Just as real is the rush on #GaiasTears, which are roughly 10x as expensive in $JEWEL as they were a few weeks ago -- presumably, on widespread speculation that they will be a key ingredient necessary to bump one's chances of hatching a #MythicPet and decreasing incubation time:
Once your #Ramp transaction is complete, you'll find that $ONE will appear in your account.
Go to the Marketplace on the #Serendale map, click on the Trader, and either swap your $ONE (but not ALL of it; gas!) for $JEWEL, or directly for the item you want (like a grey egg):
If any of this doesn't work for you, go to -- you guessed it! -- the @DefiKingdoms Discord, navigate to the #serendale-support channel, and the kind and knowledgeable people there will help you identify the potential hiccups.
[2] The #DFK roadmap is long, and profession is just a "small piece of the puzzle" (to quote a @DefiKingdoms dev.) But profession quests are probably the first thing you'll do with your new hero.
You'll do them for at least two reasons: "loot" and "xp." What are these?
$JEWEL
[3] As this helpful @Samichpunch article explains, heroes have a "level," a "profession skill level," and an xp bar that reflects one's progress toward the next level.
This is a LEVEL 2 hero with a .5 score in gardening and 1371 xp toward level 3.
[1] Many new #DefiKingdoms players find it difficult to narrow down their choices to a single first hero, and to determine whether this or that hero is a good buy.
On the #DFK Discord, we've helped literally thousands of people buy their first hero.
Here are some useful tips:
[2] Start by setting a rough price cap for your first hero. It's almost impossible to determine whether X hero is right FOR YOU until you've done that, because heroes are like houses or cars: you can always get more if you spend more.
But roughly how high should the cap be?
[3] Your first #DFK hero purchase will probably not be your best strategic buy. You simply don't know enough yet to make the quick decision necessary to snap up the best deals.
So consider starting with a budget of 50 to 75 $JEWEL for your first hero, avoiding absolute floor...
If you have some idea of how #DefiKingdoms works, but are still a bit lost, you probably need one or more of these resources (pinned to #herodiscussion channel in the #DFK Discord.)
The first is a chart of the hero classes, by tier (basic, advanced, elite, exalted) and land:
The second is this spreadsheet showing where each class excels and lags (and there is no "perfect" class of #DFK hero):
Because the #DFK devs just announced some amazing stuff. Pet egg prices are up, people are composing their 1/3/9-hero teams for #DFKDuel, and there is great joy throughout the land. Here's why...
I was excited about #DFKDuel before, but now I'm positively inebriated with anticipation.
"Duels can be fought in groups of 1, 3, or 9 Heroes, with varying levels of rewards for each tier. As you win matches, your score will increase and you will climb the ranks."
Having preached for months on accumulating eggs to enhance hero utility in profession, crafting, and combat, I was thrilled with the devs' reveal of the egg incubation interface.
Yes, I'll take a 10x chance of a mythic pet, please.
