The Gameplay experience of Nine Chronicles consists of numerous engaging elements that cater to all kinds of players; from the most casual to the most competitive ones. Throughout their journey in the Nine Chronicles ecosystem, players have to make various decisions on how to approach the game and optimize their character growth in Nine Chronicles. {% embed url="" %} Nine Chronicles Steam Strailer {% endembed %} The elements that make Nine Chronicles a unique game with true decentralization are: * [Adventure](/introduction/intro/game-contents/adventure) * [Arena :: PvP Competition](/introduction/intro/game-contents/arena-pvp-competition) * [World Boss :: Raid](/introduction/intro/game-contents/world-boss-raid) * [Adventure Boss](/introduction/intro/game-contents/adventure-boss) * [Item](/introduction/intro/items) ownership on the blockchain * [Shop](/introduction/intro/shop)[ ](broken://pages/lZBSc7DMOUyRwiDHDPq3)in an active economy with no limitations * Competitive PvP and PvE events with [$NCG](/introduction/tokenomics/what-is-ncg) rewards # Adventure ## Introduction
The Adventure is the core gameplay mode in Nine Chronicles and the foundation of the in-game economy. Players face fierce opponents throughout the stages of the five available worlds. The Campaign currently consists of 400 unique stages and players have to fight through each of them to reach the end of the Nine Chronicles world! ## The Nine Worlds Each world in the Nine Chronicles realm contains 50 stages. The 50th Stage of each World contains the Boss of the world and poses a significant challenge for the players. As of now, these are the available worlds in Nine Chronicles: **World 1-3 (Yggdrasil, Alfheim, Svartalfheim) :** These are the early game stages, designed to allow players to progress smoothly. Adjustments have been made to monster specs and reduced required cooking specs to provide an experience where players gradually become stronger through equipment crafting and usage. **World 4-7 (Asgard, Muspelheim, Jotunheim, Niflheim) :** Each world offers unique monsters and stages, requiring various strategies and equipment to clear. From this point, clearly stronger equipment and skills are needed. **World 8 (Helheim) :** This world is themed around Hel, the goddess of death from Asgard. The strongest equipment tier, Sacred Tier has been introduced, along with various updates including new skills, ATK, and SPD foods. Future content after World 9 will include cyclical content, an item compendium, costume and pet growth systems, providing a more diverse experience. ## Entering Stage
Players enter various stages in Adventure mode. Each stage features different monsters and challenges, and clearing these stages rewards players with experience points and various other rewards based on their progression.
While it will be described in more detail in Actions and Transactions, it is necessary to briefly explain the main energy mechanism of The Adventure. To enter any stage, players have to spend Action Points. Every stage fight requires 5 Action Points. Once players deplete their action points by entering the stages, they can refresh their Action Points and continue battling by using the Prosperity Meter. The Prosperity Meter refreshes every *1700 blocks* or approximately 4.5 hours. Alternatively, players can refresh their Action Points by using Action Points Potions at any time. ## Battle
Battles are automated, but strategic preparation is crucial during the pre-battle phase. Players earn experience points by defeating enemies and clearing stages. Each stage is divided into three waves, with rewards (including EXP) given at each phase - achieving one star in the initial phase grants EXP. The stages get progressively more difficult as players pass through the different worlds and more complex strategies have to be devised to be able to challenge them. The number and traits of enemies vary between the stages, and the elements and attacks of the enemies differ between the different worlds. By winning against enemies in the campaign stages, players are rewarded with materials that are used to craft valuable items. As they defeat harder opponents and progress through the stages, they are rewarded with more valuable materials and are able to create stronger items while increasing the strength of their character. Players can find information on what Materials will be rewarded on the Information page of the Adventure stages. ### Sweep & Repeat
After clearing a stage, players can use the repeat function to continuously challenge the same stage to gain additional EXP and rewards. This auto-repeat feature allows for efficient farming of Exp and material items. # Arena :: PvP Competition ## Introduction
Arena is a competitive feature of the decentralized role-playing game, Nine Chronicles. It allows players to challenge each other in battles to earn in-game rewards such as NCG (Nine Chronicles Gold) and exclusive NFTs. The arena seasons provide a structured format where players can compete weekly to climb the rankings and earn a share of a substantial reward pool. This arena setup not only enhances the game's competitive aspect but also provides a play-to-earn opportunity, rewarding active and skilled players. ## Fun Elements for Players
The Nine Chronicles Arena offers players various enjoyable elements, including strategic PvP battles, staking opportunities, and the chance to earn exclusive seasonal rewards. Players are motivated by the thrill of climbing the leaderboard and the prospect of gaining rare NFTs and substantial NCG rewards. The arena fosters a competitive environment where both skill and strategy are crucial, and the continuous updates and varied challenges keep the gameplay fresh and engaging. At the end of the season, the final Arena rankings can be viewed on the Nine Chronicles portal: ## Season Composition and Rewards by Type
Arena seasons typically last for about a month, encompassing several weeks of competitions. Each season is divided into weekly segments where players can earn rewards at the end of each week. For example, Arena Season 0 had a total reward pool of 896K NCG and 240 season-exclusive NFTs, with weekly NCG rewards distributed to the top-ranking players. Moreover, end-of-season rewards included prestigious titles and mythical-grade costumes. The rewards are designed to incentivize both participation and high performance, ensuring that all players have opportunities to benefit from their efforts. ## Reward Distribution Logic and Contribution to NCG Ecosystem The reward distribution in Nine Chronicles Arena is based on a combination of player rankings and accrued medals, which reflect their participation and performance. At the end of each season, the NCG reward pool is divided among participants according to their share of medals. This system ensures that even less experienced or lower-ranked players receive some rewards, promoting broad engagement. Additionally, the staking mechanism allows players to lock up NCG to earn extra rewards, thus reducing the circulating supply and potentially increasing the value of NCG. This structure not only rewards player activity but also helps maintain a balanced and sustainable in-game economy. # World Boss :: Raid ## Introduction
The World Boss in Nine Chronicles is the first feature allowing multiple users to participate simultaneously, combining cooperation and competition for better rewards. Fenrir and Sehrimnir the World Boss, and players share a global HP to fight together, paving the way for encountering stronger bosses. The newly premiered ‘World Boss’ is the first feature that Nine Chronicles presents where multiple users can participate simultaneously. Players can now cooperate and compete at the same time for better and better rewards. ## Configuration
The World Boss is unlocked after clearing Stage 50, with its season lasting for 1 week followed by a two-week off-season. Each battle comprises 5 waves, with the boss growing stronger as you progress. Players receive a "Battle Grade" after completing each battle, which affects the rewards. Each player is given three tickets daily, with additional tickets available for purchase using NCG. ## Rewards In the World Boss, players enjoy the thrill of cooperating and competing to meet stronger bosses and earn various rewards. Post-battle, they receive rewards based on battle grades, boss kills, and season standings, providing a sense of accomplishment . ### **Battle Reward**
Battle rewards will be given according to individual battles. The reward will be given immediately after the battle. ### **Battle Grade Reward**
Battle Grade Reward will be given each time you have a breakthrough to the next grade. In other words, if you start with B-Grade but move on to A-Grade, you will get a reward. This reward will be refreshed every season. Theoretically, you can get up to 5 Battle Grade (including achieving D-Grade) rewards during one season. ### **Boss Kill Reward**
Boss Kill Reward will be given out to the players who participated once the boss has been killed. The reward will vary according to the number of participation and ranks. ### **Season Reward**
Season Rewards will be given out once the season is over. Rewards will vary according to the ranking & monster collection levels (Bonus rewards for Monster Collection will be updated with future versions). # Adventure Boss ## Introduction
The "Adventure Boss" system is an exciting new addition to Nine Chronicles, where players can engage in challenging battles with bosses while competing for coveted rewards. This content introduces a unique mechanism where the game world is brought to life through user-driven events. Players categorize into two main roles: operating users and participating users. Operating users set bounties to open up content, effectively investing in the game's ecosystem. The gameplay spans across a world map with varying boss battles, offering a rich and dynamic experience. Participating users, on the other hand, take on the role of combating these bosses to earn rewards. This system fosters a competitive yet collaborative environment where both types of players can benefit significantly from each encounter. ## **Fun and Rewards for Operators**
Operating users, or investors, will find a great sense of excitement and fulfillment in setting bounties and initiating content for the entire player base. This role offers a strategic element of investment where users determine the bounty amount and directly influence the game’s dynamics by deciding when and which bosses to deploy. The competitive edge of vying for the top position in bounty contributions adds an extra layer of thrill. The rewards for operating users include exclusive bonuses based on their investment and the number of participants attracted to the content they initiate. This not only provides monetary satisfaction but also a sense of achievement and recognition within the community, making the entire experience deeply rewarding. ## **Fun and Rewards for Participants**
Participating users engage in the direct combat aspect of the Adventure Boss system. They face off against formidable bosses unleashed by operating users, aiming to secure the highest possible scores and rankings. This opens up a dynamic play environment where strategy, timing, and skill come into play, providing a highly engaging and competitive experience. Successful players are rewarded with various loot, points, and hierarchical rewards based on their performance in boss battles. The sense of accomplishment from overcoming challenging opponents and the thrill of competing against peers for top rankings contribute to an enriching gameplay experience. ## The Decentralized Nature of Game Operations and Positive Impact on the NCG Economy
One of the most innovative aspects of the Adventure Boss content is its decentralized approach to game operations. By allowing users to set bounties and decide on the rewards, the game shifts part of its control from the developers to the players. This participatory mechanism ensures that content availability and reward distribution are flexible, dynamic, and directly influenced by player activity. This decentralized system positively impacts the NCG (Nine Chronicles Gold) economy by creating new opportunities for spending and earning NCG. Operating users invest NCG to set bounties, and rewards are distributed in NCG, fostering a self-sustaining economy within the game. As more users engage in setting and participating in bounties, the circulation of NCG increases, thereby enhancing the overall economic health and player engagement in Nine Chronicles. # Collection ## Introduce
The Nine Chronicles Collection System is where players collect specific items and submit them to unlock new stats. This system adds more fun to the game and motivates players to revisit previously explored stages to obtain various rewards. ## Benefit The Collection System offers 2 types of stats: "+ stat" and "% stat". For example, if your attack power is 30 and you unlock "+50 ATK" and "50% ATK," the final result will give you a higher attack power. The stats include HP, ATK, DEF, CRI, HIT, SPD and CDMG. ## Required Items
* **Equipment**: Collect and submit specific equipment such as ancient swords and shields. Some equipment may require an upgrade level (e.g., 5 ancient swords at +4, etc.). * **Costumes**: Collect and submit specific costumes. This allows you to unlock new stats. * **Titles**: Collect and submit specific titles. Collecting titles along with other items will grant you permanent stats. * **Food**: Includes special items such as Golden Meat. These are used for collection registration and food crafting. * **Materials**: Collect and submit materials like Ruby Dust and Golden Dust. Ruby Dust can be obtained as a reward from Monster Collection. All required items must be submitted at once, and items will not be returned after submission, so careful consideration is needed. ## Significance The fun elements of the Collection System include intuitive and rewarding character growth, as well as the challenging aspect of collecting specific items. By collecting and submitting items, players can enhance their character's stats, which can be utilized in various game content. The Collection System diversifies gameplay and enhances the game's longevity by encouraging item collection and exploration. This provides players with a richer experience and allows them to enjoy the unique gameplay of Nine Chronicles. # Season Pass ## Introduce The Nine Chronicles Season Pass is a product that allows players to earn rewards by gaining experience points and leveling up through various game content. Here are the features of the Season Pass: ## How to level up Players can earn pass experience points through Adventure, Arena, and World Boss content. As the pass level increases, various rewards can be obtained. ## Type
* **Premium**: Purchasing the Premium product allows you to obtain additional rewards from the Premium tab. * **Premium+**: The Premium+ product grants a large amount of pass experience points immediately, along with additional rewards. For example, purchasing Premium+ instantly gives you 13,350 pass experience points, allowing you to reach level 14 from level 0. ## Rewards
Even after reaching the maximum level (level 30), you can continue to receive repeat rewards each time you level up. Additionally, certain Season Passes may include exclusive rewards such as limited edition titles. The Season Pass provides players with additional experience points and various exclusive rewards, offering more incentives and benefits to enhance their gameplay experience. # Patrol Rewards ## Introduce
* The Patrol Reward is a reward players receive after defeating small creatures that raid villages. * You can see the Patrol Reward icon when you enter the lobby, and your character will continuously perform patrol activities. * Pressing the 'Claim Reward' button starts the patrol reward timer, and you can collect rewards every 12 hours, regardless of whether you are online or offline. ## Rewards Detail
