back into the enclosure the enemy will follow you. Then more will come, and more, and more. Eventually you will be over run by them then can't move.
The thing is if you are in that corner, the amount of alien congestion, will stop most hits on you by them because they are too close together.
Here's the "fun" part.
Now you can either swing away at them by holding "a" down. Or you could combo them by hitting "A" three times then hitting "B". This will cause your alien to jump and slam his fist to the ground sending enemies flying. This will either cause mass kills or just knock them back a little.
The alien enemies at this point keep spawning forever (until you get past the sentry gun to the tunnel to the right which will stop their spawning) so there will be no shortage.
After doing 1 mission I leveled up to 35 and received 3 million Xeno points.
i know a lot of ways to farm xeno honor points for xeno points you should do the temple wars and the wave attack side mission for honor points just do side mission for and mission 9.
