Level 10

Unlock condition

Crafting, Gathering, Substance Morph, Item Extraction and the Daeva Pass all unlock at character level 10.

How the gate works

Main story progression. All five systems arrive together at level 10, along with Attendance rewards and the Snapshot tool.

What it gives you

What Unlocks

Level 10 is the biggest single unlock wall of the early game: crafting professions, the gathering system (with gatherable resources tracked on the map), Substance Morph for converting materials, Item Extraction for pulling value back out of gear, and the Daeva Pass season track.

Substance Morph and Extraction

Substance Morph converts surplus materials into useful ones; Item Extraction recovers enhancement-relevant value from gear you outgrow. Both feed the same Kina-and-stones economy that the economy hub covers — nothing you gather is worthless.

How to get there

What to Do at 10

Pick up gathering immediately — nodes you pass while questing are free income — and take one crafting profession that matches your class's armor or weapon. Crafting mastery quests train the profession while you level.
