Every Raid represents a strategic decision where players must balance: * Crew strength * island difficulty * provision costs * reward potential * long-term progression Success in Vikings Valley depends on preparation, efficiency, and intelligent resource management. *** ## Raid Requirements In order to initiate a Raid, players must: * own a valid Raiding Crew * meet the island’s required RP * provide provisions for the expedition * have an available daily Raid attempt Without sufficient provisions or required RP, the Raid cannot begin. *** ## Daily Raid System Each Raiding Crew can perform: ## 1 Raid every 24 hours This limitation is designed to: * maintain economic sustainability * prevent excessive emissions * encourage strategic gameplay * reward long-term progression Efficient Crew management is essential for maximizing rewards over time *** ## Reward System Successful Raids generate TRIDIUM rewards. Reward ranges vary dynamically depending on: * island level * economic conditions * ODDIE system status * ecosystem sustainability Higher level islands provide significantly greater reward potential. *** ## Reward Distribution Raid rewards are divided into two categories: ### Locked In-Game Allocation A percentage of rewards remains inside the ecosystem and can only be used for: * minting * marketplace purchases * provisions * Crew management * ecosystem progression ### Vesting Rewards The remaining rewards are progressively unlocked over multiple days. This system is designed to: * reduce excessive sell pressure * encourage long-term participation * maintain economic balance * protect ecosystem sustainability Players may choose to perform early withdrawals, but doing so applies dynamic penalties and token burns. *** ## Strategic Progression Players may freely choose which island level to Raid, as long as their Crew meets the required RP. Lower level islands offer: * safer progression * lower operational costs * lower rewards Higher level islands offer: * increased profitability * higher risk * stronger progression opportunities Choosing the right Raid strategy is one of the most important aspects of Vikings Valley. --- # Agent Instructions This documentation is published with GitBook.
