Progression

Raise Your Clearance Level. Gain XP by playing the game. The more XP that you gain, the higher clearance level you will reach. In the final game, Clearance level grants you access to more content in the game.

Accumulate Renown. As you play the game, you will also gain Renown. You can use renown to unlock Operators, as well as acquire attachments for your different weapons.

Clearance Level and Renown Reset. When the Closed Beta ends, your progression will be wiped from your account, as this is not the final version of the game.

Tips and Tricks

One life. No Respawns. Make sure that you make your life count. Make sure that your risks are calculated. This is applicable to all modes of Rainbow Six (PvP and PvE).

Use your observation tools,** and destroy your opponent’s!**

  • As Attackers, you can bring up the drone’s camera feed (provided that they have not been destroyed). 
  • As Defenders, you can bring up the security camera feed to keep an eye on enemy movements. 
  • When using an observation tool, you can Scan for Enemies. When detected, the enemy position is revealed to your entire team.
  • While in Support Mode (once you’ve been killed), both Attackers and Defenders can see through their teammates’ point of view and available observation tools’ feeds. 

Always communicate. Communication saves lives and alerts teammates to the presence and location of enemy combatants, as well as the position of the objective location.

  • At the bottom of your screen, there is a compass as well as map name locations which you can use for more precise communications with your team.
  • You can use the Ping, while controlling an Operator, to point out a location to your team.
  • You can use the Enemy Scan, while in observation tools, to let your teammates know about an enemy position.

Minimize your target profile. You can lean around objects and corners. Additionally, you can crouch to duck under half-covers throughout the engagement zone. You can also prone.

Rappel everywhere. No matter if you’re attacking or defending, be aware that Attackers can use rappelling to their advantage.
