DSA & DST Sinks

Since the launch of Drago, our focus has been on expanding the DSA & DST sinks to accommodate DSA production. Several updates have followed to incorporate the DSA economy into the gameplay loop, and we are actively exploring opportunities to expand further.

Drago Breeding (DST)

Breeding Drago introduces inheritance of appearance, element, and in-game stats. Legendary parts have a 5% chance to attain legendary status upon birth. The breeding process occurs up to 7 times, with costs increasing as the count rises. This engaging feature demands DST and LOKA, with DST being burned and LOKA directed to the LOKA DAO Vault.LOKA needs bridging to Polygon for breeding purposes.

We’ve been adjusting the breeding cost to cope with the market situation. Current DST and LOKA price for breeding is as follows:

Drago Lair (DSA)

Expanding the Drago Lair increases the capacity of Drago an account can house. The more Drago you have, the more Drago AP to use for mining DSA. It incentivizes users to acquire more Dragos and nudges them towards utilizing DSAs.

Drago Chimeric Fusion (DSA)

The Chimeric Fusion mechanic involves sacrificing one Drago to upgrade another. Successful fusion significantly boosts the upgraded Drago’s capabilities, contributing to increased competitiveness within the game’s loop. Additionally, this system effectively removes Dragos from the market, adding an element of scarcity.

To enhance the effectiveness of Drago Fusion, we’ve introduced a DSA mining speed bonus based on Fusion level. At the maximum Fusion level (level 15), a Drago can mine DSA four times faster compared to a Drago with no Fusion level. The detail of level progression can be found on the newly implemented UI.

Skin Enchanting (DSA)

The newly introduced Skin Enchanting feature enables players to invest DSA to amplify the power of their skins. Elevating skins up to +10 levels, resulting in three times the strength, the enchantment process demands DSA with a chance of success for each attempt.

DSA VIP & Shop (DSA)

Pledging your DSA to your game account will unlock the DSA VIP level. Each DSA VIP level provides buffs to your kingdom similar to the original VIP levels and rewards you with VIP items.

The DSA VIP level will update daily at UTC 00:00. When you choose to unpledge your DSA, it will be returned to your wallet within 24 to 48 hours.

Visit the VIP shop in the Caravan, where you’ll find the DSA tab dedicated to the DSA VIP shop. Here, you can purchase items using DSA. The shop’s inventory will be updated on a weekly basis, and each item will be accessible based on your DSA VIP level.

Please note that the DSA price for items is partially adjusted according to the current market price of DST.

DSA Roulette Event (DSA)

On LOKA Day, a DSA roulette event was held where every user could burn their DSA for exciting prizes. The roulette event witnessed a remarkable 57,880 spins, including free ones, and a staggering 346,120,000 DSAs were spent.

The DSA roulette event will be returning to the LOK community soon! So follow our official X account and don’t miss out the event!

DSA & DST Faucet:

DSA Mining

Players can deploy Dragos with bodyguard troops to mine DSA at DSA mines, found exclusively in lands with landowners. These mines refresh every 12 hours, and the quantity is adjusted daily at UTC 00:00 based on the number of Dragos and the LOKA pledging tier of the continent. If a player is attacked and defeated while mining DSA, they retain the DSA mined up to that point, adding a layer of protection to their efforts.

To mine DSA, player’s castle needs to be above level 20 to prevent mass account creations solely for the purpose of mining DSA. This adjustment aims to maintain balance and prevent exploitation of the mining system.

Dragon Soul Amber Mine (on & off)

DSA Daily Quest

Completing the Daily Quest will reward you with DSA. The Daily Quest system has been updated to a tiered structure based on the kingdom level. Kingdoms above level 16 begin receiving DSA rewards, with those above level 26 obtaining a more substantial reward of 1000 DSA a day.

Fail in Fusion

Chimeric Fusion requires quite a bit of luck to reach higher levels. If a player fails the Fusion, it will return part of DSAs that were spent in the process.

Others

Drago Rental

Not everyone can afford Drago, but fear not for there’s the in-house Drago rental system in LOK available for everyone to delve into the DSA economy.

The Rental process is simple and only require the wallet address to be done. In the ‘My Drago’ page, the owner of a Drago can simply put in the wallet address in the Drago’s detail page to rent out the Drago. On the ‘My page’, the owner can access the comprehensive rental records, allowing them to track who is renting their Drago and the corresponding DST earnings. Player can also visit our partner ‘Loortush’ to search for Dragos that you can rent.

On the Rental section, users can now access comprehensive rental records, including the efficiency of each Drago and the mining history. This will provide crucial insight for renters in managing the contract.

If you have Drago to spare, feel free to visit MyDrago page!

You can also rent and list your own Drago via LootRush!
LootRush is renting out Dragos as a free trial for users who want to try their platform (and LOK)! Drago owners can also rent their assets easily and securely to other players via the platform!

DSA Mining and LAND

DSA mining now contributes to Land development points, fostering a connection between two iconic NFTs of LOK — DRAGO and LAND. The formula for this contribution is based on the mined DSA amount, divided by 25, thereby creating synergy between the two components and potentially unlocking more NFT synergies in the future.

DST Dashboard

The DST Dashboard, a valuable addition to the game, is now live and divided into three parts. The DST section provides insights into the trend of DSTs being minted and burnt, offering valuable information on the overall health of the Drago economy. The DSA MINE section tracks DSA mines per continent, considering factors like the number of Dragos in action and the amount of LOKAs pledged. The DRAGO section reveals the total number of Dragos across all continents and those sacrificed for the Chimeric Fusion on a given day. Continuous improvements to the dashboard are planned based on insights gathered from the game economy.

Explore the multifaceted evolution of the DSA & DST economy within League of Kingdoms, where innovative sinks and faucets, coupled with additional features, contribute to a thriving in-game ecosystem, offering strategic depth and diverse opportunities for players.

About League of Kingdoms

League of kingdoms is a massively multiplayer (MMO) strategy game that is centered around building kingdoms and governing the world. Here the player can build a powerful kingdom and army, forge alliances, compete against others, and trade digital assets across the blockchain.

The LANDs are NFTs transparently and verifiably stored on the blockchain network, so players can own and trade freely. Gamers can not only own a parcel of Land, but various resources therein, and the future growth of the game platform.

About League of Kingdoms Arena (LOKA)

League of Kingdoms Arena (LOKA) is League of Kingdoms’ native governance token and will be the cornerstone for the game project’s expansion into metaverses where communities of gamers can own and thrive.

The LOKA will be utilized as the currency inside the League of Kingdoms game franchise for all in-game store purchases, such as purchasing packages, skins, and goods. Additionally, the LOKA token will act as an NFT booster to create, upgrade, and acquire special NFT assets, including but not limited to Drago and Skin NFTs. You can pledge the LOKA token to unlock special ingame utilities. Last but not least LOKA tokens can also be earned by playing the in-game competition and/or achieving special tasks — for example after each Continent vs. Continent (CvC) battle, winners will be rewarded with LOKA tokens (and potentially rarer NFT item rewards) depending on the performance during the battle.
