Getting Started
What do I need to play?You need Beasts from Loot Survivor. Beasts are earned by killing monsters during Loot Survivor gameplay or can be purchased on secondary markets.
How do I get Beasts?Play Loot Survivor and kill beasts during your adventure — each beast kill mints a collectible Beast. You can also buy them on secondary markets.
How do I start?Select one of your Beasts and attack the current Summit holder. Your first attack unlocks quests for that beast.
Battle System
How do battles work?Battles are turn-based: the attacker strikes first, then the defender counter-attacks. Damage is calculated using Base Power = Beast Level x (6 - Beast Tier), modified by type advantages and upgrades.
What are the type advantages?Rock-paper-scissors system: Brute beats Hunter, Hunter beats Magical, Magical beats Brute. Having type advantage gives +50% damage; disadvantage gives -50% damage.
What is multi-attack?You can attack the Summit multiple times in a single transaction using revival potions. The cost increases per use (1st costs 1 potion, 2nd costs 2, etc., up to a max cost of 64). All attacks happen atomically, preventing the defender from making changes mid-battle.
How do critical hits work?Critical hits deal +100% base damage. The chance depends on your beast's Luck stat, ranging from 0% at Luck 0 to 100% at Luck 100.
How does XP work?Attackers earn 10 XP base + 1 XP per consecutive attack (max +10 bonus). Attackers can gain up to 40 bonus levels. Defenders earn XP only if they have the Wisdom upgrade (XP = attacker's power / 100).
Beast Upgrades
What are $SKULL and $CORPSE tokens?$SKULL tokens are earned by killing beasts in Loot Survivor (1 per kill) and used for attribute and ability upgrades. $CORPSE tokens are earned from dead adventurers in Loot Survivor (1 per adventurer level) and used for health upgrades.
What attributes can I upgrade?- Luck: 1 $SKULL per level (up to 100 levels). Increases critical hit chance.
- Spirit: 1 $SKULL per level (up to 100 levels). Reduces revival cooldown from 24 hours down to 4 hours at max level.
- Specials (10 $SKULL): Activates prefix (8x) and suffix (2x) damage bonuses when beast names match.
- Diplomacy (15 $SKULL): Share rewards with other beasts that have matching names.
- Wisdom (20 $SKULL): Gain XP when defending (XP = attacker power / 100).
- Vitality (1 $CORPSE per point): Add bonus health, up to 2,000 extra HP.
Consumables
What potions are available?- Revival Potions: Skip the 24-hour death cooldown. Cost increases per use (1, 2, 3... up to 64).
- Attack Potions: +10% bonus damage per potion (max 255 per beast). Attackers only.
- Extra Life Potions: Give defenders multiple lives (max 4,000). Restores full health when consumed.
- Poison Potions: Deal 1 damage per second to the Summit holder. Multiple stack. Cannot kill (stops at 1 HP with 0 extra lives).
Potions are sold through a Continuous Clearing Auction (CCA) via Ekubo liquidity pool. Prices start high and decrease over time. 100% of proceeds go to buy back $SURVIVOR for the DAO treasury.
Rewards & Quests
How do I earn $SURVIVOR from holding the Summit?The Summit holder earns 0.007 $SURVIVOR per second. You must hold for at least one full block (approximately 2-3 seconds) to earn anything. Rewards are claimed when your beast is dethroned.
How does Diplomacy reward sharing work?Each beast with the Diplomacy upgrade and a matching name earns 0.00005 $SURVIVOR per second while a matching beast holds the Summit. Up to 75 matching beasts can earn simultaneously.
What quests are available?Quests include: First Blood (attack the Summit), Consistency is Key (10-attack streak), level-up milestones (1/3/5/10 levels), Summit Conqueror (capture the Summit), Iron Grip (hold for 10+ seconds), Second Wind (revive and attack), and A Vital Boost (use attack potion). Each beast can earn up to 0.95 $SURVIVOR from quests. The 36,000 $SURVIVOR quest pool is first come, first serve.
Strategy
How should I choose which beast to use?Check the current Summit holder's type. Use a beast with type advantage for +50% damage. Higher level and lower tier beasts deal more base damage.
When is the best time to attack?Attack during low-activity periods or when top beasts are on cooldown (24 hours after death, reduced by Spirit upgrades). Early in the game, there are fewer beasts competing and lower upgrade costs.
Should I focus on offense or defense?Offensive builds (Attack Potions, Luck for crits) are good for capturing the Summit. Defensive builds (Extra Lives, Vitality) help hold it longer to earn more $SURVIVOR per second.
After the Game Ends
Will there be another Summit season?There are no planned additional seasons at this time.
Do my beast upgrades carry over?Upgrades are designed for the current Summit. While upgrades may carry over to future events, this is not guaranteed.
