Earth 2, a virtual world where players can buy and sell virtual land, has introduced a new reward system for gamers called Red Energy. This article explains what Red Energy is, how it can be obtained, and the benefits of using it in the game.

What is Red Energy?

Red Energy is a new type of in-game currency/energy that is introduced into Earth2 to reward players for participating in activities that contain some form of conflict inside Earth2. It is defined by the Earth2 team as an energized, gas-like matter that is attracted to areas of conflict within Earth 2.

Red Energy Lore with a Twist: The Modified Version by author

In the mystical land of Earth 2, there exists a powerful force known as Red Energy. It is a strange and energized gas-like matter that is said to be drawn to areas of conflict like a magnet. Its origin is shrouded in mystery, and its true nature remains unknown, but one thing is certain: Red Energy is a force to be reckoned with.

The energy has a peculiar ability to sense conflict and is quick to attach itself to the victor or the spoils of war. This makes it a valuable asset for those who seek power and dominance. The Red Energy attaches itself to its chosen champion or group, granting them extraordinary strength and abilities and almost invincible.

The manner in which Red Energy chooses its host is unknown, and it seems to have a mind of its own. Sometimes it attaches itself to a single victor, while at other times, it is distributed among a special group of participants. There is no set pattern to its logic, and even the most powerful sorcerers and magicians have been unable to decipher its secrets.

Many factions and organizations seek to control Red Energy, as it is a potent source of power that can tip the scales of conflict in their favor. However, those who seek to control it must be wary, as Red Energy has been known to turn against its own host if it senses weakness or a lack of resolve.

How do I get Red Energy?

To acquire Red Energy in Earth 2, players may engage in conflict-oriented activities such as raids or battles with fellow players. It is important to highlight that obtaining Red Energy requires no additional effort beyond the player’s intended involvement in these activities.

It is worth noting that at present, active participation in raiding is the sole means of obtaining Red Energy, with players earning 1 Red Energy for each Ether accrued. For instance, if your Cydroid accumulates 3 Ether during a raid, you will be rewarded with 3 Red Energy.

Red energy rewards were given retrospectively, so if you collected Ether from previous raids, you would have received the rewards. Check your transaction history.

RBA: Rewards, Badges, and Achievements:

Earth 2 plans to incentivize active gameplay with its Rewards, Badges, and Achievements (RBA) system. This system includes multiple Energy types, with Red Energy being the first introduced as a player participation or achievement reward.

The RBA tech tree is vast, reaching through all areas of Earth 2, and has numerous branches. Most of these branches will be initially hidden and only revealed to players upon unlocking new achievements. Shane Issac, the CEO of Earth2 has given a warning to Earth2 players that they may need to exercise caution before sharing their accomplishments and discoveries with others, as the benefits of specific achievements may diminish as more players complete them.

Once players have Red Energy, they can redeem it for a range of benefits and rewards that will become available from time to time.

Red Energy: Potential Uses

Initially, and for a limited time, the primary use of Red Energy in Earth 2 will be to energize newly purchased Tier 1 properties, with a range of other potential applications in the future.

Step-by-Step Guide to Purchasing Tier 1 Land with Red Energy:

1. Select up to 750 tiles in your preferred country on the map.
2. Click on the “BUY NOW” button.
3. Tick the checkbox to unlock your selected tiles as Tier 1 land by using your Red Energy.

4. Ensure that you have 3 units of Red Energy for each tile selected for purchase.

5. If you have an insufficient balance of Red Energy, earn more by successfully raiding and collecting E-ther.

Unveiling the Secrets: The Analysis of Buying T1 Land — Based on Available Data

Disclaimer: Please note that the information is provided for general knowledge purposes only and should not be considered financial advice. We strongly advise individuals to conduct their own research and exercise caution before making any financial decisions.

As Red Energy becomes available for a brief window, players are eagerly snapping up vast swathes of T1 land in Earth2, hoping to capitalize on the chance. But what is the underlying rationale driving this purchasing strategy? A closer examination reveals intriguing insights

When Earth 2 first launched, Tier 1 land was the sole class available to buyers. Later, the platform introduced Tier 2 lands (with a more balanced distribution of value and utility) and stopped selling T1 lands. Tier 1 land still boasts significant advantages and greater potential than its Tier 2 counterparts.

The advent of Red Energy in Earth2 has presented users with a unique opportunity to purchase Tier 1 land directly from the map.

