¶ Overview: Realms
Realms were the first ever asset to be minted in the Realmverse. They are "worlds" with diverse metadata etched into the blockchain by it's owners through its lifetime. This article will highlight some the basic traits of a Realm.
Realms offer a more passive route to participation in the Realmverse through their ability to produce Collectibles on cycles that max out every six days and attract $ANIMA stakers to receive $ANIMA rewards. Over time, Realmers can build on the potential power of their Realms by increasing population capacity, boosting production output, and engaging in other features soon to come.
¶ Supply
- There are 5016 Realms
- No more Realms will ever be minted
¶ Realm Traits
¶ Basic Traits: Geo Features
Realms have three Geo Features that provide diversity to a Realm. Realmers have the opportunity to change one of their geo traits once a year, through a process called “Terraforming.” The Geo Features of a Realm affect which collectibles they can produce at differing rarities.
Exotic Geo Features will be highlighted in a yellow circle in the Realm UI.
¶ A Realm's Geo Traits
Note the highlight around “Volcano” indicating this Geo Trait is exotic.
There are 4 classes of Geo Features:
- Nourishment
- Valley (Exotic) | Prairie | River | Biosphere | Pond | Canal | Lagoon | Oasis | Waterfall
- Aquatic
- Ocean (Exotic) | Sea | Lake | Fjord | Cove | Gulf | Bay | Reef
- Technology
- Tundra (Exotic) | Desert | Cave | Cape | Peninsula | Swamp | Dune | Island | Geyser
- Earthen
- Volcano (Exotic) | Basin | Plateau | Mesa | Ice Shelf | Glacier | Butte | Canyon | Mountain
¶ Basic Traits: Natural Resources
Natural Resources were established based on the activity performed in the first epoch of the Realmverse, known as Season 1.
Natural Resources are forever a part of your Realm and do not change. They provide rarity and have an effect on your Realms productive capabilities.
There are five different resource score metrics:
- Mineral Deposits
- Land Abundance
- Aquatic Resources
- Ancient Artifacts
- Total Resources (sum of all individual resource scores)
Note on Utility: A Realm's total Natural Resources score is used to calculate $PARTICLE yield from exploration.
¶ Detailed Traits
- Collectibles Used: the amount of collectibles a Realm has burned constructing structures
- Anima Staking Capacity: how much $ANIMA can be staked on a Realm
- Days Until Terraform: how long until a Realm can be Terraformed (RNG change of one Geo Trait)
- Population: metric based on staked cities that determines how many Adventurers can explore on the Realm
- Rename available at: how many days until a Realm can be renamed
- Discovered: when the Realm was minted
- Explorers: how many Adventurer's are currently exploring the realm
- Total Particle Captured: how much $PARTICLE this Realm has emitted in its lifetime
¶ Utility
¶ Collectible Production
All realms have the ability to produce collectibles, the building blocks of all structures found in the Realmverse.
There are two ways to produce Collectibles:
- Realm Production
- Ancient Particle Reactor Production (increased output boost by 100%)
The collectible production interface in Realmverse. More info on collectibles here
¶ Geo Traits and Production
- Geo Traits determine what kind of collectibles your Realm produces.
- Every Realm can produce common collectibles from any Category
- Exotic Geo Traits are the only kind that allow a Realm to produce exotic collectibles.
Tip: Many Realmers find that Realms with diverse Geo Trait types are more desirable because they can produce more types of collectibles at higher rarities.
¶ The 4 collectible Types and their related Geo Traits
| Collectible Type | Geo Traits |
|---|---|
| Nourishment | Valley, Prairie, River, Biosphere, Pond, Canal, Lagoon, Oasis, Waterfall |
| Aquatic | Ocean, Sea, Lake, Fjord, Cove, Gulf, Bay, Reef |
| Technology | Tundra, Desert, Cave, Cape, Peninsula, Swamp, Dune, Island, Geyser |
| Earthen | Volcano, Basin, Plateau, Mesa, Ice Shelf, Glacier, Butte, Canyon, Mountain |
¶ *Important Notes About Production
- Your production capacity is capped at 6 days, meaning any time over 6 days does not increase your yield.
- You can increase your collectibles yield by increasing your Realm's "Productivity Score"
¶ $ANIMA Staking
Stakers can now single side stake Anima, and earn attractive boosts by staking their positions to Realms, as Realm owners compete to have the most attractive staking destination. Realm owners can build their "Anima Refinery Capacity" to earn rewards from Anima staked to their Realm.
More info can be found here.
¶ Monument Staking: Homage
Realms can stake monuments to offer for The Rift. This activity increases the realm's $ANIMA refinery staking capacity and provides Adventurers with Materials in exchange for burning $ANIMA. More info can be found here
¶ Research Lab: Crafting
Adventurers are able to visit Realms Research Labs to craft Peripherals. Realmers are rewarded with Productivity, which increases $ANIMA staking yield and collectible production capacity. More details can be found here.
¶ City Staking: Exploration
Note: Exploration is temporarily paused after deprecation of $PARTICLE emissions. We're working on reworking the exploration mechanics with new exciting features
Realmers can stake city structures to provide the population capacity needed to host Adventurers for exploration. here.
Exploration yields $PARTICLE for both the Realm owner and the visiting Adventurer. More info can be found
