Leveling in Fallout 76 is now more important than ever - you can get SCORE points by leveling and you need to scrap perk cards to get legendary perk coins.
WAYS TO GET % BONUS EXPERIENCE
100% from Lunchboxes.One lunchbox gives us 25%, but you can stack four of them to get 100%
25% from various food with Carnivore or Herbivore mutation and Strange in Numbers perk card.
Personally, i think that Herbivore food is easier to craft.
15% from level 3 perk card "Inspirational".
5% from Sleeping in your bed. There are three variants of this effect (1h/2h/3h).
5% from Booblehead: Leader. By default boobleheads' effects works only 1 hour, although you can expand it to 2 hours by using "Curator" perk card
5% from effect "Wisdom of Mothman" which you can get by interacting with Wise Mothman after finishing Event: The Path to Enlightenment.
5% from magazine Live & Love 8. Remember that it only works when in Team.
HOW INTELLIGENCE AFFECTS EXPERIENCE
A lot of research confirmed that INT in FO76 affects experience.
It turns out that experience math looks the same as Fallout 4 math:
Final XP = Base XP x( 1 + 0.03xINT )

WAYS TO GET BONUS INTELLIGENCE:
1. You can boost your INT by eating:
Brain Bombs (7, Herbivore) or Brain Fungus soup (5, Herbivore)
Broiled Scorchbeast Brain (7, Carnivore)
2. Chems also boost your INT, and the best INT boost chem are Berry Mentats (5)
They last only 5 minutes but you can expand it to 12,5 minutes by using "Chem Fiend" perk card and BioCommMesh armor modification.
3. Be sure to always play in Casual Team which guarantees 4 INT.
4. Armor is also opportunity to get bonus INT.
Unyielding armor gives us +3 to all stats (except END) when we are on low health.

You can get additional 5 INT from armor's major legendary effect (1x5).
PATCH 20: HERBIVORE AND CARNIVORE MUTATIONS
After changes made in Patch 20, we can now get 2x effects from food.
Which means that e.g Cranberry Relish gives us 10% bonus XP without mutation.
Also, remember that "Strange in Numbers" perk card affects these mutations.
