Ugh! Getting so sick of spawning mission after mission, after mission only to have no opponents.
Someone please tell me it gets better at level 1.
It's a long tough slog to get there 100xp at a time...

Level 1 does but doesn't. But, those free 100xp missions will get you there faster than not, since you have no CR time so you can imediately redeploy. At level 1 though, you'll have a shot at N_V or Zordon (depending on faction) and a huge pay out in the 1-11 missions.

Good to know. Guess I was a little spoiled. A long time ago I has some level 3's so things got a lot more interesting.

1 actually does get better. There are much more cons, however... be prepared with the CR. My advice stay zero and rapid deploy till you can hit the Max level spectrum of Level = (Max Upgrades - 1) + 4

That's undoubtedly the best way to upgrade. Unfortunately, I'm so bored at level 0 right now, i can't imagine waiting too much longer to move up.

I feel you man. We're in the same boat! Just keep going, I'm sure it gets better.

I too felt the same. I leveled up as soon as I could, which took quite a while. Then, I slogged through Level 1. Some of that was I didn't have very good stat setups and it felt like forever. Level 2 didn't seem to take that long and now, most of my 'Bots are level 3. It does get better.

I got the last one of my crew out of level 0 not all that long ago. It is a slog.
With level one, I've seen some of my characters finally (and rarely) get a nice hit that earned them a large chunk of XP (large by Level 1 standards

).
It is getting better. Fun little distraction between writing "upstairs" on the RPG, anyway.
