Complete Earth2 Essence (ESS) Guide

Earth2 Essence (ESS) is the platform’s utility token. You earn ESS by playing: from land (E-ther conversion), jewels, crafting and gameplay. ESS can be used in-game (e.g. upgrading jewels, land upgrades), staked, or withdrawn to your wallet and traded (e.g. on Uniswap). For live price and chart, see our ESS page.

Earning Essence is tied to your land and activity:

• Land & E-ther: Properties generate E-ther, which can be converted to ESS. Higher-tier land and good jewel setups improve output. See tile tiers and jewels.
• Jewels: Slot jewels on your tiles and use Mentars for detection. Better jewels and 100% detection help maximize E-ther and Essence. Browse all jewels.
• Crafting & resources: Crafting and resource gathering can contribute to ESS-earning loops. Explore crafting and raw materials.
• Raiding: CyDroids and civilians can raid nearby properties for E-ther. Check CyDroids and civilians.

ESS can be staked for rewards, withdrawn to an external wallet (e.g. MetaMask), or spent in-game on upgrades and land features. Earth2 has also used ESS burn mechanics for land upgrades and other features—check official Earth2 news and E2 University news for the latest.
