Difficulty guide for Outriders
Difficulty in Outriders depends on the World Tier you’re playing in. This means that the World Tier you’re playing in will influence the difficulty by affecting your health, armor, damage of enemies, and the quality of loot that you can get from drops. If you’re wondering how World Tier works, you’ll get access to a specific World Tier depending on how well you play. These are calculated by your performance in quests and mission so the better you play, the more you’ll get World Tier experience to unlock the next World Tiers.
If you’ve progressed through the World Tiers and wish to play on a lower World Tier, then you can simply choose a lower tier from the menu. However, you can’t really do this if you want to play on higher World Tiers that aren’t unlocked yet as they need more World Tier Experience. Also, one thing to note is that you’ll lose World Tier experience every time you die.
