✧ Astral Nugget Now Live ✧

The second component on the path to Astral Paint has surfaced in the Hive.

Rumor says Hive Gatekeepers have begun carrying it.

Astral Nugget

Source: Hunting Drop

A shimmering stone pulsating gently with radiant pink and crimson hues. Its smooth surface feels warm and comforting, resonating softly in your palm as though it whispers hidden secrets of distant realms.

Collect it alongside Astral Bloom—the final component, Astral Essence, launches soon.

✧ New Astral Components ✧

Astral Bloom is now live in the Hive and marks the next step on the path to crafting Astral Paint.

Astral Essence and Astral Nugget will unlock later this week.

Smaller sub-components will appear across various parts of the game in future updates.

Current sell-back value for each completed component: 1,000c (may increase in future).

Astral Bloom

Cost: 45,000 Warfare Points – Available Now

A luminous flower with petals like translucent silk, shifting through ethereal blues, purples, and golds. At its heart pulses a gentle golden glow, radiating a serene warmth and an aura of otherworldly beauty and tranquility.

Astral Essence

Availability: Unlocks later this week

A fine yet dense powder of deep indigo and purple, cohesive as if held by unseen forces. When handled, it emits faint sparks of astral energy, once used by seers and mystics to part the veil and peer into realms unseen.

Astral Nugget

Availability: Unlocks later this week

A shimmering stone pulsating gently with radiant pink and crimson hues. Its smooth surface feels warm and comforting, resonating softly in your palm as though it whispers hidden secrets of distant realms.

Gather these components to progress toward Astral Paint—and stay tuned for additional drops and an increased sell-back value in the future.

✧ The Path to Astral ✧

They say no one just finds Astral Paint.

You become the kind of player who earns it.

It starts in the dust of the Wasteland. Every step, every skirmish, every point earned in blood brings you closer.

Most stop there—thinking control is enough. But that’s just one path.

Then come the Raids. You show up, pull your weight, fight side by side with the few who still care about the grind.

Somewhere in the rhythm of victory, another piece reveals itself.

Still, it’s not enough.

So you hunt. Out where the Hive creatures roam and the loot is light, you stay anyway.

It’s not for the points—it’s for the one that matters. And when it shows, you’ll know.

Even then, Astral stays just out of reach.

But if you’ve kept at it—really kept at it—you’ll notice something.

A quiet signal, a moment you’ve seen before but never looked at too closely.

A Boon, earned without warning.

Do enough. Be everywhere.

And eventually, the blueprint finds you.

Astral Paint can’t be rushed.

It waits for those who do it all.

If you’re asking where to begin…

Start where you usually don’t.

*The full path to Astral Paint will reveal itself in time.

Pieces are already in place—but not all doors have opened yet.*

Yes, graphics have been completed.


Yes, Astral Paint is technically in the game now.


But is that the full release? Is this the final stage?