The Tier 1 land class consists of several distinct classes, with Class 1 being the most precious and valuable. When a user acquires new land using Red Energy, the class of the land is determined by the class of the last sold T1 land.

Initially, certain locations on Earth2 were either locked or considered part of the international territory, resulting in the release of Tier 2 land when these areas were unlocked. However, for these same countries, any new land purchased with Red Energy will commence as Tier 1 land and will be classified as Class 1.

This presents a beneficial opportunity for those interested in acquiring Class 1 or Class 2 tiles at a reduced cost and has resulted in many buying large quantities of land in countries like Christmas Island, Virgin Islands (U.S.), French Guiana, French Polynesia, Puerto Rico, Northern Mariana Islands, Bonaire, Sint Eustatius and Saba, Bouvet Island, Curaçao, etc.

Additionally, some players are purchasing land in the hopes of obtaining the promised essence.

When you purchase Tier 1 land on Earth2, you will receive a minimum amount of “Essence Promised” with it. However, while Essence was previously distributed to all countries with Tier 1 land, those countries that initially had Tier 2 land did not receive the Promised Essence. So there is a possibility that these new T1 lands might get some promised essence.

However, if you do get any Essence, it might not be a larger quantity per tile, because the Tier 1 land in these countries is priced lower than other Tier 1 lands that received more Essence.

It is worth noting that while there is a possibility of receiving Promised Essence with a Tier 1 land purchase, this is purely speculative and not guaranteed. As such, individuals should not solely rely on the possibility of receiving Promised Essence and should consider other factors when making a Tier 1 land purchase on Earth2.

Things to remember when buying new land:

• Check T1 and T2 land prices before you buy. Use the below check box to toggle between prices. Buy based on strategy and price.

• If you are looking to buy Tier 1 land on Earth2, it is important to check the prices of both newly available T1 land and T1 land being sold in the marketplace. In some countries, the prices of T1 land may be quite high, and there may be better offers available in the marketplace. Therefore, it is recommended that you compare the prices of newly available T1 land with those being sold in the marketplace before making a purchase. This way, you can make an informed decision and potentially save money.
• Use referral codes when buying land. If you would like to support us, please use our referral code “OFFER” to receive a 7.5% discount on your purchase. (If you find the article helpful, you may also consider buying the author a coffee. The link is provided below.)
• Check if the Tier 1 land tile you’re buying, whether it’s new or from the marketplace, is a land tile or water tile. Keep in mind that new Tier 1 land in some areas is only available as water tiles, which may have drawbacks for building or accessing resources. Ensure that you understand what type of tile you want to purchase before making a decision.

Red Energy on Earth 2: A New Reward System for Gamers was originally published in Planet Earth2 on Medium, where people are continuing the conversation by highlighting and responding to this story.

Earth2 is introducing a new autonomous vehicle called “Cydroid” that aims to enhance the gameplay experience inside the virtual world. Cydroids can assist users in various in-game activities, including completing tasks, participating in battles, collecting valuable resources like Ether, and performing raids.

In a recent video, Shane Isaac, CEO, and founder of Earth 2 unveiled Cydroids and their potential impact on the gameplay experience. Shane emphasized that Cydroids will be an important aspect of the game and will be integrated into the raiding system. He also mentioned that these avatars will also be utilized as a tool for testing key game mechanics that will have long-term relevance for the eventual release of the 3D World version of Earth 2.

Building Cydroids in Earth2

• Players must have an Earth2 property of at least 4 tiles with an existing Mentar to build a Cydroid.
• Players can build Cydroids for 2.5 Essence each, with a default build time of 24 hours.

• There are over 35 different types of Cydroids, which are grouped into different levels of rarity. The type of Cydroid that is built will only be revealed once the construction is complete.
• After building a Cydroid, it becomes tethered to the Mentar on the property where it was constructed.
• The number of Cydroids that a player can create is based on the number of properties they own and the number of tiles in each property. For example, if a player owns a 12-tile property, they will be able to create 2 Cydroids. Conversely, the more tiles a player has available in a property, the more Cydroids they will be able to create.

Powering Cydroids: The Role of Power Cells

• Cydroids are powered by Power Cells, which are currently located inside the Cydroid. However, in future updates, they may be made into a separate standalone unit.
• To operate, Power Cells require Essence. Each Cydroid will consume 5 Essence to be powered, which can be fully regained without spending additional essence.
• In addition, players can recover all Essence used to power a Power Cell by depowering it when it is fully charged.

