The NODE System is StormCore’s long-term progression layer. Every action you complete inside the ecosystem can earn NODE, increase your level, unlock new protocols, and raise your prestige across StormStruggle.

How the NODE System works (Player Guide)

1) Earn NODE: You gain NODE by participating in StormCore experiences (Appz, challenges, events, quests, and ecosystem activities). Your total NODE is your long-term score.

2) Your Level updates automatically: StormCore converts your total NODE into a Level. The progression is designed to last years (Level 1–40), so milestones feel meaningful and long-term.

3) Multipliers & progression boosts: As your level rises, your multiplier increases (up to ~x6.1 by Level 40). Special phase bonuses can apply (e.g., double XP weekends early on, mentoring bonuses mid-game, leadership bonuses later).

4) Unlock Protocols, tools, and roles: NODE levels progressively unlock features (guilds, mentoring, marketplace, tournaments, beta access, staking, partnerships, governance) and prestige roles for top community members.

5) Long-term journey: Most players will naturally progress over months and years. Consistency (daily activity + streaks) is the fastest way to climb.

Levels & Titles: Each level comes with a title (Rookie → Elite → Immortal → Eternal → StormCore God). The higher you climb, the more your presence matters in the ecosystem.

Multipliers: As you level up, your multiplier increases (up to ~x6.1 by Level 40). This means your actions become more valuable as your profile evolves.

Phases: The journey is split into four phases: Beginner (1–10), Intermediate (11–20), Advanced (21–30), and Legendary (31–40). Each phase introduces new unlocks and higher prestige.

Leaderboards: Rankings can be displayed daily/weekly/monthly to spotlight the most active players. Compete, climb, and become part of StormCore history.

Unlock roadmap (Levels 1–40)

Levels 1–10 (Foundations): learn the ecosystem, stabilize your daily routine, and unlock early progression perks. Key unlocks include full leaderboard visibility (Level 5), guild creation (Level 8), and mentoring access (Level 10).

Levels 11–20 (Expansion): gain influence and community tools. Unlock the NODE Marketplace (Level 12), private tournaments (Level 15), beta testing access (Level 18), and community advisory status (Level 20).
