New VIM Tiers Overview! Brand New Artwork, Super Titled Vanguard Treasures & more!
Beloved VIMworld community,
With the great VIM-migration and smart contract upgrades well underway, we’re excited to be unveiling an overview of our updated VIM Tier system which includes the arrival of new Tiers beyond S Tier, with brand new, beautiful artwork for each and every VIM!
On top of that, we’re also happy to reveal awesome new Super Titled Vanguard treasures for S Tier VIMs and beyond!
New Tiers, New Features, Brand New Artwork
Our old smart contracts only allowed VIMs to be upgraded to a maximum of S Tier, with artwork upgrades limited to just a few tiers (namely, A Tier and S Tier).
We wanted more for our community. As such, we reinvented the whole tier system and enhanced it further with the introduction of the VIMenergy system. This allows VIMs to be upgraded beyond S Tier and it has provided us an opportunity to rebalance the Tier structure and rewards moving forwards to make things more lucrative for the community.
VIMs now have 17 Tiers, ranging from F Tier at the low end to SX Tier at the highest. With more Tiers coming to our ecosystem, we will be able to create more diverse events targeting different demographics, allowing for more flexibility in how we create VIM experiences and develop gaming possibilities.
Artwork Unlocks
VIMs now unlock artwork evolutions at the following Tiers:
F to B Tier VIMs will continue to display their default, original artwork. At A Tier, the first artwork evolution is unlocked. S2 Tier unlocks the second evolution, S6 Tier unlocks the third evolution, and finally, SX Tier delivers the final, ultimate artwork evolution.
VIMs that reach S6 tier will unlock brand new, completely unique artwork. The S6 Tier artworks for all VIMs features new, epic, previously unseen designs. Finally, VIMs that reach SX Tier will feature a special holographic and 3D animated design!
All VIM artwork has been developed by their respective designers, whether it be original series or third party series to ensure the high quality and art style befitting of such an upgrade.
As explained in our VIM migration and upgrade announcement, Tiers are determined by the amount of VIMenergy stored within a VIM. VIMenergy is derived from VEED tokens and the price of VEED tokens on a given day.
Special Eligibility For Events, Missions, Quests
As mentioned in the VIMworld Public Project Proposal, owning high tier VIMs and VIMenergy is a key to participating in our events, missions, quests, giveaways and more. (Obviously there are other keys to being successful in VIMworld, but that’s another article)
Periodically, VIMworld will run in-game events and missions that require high tier VIMs as a requirement to participate. Events may range from limited edition VIM giveaways, VEED token rewards, Treasure token airdrops, EGG and Companion related missions, and much more. For example, the ongoing Erlang Shen Devotion VIM event involves acquiring a free limited edition VIM which requires high VIMenergy in a wallet.
The interactive experiences of VIMworld will be a unique selling point that rewards our users that are dedicated to upgrade their VIMs.
VIMworld’s physical & real world events may also reward users with high tier VIMs, such as exclusive VIM merchandise and special invitations to exclusive events!
Blessings & VIMpool
One of the most popular events are our Blessings giveaway, where a Deity visits VIMworld metaverse, giving away lucrative rewards such as VIM giveaways, VEED token airdrops and more. As mentioned, these events may be limited to only high tier VIMs, such as S Tiers and above, depending on the type of event.
VIMpool is also a key tokenomics and reward mechanism for high tier VIMs. A portion of all fees in the VIMworld ecosystem, ranging from marketplace fees to feasting fees and more, will be channeled into a special rewards pool that will distribute passive rewards to high tier VIMs.
We plan to introduce VIMpool in a more detailed manner in a future article. Please stay tuned!
VIMworld Interactive Experiences Benefits
As we expand our ecosystem, we plan to introduce games and other multimedia interactive experiences that will make use of VIMs. In these experiences, the tier of the VIM would reflect the value in-game and in-experience.
Vanguards of VIMworld — From Lux to Supreme and Beyond
A new era has dawned on the world of VIMs. New heroes and champions are crowned as they ascend to Vanguards of the Universe. As these legends continue their cultivation and intake of VIMenergy, they transcend yet further, mastering the secrets of the Universe.
A while back, we announced the Vanguard series of Treasures — a special reward that identifies and adorns our most dedicated VIM collectors in recognition of their valiance. As VIMs are now able to go beyond S Tier, a new set of Vanguard Treasures will be given to the Top 10 fastest individuals to reach the lofty heights of our new system, complete with new lore and Treasure designs.
To recap, the Top 10 fastest individuals to level their VIMs to S Tier would receive Vanguard Treasures, with awards broken down as follows:
Lux Demigod — 1st to reach S-Tier
Lux Master — 2nd to reach S-Tier
Lux Champion — 3rd to reach S-Tier
Lux Noble — 4th & 5th to reach S-Tier
Lux Journeyman — 6th -10th to reach S-Tier
Benefits of Earning Vanguard Treasures:
By feeding and feasting your VIM early as an early adopter, you will be able to earn benefits for your achievement.
- These Treasures are rare, prized and exclusive awards that a VIM can obtain; it is a high achievement for a given VIM that can never be replicated.
- Vanguard VIM will enjoy a variety of exclusive benefits from our events and experiences.
- As the VIMworld ecosystem grows with more VIMs and community size, VIMs with Vanguard Treasures will be coveted as a collector’s must due to its rarity.
- In VIMworld Interactive Experiences, Vanguard Treasures will serve as power ups and boosts.
- Vanguard Achievers are written into the Community Lore of the VIMworld ecosystem.
The above graphic shows the new Vanguard treasures that one can obtain. For example, for S1 VIMs, Vanguard Treasures will be given as such:
Diamond Demigod — 1st to reach S1-Tier
Diamond Master — 2nd to reach S1-Tier
Diamond Champion — 3rd to reach S1-Tier
Diamond Noble — 4th-5th to reach S1-Tier

Vanguards in the VIMworld Universe Lore
Vanguards are bestowed only to the most courageous and determined warriors and individuals. These treasures denote the presence of a being transcending from mortal planes to the realms of deities.
The final phases of this transformation unlock unimaginable potential for its owner. The natural law and Rules of the Universe reserves 10 distinguished individuals of each Existence to receive these Treasures, and the highest honor becomes a Demigod. A Demigod wields Divine power, which is said to have the possibility to control over luck and fate itself.
Below are excerpts from our written lore, in which full details will be available in our VIMdex in a future update that incorporates stories and media features of the VIMworld Universe.
S Tier Lux Vanguards — The first phase of the transformation and ascension of a soul as a result of the cultivation and absorption of VIMenergy. The beginning of The Vanguards of the World. This Treasure is given to individuals and signifies their bravery, loyalty and steadfastness.
S1 Diamond Vanguards — The Diamonds are a symbol that one withstands the greatest of pressures. Only those who can handle great reserves of VIMenergy are able to break through the dimensional barriers of the mortal realms on the path of ascension that was previously thought to be impossible.
S4 Ruby Vanguards — As the ascension of the soul continues, one reaches the point of the Ruby. The Ruby, known as the king of the precious stones and the fruit of the Tree of Life is able to grant its blessings and has the ability to fulfill a wish for this individual.
All Vanguard treasures are implemented into the VIMworld Universe and will be used in the lore in our VIMexperiences and future stories and media content.
Aim for the highest Tiers you can and obtain the status of Ultimate Titan. There can only be one. Glory awaits!
The rewards for feeding your VIMs is not just limited to what we have listed in this article. So many more events and rewards are still being designed and worked on behind the scenes. We look forward to your participation!
