Uses

The only use for experience points is to upgrade your powers in the Powers section of the pause menu. Depending on the rank of the power, it will cost more or less. Once all powers have been fully upgraded, you still earn XP, but it no longer has any uses.

Trivia

  • Difficulty has an affect on the amount gained. At Easy you will get more experience than on Hard or Medium. However, it will be more than made up with the vast amount of enemies Cole faces in Hard/Medium. In End of The Road, making the inFamous choice in this mission grants you less XP when playing hard, than playing easy.
  • The best way to get XP is to take your time in the dark parts of the city, as there will be many enemies there. This is best done with Good Cole as the Lightning Bolt will gain more electricity as the dark areas has no power.
