WARDOGS FIELD MANUAL

Understand Career, role XP and unlock costs

Read the track, level requirement and two kinds of purchase before planning an unlock.

Browse all WARDOGS topics

Find the item’s progression track and required level, then distinguish the one-time unlock payment from the price of buying it for a deployment. Plan with the current season’s requirements.

EconomyReviewed 2026-09-13Official Season 1 changes; pre-launch explanation of unlock spending

Before you start

  • Your current level in the relevant track.
  • The target item’s exact unlock requirement.
  • Its unlock cost and separate deployment cost, where documented.

Read all requirements

The Medic walkthrough distinguishes each item’s level requirement, upfront unlock payment and subsequent vendor purchase. A budget needs room for both payments when buying newly unlocked equipment.

  1. Identify the track named on the item.
  2. Compare its required level with your own.
  3. Budget the unlock payment separately.
  4. Reserve money for the item and its supporting components in the next deployment.

    Review date. Pre-launch creator walkthrough: Field Resuscitator 0:57; IFAK 2:21; defibrillator 2:51; Medical Bag 3:32. Historical item behavior, not verified current prices or precise revive timings.

Use the current progression schedule

BULKHEAD states that XP curves and item ordering can differ by season. Season 1 moved Artillery Tank to Career 90 and Heavy Tank to Driver 35. Old unlock charts can therefore be wrong even when the item name has not changed.

The announcement publishes selected XP bands rather than every level. A planner cannot fill missing thresholds by assuming equal intervals between those bands.

Plan without inventing a grind time

Our recommended planner output is the next known requirement and the documented cost still needed. When a level threshold is missing, report that missing input instead of calculating a precise answer.

A reliable time estimate would also need your measured XP rate for the relevant activity. Another player’s unusually successful match is not a dependable hours-to-unlock forecast.

    Common problems

    • A role level is not interchangeable with the Career level.
    • An unlock cost is not the price of the equipped item.
    • A full current XP table and persistence or seasonal-reset policy still require separate evidence.
