Badge benefits and NFTs
Service badges and collectible NFTs
Badge bonuses are approved designs. Their in-game activation depends on their action handlers being deployed and tested. Owning or trading the NFT does not grant or transfer a gameplay benefit. Only up to three eligible badge benefits can be equipped, one per family, with a 24-hour switching cooldown when enabled. Higher tiers replace rather than stack with lower tiers.
Commissioned (Command rank): Increase maximum stored turns from 200 to 210. Unlock: character level >= 1. Turn regeneration still follows the normal schedule.
Senior Officer (Command rank): Increase maximum stored turns to 225. Unlock: character level >= 5. Replaces the Commissioned turn-cap increase.
High Command (Command rank): Increase maximum stored turns to 250. Unlock: character level >= 10. Replaces lower command-rank bonuses.
First Claim (Territorial influence): 2% less repair material cost for ships in owned systems. Unlock: currently owned systems >= 1. Requires ownership and a working authorized ship-repair action.
Sector Steward (Territorial influence): 4% less repair material cost for ships in owned systems. Unlock: currently owned systems >= 3. Replaces First Claim's 2% reduction.
Galactic Reach (Territorial influence): 6% less repair material cost for ships in owned systems. Unlock: currently owned systems >= 10. Replaces lower territorial reductions.
First Insight (Research reserves): 1% less eligible research or magic-point cost. Unlock: current RP/MP reserve >= 25. Class-specific RP/MP accounting applies.
Research Division (Research reserves): 2% less eligible research or magic-point cost. Unlock: current RP/MP reserve >= 250. Replaces First Insight's 1%.
Knowledge Archive (Research reserves): 3% less eligible research or magic-point cost. Unlock: current RP/MP reserve >= 1000. Replaces lower research reserve discounts.
Secure Reserve (Credit reserves): 1% less building credit cost, up to 100 credits saved per UTC day. Unlock: current credits >= 10000. No benefit for TETRAC transfers or deposits.
Deep Treasury (Credit reserves): 2% less building credit cost, up to 250 credits saved per UTC day. Unlock: current credits >= 50000. Replaces the Secure Reserve tier, not cumulative.
Grand Treasury (Credit reserves): 3% less building credit cost, up to 500 credits saved per UTC day. Unlock: current credits >= 250000. Replaces all lower treasury tiers; never mints TETRAC.
NFT issuance: The Load missing badge NFTs action creates deduplicated issuance requests for eligible badges after a wallet has been securely linked. A queued request is not a minted NFT. A token becomes minted only after its Polygon transaction is independently confirmed. Previously issued badges are never minted twice just because they were sold or transferred.
