When utilizing Skills, the current Focus Bonus is added onto the total EXP gain. This can be represented with EXP + Focus Bonus%. For example, if a new player starting with a 20% Focus Bonus made Grilled Meat, which has a base EXP of 20, they would earn a total of 24 EXP. A player with a 100% Focus Bonus would earn 40 EXP from the same dish.
