Allocate and Print

In NBM, each NFT acts as a sealed artifact that can be either given to the clone or used to create replicas of it. Those NFTs can be placed into the Molecular Printer, a module available in the shuttle which is responsible for materializing them in game.

Where and how ?

1) In order to use this module, go ahead the "workshop" section then select the "use printer" sub category.

Access the Molecular Printer from the Workshop menu.

2) Within this module, you will find all the compatible NFTs available to be imported. By default the Molecular Printer offers 2 import ways : Print a copy and Allocate to clone. By clicking on each items, you will quickly figure out which option(s) is available :

Laser Sniper Print a copy and Allocate to clone options from the Molecular Printer.

3) As you go, you will see that you can't print or allocate any rarity of a replica by default. You will have to upgrade your Molecular Printer to unlock them all progressively. In order to know what to do, click on the locked item and check the unlock requirement on the right panel.

Now it's time for you to understand how those two NFT materialization features work and what are their differences. Depending of your gameplay, you might want to play without it or boost your progression by using them both or one over the other.

No NFT use

This approach is the cheapest and the most common. Players need to find a particular set of items/materials and must pay in resources to produce the desired piece of equipment.

PROS:

• No NFT needed.

CONS:

• Time-Consuming: This approach requires collecting all the required ingredients/materials to craft the desired item. Obtaining all the components typically takes a lot of time.

• Slows Down Progression: Some materials can only be found in particular caves, which means that the clone will have to make do with suboptimal items until the proper location is reached.

• Extra Weapons: Can't craft Stelars and off-set content (compare to Allocated and Printed equipment).

• Quantum Lock: Can't lock quantum on equipment (compare to Allocated and Printed equipment).

• Max Durability: Can't be replenished (compare to Allocated equipment).

• Additional Quantum Slots: Can't add more than 1-3 quantum on each equipment (compare to Allocated equipment).

Allocate to clone

This approach is the fastest and the most efficient. In that case, click on the 'Allocate to clone' option and select your corresponding NFT from your wallet. The printer will instantaneously create replica of this NFT.

During this process, there is 2 important things to notice :

• First, the NFT is destroyed during the creating process. But be reassured, there is a way to mint your NFT back (read further down).

• Second, you can use an epic NFT to print an epic replica, but you can also use and higher rarity NFT to print lower rarity replica. In that case, your replica will get a max durability boost (see details in the capture above) which will make your replica lasting longer during your explorations.

Full repair

As you probably know, repairing any piece of equipment decrease its max durability. Max durability cannot be restored except for the allocated items. It is specifically what this option does.

To replenish an item max durability, select the allocated item, click on the 'Full Repair' icon twice.

Thus, this process performed by Junker will increase the fail chance by 2% / repair and cost Actium :

Rarity	Price / Repair (Actium)
Common	1000
Rare	2500
Epic	5000
Legendary	10000
Ultimate	25000

Mint your NFT back

It is also possible to ask Junker to destroy the item to craft back the NFT. To do so, players can use the Mint NFT function located on the left menu of the item :

To mint an NFT back, select the allocated item, click on the 'NFT' icon twice.

To mint back any allocated item, you need first to Full Repair it !

This process is immediate and cost Minium :

Rarity	Price / Repair (Minium)
Common	2500
Rare	5000
Epic	10000
Legendary	20000
Ultimate	50000

Mint Back fail chance and output

It is important to know that crafting back an NFT is a complex process that can fail. The probability of failure increases by 2% for every time that Junker replenished the item maximum durability.

For instance, if an allocated item was fixed 3 times by Junker, the probability of failure while minting back your NFT is equal to 6%. See bellow the 2 possible output scenarios :

• Junker fails crafting back the NFT, you get one rarity below (e.g., if a player allocated an Epic NFT, they will receive back a Rare NFT).

• Junker succeeds, you gets back the same NFT you initially allocated.

However, when minting back an NFT, players can use energy (depending on equipment rarity: 1/2/4/8/16) to guarantee the outcome. If energy is used, the minting cannot fail. Refill the Energy Core if you don't have enough energy.

Allocating NFTs is made possible by the Molecular Printer module. Common Molecular printer only grant you the right to allocate common. Upgrade your Molecular Printer to allocate higher rarity NFTs.

PROS:

• Instantaneous: The object is directly transferred to the clone with no delays.

• Extra Weapons: Offers to Import weapons that can't be find in game.

• Maximal Durability: Have 50% more durability than printed or crafted gear (1.5x multiplier).

• Repairs possible: Possibility to replenish the maximal durability.

• Quantum Lock: Players can lock one of the stats on printed gear using energy (based on equipment rarity: 1/2/4/8/16).

• Additional Quantum Slots: Have more QT slots: +1 for Common/Rare/Epic, or +2 for Legendary and Ultimate.

CONS:

• Temporary Destruction : Temporarily destroys the NFT during the allocation process.

• Molecular Printer Upgrade : Requires upgrading the molecular printer to allocate high-quality items.

• Mint back risks : Risks of receiving a lower rarity NFT during the replication process. Common NFTs failing the replication get destroyed (the use of energy 100% secure the process).

• RISK OF LOSING THE NFT IN PVP : If an allocated item is stored in the backpack and the player loses a PvP battle, the item can be stolen and the player won't be able to mint back its NFT.

Print a Copy

This approach is a variant of the Allocate to clone method where the NFT does not get destroyed, but it takes time, and the quality of the replicas is lower compared to the original one.

Using higher rarity NFTs to print lower rarity replicas will reduce the printing time depending on the level and rarity difference (see the formula in the above capture).

Find below the associated printing time and cost in Actium per rarity :

Rarity	Price (Actium)	Time standard (hours)	Time stelar (hours)
Common	500	2	2
Rare	1000	3	4.5
Epic	2000	4	7
Legendary	5000	7.5	9.5
Ultimate	10000	11	12

PROS:

• Saves the NFT: The original NFT is not destroyed during the replication process.

• Extra Weapons: Offers to Import weapons that can't be find in game.

• Fuel Ressources: Imported Pilot/Scout/Ranger gears can be dismantle for ressources.

• Quantum Lock: Players can lock one of the stats on printed gear using energy (based on equipment rarity: 1/2/4/8/16).

CONS:

• Time-Consuming: Replication process can be lengthy.

• Lower give back: Yield 50% fewer materials when dismantled.

• Molecular Printer Upgrade: Requires upgrading the molecular printer to allocate high-quality items.

• Max Durability Limitation: Can't be replenished (compare to Allocated equipment).

• Additional Quantum Slots: Can't add more than 1-3 quantum on each equipment (compare to Allocated equipment).