Utilizing Cydroids in Raiding

• Once a Cydroid is powered, it can be sent to raid properties within range and scan them for unstable E-ther.
• If the Cydroid is successful in collecting E-ther, it will store as much as it can in its storage bay (default capacity of 3 E-ther) and return to the Mentar it was sent from.
• If multiple Cydroids are simultaneously present at the same property and unstable E-ther becomes available, they will split the loot evenly. However, if an even split is not possible, a random algorithm will determine the distribution.
• After returning to the Mentar, Cydroids can dispense any E-ther they have collected, with a default time of 30 seconds per 0.01 E-ther. (50 minutes/E-ther)

Relocating and Recharging a Cydroid:

• Cydroids can only be recharged at the Mentar they are tethered to. If a Cydroid runs out of power during a raid, the Mentar can use the tether to pull it back, though at a slow pace.
• Cydroids can also be relocated between inter-networked Mentars (Mentars that belong to the same player), at a longer distance but with less power consumption.
• After relocating, Cydroids need to re-tether to the new Mentar.

Understanding Energy Consumption in Cydroids

• Cydroids have various energy consumption states that drain different amounts of power from the Power Cell, such as Idle, Recharging, Dispensing E-ther, Scanning, Collecting, Travelling to a Raid, and Relocating between Mentars.
• Additionally, Cydroids can be slotted with various types of Jewels to give them various types of Boosts across most of their various attributes.

Properties of Cydroid: A Closer Look at Speed, Storage, and More

The properties of a Cydroid are important characteristics that determine how it performs in the game. These properties include speed, storage, battery status, energy efficiency, max raid distance, and max relocation distance.

1. Speed: This refers to how quickly the Cydroid is able to move from one place to another. A Cydroid with a high-speed rating will be able to travel faster for raids or during relocation. On the initial launch, Cydroids have a default speed of 20km/h.
2. Storage: This refers to how much space is available on the Cydroid for carrying Ether. The default storage bay on a Cydroid will hold 3 E-ther.
3. Battery Status: This refers to the current level of energy that the Cydroid has available to use. Once the charge is over it has to go back to the mentar for charging.
4. Energy Efficiency: This refers to how efficiently the Cydroid uses its energy when performing tasks. A Cydroid with a high energy efficiency rating will be able to perform tasks using less energy than one with a low energy efficiency rating.
5. Max Raid Distance: This refers to the maximum distance that the Cydroid is able to travel during a raid. A Cydroid with a high max raid distance rating will be able to travel farther during a raid than one with a low max raid distance rating. On the initial launch, Cydroids have a default raiding distance of 1 km.
6. Max Relocation Distance: This refers to the maximum distance that the Cydroid is able to travel when being relocated. A Cydroid with a high max relocation distance rating will be able to travel farther when being relocated than one with a low max relocation distance rating. The default relocation range for a Cydroid is 300 km.

Players will have access to 35 different types of Cydroids. These Cydroids will have similar functionalities at the outset, such as the ability to raid properties for unstable E-ther, but it is possible that in future updates, the developers may introduce new Cydroids or update current Cydroids with unique properties or abilities.

Upgrading Cydroids: Boosting Attributes with Jewels

It is possible to upgrade Cydroids using special jewels. Some examples of abilities that can be upgraded include speed and storage capacity. Upgrading a Cydroids can be very helpful, especially when it is being used for tasks such as raiding.

Each type of jewel provides a notable boost to the droid’s abilities. The following is a list of the different types of jewels and the boosts they provide (note that this information is subject to change):

Refer below article for recipes for crafting the jewels

Earth2: Jewel Crafting — Tier 3 Jewels

Selling Cydroids:

In Earth2, Cydroids will be treated as digital assets and can be sold in the marketplace (Player to Player), much like any other in-game items. In the future, it will be possible to package Cydroids with land and sell them as a bundle.

When a Cydroid is sold, it goes through a process called tethering in the backend. This process records the Cydroid’s adaptation to its new environment and establishes a connection with its new owner, enabling it to function effectively in its new surroundings and establish a relationship with its new mentar.

Earth2: Cydroids Explained was originally published in Planet Earth2 on Medium, where people are continuing the conversation by highlighting and responding to this story.

Earth2, the popular metaverse platform with over 100,000 land owners, has announced a partnership with Ready Player Me, a web-based tool for creating and customizing avatars.

Earth 2, a startup company that has grown into the world’s largest Virtual Land Registry, is building a digital replica of Earth at a 1:1 scale. Earth 2 has already sold over 100 million tile land parcels and is continuing to expand.