* Patrol Rewards can be claimed every 12 hours, and you will receive a certain amount of Crystals and Silver Dust depending on your level. * Silver Dust is used to summon the 'Nimble Aura.' ## Event and Rewards Boosting During event periods, Patrol Rewards are increased compared to normal times. For example, the reward collection time may be reduced from 12 hours to 6 hours, and the reward quantities may be doubled. Patrol Reward system allows you to receive rewards even when you are not actively playing the game. It helps maintain continuous participation and rewards. # Time & Block ## Blockchain & Time Block time is a measuring unit of the time it takes to produce a new block in a blockchain network. In the Nine Chronicles world, time is measured not on traditional units of time (seconds, minutes) but in blocks. Various in-game operations require a certain amount of time before they can be completed. This amount of time is represented in the number of blocks for each operation. Block time can vary based on network performance and block difficulty but is on average approximately 10 seconds in the Nine Chronicles network. ![Average Block time and Difficulty in Nine Chronicles](https://1559839972-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2Fk52GDFQC2iLkf9e0z5MU%2Fuploads%2FO2zQk9yAphrdzmwZPVix%2FTime2.png?alt=media\&token=ce81752c-11c1-4932-90c3-c6612cb6c821) The most important in-game operations which require a certain amount of time to be completed are: * Round refresh for the Arena​ * ​Crafting & Upgrading​ * Action Points refresh via the Prosperity Meter​ ## Arena Refresh Timer Every round in the arena, players have five tickets at their disposal, which they can use in the span of **2,800** blocks. As soon as the 2,800 blocks pass, the tickets are replenished and a new round begins. One arena week currently lasts 112,000 blocks or 40 Rounds**.** At the end of the arena week the results are tallied, leaderboards reset and players are able to start fighting anew.
![Remaining blocks and time before a new arena round begins.](https://1559839972-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2Fk52GDFQC2iLkf9e0z5MU%2Fuploads%2FgkCp0PUR7MBOHcPsChTF%2FTime1.png?alt=media\&token=58d17797-b65e-4ebe-89b9-0e423398025a) ## The Prosperity Meter & Action Points The Campaign is the main gameplay element in Nine Chronicles. In order for players to enter a stage in the Campaign, they have to use five Action Points. When players run out of action points they can use the Prosperity meter to refill their Action Points. The Prosperity meter can be used once 1700 blocks have passed since the last time it was used. Action Points required to enter a Campaign StageRemaining Blocks before the Prosperity Meter can be used ![Action Points required to enter a Campaign Stage](https://1559839972-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2Fk52GDFQC2iLkf9e0z5MU%2Fuploads%2FHHZ3CZC0F2IJNtWDNUNG%2FTime7.png?alt=media\&token=4b9be4fd-c450-4959-b177-b5d2addf9433) ![Remaining Blocks before the Prosperity Meter can be used](https://1559839972-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2Fk52GDFQC2iLkf9e0z5MU%2Fuploads%2Fiaonlso30rsbudl2uM6J%2FTime6.png?alt=media\&token=24873291-5a67-4caa-a726-bcb56489797d) ## Action Points Potions Another way for users to replenish their Action Points is by using Action Points Potions (AP Potions). AP Potions can be used at any given time to refill the Action Points of a player and give them the ability to continue fighting in the campaign without having to wait for the Prosperity Meter to replenish AP Potions can be distinguished between tradeable and non-tradeable and can be acquired: * By completing certain Campaign stages for the first time (Non-tradeable) * In the in-game shop (Tradeable) * As rewards from the Monster Collection (Tradeable) ## The Crafting Queue As previously discussed in the Crafting and Upgrading sections, when items are being crafted or upgraded, they are processed via the Crafting Queue. Processing in the Crafting Queue can take a different amount of blocks depending on the rarity of the item, its grade, and the success of the processing. As a general rule, the higher the grade of the item and the rarer the outcome, the more blocks it is going to take for the processing in the Crafting queue to be complete.The Crafting Queue has four available slots which can be occupied simultaneously. Adding a new item in the Crafting Queue can only happen when there is an empty slot available.The information for the number of blocks that each item requires before it is processed can be found on the crafting & upgrading tabs of the blacksmith ![Required blocks for crafting](https://4131251449-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FSmtywhfKXUhbjWG1su6V%2Fuploads%2F7ZFSeoRDYLx3GzqIHXSt%2Fimage.png?alt=media\&token=5e4438ab-af91-4286-97d4-0c570c6b4f91) ![Required blocks for Upgrading](https://4131251449-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FSmtywhfKXUhbjWG1su6V%2Fuploads%2FG5626KNgwIdfByZThBtE%2Fimage.png?alt=media\&token=7c4e874f-8ab5-4eba-827b-cc93177f52ad) ## Hourglasses Players have the ability to circumvent the processing times of the Crafting Queue by using Hourglasses to instantly process an item. The amount of hourglasses required to speed up either the *upgrading* or *crafting* of an item is given by this simple formula $$Hourglasses = Remaining Blocks/3$$ ![A full Crafting Queue with the ability to speed up the processing ](https://4131251449-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FSmtywhfKXUhbjWG1su6V%2Fuploads%2F0MrSsfoaDsGxHO7T2c6E%2F%E1%84%89%E1%85%B3%E1%84%8F%E1%85%B3%E1%84%85%E1%85%B5%E1%86%AB%E1%84%89%E1%85%A3%E1%86%BA%202022-08-02%20%E1%84%8B%E1%85%A9%E1%84%92%E1%85%AE%206.25.02.png?alt=media\&token=7121e123-aeea-4b62-b877-475b9e54a3b3) Hourglasses can be distinguished between tradeable and non-tradeable and can be acquired: * By completing certain Campaign stages for the first time (Non-tradeable) * In the in-game shop (Tradeable) * As rewards from the Monster Collection (Tradeable) # Shop ## PC Shop The in-game shop is the place where players can trade items with other players. The shop is a fundamental part of Nine Chronicles as it enables true ownership by giving players the ability to actively participate in the economy and openly trade their in-game assets. As stated in Core Axioms, the Nine Chronicles economy is sustained by the player-base and is driven by supply & demand. The shop is the driving force behind the ideology of Nine Chronicles for a gaming ecosystem where the players can shape their own gaming experience. ### Purchasing Items ![Players can buy and sell equipment, food, costumes and materials (hourglasses and AP Potions).](https://4131251449-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FSmtywhfKXUhbjWG1su6V%2Fuploads%2FGw5zgFsKkUtYqZfkf4WN%2Fimage.png?alt=media\&token=30a8deea-e53d-46d8-a62e-cb6938566eeb) The Buy page of the shop gives players the option to filter through all the Items that have been listed for sale by other players. The currency that the shop operates on is $NCG and players can spend their supply to acquire an item of their choosing. In order to find an Item that suits their needs, players can use the various filters in the Buy page to search through the various listings. Items can be found based on their type, Combat Power or even listing price. All of the available Equipment items that have been listed for sale can be found and be purchased in the shop. It is worth mentioning that Action Power Potions and Hourglasses can be found in the Materials tab of the shop and are purchasable. When a player makes a purchase via the shop, the purchased item will be delivered via the Mail Tab shortly after. ### Selling Items ![Players can post multiple Items for other players to discover and purchase](https://4131251449-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FSmtywhfKXUhbjWG1su6V%2Fuploads%2FWKlsDAJ5uX8K4GkT1pX3%2Fimage.png?alt=media\&token=cb3cb5bf-cd72-4fc8-9cf7-e5138976d67a) The Sell page of the shop gives players the option to list their items for sale. When a player chooses which item to list for sale, they can then set an $NCG price at which the item can be sold. The sale will complete when a buyer purchases the item, at which time the seller will receive the NCG amount that they listed the item for with a tax deducted. Players can retrieve or change the NCG price of their listed Items from the shop at any time, if they have not been purchased by another player. ## Mobile Shop
In the mobile store, items can be purchased with real money instead of NCG. Users can buy package deals and other items offered by the developer through the In-App purchase system (IAP). This provides a more convenient and intuitive purchasing experience and ensures greater accessibility for users, which is essential for mobile games. ## Significance These differences take into account the characteristics and user experiences of each platform. The PC store allows users to freely trade resources earned within the game, while the mobile store offers a more intuitive and convenient purchasing method. Through this, Nine Chronicles meets the needs of a diverse user base and serves as a bridge connecting the in-game economy with the real-world economy. # Items ![](https://4131251449-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FSmtywhfKXUhbjWG1su6V%2Fuploads%2Fz3atySp8G4VKcQvOqd1F%2FScreen%20Shot%202022-07-29%20at%202.40.08%20PM.png?alt=media\&token=1a1efc31-1ece-497d-a5bb-4f1e9bccb0f4) Items in the Nine Chronicles world are the main way for a character to increase their power and progress through the increase in difficulty stages of the Campaign, as well as challenge strong opponents in the Arena. Every equipable Item in the Nine Chronicles world is a unique NFT (Non-Fungible Token) over which the players have true ownership. Any item that a player possesses can be upgraded, bought, and sold in the shop. Items in the Nine Chronicles World are divided into: * [Equipment](/introduction/intro/items/equipment) * [Grimoire](/introduction/intro/items/grimoire) * [Rune](/introduction/intro/items/rune) * [Consumables](/introduction/intro/items/consumables) * [Materials](/introduction/intro/items/materials) # Equipment Equipment Items refer to the Items that are directly usable by players during any kind of combat in the Nine Chronicles world. These items can be crafted, upgraded, and traded freely by their owners. Different equipment items provide different kinds of stat values to the players. It is a core gameplay aspect in Nine Chronicles for players to prioritize which equipment Items to craft, which to buy, and in which order to upgrade, in order to pass through the difficult challenges in the Campaign Mode and grow stronger. ![Player accumulating a total of \~140K Combat Power](https://4131251449-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FSmtywhfKXUhbjWG1su6V%2Fuploads%2FUVztfCtrlNcSRI9laRC7%2Fimage.png?alt=media\&token=5049985e-c374-4590-bf87-51c87c6325bc) Equipment Items are accompanied by Combat Power which acts as an indicator of how strong an item is. The formula which calculates the Combat Power is: $$ CP= HP*0.7 + ATK*10.5 + DEF*10.5 + SPD*300 + HIT\*2.3 $$ The stat values of Items are divided into Base Stat values and Secondary Stat values. This distinction will come in handy at a later stage when we discuss Item Upgrading in detail. ![Necklace with Base stat: HIT & Secondary Stat: HP](https://4131251449-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FSmtywhfKXUhbjWG1su6V%2Fuploads%2FL40zLPnTF407J5FaHuFb%2Fimage.png?alt=media\&token=16c6dfc2-29d3-4c8b-91c5-88436011b2ec) Every character has six equipment slots available which correspond to a specific item type. Generally, equipment items have different base stats depending on their type as shown below: | Equipment | Base Stat | | --------- | --------- | | Weapon | Attack | | Armor | HP | | Belt | Speed | | Necklace | Hit | | Ring | Defense | ### Elemental Properties Equipment Items have a specific elemental property associated with them. These are Wind, Water, Fire, and Land. While there will be more utilities for the elemental properties system in the future, currently, there is a 20% damage boost between the attacking character and the enemy based on this cyclical design. The element of the attacker is based on the weapon they have equipped while the defender's element is based on their armor.
![Elemental buff system](https://1559839972-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2Fk52GDFQC2iLkf9e0z5MU%2Fuploads%2FHrbuppYRl36EtMRjCvjm%2Fimage.png?alt=media\&token=8cf535b8-9e71-4180-b1d3-4b8a71f9ef7e) # Item Crafting ![Water Heavy Sword with its required materials](https://4131251449-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FSmtywhfKXUhbjWG1su6V%2Fuploads%2FS3qCAeAig22J9kfOQT0x%2Fimage.png?alt=media\&token=c755340a-55fc-4108-9eec-9922401d17a2) Shortly after fighting for the first time in the Nine Chronicles world, players are able to start Crafting their own unique NFT Items. Before a player can craft a specific item, they first have to unlock the recipe for that item by defeating the required stage in the Campaign. Recipes require different materials depending on the type of the equipment, its grade, and the overall power of the item.
![Black Crow Armor (Wind) recipe information](https://1559839972-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2Fk52GDFQC2iLkf9e0z5MU%2Fuploads%2FKZHqhhpAZWDZJ1A6uP3N%2FCrafting3.png?alt=media\&token=f2813e95-f0cf-4255-9c48-e3504508d9ac) When a player has gathered the required materials for a recipe, they can combine them and start crafting the item by placing it in one of the four slots of the Crafting Queue. This is when the stat values of the item are determined along with the number of blocks it will take to complete crafting. Generally, the higher the level of the recipe the more materials and the more blocks an item is going to require to craft. ![Black Crow Armor (Wind) crafting in progress](https://4131251449-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FSmtywhfKXUhbjWG1su6V%2Fuploads%2FEhWibKNWIz6wSGPQNoPh%2Fimage.png?alt=media\&token=7a28453e-798b-48e8-8ee6-55502ed8e45b) As mentioned in Time in Nine Chronicles, players are able to use Hourglasses to speed up the procedure and immediately complete the crafting of any item. The recipe page of each item is divided into three separate tabs: * Basic: The base version of the item * Premium: An upgraded version of the item that requires more materials and has a higher chance for better stat values. * Mimir: Placeholder for future recipes. ### The Star System When items are crafted, their secondary stat values are randomly generated as a means to diversify them and create a different power level for each item. When a player crafts an item, a dice is rolled for each possible secondary stat value. Each possible secondary stat value has the probability of being acquired during crafting written next to the value. In the following example, you can see that the recipe for a Solid Belt (Earth) has an 8% chance of individually acquiring the "Speed Increase" Skill while there is a combined probability of 4.0% to acquire all of the secondary stat values. If the roll determines that a secondary stat will be acquired, then the value of the secondary stat will also be randomly selected from the available range in the parentheses. You can find a detailed list of all the Item Recipes along with their available stat values and the required materials [here](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1ppCR5ABq5iAbAvUT6gh8zWj7HiGe5NidWtFdE03naX0/edit#gid=1807358443).
![Recipe with 4.0% probability of Great Success.](https://1559839972-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2Fk52GDFQC2iLkf9e0z5MU%2Fuploads%2FZQXIXlsImzlPLLS8Fzkp%2FCrafting4.png?alt=media\&token=40aa6353-4d54-4cb2-9b38-c066bd2d02ed) # Item Upgrading ![](https://4131251449-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FSmtywhfKXUhbjWG1su6V%2Fuploads%2Fsod1VmAUW24eJkOEUc5N%2Fimage.png?alt=media\&token=4d8b9ebf-c187-49e0-8936-068b81c43067) Equipment Items in the Nine Chronicles World have the ability to be upgraded in order to increase their base and secondary stat values. When an item is initially crafted it starts with a grade level equal to zero. For an item to be upgraded, an item of the same type and grade must be consumed. Players generally refer to these consumed items as fodder items. As the difficulty of the Campaign stages increases, players will inevitably have to use upgraded equipment in order to keep progressing. When an Equipment Item is upgraded, the values of its stats increase based on the following formulas. At certain grade levels (+4, +7, +10, +13..) items require an amount of NCG to be upgraded which varies based on the type of the item.
GradeBase Stat IncreaseSecondary Stat IncreaseNCG RequiredItems Required
+1+(8-12)%0%false2
+2+(8-12)%0%false4
+3+(8-12)%0%false8

