## How to play ArchLoot

From the get-go, your character is sent into an open world to explore, raid, battle, and upgrade to level up. As you do this, you would be immersed in the game's wonderful graphics that adds to the gameplay experience.

### Define Thyself in ALTvers

The first step is to define your identity by choosing and customizing your avatar. There are two default avatars for you to choose from

**1. Dummy-Ranged**, a lovely baby dragon specialized in attacking ranged creatures with splashing damage.

**2. Conchy-Melee**, an insect-like creative who loves to live in caves and shadows with good close-range melee combat skills.

Your playable avatar in the game is a monster that comes in loot-style NFT parts. Your avatar monster in ArchLoot comprises five main parts, namely the torso, head, upper limb, lower limb, and accessory. Using these five parts, you can construct your monster in any way you want. Depending on the rarity of these body parts, they are further divided into four rarity categories, namely Common, Rare, Epic, Legendary.

Each body part may result in different characteristics and sizes that you can change as you wish. When attached to your monster's torso, some parts can introduce special skills in addition to their basic characteristics. For example, if you place a Gopher's legs on a Cat head torso, it will give your monster extra health and increase its defense attribute to +126. Each monster has an endless number of skills, but only three can be used during battles.

### Taking on the Environment in ALTvers
In the game's PvE mode, you will be exploring and battling against different creatures to obtain resources from the environment using the PvE mode. This mode is the foundation of ArchLoot, where winning allows you to reap the rewards in the form of looting treasures, gaining experience points, crafting materials, and body parts NFTs.  

An essential way to get rewards in abundance is through dungeon raids. There are 8 dungeons (Wet Plains, Fission Mountains, Ice Fields, Scorching Valley, Desert Ruins, Otherworld Portal, Mechanical Age and Ancient Tombs). These dungeons vary in terms of their climate conditions, species, plants, and geographical landscapes. You will have to collect a specific number of orbs in every dungeon to unlock and challenge the dungeon’s boss for battle.

You would have to defeat the boss of a dungeon before you can loot its valuable treasure chests. The rewards in these chest include $ALG tokens, which you can use to buy valuable in-game items like gears, materials, and battle resupply accessories. To spice things up, there are three additional event-based dungeons (Mystery Island, Tortuga and Demon King Challenge) that are open every now and then.

ArchLoot claimed that they would add more dungeons to the game in the future. It is worth noting that the rewards and challenges of different dungeons are variable. The more difficult the dungeon's challenges are, the more resources you can receive. In order to enter a dungeon, you need a ticket. 

Players with monsters are given a free ticket every day. However, if you are looking to enter multiple dungeons daily, you can get tickets from the marketplace. A ticket to enter a dungeon offer a chance to take on its boss, and taking down the boss of a dungeon is a ticket to loot its treasure chest.

### Taking on Other Players in ALTvers

In addition to the main PvE mode,  ArchLoot also has PvP mode with solo or multiplayer formats. In the PvP mode, you will fight against other players using your customized weapons. These weapons are merely in-game items such as gears which can be used to attack an enemy from a distance. It deals damage to the enemies and automatically returns to you when the battle is over. You will be rewarded with ranking points and several upgrade materials upon winning. The shop in the arena allows you to buy weapons and other accessories that you can use in battles.

The end-season rewards depend on the ranking points as well. You will get $ALT tokens at the end of the season based on your ranking points in the Leaderboard. The PVP battles can be played in 1v1, team battles, brawls, and other formats. In 1v1 battles, you will fight with matched active player in an online battle. Team battles are based on teams of players playing in 3v3 battles. Brawls include fighting alongside other players against a single enemy. The rewards for all these battles is in $ALG tokens and also Experience Points (XPs) that you would need to level up in the game. 

### Rising Up the Ranks in ALTvers

Levelling up is crucial in the ArchLoot as your level is directly associated with your avatar and its abilities. Higher levels in the game allow you to upgrade your avatar’s skills, ALT parts (the in-game name for the monster’s NFT body parts), and stats. You can use items to level up body parts of your monster to either increase their movement speed, healing ability, and attack damage. For example, when you equip your monster with a Cat Hindlimbs body part, you can boost its Penetration Ability by +142 and Attack by +129. Moreover, raising levels will unlock new abilities, skills, and rewards for your avatars. For completing quests like defeating a dungeon boss, you will need a body with attacking stats. On the other hand, for quests that involve finding materials, you need parts that help speed up your monster.

In ArchLoot, the leveling-up process involves gaining experience points (XP) by completing various tasks, such as defeating enemies, completing quests, and exploring new areas. By leveling up, you will encounter tougher challenges while engaging in more exciting and dynamic gameplay.

ArchLoot

ArchLoot features an intricate NFT mechanism through the use of ALT Parts. As previously mentioned, each monster can be equipped with 5 NFT ALT parts namely head, torso, upper limb, lower limb, and accessory. The unique aspect of the ArchLoot NFTs is the on-chain implementation of upgradeable NFTs. What this means is that, each NFT part in the monster body can be strengthened, redesigned, or upgraded separately.

This modular framework allows you to create or assemble your monsters using ALT Parts. These NFT Parts can be obtained from the ArchLoot marketplace. or from externally supported marketplaces like Binance NFT.