Ready Player Me’s avatars, which are covered under a Creative Commons Attribution license, can be used in more than 4,000 games and apps across multiple platforms. The platform supports both half-body and full-body avatars, giving users the ability to fully customize their representation in virtual environments.

This partnership will allow Earth2 users to easily create and customize their own avatars, adding to the immersive experience of the metaverse. It’s an exciting development for both Earth2 and Ready Player Me, and we can’t wait to see what the future holds!

A Brief History of Ready Player Me

‘Ready Player Me’ is a technology company that has been developing its platform for the past eight years. It originated from Wolf3D, a company that worked with various clients to create custom avatar systems. Through this work, Ready Player Me has compiled a database of over 20,000 face scans created using its own 3D scanners. This database was used to build a deep-learning platform that can produce real-time animated avatars from 2D and 3D images.

The avatars produced by this platform are designed to accurately predict and render realistic faces. The technology can be used on desktop, web, and mobile devices.

Ready Player Me Avatar API addresses the challenges of creating a universal avatar system

The Ready Player Me Avatar API is tackling the challenges of creating an avatar system that works well for a wide range of games and applications.

The API provides developers with controls to customize the appearance and behavior of the avatars, as well as tune their performance, in order to enable interoperability and improve the user experience.

One way the API does this is by utilizing mesh level of detail, morph targets, and Draco mesh compression, which can help reduce the size and memory consumption of the avatars. The API also allows developers to define pose and hand configuration, giving them the ability to tailor the avatars to their specific needs.

The Ready Player Me Avatar API has set its sights on becoming a widely adopted standard for avatar interoperability in the gaming industry. The company has made it easy for developers to integrate avatars into their applications, thanks to a simple design. With the increasing importance of avatars in the gaming world, the Ready Player Me Avatar API is positioning itself as a go-to solution for developers looking to offer their users a customizable and personalizable gaming experience.

What are the advantages for Earth2 players?

The decision to partner with Ready Player Me would mean that users of Earth2 would be able to use their avatars in a variety of different environments and games, both inside and outside of Earth2. This would allow for greater flexibility and convenience for users, as they would not need to create separate avatars for each individual game or application.

In addition, the ability to use non-fungible tokens (NFTs) purchased outside of Earth2 within the game would allow for even more customization options for users. This could potentially include items such as special clothing or accessories for their avatars.

The future of Metaverse has never looked brighter with Earth2 and the Ready Player Me leading the charge.

Earth2 and Ready Player Me team up to bring the ultimate Metaverse experience! was originally published in Planet Earth2 on Medium, where people are continuing the conversation by highlighting and responding to this story.

On December 16, 2022, the founder of Earth2 Shane Isaac held an AMA (Ask Me Anything) session on Twitch with Earth2 users and fans. In case you don’t have time to watch the entire video, here are the main points that were discussed during the AMA. The Twitch link is provided at the end of the Article.

About Raiding Functionality:

The Earth2 team is working towards introducing raiding in production environment by the end of 2022 or early 2023. Before launching this highly anticipated feature, the team wants to ensure that everything is thoroughly tested and optimized.

During the testing phase, Earth2 dev rebuilt the back end of the system to better support raiding functionality. While testing is running smoothly, it’s important to note that the initial release of raiding may not include the jewel boost feature.

In a future update, Earth2 will introduce a specialized droid that can extract Ether from properties with no Mentars. However, it will be necessary for other droids to collect the Ether afterward. It’s worth noting that the player who extracts the Ether during raiding may not have complete ownership, as other competitive players may be able to collect the ether in the meantime.

About Cydroid:

Cydroid, is a type of droid that can initiate raids on properties. Cydroid was previously known as droids, but the name was changed due to copyright issues with the word “droid” from the Star Wars franchise.

When there are multiple scattered tiles within a single property, Cydroid will be placed at the calculated center of the property. From there, the Cydroid will initiate the raid.

In the future, players may have the ability to control Cydroids in battles within specific closed areas in the game.

There are currently over 35 types of Cydroid in development, and all of them will have the same abilities at the start. They will be divided into 5 groups of rarity, and each Cydroid will have different abilities and visual representations based on their functionality. All 35 Cydroids will be available at launch and will be randomly allocated to players.

Currently, any two Cydroids on a property will have equal abilities. Jewels will increase the distance or collecting power of Cydroid, but the ability to collect ether will be the same for all Cydroids.

