Build points with fewer wasted runs

Start with unearned objectives you can finish now, group nearby tasks, then prepare coordinated instance attempts.

This order is an editorial plan based on documented requirements. It is not a measured points-per-minute ranking. Your unlocked content, character, completed feats, currency and group change the best route.

  1. Check your character before picking targets

    Open the in-game Feats menu and remove completed objectives from your list. Check faction, movement mode, level or combat rating, content access and event availability. Keep reward stars separate from our estimated difficulty bars.

    Find higher-reward quick objectives. The quick queue excludes explicit item preparation, counters, progression and group conditions; it is a shortlist to inspect, not a guarantee of a short completion time.

  2. Finish a local sweep before travelling

    Combine exploration checkpoints and other nearby objectives with missions you already need. Open the linked map and objective list before leaving. Add candidates to your session checklist, finish the local area, then travel to the next group.

  3. Make a shopping list instead of buying blindly

    Check partially completed style sets first. Separate items you can afford now from Source Mark, event-currency, collection, crafting and random-drop goals. Record missing pieces and exact costs in game; keep expensive or unavailable sets out of a quick-objective session.

    Find style-set rewards and source lists. Use the vendor-circuit video below for a preparation method, then confirm the current vendor inventory and currency yourself.

  4. Read every instance condition before queuing

    Group feats by the actual mission or instance in your session checklist. Pick the required Normal, Elite or Elite Plus variant and agree who handles each mechanic. Compare timing, optional-enemy and no-knockout conditions before the first pull.

    Some objectives conflict, such as defeating an optional target versus keeping it alive. Plan separate attempts when necessary. Related guides and videos provide context; an instance video does not prove that every feat is demonstrated.

  5. Build counters while doing other useful content

    Track repeat-completion, bounty, salvage and collection counters alongside your chosen sessions. Check progress after the attempt. Read all prerequisite feats before chasing a meta-feat reward; do not count the same faction alternative or archived version twice.

  6. Confirm the award and adjust the next session

    Verify the feat popup or menu completion before checking an objective off your personal list. Every 100 feat points gives one skill point. The session total shows potential points from selected objectives, rather than points already earned or a prediction of your exact skill-point gain.

Reviewed the English auto-generated transcript. Supports a vendor style circuit and optional salvage planning; does not establish guaranteed point totals, costs or current vendor inventory. Checked 2026-10-22. Chapters were checked against English automatic captions; the gameplay was not independently retested.

  1. 0:13 - Start a faction-appropriate vendor circuit

    Use Gotham and Metropolis safehouse vendors for your faction. Check which styles are uncollected and which complete an unfinished set before purchasing.

  2. 1:35 - Collect styles before moving to the next vendor

    Collect the intended styles and restore your normal equipment before continuing. Verify the style and set counters in the Feats menu.

  3. 4:14 - Optional salvage pass

    If pursuing salvage feats, check eligibility and protect equipped, valuable and uncollected items before salvaging spare gear. This is optional and consumes the item.

  4. 5:17 - Reduce travel between safehouses

    Use safehouse transport to continue the circuit instead of repeatedly returning to the city warp menu.

  5. 8:28 - Separate Source Mark purchases from the cash circuit

    Inspect currency costs when moving to headquarters vendors. Make a separate plan for Source Mark purchases rather than spending the currency on an unchecked shopping list.
