# Consumables

Consumables provide short-term Efficiency boosts to individual Interns.

***

## Consumables

Consumables are temporary boosts that last **24 hours** and can be applied to a single Intern. Each Intern can have a maximum of **1 Consumable active** at a time.

### Pack Cost: 25 $CASH

Each Consumable Pack contains one Consumable — either a **flat boost** (additive Efficiency) or a **multiplier boost** (percentage Efficiency). Both types share the same pack, giving you 12 possible outcomes.

### Flat Boosts

Flat boosts add a fixed amount of Efficiency to the Intern they're applied to.

### Multiplier Boosts

Multiplier boosts increase the Intern's Efficiency by a percentage of their base value.

### How They Stack

Flat and multiplier boosts work differently depending on which Intern you apply them to:

* **Uncommon Intern (300)** + Rare flat boost (+50) = **350 Efficiency** for 24 hours
* **Epic Intern (2,000)** × Epic multiplier (1.2) = **2,400 Efficiency** for 24 hours

Multiplier boosts scale with the Intern's base Efficiency, making them significantly more valuable on higher-rarity Interns.

### Strategy Notes

Consumables are not always worth their 25 $CASH cost. Their value depends entirely on which Intern you apply them to:

* On a **Common Intern** (100 efficiency), the average consumable barely moves the needle — often negative expected value.
* On an **Epic Intern** (2,000 efficiency), you're roughly breaking even.
* On a **Legendary or Mythic Intern**, consumables are clearly profitable.

**Optimal play:** Save your best consumables for your highest-rarity Interns. A Mythic multiplier (+200%) on a Mythic intern (20,000) gives you 60,000 effective Efficiency from that single desk for 24 hours.