In the future, a secondary market for Cydroids will be available, allowing players to trade their Cydroids. When purchasing Cydroids from the market, players will need to allocate them to a specific property or mentar. If a Cydroid is tethered to a property and the property is sold, the Cydroid will also be part of the sale.”

Civilians

In the future, Earth2 will introduce civilians, a new type of in-game character. In order to create a civilian, players will need to pay an initial cost in ether. Currently, civilians do not require any additional resources to sustain them, but this may change in the future when agriculture is introduced.

At this time, each property is limited to a maximum of 5 civilians, as the mentor can only accommodate that many. However, once residential buildings are introduced, this number may increase based on the number of buildings on the property.

Ether will be used to synthesize civilians, and it is expected that this feature will be available as early as the first quarter of 2023.

Upcoming Functionalities and Features in Earth2

Agriculture and farming elements will be coming to Earth2 in a future release.

Eggs will not have any special abilities in raiding but may add interesting egg-related advantages to other functionalities at a later date.

Ether generation now occurs at random times, and the ether will remain in the property for 96 hours. During the first 24 hours, only the owner of the property can collect the ether. Afterward, other players will be able to raid the property and collect the ether.

In the future, the process of collecting essence from one’s own property may involve some gameplay. Currently, users can collect essence with one click.

As Earth2 becomes more complex with the introduction of new elements, players may have to pick and choose which activities they want to pursue within the game.

Tile merging will not be released before raiding is available.

For small accounts, it may become more difficult to extract jewels from properties. However, the Ranger civilian will be able to search for spawned jewels. In the long term, it is possible that players will be able to find jewels in other players’ properties if the jewels are not collected by the property owner.

The puzzle for Remembrance Day has not yet been solved, and it will require a lot of thinking to solve it.

Synopsis of Earth2 AMA on 12/16 was originally published in Planet Earth2 on Medium, where people are continuing the conversation by highlighting and responding to this story.

With the right partnership and exciting launches, Earth2, the Earth-sized metaverse has made great progress in the last couple of months. The newest functionality being launched is the Earth2 Player Resource Validation system, which will help users validate the availability of resources in the land they own. The best part is that Earth2 will pay additional Essence if the validation claim is successful.

Earth2 Resources:

The tiles you own in Earth2 will produce resources if the corresponding location on Earth is known to have the same resource. As of July 10, 2022, Earth2 has already released 4 resources — Gold, Oil, Iron Ore, and Coal.

If your land/tile is expected to generate any of the above resources, resource-related tags should already be available on the land/tiles. You can also toggle to the Heat Map view to understand the concentration of resources across the world.

Gold:

Oil:

Iron Ore:

Coal:

Below are some key points to note regarding resources (as shared by the Earth2 team)

Currently, there are no dashboards or views where you can view a summary of the resources in your properties. You have to go through each property and check for resources (Yes, the same property can generate multiple resources)

If your property is supposed to have some particular resource and still it’s not listed, that's where the resource validation system will come into play.

What is Earth2 Player Resource Validation?

If you own a tile/land which in the real world has resources, say you own a piece of land in the Muruntau mine in Uzbekistan. But Earth2 has not tagged your land with ‘Gold’ as a resource. Then you can submit a claim to validate the gold resource in your property.

Once a claim is submitted, it would be moved to a queue visible for all Earth2 players. Other players/community members can review the claims and decide to stake some essence on the claim. The more people support the claim, the higher it will be in the queue.

Once a claim is validated by the Earth2 team, the resource will start showing up in the tiles (and at a future date the resource will actually start generating from the tile). Every user who supported the claim will get the staked essence back and some bonus essence depending on the amount of essence staked.

What are must-haves for a successful claim?

For a successful resource claim, you need to

• Own tiles in Earth2
• Tiles shouldn’t already be tagged for the same resource by the Earth2 team
• Resource should Physically exist on Earth in the same location as your tile
• Relevant documentation of physical existence of resource

A recent update from Earth2 points to giving more importance to other users staking Essence on your claim, rather than if the resource is present in the real world or not. Read the end of this article for more details.

How to Submit a claim:

1. Click on ‘Resource claims’

2. Select ‘Your Claims’

3. Click on ‘Create A Claim’

4. Select the Resource and your property which you want to raise the claim for:

5. Add supporting documents and Links to websites: (Supporting articles can be website listing that the place/area has resources, PDFs, land survey documents, etc) — very important for raising a successful claim.