+8+(8-12)%+(8-12)%false256
+9+(8-12)%+(8-12)%false512
+10+(8-12)%+(8-12)%true1024
It is noteworthy that in the current implementation of Nine Chronicles, Items can be theoretically upgraded infinitely. However, since the fodder requirement cost increases exponentially, there is a practical limit to how much an item can be upgraded by the players. *When this document was lastly updated, there was only a single item in the whole Nine Chronicles ecosystem to have reached a grade of +11* ### Upgrading Times and Probabilities. ![](https://4131251449-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FSmtywhfKXUhbjWG1su6V%2Fuploads%2FIkOsQBX4fLrp7tEO6ghV%2Fimage.png?alt=media\&token=f4db92b5-5527-4190-86e2-1f091769e10e) The Upgrading mechanism introduces the Success Rate probability. After a certain upgrade level, the upgrade may fail which will cause the fodder item to be destroyed while the item being upgraded remains intact. While it will be explained thoroughly in the Economic Design section, this mechanism is crucial to the sustainability of the economy of Nine Chronicles. Similar to Item Crafting, when an item is being upgraded, it is placed in one of the four slots of the Crafting Queue for the number of Required Blocks displayed on the Upgrade page. Players have the ability to use Hourglasses to speed up the process and finish the upgrade immediately. # Grimoire ## Introduction The Grimoire is a newly introduced gear slot item in Nine Chronicles. This item takes the form of magical books and scrolls, enabling players to utilize various strategies in combat. The Grimoire is a special magical gear that unlocks another slot to enhance combat abilities. ## Details The Grimoire comes in various grades (Rare, Epic, Unique, Legendary), each with different abilities and skills. This item is provided in a gacha form, allowing players to obtain special gear that can be equipped in the Grimoire slot without any visual changes. The Grimoire gear has a certain probability of using specific skills, offering advantageous effects in combat when equipped. ## Acquisition The Grimoire can be obtained through Adventure Boss battles, often only available as seasonal rewards. Additionally, players have opportunities to acquire it through various in-game events and quests. ## Significance of the Acquisition Method of the Item in Nine Chronicles' Decentralized Economy The acquisition method of the Grimoire item holds significant meaning in the decentralized economy of Nine Chronicles. This item supports a decentralized economic system where free trade among players determines the value of items based on supply and demand. It ensures that players can earn economic benefits proportionate to their in-game rewards and time investment. Moreover, it promotes interactions among players within a self-sustaining economic structure operated without direct involvement from the development team. # Rune ## Introduction Runes are equipment in Nine Chronicles that provide players with additional stats and skills. This rune system offers various stat and skill options to enhance gameplay. For example, the Golden Leaf Rune provides multiple effects, especially helping to reduce damage and increasing the chances of victory. ## How to obtain Runes can be obtained in several ways: * **World Boss**: Rune fragments can be obtained from World Bosses. * **NCG Staking**: Runes can be acquired through NCG staking (Monster Collection). * **Workshop**: Rune fragments can be summoned in the Workshop using Golden Dust or Ruby Dust. * **Events and Packages**: Runes can be purchased and obtained through specific events or packages. ## Type of Runes There are various types of runes, each offering different effects: * **Stun Rune**: Has a 10% chance to apply a stun debuff to the enemy for a few turns upon attack. * **Vampire Rune**: Converts a portion of damage dealt into HP to heal the player. * **Stamina Rune**: Helps manage stamina, allowing for longer adventures. * **Swift Rune**: Increases attack speed. * **Divine Grade Runes**: Provide exceptional effects with a high probability; for example, the Freyja’s Liberation Rune offers an evasion rate debuff with a certain probability. There are also many other runes with various skills and stats. ## Other Features * **Rune Enhancement**: Runes can be enhanced using rune fragments. The more a rune is enhanced, the stronger its stats become. * **Rune Level Bonus**: There is a level bonus based on the total enhancement of the runes you own. Upgraded runes grant bonuses even if they are not equipped. * **Additional Rune Slots**: You can unlock additional rune slots using Crystals or NCG, allowing you to equip more runes. The rune system in Nine Chronicles offers a variety of effects and options, making gameplay richer and more dynamic. # Costumes & Titles Costumes & Titles are unique NFT cosmetic items that change the appearance of a character when equipped. They offer very little stat value increase contrary to other Items. Staying true to the spirit of true ownership, costumes and titles are tradeable in the shop. The available NFT Costumes have a very limited supply and have been given out as rewards to players on very specific occasions. The available costumes are: * Dark Valkyrie (9 available) * Ruci (9 available) * Hella's Shadow (80 available) * Valkyrie (80 available) * Lion Of Dawn (80 available) * Rui (40 available) ![](https://4131251449-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FSmtywhfKXUhbjWG1su6V%2Fuploads%2FgXyER7GZmcH9oGONG0kA%2FScreen%20Shot%202022-08-01%20at%203.49.10%20PM.png?alt=media\&token=1989692f-6d71-48a5-a61f-3e3bc7ff25f3) The available titles are: * Legendary Adventurer (Reward for early adopters) * Sushi Frontier (Reward for participating in MISO IDO) * Yggdrasil Champion (Reward for Arena Season 0: Rank 1-10) * Yggdrasil Challenger (Reward for Arena Season 0: Rank 11-30) * Yggdrasil Warrior (Reward for Arena Season 0: Rank 30-100) # Consumables Consumable Items refer to Items that players can use during the Campaign Stages to increase their combat stats for a single fight. Consumable items are a very important aspect of progressing in the Campaign. Consumable Items can be bought and sold in the shop similar to other Equipment items. ![](https://4131251449-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FSmtywhfKXUhbjWG1su6V%2Fuploads%2FxLLbPmDQ6ssO62zo7V78%2Fimage.png?alt=media\&token=2e4ca348-7754-4acc-9d06-14a79c23a38e) Similar to the Equipment, players can decide which consumables to use in their stage fights and carefully optimize their strategy to maximize their chance of progressing. ![Fight with consumables equipped](https://1559839972-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2Fk52GDFQC2iLkf9e0z5MU%2Fuploads%2Fjex9JBbOglTRBsFyfzAX%2FConsumables5.png?alt=media\&token=8484903b-218b-4415-91af-89c20c3ffc3c) The required materials for crafting Consumables recipes can be found by competing in the Arena. ![](https://4131251449-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FSmtywhfKXUhbjWG1su6V%2Fuploads%2FzDtEDTqb9Gqxu7aj3oq3%2Fimage.png?alt=media\&token=e50c592c-27f2-47a6-ab05-01a81c5a3790) # Materials Material Items refer to the components that are rewarded by fighting in the Campaign and the Arena. They are required for Equipment as well as Consumables Items to be crafted. Material Items are not tradeable in the marketplace. As players play through the Campaign and the Arena, they accumulate a variety of different materials in their inventory. These materials can be used to craft a number of different recipes. Different materials have different drop rates based on their rarity and utility. Required Materials to craft a Solid Belt (Earth) ![Inventory with various Materials](https://4131251449-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FSmtywhfKXUhbjWG1su6V%2Fuploads%2FrndMWghAMSLEcQXGweJX%2Fimage.png?alt=media\&token=6f3924cb-6f44-4653-987c-426d65e6dc8d) The materials that are required for each recipe can vary depending on the power level as well as the rarity of the item.

