10 Outriders Tips You Need To Know



Outriders changes quickly as you progress in the early hours, so we gathered 10 essential tips to get you on your feet and get better loot!

Outriders is now out for Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, PS5, PS4, PC, and Stadia. For the most part, the loot shooter/RPG hybrid is pretty straightforward, but a few of its mechanics and systems could use a bit more clarification.

In the video above, Jordan Ramée details 10 tips for how to be a better Outrider in Outriders. Some of the advice is geared towards ensuring you’re always finding the best loot, whether that’s from chests hidden throughout the planet of Enoch or from World Tier rewards. Other tips should help you make Outriders a bit more approachable in terms of difficulty–if you take the time to understand how crafting and modding works, as well as when to raise and lower your World Tier, you’ll have a much easier time making it through the game.

Outriders has managed a rather popular launch despite the assortment of server issues that are pretty much an expected part of the experience for any brand-new, online-only game at this point. So far, we’ve been enjoying it too.

In GameSpot’s Outriders review, Phil Hornshaw wrote, “[Outriders’] story is often funny but similarly intense; its combat requires you to take cover and to charge; its abilities make you phenomenally powerful but prone to overestimating yourself. If you can find the balance in Outriders, People Can Fly’s RPG-shooter finds ways to combine well-worn video game ideas into something new and fun.”

  1. There is a penalty for lowering your world tier apparently, I’ve not tried it myself, but apparently all quests you haven’t turned in will be level capped to the lowest world tier, to prevent people playing on tier 1 and get tier 15 rewards for example

  3. One tip that will always come in handy; "Remember – switching to your pistol is always faster than reloading". Switching to your other two guns will come in REAL handy later on. Especially when you're getting overwhelmed. Another tip that I have is to sometimes save some low health goons. Don't finish them off as killing is the only way to heal yourself back up, so sometimes weakening everyone is better than outright finishing them off.

  4. People complaining about the servers must not realize every always online looter shooter, or hell anyway always online game has server problems the first couple days or week(s) of launch.

  5. There's absolutely a world tier penalty for changing. It sets the rewards to the new world tier cap. So potential Epic loot will become Rare or Common for example. It's literally written what the rewards are as you select it. It's tied to the mission & area too. So if you decide to kill a boss on WT1 then change to WT6 when claiming the reward in a different area, you'll receive WT1 rewards.