6. Write a good summary of your claim. (This will be publically viewable).

7. Click Submit a claim and you will be shown a popup. Click submit and you are done submitting the claim.

8. The claim will be visible on the property. $4.95 will be reduced from your account balance.

9. If you wish to stake essence, do so immediately once the claim is submitted (By going into the property. If you do so, Essence will also get reduced from your total Essence available in the account.

Can I raise resource claims on another user's land?

Though you can't raise a claim on another user's Earth2 land, you can add credibility to another user's claim by staking some Essence. The biggest advantage is that you can receive some additional essence once the resource is validated successfully.

How to support another user's resource claim?

1. Login to Earth2 and navigate to ‘Resource Claims’
2. Check ‘All Claims’tab, and you can see claims submitted by all users.

3. Click on the ‘Insight’ icon next to a claim(Last column)to see more details about it.

4. Click on Stake essence and you would be able to select the quantity of Essence. The maximum quantity a user can stake is 1/10 of the Total Stackable Essence mentioned for the property.

5. Once you stake the essence, the quantity would get reduced from your total essence:

Reporting a claim:

Players will be able to report a claim if there is explicit or offensive content as part of the claim.

When will I know the results of the Earth2 resource claim?:

Based on the information available, the claims will be validated based on the priority of the claim (which is in turn linked to other users supporting the claim). There will be a 1 week buffer time allocated when the Resource validation system goes live, this is to ensure that any properties near the claimed property can also submit a claim. (A claim might result in properties in the near vicinity also getting validated, so Earth2 is giving more time for users to submit claims on individual property and thereby giving the ability to earn essence)

When is the Earth2 Player Resource Validation system going live?

The resource validation system went live on July 15, 2022.

A new update in the Earth2 website, given below gives more importance to players backing the claim and the community, which makes us wonder if enough people support the claim, and will get it approved (irrespective of the presence of resources in the real world!)? We don’t know for sure.

But Earth2 CEO, Shane Isaac has confirmed otherwise, suggesting anyone supporting a bad claim may lose the Essence. So make sure you stake after validating the supporting documents properly.

New Tier3 Jewel combinations are available now in Earth2

In a very exciting move Earth2, the metaverse released a set of new Tier 3 jewel recipes to production. The new jewels were released on the beta website on 01/17/22 and were released to production on 01/20/22. Based on various experiments done in that environment, below are the jewel recipes for creating Tier 3 jewels.

How to create Tier 3 jewels of base color?

Tier 3 jewels can be created from Base jewels by combining 3 Tier 2 jewels of the same color. (So a total of 9 base jewels are needed to create a Tier 3 Jewel)

Steps to create a Tier 3 jewel from base jewels:

1. Three Tier 1 jewels can be combined to form a Tier 2 jewel

2. Three Tier 2 jewels can be combined to form a Tier 3 jewel of the same color.

The example shown below shows how a Tier 3 Blue jewel can be created.

All these jewels can be used as-is for slotting or can be combined with level 3 jewels of other colors to produce new jewels.

New jewels

There are 28 new combinations that can be created by combining Tier 3 jewels of different colors. Below are the new jewel colors released in Earth2.

Amber, Andalusite, Aquamarine, Azurite, Bloodstone, Catseye, Chrysocolla, Emerald, Garnet, Jade, Malachite, Obsidian, Opal, Prehnite, Peridot, Pyrite, Ruby, Serpentine, Slate, Sodalite, Spinel, Sunstone, Tigereye, Topaz, Turquoise, Titanite, Tanzanite, and Zircon

All jewels increase the production of certain resources by 2% and can be used to increase the essence transformation rate of property by 3%.

Below are new jewels arranged in alphabetical order.

What is Essence and how to collect them

Essence is the future cryptocurrency of Earth2 and it’s already available for collection/mining inside the Earth2 metaverse. As a part of Earth2’s early adopter rewards, Earth2 made an Essence Distribution Commitment (EDC) with any user who bought a virtual plot of land in Earth2, guaranteeing them a minimum essence from each of their properties. This reward is applicable only for Tier1 land bought from Earth2 before 3rd December 2021.

20% of the total promised essence was delivered to all users in December 2021, which was more like an airdrop of cryptocurrency.

The rest of the Essence is to be collected from Earth2 by logging in every day.

If you purchase any T1 land from the marketplace with some essence left in the property, you will be able to collect the remaining essence from the land. Whatever was collected earlier remains with the seller.

How to know if you have any minimum essence promised.

