Token Utility

Astraeus Defense has an economy centered around its most sought after resource:
Astraen Crystals (AC), the utility token at the heart of the ecosystem.

Quest System

Astraen Crystals are obtained through daily quests, requiring players to stay active and complete challenging tasks frequently. As you progress, you may spend your crystals to optimize your quest line and unlock more quest slots in the pursuit of crystals.

Forging Marks

Astraen Crystals can be used to forge unique tradable items known as Astraen Marks. You may equip a mark to enhance in-game rewards, giving you the ability to earn rare cosmetics that may also be traded with other players.

The Marketplace

Astraeus features an in-game marketplace that allows people to purchase and list in-game items for Astraen Crystals. Trade with other players to find marks and cosmetics that suit your playstyle.

Form Clans

Unite your friends and build formidable clans. Form a clan and coordinate resources to grow in force as you acquire more members and purchase clan upgrades. Unlock mighty clan quests that offer exclusive seasonal rewards to clans strong enough to take them on.

Battle Passes

Progress through seasonal battle passes, providing access to exclusive new rewards, including powerful boosts and limited edition seasonal cosmetics. Unlock these with a traditional purchase, or lock up enough Astraen Crystals to unlock battle passes for free.
