Fortnite Battle Royale players can earn XP from various sources. Many in-game actions — such as opening chests and eliminating enemies — grant experience points. However, these efforts generally yield only a tiny percentage of those points.

Fortunately, the Superchard XP allows players to receive a multiplier on almost every in-game action. For example, opening a chest without it in Fortnite grants 100 XP. However, players who have the bonus can receive up to 1,200 XP. This means that the mechanic can increase the leveling process' speed by 12 times, which is incredible.
