<aside> 🗣 Adalians, before you start testing there are some basics you need to know to ensure your safety and success when participating in the early testing of Adalian equipment.
</aside>
Everything you need to be able to utilize and test features within Influence is outlined below.
<aside> 🗣 It is the dawn of a new era! Adalians are no longer confined to the interior of the Arvad. Today we have the opportunity to step outside the ship and start colonizing a new star system untouched by humanity. While we are free to move away from the constrictive limits of our great ship, we must remember that we are also leaving behind her safety and comfort. Beginning anew won’t be easy, and there is still much to do before we have a self-sustaining colony on Adalia Prime. The work that all of you do today will help to create a stable and thriving colony for tomorrow.
If we are to survive, we must extract resources from the asteroids. Scanning asteroids, core sampling, and mining resources are the first significant steps we can take to ensure our survival in this harsh environment. And, of course, those Adalians with more experience in this area will surely rise to the top.
Thank you for testing this new equipment. As you proceed, always consider the question:
How will you expand your influence?

<aside> 💡 NOTE: When completing actions in-game it will require a second verification step within your given account (Cartridge, ArgentX, or Braavos). However, if you use Cartridge and enable sessions on login, you won’t need to double confirm actions.

<aside> ‼️ QUESTS ARE NOW OVER. REWARDS ARE NO LONGER AVAILABLE UNTIL PHASE 4.
</aside>
During our incentivized game testing period, players earn SWAY by playing in the testnet, creating and sharing content, and providing feedback. Influence is a space strategy MMO, and we want players to dive in and have fun. During the “Phase 3 Test-to-Earn,” the features outlined in “Playing Influence” above are included in some way with the rewards you can earn by completing Quests.
Quests in Phase 3 focus on claiming lots, core sampling, setting up buildings, mining, and transferring goods to your Warehouses. Doing each action alone will earn you only a small fraction of the total amount if you complete the entire quest line.
If you need help with how to complete a quest in-game, please use the tutorials/guides.

<aside> 💡 There is a cap on total rewards that everyone testing can cumulatively earn. Once reached, Quest rewards will stop, but the playable features will remain. All actions are tracked on-chain and are not gameable. You can only complete each quest once per player. The total Quest reward cap is 200 million SWAY for Test-to-Earn Phase 3.
</aside>
<aside> 💡 Players can earn up to 120,000 SWAY.

<aside> 🗣 For the engineers and scientists onboard the Arvad to ensure systems are functioning, they have asked the Prime Council to request Adalian Colonists like you run a series of tests. The test results will give the Council an understanding of what you are doing and the challenges you may encounter.
</aside>
<aside> 🗣 The Prime Council wants to see where colonists like you wish to settle on Adalia Prime. They have finished the systems for you to claim lots and sent prototypes to Adalia Prime’s surface for you to utilize once you have settled your desired lots.

<aside> 💡 NOTE: This quest must be completed on Adalia Prime (use the finding Adalia Prime tutorial if you need help with this)
</aside>
<aside> 🗣 The engineers and scientists are confident that the device to sample lots to uncover what resources are mineable on a given spot is well engineered; however, we need colonists like you to go out and test them. Your initial samples will ensure our scanning devices are accurate and the Core Samplers work as intended.
