Brotato % XP Gain

Multiplies all forms of XP. Faster levels, faster scaling.

What does % XP Gain do in Brotato?

XP Gain is the leveling-rate stat. Each level grants one stat upgrade with rarity scaling off Luck and wave number. Stacking XP Gain compresses the leveling curve – 50% XP Gain effectively gives you 50% more total stat upgrades over a run. On Engineer (whose mechanic +50% XP for -3 Max HP is built around it) and Soldier-style scaling builds, it's a top-tier value stat.

Tip 2: Diploma is one of the strongest T3 items – an auto-pick on most builds.