Visit for Staking! * Schedule * Staking opens: Thursday, December 15th, 06:00 AM UTC * Rewarding Mechanism starts: Friday, December 16th, 06:00 AM UTC (24 hours after staking opens) ### DCCM * DCCM is a symbol for D:CC Mileage. * D:CC Mileage is one of the rewards that you will receive as you stake your D:CC NFTs. * With DCCM, you will be able to purchase various items from the Mileage Store. ### D:CC Mileage Store * You can purchase new items that can be used in Nine Chronicles’ D:CC Mileage Store. This means that there will be items only supplied via the mileage store. * A variety of items to expand the D:CC NFT system will be added to the Mileage Store. * All items will be sold in the form of NFT, enabling secondary trading on OpenSea. ### D:CC Staking Collection * Within the D:CC Staking system, there are 2 types of staking; General staking and Collection staking. * Collection staking means you must stake specific D:CC NFTs meeting certain requirements. * You will receive a designated reward once you have completed the collection. * Even if you have not completed any of the collections, you can still receive the general staking reward according to the number of NFTs you staked. * Not all Collections are permanent.

Dear Adventurers, 😺 Today, we are thrilled to unveil our roadmap for the year 2024 💖 In 2023, we celebrated many significant milestones, from expanding our multi-platform initiatives with the [**launch**](https://twitter.com/NineChronicles/status/1727330205663162424) of Nine Chronicles M to introducing innovative features like Golden Dust and Aura. Rest assured, this year we aim to match, if not surpass, the offerings of the previous year. In 2024, we remain steadfast in our commitment to deliver a web3 community-driven experience to our valued community. This roadmap serves as a reminder of our commitment. However, please note that the items and dates are subject to change based on internal developments. 💪🏻 ## I. POS Conversion: A step closer to becoming 100% everlasting ### 💻 **PoS Transition** In 2022, our team [**began**](https://medium.com/nine-chronicles/invitation-to-the-first-pbft-playertest-on-testnet-with-rewards-2336791a98f6) the PBFT (Practical Byzantine Fault Tolerance) implementation and in 2023, we kicked off the [**transition**](https://snack.planetarium.dev/eng/2023/04/pbft-0/) to PoS, a consensus algorithm where chain users elect delegates to verify transactions on their behalf. The consensus process is more democratic and ensures that the community can participate in the process. The PoS transition efforts bring us closer to our vision from Day 1 — building a fully decentralized game that will sustain without the intervention of the game company. 🙌🏻 Currently, we are in talks with leading projects regarding the validator pool and we will continue to share further updates and behind-the-scenes via the dev team’s [Engineering Snack](https://snack.planetarium.dev/kor/). ## II. Game Ecosystem & Community: Enhancing the web3 gaming experience ### 🗺️ **New Content** We’re currently developing new worlds Hel and Vanaheim as well as some unique monsters. This year, our goal is to roll out new content that will further boost gameplay and provide immersive experiences such as item collection, circular content, and growth system features such as costumes, pets and more. ### **🎮 Community-driven web3 gaming experience** We kicked off the [**pilot**](https://medium.com/nine-chronicles/prelude-to-guild-war-heimdall-arena-season-3-en-kr-jp-7d997da7878f) version of our Guild content, ‘Prelude to Guild War’, which encouraged the community to engage in unprecedented ways. The Guild content will go under iterations before becoming official content. We’re also considering various ways for users to create mods or build items using self-crafted resources in the Arena and World Boss content. Further, our goal is to enhance the community-driven experience by providing support for IP expansion, grants and more. ### 💰 **In-game Economy** Earlier this year, we [**revamped**](https://medium.com/nine-chronicles/9cm-monster-collection-reward-increase-update-e9c5f0dd4a8f) the Monster Collection reward system to ensure a sustainable NCG ecosystem in addition to [**adopting**](https://github.com/planetarium/NCIPs/blob/main/NCIP/ncip-16.md) garage tokens, which are at the core of a decentralized business model. We also decided to [**extend**](https://ninechronicles.medium.com/d-cc-update-d-cc-staking-rewards-extended-aadf010d5d5f) the D:CC staking reward by 1 year with an additional 300,000 WNCG. Going forward, we plan to burn some of the revenue that incur from the IAP in Nine Chronicles M to contribute to the game’s token economy. ## III. Partnerships: Building Together ### 🤝 **Partnership plans** This year, we aim to expand our collaborations with existing partners such as YGG and BNB Chain in addition to increasing outreach efforts with leaders in the web3 gaming space. In the coming weeks, we’ll be revealing a **special collaboration event** **with a new partner** so stay tuned! 🤫 ## Lastly, why take the hard road? *‘Why should we create an on-chain game? It’s hard’* Behind the development of Ethereum lies a well-known story about Vitalik Buterin. The story goes like this. Buterin realized the need for decentralized services when his World of Warcraft character got nerfed. This inspired him to create Ethereum. Nine Chronicles was built 100% on-chain because of the team’s vision to create an eternal world where the game will sustain as long as there is a single player. Even if the company no longer exists, the game itself will carry on as an infinite world. While we’re fully aware of the challenges that come our way, we believe that by leveraging blockchain technology, Nine Chronicles will be able to build an ecosystem comprised of creative and diverse mods, content and products. Thank you for the support you’ve provided us until now, and we ask that you will continue with us in our journey, at the forefront of web3! LFG 2024! 🚀 # 2023 Roadmap ## **Adventurers!** ### **We are so thrilled to share our ambitious and aspiring roadmap for 2023.** This year’s roadmap highlights the incorporation of the Decentralization & Improvement Proposal section, which is left blank (not entirely written by the team) to be finalized with the community. The team will provide ample avenues for the community to voice their opinions throughout the game and operations and will improve Nine Chronicles based on your valuable comments. That’s right. 2023 will bring Nine Chronicles one step closer to achieving its vision of ‘creating community-driven web3 gaming experience’. Since the launch of the network, our awesome community has played a pivotal role in building a fully decentralized world where players can own and power together. Let’s continue this unprecedented adventure together in 2023! ## ⚡ Highlights of 2023 Nine Chronicles Roadmap * **‘Decetnralization & Improvement’ section has been added.

Nine Chronicles has many tasks this year. Since the launch of the network, our [amazing discord channel](https://discord.com/invite/planetarium) has been very vocal about how to build a decentralized RPG that players can enjoy, compete, earn, and power together. This year’s new updates will reflect the accumulated [Nine Chronicles Improvement Proposals (NCIP)](https://github.com/planetarium/NCIPs) as much as possible. In addition, we will hold a community vote every quarter to reflect your opinions directly on the system or content to be added next quarter. 🤗 ### 💪🏻 2022 Challenges 1. Release major updates to revamp Nine Chronicles’ economy with long-term growth potential for the players and the network 2. Add fresh content and reorganize existing ones to offer new cooperative/competitive challenges. *Require complex situations for different types of equipment to be utilized.* 3. Release mobile client and PoS upgrade to grow our userbase 4. Reflect the community’s opinions on the roadmap consistently 5. Build exciting partnerships with growth opportunities 6. Update systems and basic balance to improve user experience ### 🗓 First Quarter March will kick off with PvP Arena Season 2 — are you excited yet?! We are planning to introduce the level requirement for items after the event, which will increase the depth of trading and craft activities. In addition, a location guide for obtaining specific materials will be added in the item information tab, and a shortcut will be provided. Community voting for Arena Season 3 rewards and our digital card drop with [KOLLECT](https://kollect.cards/) will also be unveiled in March, so please pay a lot of attention. ### 🗓 Second Quarter At the beginning of the second quarter, not only will Arena Season 3 be held in mid-April, we also aim to resume whitelisted community mining. In addition, we will rebalance items to stabilize the market economy, and this progress will be disclosed to the community with as much detail as possible. At the end of the quarter, we will release the long-awaited 💎 ‘crystal system’ based on item dismantling. This will be one of the largest updates to the 9C economy, with huge new opportunities for growth and earning. We will also introduce a major system update to the PvP arena, where a new competition to the reward model will become available every month. World 6 will also be opened with a set of new stages and items to craft. During the second quarter, Nine Chronicles Dungeons, a game based on the Nine Chronicle IP developed by our community will be released as well. We are also creating a branch of the 9C experience on [The Sandbox](https://www.sandbox.game/) through [our partnership ](https://medium.com/sandbox-game/partnership-announcement-the-sandbox-ft-planetarium-d6c08afd40d0#:~:text=We%20are%20happy%20to%20announce,the%20passion%20of%20making%20games.)— we can’t wait to share this! ### 🗓 Third Quarter The major update arriving the third quarter is the release of the World Boss 🔥, the first cooperative content of Nine Chronicle. This will add a new dimension of play to complement our competitive PvP Arena. There will also be a huge overhaul of the NCG Staking Feature 🏦. We’ve always wanted to reward NCG holders with bonus opportunities to compete, earn, and grow. The staking overhaul will feature creative ways to unlock more fun, and will fundamentally change how players interact with the network. And there will be the first Quarterly Arena, a larger organized PvP event. With more diverse rewards at stake, we expect sharp competition among our adventurers. We are also exploring NFTs by utilizing our amazing assets and art. Who wouldn’t want to collect cute Nine Chronicles PFP? 🐱 In addition, we plan to make the proof of stake testnet of the Nine Chronicle available to the public. Last but not least, through a Summer seasonal event, one of the biggest festivals of Nine Chronicle will be held 🌞 ### 🗓 Fourth Quarter The fourth quarter with Halloween 🎃 and Christmas 🎄 events will be an exciting season to come. In addition, ‘The Annual Arena’ will be held at the end of the year. This event, held only once a year, will close out 2022 with the largest rewards of the season. We’re also excited to reveal that the mobile version of Nine Chronicle will be unveiled at the end of the year, which will unlock the game to a wider audience all across the world. From the very beginning, we planned Nine Chronicles as a multi-platform blockchain gaming experience that travels with you. We look forward to testing this together with our dedicated community before the release 😼 Along with this major release, we are planning to roll out the Proof of Stake network upgrade to decrease the network’s latency significantly. Go share the news, find your friends to earn together, and see you in the arena soon!

