A: Lunchboxes are consumable items that you can open to gain a boost to the Experience Points (XP) you earn as well as one of eight random buff effects. Additionally, any player in your vicinity when opening a Lunchbox will also receive the XP Boost as well as one of the possible buff effects. Other players may not get the same effect as you.

XP Boost
Each Lunchbox that affects you increases the XP you gain from all sources by 25%. This effect will stack up to 100% total bonus. Any Lunchboxes that affect you when you are at the 100% bonus effect will refresh the effect timer.
The XP Boost lasts for 60 minutes and is paused when you leave the game.

There are 8 possible effects, and players can only have a single copy of an effect on them at a time; if the player were to receive the same effect, the timer for the effect is refreshed.
