Community Store

The **community store** is an in-game store, which supplements the primary in-game store with some exclusive content. Unlike the main store, where items are purchased with gold, gems or money, community store items are purchased with influence (), a game currency earned by watching or creating streamed *Eternal* content through the game's Twitch drops program.

The community store is currently only available in-game on the PC and Mac platforms, accessed through the main store screen's tab (which displays your total influence). A limited selection of community store items are also purchasable through the DWD store on DWD's website, for players who don't have access to the community store on their platform. Unlike regular store items sold in the DWD store, buying community store items there does not give any bonus content.

## Community Store Items

### Random Set Pack

A random pack, from any expansion set excluding the most recent one, can be bought for 5,000.

### Cosmetics

The community store includes a few cosmetic items, such as cardbacks, avatars, and totems.

While there have been limited-time cosmetics exclusive to the community store, such as the "Xenan Obelisk" cardback, this section usually has cosmetics which are available in the main store for gems, or bring back cardbacks which were previously exclusive to older Leagues.

The contents of the Cosmetics sections rotates over time.

### Emotes

The community store includes several exclusive emotes packs, which unlock 6 unique emotes cost 10,000 each. These emotes may be mixed-and-matched with others as usual, and are marked in the Personalize screen's emote selection dropdowns by an influence icon.

The *Curious Emotes* and *Furious Emotes* were available at the community store's launch.

The *Community Emotes* bundle contains community-created emotes, gathered from player submissions.

## History

The community store was first mentioned in August 2018, with the announcement of the Twitch drops program's expansion to include the influence currency and interactive chests. While influence was earn-able soon after, the store itself took longer to open than originally intended. The delay was explained and some initial items were revealed in January 2019, along with details to changes in the drops system.

The store launched for PC and Mac in February 2019. It initially included the Stockpile Bundle, the Curious and Furious Emotes packs, the exclusive "Xenan Obelisk" cardback and several returned cosmetics, and the *Design a...* programs.

The store also included "Drops Campaigns", items for streamers to buy which would boost the Twitch drops rewards received by their viewers for a limited time. Campaigns were available in different tiers, and could reward cards, premium cards, Draft tickets, and packs. Due to unintended negative effects of the system, where streamers would one-up each other with higher tier campaigns to try and draw viewers from others, the campaigns program was removed that April.

The *Community Emotes* bundle was released in April, after emotes were gathered from player submissions to *Eternal's* subreddit in February 2019.

With the *Trials of Grodov* release update in July 2019, the exclusive "Steel Tempest" cardback was added to the store and the "Xenan Obelisk" cardback was removed.

In December 2019 16-pack bundles and Draft ticket were added to the store. The "Steel Tempest" cardback was removed.