This bonus is active starting from this update and remains in effect until the next update, giving players a great opportunity to push their progression further. ### NCU Connection Status Display * NCU (Nine Chronicles Universe) connection status is now visible both in the portal and in-game, making it easier to see your cross-title integration at a glance. Your PETPOP and RB nicknames, along with linked quest information, are displayed as part of this overview. * Additional NCU features — including active NCG reward season banners, collab event displays, and detailed cross-title milestones — are coming in an upcoming update. ### Adventure Boss Rework * A new material, Distorted Essence, has been added to Adventure Boss. Distorted Essence comes in 5 types — Attack, Defense, HP, Hit, and Speed — earned through boss-specific and floor-based first-clear rewards. * Boss-specific Essences: Surt drops Attack Essence, Laufey drops Defense Essence, Jormungandr drops HP Essence, and Hera drops Hit Essence. * First-clear rewards at Floors 6, 16, and 26 grant 1, 2, and 3 of that boss's Essence, respectively. * Speed Essence is granted from first clears at Floors 11 and 21 (1 and 2 respectively), regardless of which boss is fought. * Bounty rewards now include each boss's Essence as a possible random reward. Drop weights for existing Bounty rewards (Gold Dust, Ruby Dust, Runes, Emerald Dust) have been adjusted accordingly. * Following these changes, some existing rewards have been relocated. The Epic Hammer from Floor 6 and the Circle from Floor 11 have been moved to Floor 8. Total obtainable quantities remain unchanged. * 25 new collections that use Distorted Essences have been added. ### Shop Improvements * Free Package Refresh * The lineup and contents of Free Packages in the Mobile Shop have been reworked. * Conditional Mobile Exchange Access * When you hold 1 or more NCG and are eligible to purchase, the Mobile Shop will now display a selection popup for SHOP and EXCHANGE. * New Transcendent Skin * One new Transcendent grade skin has been added, available for purchase in the Mileage Shop. * NCG Voucher Returns (Preview) * Starting September, portal purchase missions will be updated and NCG Vouchers will return. ## 200460 ### New Event Dungeon Bifrost Reforged A new limited-time event dungeon, Bifrost Reforged, has been added. The event runs from July 21 to August 23. New event-exclusive collections have been added, providing meaningful stat boosts to support player progression during the event period. ### New Collections * 12 new collections tied to the Bifrost Reforged event dungeon have been added. * 1 new Season Pass collection has been added. ### Mileage 3x Event Throughout the Bifrost Reforged event period (July 21 to August 23), mileage earned from Mobile Shop purchases will be tripled. All July Season Pass purchases made prior to this update are eligible and will be automatically migrated to receive the 3x mileage bonus retroactively. ## 200450 ### New Content #### New Stages **New Stages — 471–500** 30 new main stages have been added, expanding the world up to Stage 500. The new stages drop the materials needed to craft the new Transcendence (Grade 8) equipment, and all existing conveniences—such as Sweep and Crystal rewards—are fully supported across the new range. #### New Equipment **New Transcendence (Grade 8) Equipment — Land · Wind · Normal** New Transcendence equipment sets for the Land, Wind, and Normal elements have been added. Each set covers every slot—Weapon, Armor, Belt, Necklace, and Ring—and each piece comes with its own crafting recipe, unique options, and an active skill. #### Other New Additions **New Collections** New collections featuring the new Transcendence equipment have been added. In addition, new stat collections let you gather Emerald Dust, Sapphire Dust, and Golden Meat to boost ATK, HP, DEF, HIT, and SPD—adding a deeper, material-driven path for growth. ## 200440 ### Content Balance Adjustments World Boss — Wave and Reward Rebalance World Boss has been rebalanced across all waves, with adjustments to boss stats, damage scaling, and reward distribution per wave to better align with player effort and progression. These changes will take effect from the next season. The currently ongoing season will conclude under the existing rules, and the reworked balance and rewards will apply starting from the following season. Custom Equipment — Grade and Balance Rework The Custom Equipment system has been reworked. Equipment grade structure has been revised, and stat ranges and craft outcomes have been re-tuned across all grades for a more meaningful crafting experience. ### NCU RB Final Teaser Banner The final teaser banner for the upcoming Rune Battle (RB) season is now live in-game. Players can preview the runes available in the first RB season and start planning ahead. ### Game Improvements New Transcendent Costumes * Two new Grade 8 (Transcendent) costumes have been added to the Costume Summon pool.

Summon Premium Effect Threshold Changed The threshold for triggering the premium summon visual effect has been raised. Previously, the effect played when a Legendary or higher grade item was included in the summon result. It now plays only when a Mythic or higher grade item is included, preserving the premium moment for truly rare pulls. ### Bug Fixes Fixed an issue where the Critical Damage (CDMG) Collection bonus was not being correctly applied to player stats. After this update, CDMG values from collections will be calculated and reflected as intended. ## 200430 ### New Event Dungeon — Bifrost Gate A new limited-time event dungeon has been added. * Two exclusive event materials are introduced for the Bifrost Gate * These materials are used to complete event-exclusive collections that provide meaningful stat boosts to support player progression * Completing all 12 collections requires a combination of dungeon clearing and package purchases *** ### New Runes — PETPOP New Grade 8 (Transcendent) skill runes have been added as part of the NCU collaboration. * **Freya PETPOP Rune**: A survival-oriented hybrid rune with HP, DEF, and SPD stats, plus an ATK buff skill.

In order for players to be able to grow alongside the game, these are the core axioms that the Nine Chronicles economy is founded on and the overall direction that every new update is aiming towards. ## **Core Axioms** * The in-game economy functions independently and requires minimal involvement from the development team * The Nine Chronicles economy is sustainable regardless of an influx of new players. * In-game assets' value is decided by supply and demand in a decentralized way by the player-base. * Players can start the Nine Chronicles with zero entry fees. * Players can exercise true ownership over their in-game assets. * Value and time put into a player's character should be reflected in the number of rewards that a player receives. # What is NCG The main currency used in the world of Nine Chronicles. ![](https://4131251449-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FSmtywhfKXUhbjWG1su6V%2Fuploads%2FL4D9kkkvyIRlLjHAQMpN%2F1_WDA-zdoKmBRrZ-dGInBgRQ.png?alt=media\&token=1a49dcf0-e12f-49ee-a08a-930ceb66ea2f) Nine Chronicles Gold (NCG) is the main currency used in the world of Nine Chronicles. Players can spend NCG to craft powerful items, trade with other users, challenge each other, and accelerate growth. NCG isn't necessary in the beginning stages of exploration, but the game is designed so that NCG's needs are gradually increased as players grow more powerful. Eventually, players can stake NCG to earn potions and unique items which can be used by them or sold to other users for profit. ## Buy NCG {% hint style="info" %} In short, you can't buy NCG directly from DEX or Centralized Exchanges. Instead, you must buy Wrapped NCG (WNCG) form the exchange and transfer them into Nine Chronicles via [Nine Chronicles Portal](https://nine-chronicles.com). WCNG will automatically converted into NCG during the process. {% endhint %} ### What is Wrapped NCG? WNCG is a 1:1 NCG backed ERC-20 token that delivers the power of NCG with the flexibility of an ERC-20 token. We released a "Wrapped NCG" token (symbol: WNCG) on the Ethereum blockchain to make NCG publicly tradable and permanently immutable. ### Decentralized Exchanges * [Balancer](https://app.balancer.fi/#/trade) * [SushiSwap](https://app.sushi.com/swap?inputCurrency=eth\&outputCurrency=0xf203Ca1769ca8e9e8FE1DA9D147DB68B6c919817) ### Centralized Exchanges * [OKX](https://www.okx.com/) * [Gate.io](https://www.gate.io/trade/wncg_usdt) * [Kucoin](https://trade.kucoin.com/ko/trade/WNCG-USDT) * [MEXC](https://www.mexc.com/ko-KR/exchange/WNCG_USDT) ### Exchange between NCG & WNCG When you have WNCG token in your Ethereum wallet, you can exchange WNCG to NCG on [Nine Chronicles portal](https://nine-chronicles.com). You can find the menu "WNCG -> NCG", and you can exchange WNCG to NCG and send them to your Nine chronicles account. You can also convert NCG to WNCG in the menu "Send NCG" of the Nine Chronicles Launcher. Please beware of the daily conversion limit, 5,000 NCG per day, and the minimum transfer amount, 100 NCG per transfer. To pay the gas fee, 1% of the NCG will be deducted by the bridge. ## Spending NCG ### ⚖️ Trading Items | ![Image for post](https://miro.medium.com/max/1400/0*k68mQ5aElkiUsvWZ.png) | ![Image for post](https://miro.medium.com/max/1400/0*Kq3gpvjmLfD-7ROf.png) | | -------------------------------------------------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------- | NCG is used to sell or purchase items from the public market.

Specifically, *AP potions and Hourglasses, which are crucial for the character’s growth acceleration,* **can only be generated by staking NCG.** The demand for these two items would naturally increase as the competition between the players intensifies. This finally contributes to the appreciation of NCG. Along with **receiving in-game items that can be sold to the other players**, the staking feature also effectively reduces the **surplus supply** of NCG. ***In this way, the game business is shared along with the players!*** ## NCG Distribution Structure ![](https://miro.medium.com/max/1368/1*6LcAQHMJHWVRBSzALzIIqw.png) \**Halving release schedule: 10 NCG per block mined (10 second target) with 4 year half-life = 31,104,000 Tokens (Year 1) \~= 12.5% of Total Mining Pool* # Staking Model ## Staking: Monster Collection The Monster Collection is the first iteration of a staking mechanism in Nine Chronicles. Players are able to "lock" their $NCG for a one-month period and get rewarded with Hourglasses and AP potions on a weekly basis. Contrary to most traditional games with an energy system, in Nine Chronicles it is players that are able to generate the AP Potions necessary for continuing to progress in the game.

Staking : Monster Collection UI from the launcher

You're able to stake as small as 50 NCGs. Each staking level requires a 10 times larger than the previous level. This means that staking level 1 starts with 50 NCG then 500 NCGs, 5,000 NCGs and on. ### How to Staking NCG * Run the PC launcher. \ (If you are a mobile user, please refer to the ['Import your mobile account to PC'](/introduction/guide/faqs/import-your-mobile-account-to-pc)) * Complete the login. * Click on 'Staking' in the top right corner of the launcher. * Press 'Edit,' enter the desired amount, and click 'Save.' ### Let's get into more details. First of all, you can use the reward simulator to calculate the reward based on the staking amount. This might save you time before diving into the more detailed descriptions that follow. Go to the '[Stake' menu on the Nine Chronicles portal](https://nine-chronicles.com/earn#Stake) and click the 'Simulate Staking and Check APR' button.

