## Tutorial

### Relic Chains and Relic Fog

The land of Arcadia is hidden behind 65 ascending levels of Arcane Fog. The Arcane Fog can be cleared by activating Arcane Orbs earned as byproducts from merging up Relic Chains which consist of 5 levels of unique Arcane riches contained within Arcane Chests. Arcane Chests are available for purchases within the Arcadia Shop and may also be earned as Event or Seasons rewards, or created within Arcadia by other mysterious means. The higher the level of Arcane Fog, the more Arcane Power needed to lift it. However, the odd-numbered Arcane Fog gates hide a special Relic Fog, which can only be cleared by first discovering the final Level 5 Relic created by merging up those Arcadia riches. The Relic presents as a harvestable 2x2 shrine or tribute dedicated to 1 of 33 unique Trophy Dragon breeds. Each new Relic Fog uncovered unlocks a brand new chain of Arcadia riches within the Arcane Chests, thus increasing the diversity of an Arcane Chest's possible contents.

The unique chains for Arcadia riches are divided into three scarcity types: Common, Rare, and Legendary. The Trophy Dragons associated with Common and Rare chains are occasionally available as out-of-Camp Event Rewards, while most Legendary types are on offer as Seasons Exclusive Dragons. Once players first discover a given Level 5 Relic, the Relic Fog may be cleared and some exclusive Arcane Dragons will be sent to Camp. Lift the Relic Fog to reveal a Relic Guardian Portal alongside a few additional rewards, such as Arcane Chests, Dragon Gems, and/or Giant Dragon Gems.

Note: In previous versions, the Arcane Dragons rewards are more generous - up to level 7 and 8 Secret Dragons, however, in recent update [], the rewards have been reduced.

To further progress within Arcadia, players are encouraged to fill out their Dragon Book, max out the Season and Event Portals in Camp, and complete each limited-time activity when offered.

#### Common Relics

Level 5 Common Relics can be harvested for one Level 2 Small Arcane Chest and then be destroyed for four Level 3 Great Arcane Orbs.

There are 11 Common Relics, including:

#### Rare Relics

Level 5 Rare Relics can be harvested for one Level 3 Silver Arcane Chest and then be destroyed for four Level 3 Great Arcane Orbs.

There are 14 Rare Relics, including:

#### Legendary Relics

Level 5 Legendary Relics can be harvested for one Level 4 Gold Arcane Chest along with four Level 3 Great Arcane Orbs.

There are 8 Legendary Relics, including:

### Arcane Orbs

As said above, each Relic is divided into 5 levels. When you merge any objects of the Relic chain (level under 5), they also create Arcane Orbs as a by-product. The level and the amount of Orbs created depend on the rarity type and the level of the objects. The table below shows the information about all the Arcane Orbs:

The table below shows the amount of Arcane Orbs created with a 3-merge\*:

**\*** 5-merges count as two 3-merges, and double the Orbs that are created.

### Arcane Level and Arcane Power

The land of Arcadia is covered by Arcane Fog, which is separated into 65 areas unlocked by increasing your Arcane Level. Each Level requires a certain amount of Arcane Power. To upgrade your Level, you have to collect the Arcane Orbs. The higher the Orb's level - the more Arcane Power it provides.

The table below shows the amount of Arcane Power you need to reach each Arcane Level, power is not cumulative:

**\*** Most of this table has not included any Arcane Chain items added in the new update. Rewrite attempts are underway.

### Arcane Chains and Guardian Portals

Since the update [], if players have discovered the Dragon breed associated with the Relic Guardian Portal, a clone of the highest level Dragon can be summoned to Arcadia to unlock a bounty of Arcadia Chests as a reward, the higher the level (excluding eggs), the bigger the rewards (as shown in the table and image below). The clone can now harvest all of their level 5 Relics once for one level 2 - 4 Arcane Chest. Once the level 5 Relics are harvested, they turn into a colorless and immovable state with a hit point of 100, in which they can be destroyed by the clone for four level 3 Great Arcane Orbs (does not require stamina).

Further updates introduce Dragon Stamina and Arcane Chains, which include three new chains, those are Arcane Trees, Arcane Fountains and Arcane Towers.

#### Guardian Portals and Dragon Stamina

Each Guardian Portal is now assisted by a level scale with a minimum of 1 and a maximum of 8, the higher the level of the summoned clone, the higher the level of the portal. Each level also has a unique design.

A clone dragon is summoned with a certain amount of stamina provided by the portal, ranging from 1 (for all Tier 1 dragons) to 5 (differs for every level of Tier 2 dragons). This stamina can be used to harvest level 5 Relics or level 5 and up Arcane Chains. The amount of stamina for each level of portal is shown in the table below:

 8

Once the stamina of a clone runs out, it will return to its associated Guardian Portal to go to sleep for 5 days (does not differ according to level) before waking back up. You can wake up your dragons whenever you want during this period of sleeping by spending a minimum of 50 Dragon Gems or a maximum of 250 Dragon Gems (according to the level of the clone).

#### Arcane Chains

Since the update [], there have been three new chains in Arcadia, including Arcane Trees, Arcane Fountains and Arcane Towers. Each chain is divided into 13 levels. There are 3 level 1 items of each chain scattered throughout the map at different Arcane Levels (Arcane Tree at level 10, Arcane Fountain at level 25 and Arcane Tower at level 40). Once found, players can start finding more by many means including lifting more Evil Fogs, merging associated Relic Types (Common Relics for Arcane Trees, Rare Relics for Arcane Fountains and Legendary Relics for Arcane Towers), which the chain's items can be founded as by-product instead of Arcane Orbs and destroying level 5 Relics for the associated level of the dragons (up to level 10).

Every item in all chains from level 5 and up can be harvested for Common Relics items, which consumes stamina. Once a level 13 item is created, a clone can harvest it once for one Legendary Arcane Chest before it turns into the same colorless and immovable state similar to the level 5 Relics after being harvested but with a hit point of 2500 and can also be destroyed by any clone dragon types and breeds for some lower level items including 2 level 11, 3 level 10, 3 level 9 and 4 level 8.

Players can receive a certain number of dragons from the three new Arcane Dragon Breeds (including Arcadia Tree Dragons, Arcadia Fountain Dragons and Arcadia Tower Dragons) once for discovering a new level item in the associated chain. Except for the level 13 items, which can be claimed multiple times and are shown in the Arcane Chains book. The table below shows the number of dragons that players can receive from each level:

Below are details about each chain.
