Best characters for Bean Teacher
Characters that pick up Bean Teacher in our curated build pool — with notes on why the combo works where we have them.

6 builds
Bean Teacher adds a massive +50% XP Gain at the cost of a small Lifesteal penalty, which the best Mutant guides avoid anyway, making it one of the strongest XP tools to fuel Mutant’s many level-ups.
Baby