APR Simulator

Also, below you can find a table with the amount of NCG required to unlock each monster of the collection and the equivalent reward in AP Potions, hourglasses and other materials per week.
The **AP Potions** and **Hourglasses** rewards from the Monster Collection are tradeable in the Shop. #### Here's an example of how this system works. Let’s say you have staked 2,300 NCGs. If the amount of NCG is between two levels, your current level will be the lower of the two levels. In other words, if you have staked 2,300 NCGs, your staking level will be level 2 (between 500 and 5,000 NCGs). Also, you will be receiving 287 Hourglasses and 4 AP Potions. So how to get those numbers? Here’s how.
### Crystal grinding bonus and Arena Reward bonus Moreover, each level will provide you with different benefits for the gameplay, such as a crystal grinding bonus, and arena reward bonus (Seasons & Championship). For details, please refer to the table below (last updated: June 28th, 2022)

*100% means the original amount without any bonus

## WNCG Staking You can stake WNCG on [WNCG Staking](https://stake.nine-chronicles.com/wncg). Unlike Monster Collection, WNCG Staking is distributing rewards to the WNCG-WETH pool liquidity providers. Therefore, you need to deposit your WNCG (and ETH, if you want) to the liquidity pool on Balancer. You can earn WNCG and BAL rewards by staking on WNCG Staking. Please check [the WNCG Staking document](https://www.notion.so/planetarium/WNCG-Staking-Docs-04317420d2d647ee82f2f1364358c5a9) for more details. # Reward Model ## Introduction In order for the vision behind Nine Chronicles to come to life, a reward model that rewards players for their participation and engagement has to be present. The Nine Chronicles ecosystem integrates various mechanisms to maintain the necessary sustainability and allow growth for the players. ## Basic mechanism
Players play through the battle to gather materials and unlock new, stronger recipes. They can then craft new items which they can either use to continue progressing in the battle, use in the various Events to get better rewards, or list for sale in the Market. If a player is unable to further progress in the battle they can immediately purchase stronger items through the market or upgrade their items to continue growing stronger. The are various ways to approach the reward model of Nine Chronicles. Some players choose to optimize their earnings by elaborate trading while others strive to stay on the top of the leaderboard and get the best rewards during the events. Players can change their course of action throughout their Nine Chronicles journey following the quickly changing landscape that is the open economy of Nine Chronicles. ## Reward Details
## Before PoS #### **Block Rewards** * In the PoW system, users provided computing power to verify game transactions and create new blocks, receiving rewards in return. * They received 10 NCG as a reward per block. **Staking Rewards** * Through NCG staking (Monster Collection), users could receive various items as rewards, such as AP Potions, Hourglasses, Golden Leaf Runes, Golden Dust, and Ruby Dust. ## After PoS **Block Rewards** * With the transition from PoW to PoS, block rewards are planned to be reduced. * In the PoS system, users receive rewards by staking NCG. This requires less computing power, and users can earn additional NCG through staking. **Staking Rewards** * The rewards for NCG staking (Monster Collection) will be adjusted upwards in line with the transition to PoS. (For example, ETH staking rewards increased by 3.3% after the PoS transition.) * After transitioning to PoS, the circulation structure of the NCG used by users has become more important. Thus, part of the NCG used by users will be burned, and the remainder will be redistributed to staking users. **Other Rewards** * Rewards will also be provided to guilds and validators to ensure that more rewards are distributed to various participants within the game ecosystem. ### **Summary of Key Differences** * In the PoW system, rewards were primarily given based on the provision of computing power, but after transitioning to the PoS system, rewards through staking have been enhanced, making the forms and distribution of rewards more diverse. * The transition from PoW to PoS aims to reduce block rewards while expanding the scope of rewards so that users can receive rewards through various activities. * Through these changes, Nine Chronicles aims to increase the sustainability of the game, provide a richer reward experience to users, and efficiently manage the game ecosystem. # Swap NCG to WNCG As you may already know, WNCG is backed 1:1 with NCG. You could transfer NCGs from the main launcher of the game to your Ethereum account as WNCG. ### Here’s the detailed steps: 1\. From the main launcher menu, click the Send NCG button.
2\. From this screen below, you can choose to Send NCG to another user or Swap NCG to WNCG. To swap NCG to WNCG, select the second option (**Swap to WNCG**).
3\. To swap NCG to WNCG, (1) enter the **ETH Address** which will be receiving the WNCG and (2) the amount of NCG you want to transfer. This will send your NCG to the bridge endpoint, which will verify the transaction, and then mint WNCG to send to the above Ethereum address. FYI, The official WNCG token address for the bridge contract running on the Ethereum network is: [**0xf203Ca1769ca8e9e8FE1DA9D147DB68B6c919817**](https://etherscan.io/token/0xf203Ca1769ca8e9e8FE1DA9D147DB68B6c919817) ### **Please note that:** * Minimum 100 NCG per transfer (to prevent DDOS/ETH gas) * Maximum 20,000 NCG ➡ WNCG swap in 24 hours (will be raised gradually with bridge upgrades) * NCG → WNCG conversion will have a fee to cover for gas in WNCG minting process and to account for other development/ecosystem costs. * 10 NCG for less than 1,000 NCG * 1% base fee for between 1,000 NCG and 10,000 NCG, inclusive * 2% additional surcharge for amount exceeding 10,000 NCG * ex. Swap 15,000 NCG -> (15,000 \* 0.01) + (5,000 \* 0.02) = 150 (base fee) + 100 (additional surcharge) = 250 NCG Fee * WNCG → NCG conversion will have a 0% fee. * You can transfer from [Nine Chronicles Portal](https://nine-chronicles.com/my-account#Transfer) # Crystals Creating a sustainable and decentralized in-game economy with zero entry fees while the player-base is constantly expanding is no easy task. After a year in the mainnet and with tens of thousands of players joining the Nine Chronicles ecosystem, the development team was able to monitor and identify certain areas where the in-game economy could improve. In an attempt to further solidify and reinforce the fundamental Core Axioms and the reward model, an update is currently being designed and developed. Nine Chronicles Crystals (NCC) in a proposed sub-currency for the Nine Chronicles world which aims to minimize the impact of the expanding player-base by providing more ways for players to utilize the excess of Items that they create in their Nine Chronicles journey. As time passes and more players join the game, it is only natural that more and more items will be generated and remain in the network if there is not a steady influx of new players to acquire and use them. There is a need for a system to give players the option to translate the value of the items that their character is not equipped with in a sub-currency and essentially remove them from the total available pool of items. The introduction of crystals aims to improve upon these aspects of the reward model: * Lower the earning threshold for low-level players * Maintain Item value over time * Safeguard the economy from an exponentially growing player-base ### Acquisition of Crystals The main way to acquire Nine Chronicles Crystals is by introducing a disassembling mechanism for Items. Players will be able to immediately translate the value of their Items into a usable sub-currency with various in-game utilities. There are additional ways of acquiring crystals being considered with the goal of maximizing the impact of this Crystals on the economy. Some of those include: * Disassembling Items * Unsuccessful Item upgrades * Event rewards * Trading ### Use Cases of Crystals A lot of thought has gone into designing Nine Chronicles Crystals in a fun and engaging way for players, without compromising any of the intended improvements to the reward model. The goal of these use cases is to empower players with more possibilities on how to earn and grow within the Nine Chronicles ecosystem. A particular concept revolves around using crystals to acquire limited-time buffs during the PvP events to help players rank higher on the leaderboards. The core ideas that are currently being considered are: * Seasonal Arena buffs * Seasonal Event passes for better rewards * Increase of Item upgrading probabilities * Crafting or rare/unique Items * Rerolling sec can be found here. # Join ## Discord ## Medium ## Twitter ## Instagram # Support Program # Ecosystem Support Program The Ecosystem Support Program provides a way to earn NCG (Nine Chronicles Gold), activation keys, in-game items for the game, and more. *** ![](https://miro.medium.com/max/2696/1*i4REjo1ew__W2twp3y_qJg.png) The Ecosystem Support Program exists to provide both financial/non-financial support to projects and entities within the greater Nine Chronicles community, in order to accelerate the growth of the ecosystem. Our focus is on deploying our resources where they will have the biggest impact. If you've got a project and want to see if ESP is a good fit, get in touch. **NOTE**: Please note that the ESP is currently on-hold while a new process is developed. The current ESP was not as effective for engagement as we had hoped so we will revamp how it works and then publish the new details here. ## Community awareness! Helping the residents of Nine Chronicles shine ✨ ![](https://miro.medium.com/max/800/1*5rZ4jSraTZvjxxoQQ92cKA.png) First and foremost, we want our community to have fun playing Nine Chronicles! We would love to have our enthusiastic community members stream the game, create videos, or post about us on social media. Suggested content to feature: * Gameplay streaming, video sharing, tweeting. * The game’s development. * Fan art. * Tutorials. * Dev interaction. * Decentralized gaming. Let us know if you have an idea not covered here! ### **How it works** Just get started on content creation then let us know at the end of each month what you have worked! * 📹Create content! * 📧 Send links plus details about the number of viewers / likes to \[**form now deprecated**]! (please wait for the new process to be published) * 🎉Get paid!\ ### **Streaming** * To Be Announced. ### **Tweeting** * To Be Announced. ## Game Modding As our game is fully open source, we would love to see our community develop mods and extensions for the game. Few games these days are open source, but it is one of our central tenets. We wish to honor the long history of game modders developing cool additions and alternate realities by providing them the ability to be rewarded for their efforts. However, we don’t have the capacity to provide much help yet. Planetarium encourages the community to develop mods for the game, but it may be some months before we can provide any support. Keep your eyes open for further announcements here as we are looking to run a competition for modding! For an indication of how the competition can work take a look at our [previous competition for art](https://medium.com/nine-chronicles/nine-chronicles-voxel-art-contest-feat-the-sandboxs-voxedit-d4aeea47eafa)! ## Software Grants Code is alchemy 🔮 ![](https://miro.medium.com/max/1795/1*vPCCaVTk37tL1YVf1HjBDg.png) Planetarium is offering grants to attract software developers who can build something useful for the Nine Chronicles game. Building something from our wishlist will greatly help the community; however, we are also interested in hearing from people who have cool ideas not featured on our wishlist. There is still a chance we can help fund the idea. The grants we provide may not cover 100% of the development costs. We will do our best to fairly compensate all community efforts with a mixture of fiat, NCG, and special in-game items.

