Cambria Season 2 Opportunity

Cambria Season 2

Cambria's Season 2, titled "The Paymasters," features a substantial prize pool and multiple ways to participate and earn rewards. The main prize pool is funded by player spending (ETH/RON) within the game and is distributed in USDC at the end of the season. The prize pool has exceeded $1 million and is expected to increase as more players join and spend in-game. Season 2 began on April 11, 2025, and ends on April 25, 2025.

Prize Pool Structure

Main Prize Pool (USDC):

  • Composed of 90% of all ETH/RON spent in-game during the season.

  • Distributed at season's end based on the amount of in-game Coins held by each player (minimum 10 USDC to cash out).

  • Additional allocations:

    • 5% for bug bounty rewards

    • 5% for content creators and referrals

Airdrop and Raffles:

  • Over $1 million in future airdrop rewards (Cambria tokens) distributed via "Bribes" (loot crates) earned through Royal Favor points.

  • Land Raffle Tickets for upcoming NFT land sales are also included in Bribes.

Weekly Abstract XP:

  • Awarded based on Royal Favor earned, Trinkets collected, Charters minted, and Energy Orbs purchased.

How to Participate

1. Obtain a Royal Charter

  • Purchase: Mint a Royal Charter for 56 RON (or 0.02 ETH on Abstract). This acts as a "battle pass," unlocking earning features and daily energy regeneration.

  • Guild Sponsorship: Join a guild and play under a sponsored Charter, similar to the "scholar" model in other games. The guild receives a share of your earnings.

2. Play and Earn

  • Active Play: Explore, gather resources, fight monsters, and collect corrupted loot (Artifacts, Curios, Gems). Exchange loot at the Royal Treasury to earn Coins and Royal Favor. The more Coins you accumulate, the larger your share of the main prize pool.

  • Guild Participation: Guild leaders (Viceroys) deposit 10+ Charters or hold a Founder NFT to sponsor players and set tax rates on member earnings. Guilds can provide energy orbs and access to resources, boosting members' earning potential.

  • Passive Play (Paymasters): Deposit Charters into the Syndicate Vault to earn Syndicate Shares, which entitle you to a portion of taxes from Charter sales and loot cash-ins by solo players. Paymasters do not need to actively play to earn from the prize pool.

3. Climb the Leaderboards

  • Silver Leaderboard: Rank up by collecting and cashing in loot to maximize your share of the prize pool.

  • Points Leaderboard: Accumulate Royal Favor to earn Bribes, which contain Trinkets (for airdrop points) and Land Raffle Tickets.

4. Energy Management

  • Energy: Required for most in-game actions. Charter holders get daily regeneration; free-to-play players have a limited energy pool. Energy Orbs can be purchased to restore energy, with a daily cap to prevent excessive farming.
