SALAMANDER: THE SEEKER

● TAP: Hold the extraction line and pull EMBER out of the core, one strike of the finger at a time. Thermal runs from 250 to 500, criticals spike the yield, and nine upgrades decide how much a single tap is worth.

● ARCADE: SIX skill-based mini-games: SIGNAL TRACE; CIPHER LOCK; REACTION GRID; SCAN THE GRID; ECHO SYNC; PHASE LOCK. Test your reflexes, memory, and timing to earn extra EMBER.

● BOSS: Shatter 10 tiers of Fragment bosses using 3 daily stabilization strikes (8h cooldown). Boss progress persists across monthly seasons, pushing you toward ASCENSION

● ARENA: Train 6 combat stats (DAMAGE; HEALTH; DODGE; CRITICAL; ARMOR; ARMOR PIERCE) with FREE 40 seasonal points. Face real players in fair, bot-free PvP with scouting mechanics.

● EXPEDITION: A 10-floor PvE dive using tactical combat (ATTACK > DEFEND > COUNTER). Clear floors to unlock seasonal boons that enhance your PvP and Tournament builds.

● TOURNAMENT: A monthly 4-stage season: Warmup, Ladder, 32-player SWISS, and PLAYOFF. The TOP 32 players split EMBER and CORES.

● PASS: 100 levels of seasonal rewards unlocked through gameplay. The Free track runs the full length; the Premium track doubles down with extra Cores and boosters.

● QUESTS: 12 objectives on three schedules: 4 daily, 4 weekly, and 4 seasonal. Rewards scale with difficulty and are multiplied by your permanent Resonance.

● PROFILE & COMMUNITY: Track lifetime stats, inspect any player, and wear any Solana NFT as your avatar. Includes private anti-scam chat, news broadcasts, and live player presence.

● RANK: SEASONAL and ALL-TIME leaderboards. High Seeker Index ranks award EMBER and CORES when the monthly cycle closes.
