Super Mario RPG has arrived on Nintendo Switch, bringing the classic RPG to a modern platform. As the RPG part suggests, this game features level-ups and stats, which are important early on. While there is a flat stat bonus whenever a character levels up, the level up bonus provides an important choice. You can choose to get extra stats in one of three categories, but certain ones will provide better boosts early on. Here’s which level up bonuses you should choose in Super Mario RPG.

Which Level up Bonuses To Pick in Super Mario RPG

There are three options available for the level up bonus in Super Mario RPG. These are Physical, HP, and Magic. Physical provides both physical attack and defense increases. HP provides more HP and Magic provides both magic attack and defense. The best bonus early on is Physical. The reason is that the boost to attack damage will get you through early fights much quicker. The quicker you get through fights, the less you have to worry about taking damage and healing.

Some characters like Mallow are better with magic, but early on your resource pool is small, so you can’t use magic very often. Since you will have to rely on physical attacks the most early in Super Mario RPG, it makes sense to level that the most. HP isn’t a bad second option, as it’s always nice to have more health, but the physical defense is more beneficial early on. Many of the early game enemies rely on physical attacks, so the extra defense will minimize how much damage you are taking.

After the first handful of levels, you will want to start mixing it up depending on each character’s skill set. Picking physical for all of your early level up bonuses will let you brute force for awhile, but eventually you will need to start mixing in more magic and HP.
