#### Step 3 — The Farm After logging in, the first screen you’ll see is the **Farm**.\ This is where you plant and harvest crops such as **carrots, strawberries, grapes**, and more. * Each crop has a **cost, grow time, and return**. * At the beginning, you’ll have only a few slots available. * As you level up, **new slots unlock**, letting you plant more crops at the same time.

**Crops & Farming 🌱** Below is a list of available seeds in Early Harvest, with their grow times, costs, and Gold returns. | Seed | Grow Time | Cost | Sell Price | Notes | | -------------------- | ---------- | ------------- | ---------- | ---------------------------------- | | **Champagne Grapes** | 5 seconds | Invite reward | 50 Gold | Only unlocked through Invite codes | | **Wild Strawberry** | 5 seconds | Free | 5 Gold | Daily free crop (limited per day) | | **Carrot** | 20 minutes | Free | 50 Gold | Daily free crop | | **Potato** | 1 hour | Free | 25 Gold | Free | | **Hibiscus** | 4 hours | 5 Gold | 18 Gold | — | | **Barley** | 8 hours | 10 Gold | 38 Gold | — | | **Oranges** | 24 hours | 50 Gold | 200 Gold | — | *(More seeds may be introduced in future updates.)* #### Step 4 — Raids The second main tab is **Raids**. Here you can battle against powerful bosses: * **Arachnix** (the Sanguine) * **Grizzlemaw** (the Ferocious) Defeating these bosses is not just about survival — it’s how you earn valuable loot and mounts. * Defeat **Arachnix or Grizzlemaw 30 times** to unlock them as mounts.

* Raids drop **Tier 1 Loot** and **Tier 2 Loot**: * **Tier 1 Loot**: 9 items to collect * **Tier 2 Loot**: 12 items to collect * *(Tiers III, IV, and V will be added in the future)* * Loot can include cards, weapons, armor, and other cosmetic rewards.

#### Step 5 — Gold The **Gold** tab is where you manage in-game currency and transactions.

Here you’ll find: * **Skins** → cosmetic appearances for your character. There are **25 skins** to choose from.

Both **skins** and **Tier I/II loot items** are represented by unique cards. Each card can be visualized in **3D**, allowing you to see the item you’ve acquired in detail. *Here below you can see an example — click to see the card 👇* {% file src="" %} * **Credit** → exchange options between Gold and other currencies. * Example: transfer **1,000 Gold** for **10 credits (ETH equivalent)**. * **$SEXY** → purchase **10,000 Gold** for **50 $SEXY**. When you do this, you also open a **mystery box** that contains loot shards.

*This tab is your main hub for trading, buying, and managing Gold within the game.* **Step 6 — Loot** When you win loot in rallies or raids, you receive **loot cards** instead of the full equipment directly. * Each piece of equipment requires **4 specific cards** (A, 2, 3, 4). * Example: *Stormedge Skullsplitter* requires cards **A, 2, 3, and 4**. * If you only have one or two cards, the equipment will **not yet appear in your inventory**. * You can check your progress: * Go to **“Raids”** in the interface. * Scroll down to see the equipment list and which cards you already own. ⚠️ Important: The card itself disappears from the display once claimed, but it still counts toward your collection. Once all 4 cards are collected, the equipment is automatically added to your inventory.

#### Step 7 — Char The **Char** tab is where you manage and upgrade your hero.

* **Attributes** → train your character’s **Strength, Agility, Intelligence, and Stamina** using $SEXY and time. * **Tagline** → edit the personal phrase displayed above your character. * **Gear & Skins** → equip gear, apply skins, and mount unlocks. *This is the central place to customize your hero’s look and progression for battle.* #### Step 8 — Bandit

The **Bandit** tab introduces competitive farming and PvP encounters. * Normally, when transporting your harvest to the **Market**, you might face enemies like the Bear. * With Bandit Mode, you can also encounter **other players online** instead of just beasts. * If you win the battle, you continue to the Market and sell your crops. If you lose, your harvest is stolen. *In this mode, you don’t fight alone. By training your **soldiers**, they join you in battle, increasing your strength and your chances to win loot from other players.* #### Step 9 — Town

The **Town** tab is the social hub of EthXY. * Players gather in a shared space, like a plaza. * You can **chat with others**, show off your **mounts**, and move around the map. * It’s a lobby where the community comes together, outside of farming and battles. #### Step 10 — Invites

The **Invites** tab lets you bring new players into the game. * Each player receives **5 invite codes**. * You can copy these codes and share them with friends or on social media. * If 5 friends join EthXY using your code, you unlock the special **Champagne Grape Seed** — a valuable crop that provides significant rewards when planted.