Building something from our wishlist will greatly help the community; however, we are also interested in hearing from people who have cool ideas not featured on our wishlist. There is still a chance we can help fund the idea. The grants we provide may not cover 100% of the development costs. We will do our best to fairly compensate all community efforts with a mixture of fiat, NCG, and special in-game items. There are 2 ways that Planetarium can help fund teams: * Teams may be rewarded retroactively for their efforts and without the need for an application. This will be purely based on historical results and community impact. * Teams actively apply via this program in order to get paid as they work, on a milestone-by-milestone basis. ## Grant Offer We award grants for incentivize team to develop the Nine Chronicles ecosystem. Grant sizes are starting from 500 NCG but it can be up to 20,000 NCG if the project size is huge. Mostly, we offer NCG but if the project needs to get Fiat currency for specific reasons, let us know. ## Criteria The following is our list of criteria for assessing teams to fund. * Ideal length: 3 months. * Best to structure the work as 1 month = 1 milestone. * Open source license preferred * e.g. Apache 2, MIT, GPLv3. * Max funding per application: 20,000 NCG. * We prefer to pay in NCG or items, but amount of fiat can be possible. * Teams shouldn’t look to cover all of their development costs with a grant. * Teams should indicate why they are interested in supporting the Nine Chronicles Ecosystem and indicate why their team is a good fit. ## **Project Wishlist** The following is a list of projects that we would like to see be created. * Block explorer with game-like UI * Wallet integration for NCG * Browser extensions * API RPC clients in other languages (Javascript, Python, or language of your choice) * Miner monitoring tools * Ecosystem reward automation tool ## **How to apply** * Fill in the application form below with all the necessary details. * One question in the application form requires creating a Google Document (or similar) that includes the following information: * Tell us a bit about your project goals, motivations, needs, challenges, and any other information you feel is pertinent for us to know. * Include a roadmap that details the software specification over a number of milestones. * Here is a template for the document: [link](https://www.notion.so/Software-Grant-Application-Template-278bedc0e25b4d549f876586f7bfe0ae). * Once we’ve had a chance to review your application we will respond with any necessary changes. * Completed proposals will be reviewed at the next committee meeting and then we will let teams know if they have been successful with their application. You'll hear back from someone on the Ecosystem Support team very soon! We only collect the following information submitted and will not use or share for any purposes other than evaluation. ## Application Form To apply, please see the following application form ## Get in touch! If you have any questions that are not covered here then email us at [**contact@planetariumhq.com**](mailto:contact@planetariumhq.com) or come say hello on our [Discord channel](https://discord.gg/planetarium)! # NCIPs Nine Chronicles Improvement Proposals (NCIPs) ![](https://miro.medium.com/max/2400/1*5vN_thmn_PKGImmvNv1MtQ.png) Over the past month, our team has put together a process for the community to collaborate with us on improving Nine Chronicles. Now we are proud to introduce [Nine Chronicles Improvement Proposals](https://github.com/planetarium/NCIPs) (NCIPs). If you click the link, you will be taken to the NCIP Github page which describes how the process works. If the process seems daunting at first, don’t worry! You are always welcome to come and ask us questions in the ecosystem-supporters channel on [Discord](http://discord.gg/planetarium). First things first. What type of improvements do the NCIPs cover? The scope of the NCIPs includes the following: * Improvements to gameplay * New features * Updating existing features * Improvements to Lib9C (the blockchain code underlying Nine Chronicles) * Ecosystem improvements that benefit the game These are the type of activities that the NCIPs cover, but to make this easier to understand we can provide a few examples: * Adding a secondary currency to Nine Chronicles. * Changing the item upgrade system. * Creating a lobby for player avatars to hang out. * Developing a way to wrap game Costumes (such as the “Lion of Dawn” costume) and put those onto Ethereum. In the coming days, we will have a few real NCIPs written by the community leaders which will act as an example of how to correctly write an NCIP proposal. One of the most important points is having the community agree upon what improvements to add to the game. Coming up with new ideas is very easy and anyone can do that in the Suggestion room on Discord. We even have a Discord bot for recording suggestions, but order to take these ideas from suggestion to completion takes a lot of work. Therefore, only suggestions with the most backing from the community should be made into NCIPs. Small updates and bug fixes to the game are outside of the NCIP process. The developers will regularly make bug fixes that are quick to correct and don’t require community consensus. If you have any questions, then feel free to chat with us on [Discord](https://discord.gg/planetarium)! ## Get in touch!

Under the hood, it incorporates many features (e.g., digital signature, BFT consensus, data replication) of a blockchain. It has competitive advantages over other solutions for decentralized gaming: * *Embeddable*: A game app does not have to communicate with another running process, hence it doesn't require extra marshaling or processes management. To draw a parallel, Libplanet is closer to SQLite than MySQL or PostgreSQL. * *Isomorphic*: Libplanet is a .NET library, so every game logic can be written in the same language, C#, and run on the blockchain. No glue code or "smart contracts" are needed. * *Token-independent*: Unlike almost every blockchain system, it does not force users to create and deal with yet-another-cryptocurrency. Your game can be free to play, and enjoyed by regular gamers. To learn more about why Planetarium is creating technology for fully decentralized games, please refer to our [blog post](https://medium.com/planetarium/introducing-planetarium-powering-games-with-freedom-22ab1ab70e0e). # How to play ## How to create an account {% hint style="info" %} Nine Chronicles launcher is necessary to create your character.

## Start your first adventure ### 1. Tutorial 1\. When you first enter Nine Chronicles, Alex will guide you to the portal to the dungeons.
2\. If you press the portal, you will enter Stage 1. On every feature, a help popup will appear the first time you enter.
3\. When you clear the stage, you can gain experience and materials, and move on to the next stage. 4\. For the next stage, the cat warrior seems to be heading deeper into the forest. Remember the chain-shaped loading indicator. It is in the process of spreading your game history data to the blockchain.
5\. After stage 3, Alex will guide you to the workshop.
6\. If you clear the stage, you can get equipment recipes. Unlock the recipe and craft your first sword.
7\. The tutorial is over! Now, let me introduce the main systems. ### 2. Stage battle 1\. As an idle RPG, during the battle there are no required controls from the player’s side. The battle is fully simulated when a block is finalized, so your equipments will determine the fate of each battle. You can see how the battle unfolds here.
#### Victory If you win the battle, you can earn experience points. If it is enough to level up, your character will become more powerful. Every stage has its first Clear Reward. As we provide key items to proceed with the next stage, it will be fun to look at the Rewards tab and predict what challenges will come next. You didn’t get three stars on the stage? Don’t worry. You can earn rewards even if you don't perfectly clear a stage. If you don’t get three stars, you won’t be able to move on to the next stage, but you can come back after getting stronger. Additionally, you can still earn materials as rewards, which can be used to craft new items. See also **Create your own item** section. Also, clearing the stage unlocks more content. Nine Chronicles is full of advanced contents such as workshop, market, elemental stages and PvP battle arena. #### Defeat Even if you lose the battle, you can earn some experience, and sometimes even materials. Go find an easier stage and raise your level, or learn the stage’s enemy pattern so that you can equip better gear. 4\. On this page, you can decide which equipment and consumables to use for this stage adventure. This will be the most important step to defeat the higher stages. If you are ready to proceed, click the START button. It will use ⭐️ 5AP.
**Every action of Nine Chronicles uses “Action Power”.** You can refill the action power by clicking the glowing Prosperity Meter below when it is full. ### Create your own item You can create new items by using the materials you gathered inside dungeons. The number of slots for crafting or upgrading is limited to 4. You can see this in the workshop menu at the bottom. Optimizing what to craft when will affect your growth schedule.
#### Equipment The equipment tab has a variety of recipes. Gather materials through stage battle to forge a stronger gear. Each equipment has three sub-recipes. The better the recipe, the harder it is to collect the material, and sometimes NCG will be needed. Each recipe produces randomized result, which may vary wildly between crafts. The higher the stage you clear, the more recipes you can choose from. Open the locked slots one by one and upgrade your equipment.
#### Consumables You can gather various materials from the Nine Worlds to create food consumables. Food only works for a single stage, but the effect is powerful. If you create more delicious food, it will have a variety of added effects, which is very useful when exploring higher-level stages.
Crafting a new item takes time. You can check the progress through the workshop slot. Items will be delivered via mail when crafting is completed.
You can check the progress of both equipment and consumables in the quest menu on the top right of the screen. If they are completed, you will get a notification. Don't forget to click on the button to receive the goods.
#### Upgrade You can upgrade existing equipment by combining them with items that have the same grade and level. It will be very helpful if you have lots of same level equipment. The first few upgrades are free, but the rest will cost NCG. You can upgrade equipment by consuming 1 piece of equipment of the same upgrade level and of the same rank. If the upgrade is successful, the upgrade level increases by 1 and the stat increases by 8-12%. At certain upgrade levels, the options acquired by the equipment are also enhanced. If the upgrade fails, the material equipment disappears.
## How to trade items *You need to reach **stage 17** to activate item trade.* Nine Chronicles aims to be a fully decentralized P2P MMO, so there are no items sold by NPCs or game companies! Since all items are traded between players, the price of the item is determined by the market economy. ### Buy You can use gold to buy items that others have put on the sales list. Explore and purchase items created by adventurers. You can also buy items from different categories at once.
### Sell Sell your equipment and monster collection rewards. When selling an item, it is entirely up to you to determine the price. Watch the market price carefully. If you submit your items for sale, the items will not be available for dungeons.
## How to challenge others *You need to reach **stage 25** to challenge others.* Step inside the arena to challenge other users! Each challenge consumes a ticket, and the rating is reset every week.
The arena will reset its battle count after a set interval (currently approx. 6 hours), and the number of attempts will be limited to five. If you challenge a stronger opponent, you will gain more points and food material. ### Rankings Who are the top champions of Nine Chronicles? The ranking page offers various lists to identify our top players.

