Fast Learner positive

Fast Learner is an investment trait — it pays nothing today and a great deal six weeks from now.

It boosts XP gain across all skills. Every hour of carpentry, cooking, farming and combat XP arrives faster for the entire run.

Low. On Day One you have no XP to multiply, so the trait feels dead.

Where it shines. As you grind skills, the multiplier compounds and you hit useful skill breakpoints noticeably sooner.

Strong on long runs and weaker on short ones. The longer you survive, the more total XP it has accelerated.

It multiplies skill-book bonuses too, so a Fast Learner with the right books levels key skills dramatically faster than the point cost implies.

Yes for players who commit to long runs; skippable for short, combat-focused playthroughs.

Respected on long-term builds; the common note is that its value is entirely back-loaded.
