1v1 fighting vs mobs and real players. The fight looks pretty simple - you can attack or cast a spell. This means your weapon, clothes, abilities, and stats matter the most.

$RAIDER is a governance token. By staking and holding, players got rewarded with airdrops of Mounts and Mobs which is a passive income NFT. Mobs fight players in PvE, and if they kill a character they get $AURUM and some of their loot.
