The Powerup Multiplier is one of many stats in Megabonk, and it's essential to understand how it works.
Like all stats, the Powerup Multiplier affects how your build operates on a run. However, it doesn't directly impact the effectiveness of your build. Instead, it's more about Powerups and how they operate in Megabonk.
How does the Powerup Multiplier work in Megabonk
In a nutshell, the Powerup Multiplier amplifies the effects of any Powerup that you find on your run.
Powerups are different from tomes, weapons, and items. They look like items, but they're only temporary. The effects of a Powerup usually last for a limited amount of time. The Powerup Multiplier influences this number.

The higher your Powerup Multiplier stat, the better the impact. If you have a Powerup that amplifies the damage, having a high value on Powerup Multiplier will cause more damage. Similarly, Powerups will last longer when the Multiplier value is high.
You can raise the Powerup Multiplier stat by using suitable items and tomes. We have a tome and item tier list to determine which ones you'll prioritize for Powerups.
I would highly recommend that everyone invest well in the Powerup Multiplier stat. Powerups work well with any build. Naturally, powering them up should work well in every situation. Do note that Powerups spawn randomly, but you can raise the frequency with Powerup Drop Chance.
We have a detailed explainer if you want to know more about what every character stat means. There are plenty of stats to master, some of which are extremely important. The sooner you understand these stats, the better you'll be able to go for a meta build.
