### How does Ascension for Guildies work?

Having Staff Guildies as allies will prove to be of crucial help for the player in ascending their Guildies! Owning $PIXEL will also be a requirement for the ascension ritual. Head to the Ascension Chamber, and once you've been granted access select the Guildie you wish to Ascend!

Once a Guildie has been Ascended, you'll be able to **STAKE** your ascended Guildie to earn $PIXEL.

### What is Ascension? <a href="#what-is-ascension" id="what-is-ascension"></a>

So far in the quest, $PIXEL can only be acquired by swapping $GOLD at the Black Market. Ascension enables users to Ascend their Guildies, and then stake them to passively earn $PIXEL.The $PIXEL they earned will be used within the PixelGuild Store to purchase cosmetics/loot boxes and other goodies which aren't otherwise available.

There are two ways you can ascend your Guildie NFT.

1. **Ascension Ritual**

   You can perform an Ascension ritual that only requires **30 $PIXEL** to Ascend but you need to also own **3 Staff Guildies of the same race** as the NFT you want to ascend. Your Staff Guildies are not consumed and can be used multiple times to ascend your entire collection.
2. **Force Ascension**

   It is possible to ascend a Guildie without a ritual but at an increased cost of **60 $PIXEL** per NFT ascended.

### **Key Points**

* You must pay the $PIXEL cost each time you want to ascend, if you remove your token from the ascension pool, you will need to re-pay the cost to ascend it again.
* Staff Guildies can be used multiple times to ascend your entire collection of the matching race.&#x20;
* Let's say you have 10 Orc Guildies, if you had 3 Orc Staffs as well it would only cost you 300 $PIXEL to ascend your collection. Without 3 Staffs, it would cost you 600 $PIXEL.&#x20;
* Ascension Rewards are decreased over time, the earlier you ascend the more $PIXEL you will earn.
* Once the staking emissions have been completed, ascension emissions will be sourced from $PIXEL that is spent in the customisation store.
* In the future you'll be able to **RENT Staffs** from other players to access Ascension

### Ascension - Staking Emissions

Ascended Guildies have a claim to the **1,066,560 $PIXEL** that will be rewarded for locking up your Guildie NFTs into the Ascension Staking pool. This supply of $PIXEL will decrease periodically over 4 stages, ensuring our most dedicated community members who can Ascend before everyone else will be rewarded the most.&#x20;

<table><thead><tr><th width="263">Emissions Stage</th><th>$PIXEL per day per NFT</th><th>$PIXEL allocated</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td>Stage 1</td><td>1</td><td>266,640</td></tr><tr><td>Stage 2</td><td>0.5</td><td>266,640</td></tr><tr><td>Stage 3</td><td>0.25</td><td>266,640</td></tr><tr><td>Stage 4</td><td>0.125</td><td>266,640</td></tr></tbody></table>

* Emissions **halve** once the $PIXEL allocated for that tier of emissions **runs out**.&#x20;
* Once the complete sum of the emissions tokens has been distributed to ascended and staked Guildies, emissions will stem from the $PIXEL used within the in-game $PIXEL item store.

{% hint style="info" %}
**Those who are early to Ascend are rewarded heavily!**
{% endhint %}

> *PS: All numbers within Ascension will be **adjusted** as needed as we progress to ensure demand and supply are kept fair.*

### Ascension - Rarity Multipliers

The rarity of each Guildie NFT is respected and rewarded by earning a multiplier on the $PIXEL emissions received for that token.&#x20;

| Rarity Class | Reward Multiplier | Quantity        |
| ------------ | ----------------- | --------------- |
| King         | 2x                | 4               |
| Mythic       | 1.4x              | Top 1%          |
| Legendary    | 1.3x              | Top 5%          |
| Epic         | 1.2x              | Top 15%         |
| Rare         | 1.1x              | Top 35%         |
| Uncommon     | 1.05x             | Top 60%         |
| Common       | 1.0x              | Everything else |

These rarity calculations will be made by looking at the entire collection, and not rarity within each race. Race-specific rarity is the default rarity we will use across the project but in order to be compatible with online NFT trading tools like [Tensor.trade ](https://www.tensor.trade/trade/pixel_guild_loot_legends)rarity, in this scenario, rarity will be calculated using the entire collection.
