Phase3: Evolution

Virus Evolution Explained

We have completed the developments for Phase 3, so it’s time to unveil the principles of the virus evolution.

Evolution

First of all, evolution happens randomly, like in nature, and it can improve or diminish the virus traits. This is a crucial aspect of the 0xPandemic rarity system. There are 1% of class V on paper, but because the evolution happens randomly and with mixed outcomes, the most potent viruses will be way rarer than the 1% drop rate for class V.

Depending on the class, the evolution can be bigger or smaller. Regardless of the class, every virus can evolve up to ten times by paying an increasing amount of $AMINO. However, after four evolutions, you need to consume $DARWIN to keep evolving your virus.

More about $DARWIN in future updates.

Tiers

Depending on the number of evolutions that happened, there are different costs:

1. It costs 20 $AMINO

2. It costs 40 $AMINO

3. It costs 80 $AMINO

4. It costs 100 $AMINO

5. It costs 120 $AMINO + 1 DARWIN

6. It costs 150 $AMINO + 5 DARWIN

7. It costs 200 $AMINO + 10 DARWIN

8. It costs 300 $AMINO + 15 DARWIN

9. It costs 400 $AMINO + 20 DARWIN

10. It costs 800 $AMINO + 40 DARWIN

How to evolve a virus

Go to the virus details page you want to evolve and click on “evolve”. After the transaction has been mined, you will get the virus's new traits, and the increments/decrements applied.

The thumbnail will be regenerated as well based on the new traits.

Last but not least

We are thrilled to announce that we will release the evolution update next Tuesday.