There are three places where the essence promised is listed inside Earth2:

1. Main menu
2. Profile Page
3. On each property inside the profile page

The entry in the menu shows the total of minimum essence promised you to have to collect from all your properties.

T1 is the value of essence you can still collect. E value displays the total essence you already collected. The same values are displayed under your profile also.

When you select a T1 property, you can see two numbers associated with it, Net essence is the essence you already collected, and awaiting claim value gives the value of guaranteed essence available for collection in the future.

Here you can see that for this particular property, the essence already collected is just 1 and there is 40 essence yet to be collected.

How Earth2 determined the essence promised value:

The essence promised value depends on the country your property is part of. Before December the T1 land price in the US was the highest. So any tiles from the US have the maximum essence promised per tile which is around 52 essence/tile. The next was South Korea with 32 essence/tile and so on.

T2 property doesn't have essence promised, but according to data available in earth2 website, it might still produce essence at random

How to collect the essence promised

You can collect essence by logging in daily to your profile. For collecting essence from a property, mentors should be present in your property. You don’t have to purchase mentors if you are ready to wait a couple of days.

The below article explains mentars in detail.

Mentars, Explained

Try to collect the Ether/Essence daily. As communicated by Earth2 dev, the Ether will be lost if not collected within two days.

Procedure to collect essence from Earth2 (If you own T1 Land):

1. Login to the Earth2 website.
2. Navigate to your profile. If mentars have detected any Ether, the below popup will be shown in your profile.

3. Once you click on the claim button, another popup will appear asking you to transform the Ether to Essence.

4. Click on transform and Ether will convert to Essence.

5. Navigate to transaction history and select currency as Essence and you can see how much essence was collected.

The conversation rate of essence depends on how much essence promised is left in your properties and a bit of randomness.

How to speed up the collection of essence promised

You can speed up the collection of the essence by adding a +2 jewel to your property which still has large quantities of essence promised in it. Essence will generate much faster from those properties.

To know how to Craft +2 Jewels, read the below article.

What happens when the essence promised becomes 0?

The property will continue to produce Essence even after the Essence promised in it becomes 0. But the rate of production will be very low and will be pretty random.

We have seen many of our properties producing Essence even after the awaiting claim value became 0.

Shane, the CEO of Earth2 also tweeted on the same recently.

Will I be able to get the essence from Tier2 land?

Tier2 land is also supposed to produce some essence. This is clearly mentioned on the Earth2 website. But the frequency or the quantity of essence produced can only be known once the Earth2 white paper is released sometime in the first quarter of 2022.

Earth2: Essence Promised — Explained was originally published in Planet Earth2 on Medium, where people are continuing the conversation by highlighting and responding to this story.

Earth2, the upcoming metaverse platform which created a digital twin of the real earth, has announced the acquisition of a PVP game titled ‘Drone the Game’. The drone game is a 3D combat game where players can custom build their drones/vehicles and use them in PVP environments.

The acquisition will enable earth2 to integrate the core components of the Drone game including Arena and vehicle editors into earth2’s unity-driven metaverse platform.

“The ultimate goal of this acquisition is direct ownership of innovative world building and gameplay technologies to extend Earth 2’s Metaverse platform. It illustrates our ongoing commitment to invest in our development team, and to acquire technical expertise relevant to delivering Earth 2’s experience to millions of people across the globe,” said Shane Isaac, founder of Earth 2.

Benefits for Earth2 by acquiring Drone game

• Integrate various advanced rendering and texturing systems used by Drone into earth2 terrain. This would give a very different experience than the cartoonish behavior we see in other metaverses.
• Upgrade its builder and open it for users to edit the terrain on the tiles, create structure, etc.
• Launch it as the first 3D PVP game inside the Earth2 metaverse reducing the time it needs to develop the game
• Utilize the AI pathfinding system used by Drone
• Onboard Drone’s core engineering and creative team to Earth2 Dev team.
• Integrate various phase 2/3 features inside Earth2 like jewels, resources, and essence into the Drone gameplay making it a win-win for both the Drone community and the Earth2 community.

“User Generated Content and utilizing our community’s creativity is a priority for Earth 2 as we continue to leverage blockchain technology to move our platform to Web 3 in partnership with Polygon Studios.” said Shane Isaac, founder of Earth 2.

Drone game

Drone game was developed by Five studios interactive, a gaming company started by 6 Game developers. The build of this game started in March 2018 as a crowdfunded project. This game was available for purchase as early access. Later once the Earth2 project started, 2 of the developers (Nathaniel and Ferran) started working on Earth2 Terrian and the project had halted for some time.

