The Shared Wisdom XP Boost in Destiny 2 is a great way of bolstering the experience rewards you get from completing the various activities, but how does it work? This guide will explain everything you need to know on getting the XP boost, and how you can use it to quickly farm experience.
With the release of the Witch Queen expansion, players are busy grinding their way to the new Power caps in preparation for the new Raid. Alongside completing the campaign and getting gear drops that way, players can also quickly level up their Season Pass to get free exotic engrams and other handy resources to help get their Guardian the best loadout. Shared Wisdom can help you do that but at a faster rate, if you know how it all works.
Getting Shared Wisdom XP Boost in Destiny 2
Shared Wisdom is automatically applied whenever you’re part of a Fireteam and you or another player have the unlocked one or several ‘Small Fireteam XP Boost’ items from the current Season Pass.
Each XP Boost grants a 2% bonus boost to any XP earned from activities you do while you’re actually busy exploring or gunning down enemies of the Light. For example, if you’re completing bounties, you’ll get the bonus, but if you’re just in orbit in your ship, you won’t.
The Shared Wisdom XP Boost maxes out at 8% and you won’t need a full Fireteam in order to max it out. The bonus comes from the player in your party with the greatest Fireteam XP Bonus (up to 8%).
You can check the % boost to XP earned from Shared Wisdom by going to your ‘Character’ screen.

How to Farm XP With Shared Wisdom Boost in Destiny 2
You can earn a ton of XP by completing as many bounties as you possibly can, but not turning them in until you’ve got someone in your Fireteam to make use of the max Shared Wisdom XP boost of 8%.
At this point, go ahead and turn in all of your bounties and you’ll earn a ton of additional XP, helping you level up quickly. It’s a simple method, but one that’s rather effective.
