How Multipliers Boost Rewards

Multipliers can be strategically used to increase the rewards from several actions within the ecosystem:

• Enhanced Mint Rewards: Multipliers can be applied during the minting of new Master Editions to increase the $QUEST token allocation received.
• Increased Royalties: By using Multipliers, the royalty rates for Master Edition holders can be boosted from a base rate of 50% up to 75%, providing a significant increase in earnings from Edition sales and minting.
• Free Spins: Certain Multipliers, such as those associated with Mystery NFTs, offer additional benefits like a free spin claim per Master Edition NFT, which can be transferred if not used.
• Gameplay Enhancements: Future updates may include the use of Multipliers to boost rewards in gameplay activities, such as battles or quests, offering players more strategic depth and incentive.
• Shop Discounts: Multipliers might also provide discounts in the in the in-game shop, allowing players to purchase items at reduced prices.

How to Use Multipliers Effectively

• Identify the Action: Determine which in-game action you want to boost. This could be anything from minting a new Critter to participating in battles or events.
• Select the Multiplier: Choose the Multiplier that offers the boost percentage most beneficial for your intended action. Multipliers come in various tiers, such as 10%, 20%, 25%, 30%, 40%, 50%, 75%, 100%, and special Mystery Multipliers that offer additional benefits.
• Apply the Multiplier: Use the Multiplier during the action to increase its reward output. For example, applying a 25% Multiplier to a minting action could significantly increase the amount of $QUEST tokens you receive.
• Strategic Planning: Since Multipliers are single-use and burn after use, consider when and where to use them for maximum benefit. This requires strategic thinking about your overall game strategy and the specific actions you want to enhance.

Strategic Considerations

Multipliers can be strategically used to increase the rewards from several actions within the ecosystem:

• Stacking Multipliers: In some cases, you might be able to stack different Multipliers for a cumulative effect. Always check the game mechanics to see if stacking is allowed and how it works.
• Future Utility: Consider how the use of a Multiplier might impact future actions or benefits. Sometimes, saving a Multiplier for a future opportunity could be more advantageous.
• Market Dynamics: Be aware of how the supply and demand for Multipliers in the market might affect their value and your ability to acquire them.

Total Supply and How It Changes

As of January 11, 2025, about 12,500 Multiplier NFTs were created (or "minted"). Right now, only 7,790 remain. The supply keeps getting smaller because of a process called "burning," which removes NFTs from circulation over time.

What Happens When You Use Them?

Each Multiplier NFT is single-use. When you use one—like to boost your $QUEST rewards or royalty rates—it gets "burned." This means it's permanently taken out of the supply and can't be used again. That's why the total number keeps dropping.

Where Did They Come From?

These NFTs were first handed out for free to community members and during marketing events. New ones aren't added regularly unless there's a special mint, so the burning process drives the decrease in supply.

Standard Boosts

These are the core options you'll find, each offering a different level of reward enhancement:

• 10%: A small but useful boost, perfect for everyday actions where you want a little extra without using up a bigger Multiplier.
• 20%: Steps up the reward slightly, giving a noticeable bump for actions like minting or royalty increases.
• 25%: A solid middle-ground choice, balancing value and availability for frequent use.
• 30%: Starts to pack more punch, ideal for when you want a meaningful boost without going all-in.
• 40%: A stronger option, great for actions where you're aiming for bigger returns.
• 50%: Doubles your base reward potential (up to caps), making it a go-to for high-value moves.
• 75%: A rare and powerful boost, amplifying rewards significantly—best saved for key moments.
• 100%: The top-tier standard boost, doubling rewards where allowed, though caps may apply.

Premium Boost: Mystery NFT

The Mystery NFT is a special category with premium perks:

• Free Master Edition Mint: Grants you a Master Edition NFT at no extra cost—a huge perk for collectors or players aiming to level up.
• 300% Boost: Delivers a massive reward increase, far beyond standard options, making it a game-changer for eligible actions.
• Stack Two More: Unlike standard boosts, this lets you add two additional Multipliers on top, potentially stacking up to three for an even bigger effect (where stacking is permitted).

How Boosts Work in Action

Each percentage reflects how much extra you'll get from a specific action—like more $QUEST tokens from a mint or a higher royalty rate. The higher the boost, the bigger the reward, but keep in mind they're single-use and burn after you apply them. Some actions may have caps (like the 50% initial royalty boost limit), so the full percentage might not always apply—check the rules for each use case. With the Mystery NFT, you're getting elite benefits, but its rarity makes it a prized find. Whether you pick a 10% boost for a quick gain or a 100% for a big play, there's a Multiplier for every strategy!

1. Pick Your Master Edition

First, you need to identify which of your Master Edition NFTs is eligible. Only the original 2,500 Master Editions have this free spin attached. If you own one (or more) of these, you can select it through the Critters Quest platform—likely via your wallet or an in-game interface where your NFTs are displayed. Check your collection to confirm it's one of the originals.

2. Claim the Spin

Once you've chosen your eligible Master Edition, you'll trigger the claim process. This "unlocks" the free spin that's been waiting with that specific NFT. If the Master Edition has been sold or traded before, the spin stays with it until someone claims it—so even if you bought it secondhand, you can still use it as long as it hasn't been claimed yet.

3. Spin for Your Boost

After claiming, you get to spin! This is where the fun happens: the spin determines the boost percentage your Multiplier NFT will have. The possible tiers include standard boosts like 10%, 20%, 25%, 30%, 40%, 50%, 75%, or 100%, or—if you're really lucky—you might land a premium boost (like the Mystery NFT's 300%). The result is random, so it's a bit of a thrill to see what you'll get.

4. One and Done

Here's the key thing: once you spin, that Master Edition's free spin is used up forever. You'll get your Multiplier NFT with the boost percentage you landed, but that specific Master Edition won't have another spin available, even if you sell it later. These are also the last Multiplier NFTs that will ever be minted, making them a limited-time feature.

Quick Example

Let's say you own Master Edition #1234. You select it, claim the spin, and hit the button. The spin lands on a 50% boost. You now have a Multiplier NFT with a 50% boost in your wallet, and #1234's spin is marked as used. If you sell #1234 to someone else, they won't get a spin—it's gone for good.