In the original game, drones could be constructed by players by attaching together various blocks, weapons, and defense systems. Players were also able to construct stunning-looking arenas in various environments. Players were also able to tweak the weather, time of day, gravity, and even meteorite showers.

The drone is a fun arena shooter game where plays can control drones and indulge in PVP destroying other drones. Players were also able to form alliances and clans which made it a social experience.

DRONE The Game on Steam

The future plans

The drone game would be customized for Earth2 and it would be available for free inside Earth2 metaverse. The game is expected to be available for play in early-mid 2022.

The real advantage for Earth2 (by this acquisition) is the ability to integrate the arena and vehicle builders into Earth2. Earth2 is also expected to release the white paper of the Earth2 coin shortly in Jan-Feb as confirmed by Shane, the CEO of Earth2. Earth2 also has plans to decentralize shortly which would make Earth2 a huge competitor to all the metaverse out there.

How are tiles classified as Tier 1 and Tier 2?

Any tiles which were originally bought from Earth2/market in the first year (before December 3, 2021) are marked as a Tier 1 tile. These tiles will retain the Tier1 classification, even if the tile is resold in the market multiple times in the future.

Any tiles directly bought from Earth2 after December 3rd, 2021 will be marked as Tier 2 tiles. These tiles can be converted into Tier 1 in the future but there will be a cost associated with it (most probably by spending essence).

What is the difference between class and tier of a tile?

Tier-based classification is different from the class of a tile. Only Tier1 tiles have a class associated with them.

The class of land you own is determined by the number of tiles already sold in a particular country when the tile was purchased. Users who purchased tiles early (first 100000 tiles) in a country were rewarded Class 1 tiles and they are rare and have more value. Later purchases were classified as class 2 and class 3. Tier 2 lands that were purchased after December 3rd, 2021 have no class associated with them.

What is the difference between Tier 1 and Tier 2 tiles in Earth2?

The official list given on the website is as below.

The main reason for introducing tier 2 was to provide affordable tiles to new players and to ensure that anyone who bought land within the first year of Earth2 can get some guaranteed Essence(Essence is supposed to be a crypto coin shortly).

The biggest advantages of buying a tier 1 tile are as below:

1. You get a guaranteed essence generated from the T1 land (or Essence promised). The essence promised on a property is dependent on the country in which your tile is located and the number of tiles that constitutes the property)
2. You get a LIT or periodic bonus depending on the number of new tiles sold in the country (depends on the class of tile you have and the number of tiles).
3. Jewels spawning (generation of jewels from land) and jewel slotting (to increase the resource production) will be available for Tier1 tiles
4. Tier 1 land will have future utilities like no caps for buildings, ability to take part in governance, discoverable resources, ability to show ads on the property, etc.

Buying Tier 1 tiles has its advantages. The only way to buy a Tier1 property is via marketplace from other users. (Market is frozen till December 14th).

Advantages of buying Tier2 land in Earth2:

Now looking at tier 2 land, the biggest advantage is that it is currently very cheap. When Tier2 was released all land was reset, meaning that tile in every country started at 10 cents a tile. Users were able to buy tier 2 land at 10 cents in the US, whereas a new Tier 1 tile was costing around 60 dollars before. (You can use code A9Y07PN9GR for an additional 5% to 7.5% discount)

Though not guaranteed, Tier2 land would be generating Ether at random, which can be converted into essence.

Tier 2 land will also be generating resources (a future functionality), but would only generate less compared to Tier 1 land.

You would be able to convert a cheap Tier2 land to Tier1 at a later point. details on how it can be done are still not available.

Why should I buy Tier 2 land in Earth2?

1. To procure cheap land for building/gaming functionalities available in future
2. To secure some additional essence/resources from land
3. Buying some land in megacities
4. Buying land tiles in smaller countries. (which might become rare in the future)
5. For reselling purposes.
6. Buying out places you love for a cheap price.

How to identify if land in the market is Tier1 or Tier2:

The Tier of the property will be listed as the second column in the marketplace. Don’t rely on the name field since many scammers will try to change the name to trick you into buying the property.

Check the essence promised field also to ensure that you are getting a good deal buying a tier1 land. Tier 2 land will always have essence promised as 0.

Always confirm the Tier by opening the property and checking the value on the right-hand side. Also, check the class of tile if the tile is of Tier 1. Class 1 is more valuable than class 2 and so on.
