# Realms

Realms are the most powerful lands in NBM. They function as land cards but correspond to physical plots of land located in Arcadia.

Additionally, Realms offer several unique benefits. Among these:

* **Superior RESM Values:** Most Realms can reach up to 20 RESM, while traditional lands typically don’t exceed 15.
* **Superior NFTM Values:** While Realms offer slightly better RESM, they are primarily designed to enhance NFT mining.
* **Multi-Round Mining:** Unlike traditional lands, which are capped at 100% NFTM, Realms can mine multiple items per hour. For example, a Realm with 250% NFTM will automatically mine 2 NFT rewards and has a 50% chance of receiving a third NFT reward.
* **Item rewards scale with Realm rarity:** higher rarity Realms drop more items per successful NFTM round. For instance, common Realms drop 1 consumable, while Ultimate Realms drop 5 consumables in a single round.
* **GEN2 Consumables:** Players using NFTM on Realms will gain access to exclusive rewards including Smoke Bomb (grants a 30% evasion boost and a +1% increase to evasion cap), Large Medikit (Heals 40% of the clone’s max HP after a battle), Resource Mapper (Reduces the chance of finding materials in the cave by 10%, but increases the chance of finding tokens by 10%), XP Booster (Increases XP earned by 30% after killing an enemy).

* **Unique NFTM rewards:** As players create more Realms, our team will introduce a rotation of rewards, including unique NFTs, in-game weapons (such as Punisher, Pacifier, Sub-0, Protektor, etc.), powerful consumables, and much more!
* **Access to a Unique NFT Reward Pool**: Our team will distribute NFT rewards (Packs, Weapons, Unique Actives, and more) exclusively to Realm owners contributing to Realm pools. To determine pool share, the logic will rely on a point system, where each Realm grants a given amount of points based on its rarity:

| Rarity             | Points |
| ------------------ | ------ |
| Common             | 1      |
| Rare               | 5      |
| Epic               | 25     |
| Legendary          | 125    |
| Ultimate Level 1-4 | 625    |
| Ultimate Level 5   | 650    |

* **Ownership of Arcadian Planets**: In a future update, players will be able to place their Realms within Arcadia and claim ownership of parts of various planets. This will be a pivotal step in the evolution of NBM, fostering the creation of alliances and empires that will rule Arcadia!
* **Usability of Realms in Shadow Depths:** Ultimate 5 Realms will be integrated into Shadow Depths, enabling owners to open their Realm for clones to explore. Owners will be able to claim a portion of the tokens and items mined by others. While still under development, this feature promises to unify Mining and Shadow Depths seamlessly while expanding the worlds available in Shadow Depths.
* **Support for the Next Generation of Constructions:** Our team is developing a new generation of constructions designed to make mining more accessible and appealing to new players. To ensure a smooth transition, we will provide a way for players to convert their current constructions into the new ones, which will feature unique effects in Shadow Depths.
* **NFTM Rewards Rebalanced:** Our team has utilized Realms to rebalance the distribution of rewards when using NFTM. Realms will now be able to drop up to 20 Alchemy materials at once, with the materials being a mix of those from the two original lands used to create the Realm. For more details, see the table in the annex at the end of this article.

Realms can be created by fusing 2 predetermined U5 lands with 3 unique Active cards (Ultimate 5) and by purchasing a Colonization module directly from the NBM Shop. For more information, consult the table below.

Once created, a Realm can be leveled up using tokens. To increase the rarity of a Realm, it must be fused with an Ultimate 5 land. For more information regarding upgrade costs in tokens, consult the following table:

<table><thead><tr><th width="214"></th><th>Rarity</th><th width="214">Cost (4 tokens required)</th><th>Land</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td></td><td>C1</td><td></td><td></td></tr><tr><td></td><td>C2</td><td>120000</td><td></td></tr><tr><td></td><td>C3</td><td>180000</td><td></td></tr><tr><td></td><td>C4</td><td>240000</td><td></td></tr><tr><td></td><td>C5</td><td>300000</td><td></td></tr><tr><td>FUSION COST (FUS)</td><td></td><td>378000</td><td>Any Land U5</td></tr><tr><td></td><td>R1</td><td></td><td></td></tr><tr><td></td><td>R2</td><td>240000</td><td></td></tr><tr><td></td><td>R3</td><td>360000</td><td></td></tr><tr><td></td><td>R4</td><td>480000</td><td></td></tr><tr><td></td><td>R5</td><td>600000</td><td></td></tr><tr><td>FUSION COST (FUS)</td><td></td><td>567000</td><td>Any Land U5</td></tr><tr><td></td><td>E1</td><td></td><td></td></tr><tr><td></td><td>E2</td><td>360000</td><td></td></tr><tr><td></td><td>E3</td><td>540000</td><td></td></tr><tr><td></td><td>E4</td><td>720000</td><td></td></tr><tr><td></td><td>E5</td><td>900000</td><td></td></tr><tr><td>FUSION COST (FUS)</td><td></td><td>756000</td><td>Any Land U5</td></tr><tr><td></td><td>L1</td><td></td><td></td></tr><tr><td></td><td>L3</td><td>480000</td><td></td></tr><tr><td></td><td>L3</td><td>720000</td><td></td></tr><tr><td></td><td>L4</td><td>960000</td><td></td></tr><tr><td></td><td>L5</td><td>1200000</td><td></td></tr><tr><td>FUSION COST (FUS)</td><td></td><td>945000</td><td>Any Land U5</td></tr><tr><td></td><td>U1</td><td></td><td></td></tr><tr><td></td><td>U2</td><td>600000</td><td></td></tr><tr><td></td><td>U3</td><td>900000</td><td></td></tr><tr><td></td><td>U4</td><td>1200000</td><td></td></tr><tr><td></td><td>U5</td><td>1500000</td><td></td></tr></tbody></table>

Therefore, creating a Realm Ultimate 5 requires 6 Ultimate 5 lands (2 for the creation of the Realm and 4 for the upgrade), 1 Colonization module, and 12.6M units of Actium, Minium, and Constructium, along with 15.2M units of Fusium (extra Fusium for the fusions).

Finally,  when creating a Realm using the Colonization Tool, lands, and miners, players also have the opportunity to claim ownership of **Astra Nova**, the powerful star at the center of the Arcadian system. Players have a 3% chance of receiving the **Astra Nova Havens** Realm in addition to the expected Realm. Astra Nova Havens is by far the most powerful realm, offering players future control over Astra Nova, in addition to superior mining values.

Overall, Realms are expensive but incredibly powerful assets that offer unique perks to their owners. Currently, our team is discussing the introduction of an NBM token, which would be listed on major exchanges and available through Realm NFT Mining, making Realms the ultimate asset to own.
