Extraction Fields
Core Extraction Rules
Extraction Field Identity
Extraction Fields are not ordinary farming maps.
They are designed around three pressures:
| Pressure | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Resource Pressure | Valuable ore veins are limited and contested. |
| PvP Pressure | Other players can interrupt, ambush, or contest your route. |
| Monster Pressure | Strong monsters and guardian MVPs make the zone dangerous even without PvP. |
The goal is simple:
Enter → Mine → Survive → Extract → Upgrade
How Extraction Fields Work
| Step | Description |
|---|---|
| 1. Enter the Field | Players access the Extraction Field through a special entrance NPC or portal. |
| 2. Locate Ore Veins | Ore veins appear across the map with different rarities and reward tiers. |
| 3. Mine the Vein | Players interact with the ore vein to obtain extraction materials. |
| 4. Survive the Zone | Monsters, guardian MVPs, and other players may threaten the run. |
| 5. Extract Resources | Materials can be used for crafting, upgrades, special equipment, and progression systems. |
Extraction Field Rules
- PvP is enabled inside Extraction Fields.
- Ore veins have variable rarity.
- Rare veins are more valuable and more contested.
- Guardian MVPs may appear in or around extraction routes.
- Extraction materials are used for equipment progression and advanced crafting.
- Some drops may be exclusive to Extraction Fields.
- Players should expect both monster danger and player competition.
- Field balance may be adjusted over time to preserve Pre-Renewal power level.
Ore Vein Rarity
Extraction Material Chain
Low Extraction Fields - Base Lvl 1-40
The Low Extraction Field is the first step into the mining system. The area contains safer ore veins, weaker monsters, and lower-value materials. PvP remains active, but the field is designed to teach players how extraction routes, mining pressure, and resource competition work.
Low Field Resources
| Resource Type | Expected Value | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Common Veins | High frequency | Main source of basic ores and early mining materials. |
| Uncommon Veins | Medium frequency | Better materials, usually near monster-dense areas. |
| Epic Veins | Low frequency | Rare targets that may attract PvP. |
| Legendary Veins | Very low frequency | Minor guardian monsters may appear near valuable routes. |
Deep Extraction Field - Base Lvl 41-75
The Deep Extraction Field is a contested mid-tier mining zone where uncommon and epic ore veins become more frequent. Monsters are stronger, player conflict is more likely, and guardian presence becomes more dangerous. This is where mining becomes a serious progression path.
Deep Field Resources
| Resource Type | Expected Value | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Common Veins | Medium frequency | Still available, but less central to the field. |
| Uncommon Veins | High frequency | Core material source for mid-tier crafting. |
| Epic Veins | Medium frequency | Major conflict points. |
| Legendary Veins | Very low frequency | Rare, dangerous, and highly contested. |
Guardian Extraction Field - Base Lvl 81-99
The Guardian Extraction Field is the highest-risk mining zone. Legendary veins, guardian MVPs, and open PvP make this field extremely dangerous. Players entering this zone should expect ambushes, boss pressure, and competition over the strongest extraction rewards.
Guardian Field Resources
| Resource Type | Expected Value | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Uncommon Veins | Medium frequency | Baseline resource layer for advanced mining. |
| Epic Veins | High frequency | Primary source of valuable materials. |
| Legendary Veins | Medium frequency | Highest-value mining targets. |
| Guardian MVPs | Active | Special bosses that defend the field and drop rare extraction materials. |

- Carnium

Guardian MVPs
Guardian MVPs are special boss monsters connected to Extraction Fields.
They may appear through:
- Timed spawns
- Mining activity
- Legendary vein interaction
- Dynamic field progress
- Special server events
Guardian MVPs are designed to create conflict around the most valuable resources.
| Guardian Feature | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Territory Control | Guardian MVPs often appear near valuable mining routes or rare vein areas. |
| PvP Pressure | Players may fight each other while attempting to kill the guardian. |
| Rare Drops | Guardians may drop extraction-exclusive materials. |
| High Risk | Fighting guardians while carrying mining resources is dangerous. |
Extraction PvP Rules
Extraction Fields are open-conflict zones. Players should not enter these maps expecting safe farming. Mine carefully, watch your surroundings, and prepare to fight or escape.
General PvP expectations:
- Players may contest ore veins.
- Guardian MVP fights may become PvP hotspots.
- Mining routes can be ambushed.
- Carrying high-value materials increases risk.
- Parties have a major advantage in dangerous extraction areas.
- Field rules may vary depending on map configuration.
Extraction Strategy
| Strategy | Description |
|---|---|
| Fast Route Mining | Focus on common and uncommon veins, avoid PvP hotspots, and leave quickly. |
| Contested Vein Control | Fight for epic and legendary veins with a party. |
| Guardian Hunting | Track guardian MVPs and control the area around them. |
| Defensive Mining | Use mobility, escape tools, and map awareness to avoid player fights. |
| Party Extraction | Bring damage dealers, supports, and control classes to secure the field. |
Extraction Rewards Summary
| Content | Main Rewards | Risk Level |

Design Notes
Extraction Fields are designed for players who want risk-based progression.
Unlike normal farming maps, the value of the zone comes from conflict, danger, and scarcity. A successful extraction run is not only about killing monsters — it is about entering the field, securing resources, surviving pressure, and leaving with materials that matter.
