Mecha World: How to set up your Mecha and start Questing?

Edit: This article was rewritten on January 25th 2023 to reflect recent UI updates.

With a lot of complex elements to Mecha World’s gameplay and structure, it might be a bit rough to find your way through all the different steps needed to setup your Mecha’s. Here’s a little guide to help you out!

When you log into the game, you first see the dashboard with a basic overview of the tournament leaderboard or the latet news. The menu to navigate through the game is on the top of the page.

The best overview of your Mecha’s and their stats can be found under the MECHAS tab. Here we see this account owns 5 Mecha’s. Each Mecha earns 0.25 Energy points per hour (capped at 2 points per hour) to pay the energy-cost for questing. But before you can enable this energy-earning you first need to register your Mecha to your account. This is a safety measure avoid exploitation of the energy system.

To register your mecha, you’ll see a button REGISTER right under the picture. After you handled this process with a quick WAX verification, your Mecha can now collect energy points for your collective energy pool. Once energy points have accumulated, you can claim these by clicking your energy meter (see red circle in the screenshot).

Mecha’s that are already registered will show the text “AVAILABLE” on their info card. You can then decide to send it on a Short, Medium or Long quest (see #1 in the screenshot below). Each quest type has different energy-cost and duration so make sure you don’t try to spend more energy points than you have. #2 Shows a selected Mecha. And #3 shows where you have to click to sign a blockchain transaction to send these Mechas away.

Only when you have sufficient energy you can deploy Mecha’s to go on Quests. With a pack of 8 Mecha’s you reach an optimum earning of 2 Energy Points per hour. But nothing’s stopping you from owning even more Mecha’s, so feel free to go crazy on your collection :)

Once your Mecha’s are done questing, they’ll show a CLAIM button (see #1 in the screenshot below). You can sign off multiple claims at once (like #2) in 1 single blockchain interaction (click the button at #3).

When Quest results are claimed you’ll get to see a popup like the one below. Notice that sometimes the blockchain interactions are slow and it might tell you you found 0 FGL several times in a row. When this seems unlikely, you can always do a doublecheck of your blockchain interactions at bloks.io.

To help you identify what all the information on screen means, here’s a quick recap:

1. Mecha type (FLAX is the type. SCARLET is the color), it’s unique NFT number, the Rarity (only cosmetic, no in-game advantages for rarity), current level and Mecha species (We only have Canines for now. Others may be added later).
2. XP Meter. You earn XP by Questing and Battling. When the meter is full you may level up by paying a sum of FGL Tokens.
3. If the Mecha has any Parts fitted, a brief summary is shown here of the amount of parts fitted and their condition. The green text will turn to orange to warn you when some parts are in bad shape and need repair. The text will turn red when parts have broken down.
4. Indicating the Mecha’s Luck (increases with more Parts fitted) and the Battery Efficiency (if the Mecha has a Battery fitted).
5. Click this button to see a more detailed overview of the types of parts your Mecha has fitted and what condition each part is in. This will also take you to the screen where you can fit additional parts to your Mecha. See screenshot below.
6. Repair button. Be sure to repair your Mecha’s Parts before they are completely broken and turn red.
