== CHIMPS (XP farming) ==

Obtaining all possible upgrades from the Rogue XP shop requires a little over 170,000 XP~~, so an~~ efficient way to obtaining enough XP is to play CHIMPS mode with a high amount of curses and reaching the highest stage possible as the largest source of XP are Final Bosses. In general, 3 to 4 campaigns reaching stages 15-20 are usually enough to obtain the necessary XP. In the following table is a list of all curses and a recommendation if the player should or should not enable them XP farming runs.

Merchants that provide Rogue XP from Stages 2-4 can provide a guaranteed reward of Rogue XP, which is worth it for players willing to take a risk against later Stages but want to avoid going past Stage 5. Buying Rogue XP from Merchants can slow down the capability to survive into the Final Boss if getting an unlucky Boss+Map combination (e.g. [[Vortex (BTD6)|Vortex]] on [[Dark Castle (BTD6)|Dark Castle]]). However, a proper late stage ~~stratagy~~ can earn thousands of Rogue XP per stage without much effort necessary~~, so,~~ overall, the Merchants for Rogue XP should only be done as an extra challenge.
