Difficulty and Online Mode Multipliers

Here’s how they affect your XP earnings:
Difficulty Multipliers:
| Difficulty | Multiplier |
|---|
| Rookie | 1.0 |
| Veteran | 1.2 |
| All-Star | 1.5 |
| Hall of Fame | 1.8 |
| Legend | 2.2 |

Tips to Earn PXP Faster and Smarter
1. Target High-Value Actions
Home runs, strikeouts, wins, and triples give the highest PXP per event. Prioritize power hitters and dominant strikeout pitchers to speed up your grind.
2. Play on Higher Difficulty
Although harder, the higher difficulty provides better returns. Use All-Star or above if you can consistently perform. Even CPU games offer this boost.
3. Use Online Mode
Online games provide a ×1.5 bonus to all earned PXP. If you’re confident, use this to fast-track your parallel upgrades.
4. Grind Both Offense and Defense
Many players forget pitching stats. A balanced game that includes innings pitched, strikeouts, and saves can double your overall PXP per game.
With CalcViva, you can analyze which area, hitting or pitching, is contributing more and adjust your team or gameplay accordingly.