What is Nine Chronicles? Nine Chronicles is a free-to-play blockchain Idle MMORPG powered by the players. The game is a 100% decentralized fantasy world and is the first game based on Libplanet, a new Distributed Ledger Technology library for implementing P2P MMO games.
Who is the developer of Nine Chronicles? The game is developed by Nine Corporation and published by Planetarium Labs.
On which platforms is the game available? The game is available on PC and Mobile (limited launch to Asia at the moment). The mobile version doesn’t have the in-game marketplace yet, so playing on PC is recommended. You can also play on both platforms simultaneously for a better experience.
What do I need to start playing the game? The game is free, so create an account and play. You can create your account from:
Why not only build ownership in the game and have the rest of the game run on centralized servers? What happens when the centralized servers shut down? Will the "ownership" really matter if you can't access the game world?
Is this game on Ethereum? No, The game runs on its blockchain, but the game token (NCG) can be wrapped to the ETH and BNB chain. The D:CC NFTs are also on the Ethereum chain.
What Blockchain is the game using? The game uses its unique blockchain developed by Planetarium. Every single action done in the game is a transaction on the blockchain.
What elements of the game are stored on the blockchain? Is gameplay itself on the blockchain, all items, only certain items, spells, potions? Everything is stored on the blockchain. We've been working on a new blockchain engine to make this as easy as possible:
What hashing algorithm does it use? SHA256, similar to Bitcoin
Why are the game timers in blocks? Since the game runs fully on the blockchain, the actual unit of measurement is the block number. Usually, blocks run around 11 seconds.
Are there NFTs in this game? All the in-game items are technically NFTs, but they only exist on the Libplanet blockchain and can only be traded using the in-game market. D:CC is an NFT collection on the Ethereum chain made by the game team. They can be used as profile pictures and as in-game costumes. They can also be staked. You cannot mint them anymore but you can buy them from other players or from NFT websites such as OpenSea.
I know the Prosperity Meter is used to refill our AP, but how is the Prosperity Meter filled, and how fast does it get filled? The Prosperity Meter is filled slowly as blocks are mined. For every 1 block mined, the Prosperity Bar increases by 1. The speed at which blocks are mined varies, however, so the actual amount of time it takes for the Prosperity Meter to be fully filled is not always the same. The Prosperity Meter requires **1700** blocks to be fully filled. If we assume that the average block time at that time period is 12 seconds, then it would take roughly **340** minutes, or **5 hours and 40 minutes** for the Prosperity Meter to fill.
## ## Security
Invitation Code Private Key, Nine Chronicles ID: They all look the same to me, so what's the difference? Explain like I'm 5 They may all look like they've been randomly generated, and perhaps, they really are. What differentiates them is their purpose. **Invitation Code =** Used to activate a newly created Nine Chronicles Account. You can find the Invitation CodeField after logging in from the Launcher. One-time use only. **Private Key =** This is like the Secret PIN of your Bank Cards. Show this to people and you are pretty much doomed. A Private Key is used to gain access to an account, recover an account, and change the account password. Basically, having a Private Key is like having the key to a bank vault. **Nine Chronicles ID =** This is widely known as a Cryptocurrency Address to many. It looks similar to Private Keys and Invitation Codes in the sense that they look like an incomprehensible set of randomly generated characters ( I mean, they probably are... Yeah ), but you can differentiate between them because a Nine Chronicles ID will always, always start with **0x.** Your Nine Chronicles ID is also used to accept NCG transfers from another player, so it is safe to show to other people. Although, people who has your Nine Chronicles ID can check your account activity through the block explorer.
Where is my Nine Chronicles ID? If you have created a Nine Chronicles account, open your launcher. Look for the random string of characters that starts with 0x, and you have your answer.
Why is Private Key Important? Nine Chronicles uses blockchain technology to run, and it doesn't have a central server or a central authority. While blockchain technology has its pros, it also has its cons. We can't change passwords the same way we change passwords everywhere else, and we also can't just log in on new devices as easily as in traditional platforms and games. Private Key is important because: * It is one of only two means a player can recover their account in case they had to change device * It is the only means a player can change their password * Private Key ownership entails ownership of the entire account, including characters, currency, and items These are the reasons we always remind everyone to back up their Private Keys securely and never to share with anybody else. (Members of Planetarium or CST will never ask for your private key). Losing your Private Key is akin to losing everything you own in the game; no one can help you recover it.
Where do I find my Private Key? You can copy it from the in-game settings.
Is there any way I can get my private key back? No, only you can access your private key, so it’s to you to back it up safely.
How can I check my activity and transactions in the block explorer? Go to and search for your address (Nine Chronicles ID). All your actions are visible to everyone.
## NCG (Nine Chronicles Gold)
What is NCG (Nine Chronicles Gold)? Nine Chronicles Gold (NCG) is the main currency used in the world of Nine Chronicles. Players can spend NCG to craft powerful items, trade with other users, challenge each other, and accelerate growth. NCG isn't necessary in the beginning stages of exploration, but the game is designed so that NCG's needs are gradually increased as players grow more powerful. Eventually, players can stake NCG to earn potions and unique items that can be used by them or sold to other users for profit.
NCG Maximum Supply Cap? 1,000,000,000 NCG ( 1 Billion NCG )
What is WNCG? WNCG is the cryptocurrency and is an erc20 coin (Wrapped Nine Chronicle Gold), Not to be confused with NCG (Nine Chronicle Gold), which is the game currency of the Nine Chronicles Game and can be converted to WNCG with the ratio of 1:1
How can I earn Nine Chronicles Gold? * **Participate in the events:** * For now, the main event is the Arena. It pays NCG only during the competitive seasons — they are announced in advance, and the top players get most of the rewards, but everyone who joins earns something. * **Trade:** * Sell what you craft for NCG in the in-game market. * **Do the onboarding activities:** * The onboarding website rewards daily playing, and there are some additional tasks you can complete for more NCG. * * **Get involved in the community:** * If you can bring valuable contribution, you might get paid for it. * * Some examples: join the content creator program or if you have programming skills and some ideas, and you can apply for a grant.
Where can NCG be traded? NCG is only available in the game, but WNCG can be traded on external platforms.
What is NCG Staking a.k.a Monster Collection In Nine Chronicles, players can receive AP potions, Hourglasses, and other limited consumables regularly by staking NCG. Specifically, *AP potions and Hourglasses, which are crucial for the character’s growth acceleration,* can only be generated by staking NCG. The demand for these two items would naturally increase as the competition between the players intensifies. This finally contributes to the appreciation of NCG. Along with receiving in-game items that can be sold to other players, the staking feature also effectively reduces the surplus supply of NCG. *In this way, the game business is shared along with the players!*
Are there rewards for staking NCG? The in game staking doesn’t directly give NCG but the rewards can be traded. Players earn Action Point potions (they replenish the in game “energy”), Hourglasses (they can be used to finish the crafting faster) and also get passive perks and bonuses (more arena rewards, more crystals gained, lower energy cost for actions). Players can also stake WNCG outside of the game and get WNCG in return.
What happens to the 8% market tax and the NCG fees from crafting? Are they burned? The NCG from market tax and crafting fees aren't exactly burned. They don't completely disappear. Instead, they move to an inaccessible address we call the Treasury Account. The treasury account is time-locked, and so the NCG that moves there cannot go out until this lock is lifted.
Can players mine NCG? No, the community mining has been disabled, and the chain is now transitioning towards a Proof of Stake system.
## ## Withdrawal (Nine Chronicles portal)
How long does it take to withdraw? Once your withdrawal request is submitted, it may take 10\~30 minutes depending on the network conditions. You can find your transaction ID (Tx ID) on Withdrawal history in "My Account > Withdrawal", and you can monitor the status with it. If your withdrawal request requires an approval from Planetarium, it may take up to 3 business day.
My withdrawal transaction is failed. What should I do? If the withdrawal transaction is failed, your NCG will be returned back to your portal balance within 24 hours. If the issue persists, please contact via Discord(Community Menu -> Discord) on #help-request.
I can not make new withdrawal request. You must be eligible to withdraw your NCG in portal balance. When you don’t meet the minimum requirements for withdrawal, you can check the reason from the portal. If you believe there’s something wrong with the system or your account, please contact via Discord(Community Menu -> Discord) on #help-request.

# Nine Chronicles Portal
The Nine Chronicles portal was created to help you play the game. Learn about Nine Chronicles, install the game, and start playing. To use the portal, you'll need a Discord or Twitter account. On the Nine Chronicles Portal, you can earn rewards by playing the game directly or by participating in community activities. Looking for bigger rewards? Join regularly scheduled Arenas or challenge World Bosses. # Connect Nine Chronicles address to the portal ## How to connect your Nine Chronicles address to the portal To connect Nine Chronicles address to the portal, you need to visit "My Account > My Info." You can find the button on the menu, after you signed in.

My Info is only accessible after you signed in.

If you are not connected your address yet, you may find "Connect" button on this page.
Click the Connect button, then this screen will be popped up. Copy the address from the launcher, and paste it to finish this step.
# How to connect multiple account providers {% hint style="danger" %} Signing in with discord makes a new account. Discord accounts that are connected to an account cannot be disconnected by policy, so be cautious before signing with Discord. {% endhint %} We've added a new feature to our service called “Sign in with Discord”. With the addition of this feature, you can now add multiple login methods to your portal account. ## How can I connect to my account with another service? 1. Sign in with your original portal account by Twitter. 2. Go to ‘My Account’ page by ‘My Info’ button in menu. 3. Select the service you want to connect to.
4. Click the Connect button. 5. Authorize the Nine Chronicles portal to access your Twitter or Discord. 6. If successfully authorized, the ‘My Account’ page will show all connected services.
7. After the connection is complete, both Discord and Twitter will be available for login. ## Notes: 1. If you select Sign in with Discord first without signing in to your existing portal account, a new account will be created instead of connecting with your existing portal account. Accounts created in this way cannot be consolidated later. 2. If you are unable to access the Twitter account you previously used on the Portal, you can regain access using your Nine Chronicles address. Please integrate Discord through the account recovery page, not through your Twitter login. 3. Only email-verified Discord accounts can be used to sign in to the portal. # Recover your portal access Check this document when you're not able to access your Twitter or Discord. ## Background Previously, the Nine Chronicles portal only supported Twitter for signing up. This meant that if you lost access to your Twitter account, you couldn’t access your portal account. To prevent this, we have created a feature that allows you to recover your portal account access by verifying your ownership of a Nine Chronicles address. {% hint style="warning" %} This feature is a temporary solution that can only be utilized if you encounter issues with a thrid-party account provider that was previously linked to your Portal account. To log-in, you will need your Nine Chronicles address and keystore file or private key. Additionally, Ensure that your address is not connected from other networks, such as Ethereum. {% endhint %} ## How to recover your access to the portal account To recover your access, you need to follow 3 steps. 1. Visit [Account Recovery page](https://portal-recovery.nine-chronicles.com/). 2. Verify your ownership of the Nine Chronicles address connected to your portal account.

To get Mead to play the game, you need a patron to support you. Getting a patron won't cost you, at least for now, as Planetarium serves as your patron to play Nine Chronicles. However, Planetarium is the only patron at the moment, meaning in order to earn Mead, you must be registered (signup) at the Nine Chronicles Portal. This may seem a little unconventional given that Planetarium and Nine Chronicles pursue creating a decentralized game. The method of generating Mead is still being considered, including the patron system itself. The patron system is a core component of the Mead system, and following updates will provide detailed guides on how one can become a patron and who will be qualified for the role. In the near future, there may be multiple Mead providers in various forms. The exact method of generating Mead is still being considered, including the patron system itself. The patron system is a core component of the Mead system, and updates will be made to determine how one can become a patron and who will have that role. In the near future, there may be multiple Mead providers in various forms. \ For more detailed context, please refer to below. ### 🛡️ **Planetarium’s approach to Abusers (a.k.a Bots)** It has come to our attention that players or automated systems are engaging in excessive transaction spam, which disrupts the harmony of Nine Chronicles. Our team has implemented various measures to address this issue, such as limiting the number of transactions created per hour and implementing IP address bans. We maintain constant surveillance over Nine Chronicles to protect it from potential harm. In our ongoing efforts, we recognize the importance of disabling the potential benefits of a “multi-account” approach rather than solely focusing on it (just to clarify, multi-accounting is still not allowed). The existence of a centralized entity with the power to impose bans implies that any account, including yours, could be controlled by such an entity. Moreover, we consider the ability to exploit protocol-level benefits as a vulnerability that requires fundamental improvements at the protocol level rather than reactive measures against individual cases of abuse. ### **🍯 Okay, then, What is Mead?** To pursue the aforementioned goals, we will be introducing network fees. However, we are committed to ensuring that these fees do not hinder players from enjoying a “free-to-play” experience. This is where “Mead” comes into play, as a dedicated currency specifically for fees. The exact method of generating Mead is still under consideration, with Validator rewards being one potential source, but precise plans have not been finalized. During the initial implementation phase, the portal will temporarily serve as the supplier of Mead required for the game. As we progress, alternative methods to generate Mead will be introduced by the end of the year. Consequently, all users will be required to join the portal temporarily. However, for users who pose significant harm to the network, restrictions on the supply of Mead may be imposed to limit their network usage. # In case you pre-registered with Discord or Twitter ## ## English ### Background Twitter and Discord are temporarily not supported in the mobile client.
