# Residuum Residuum is the core resource driving progression in the Warped Universe. Collected during missions, Residuum serves as the foundation for advancing both individual player growth and the progression of the Warped Universe itself. This versatile resource is critical to shaping the Warped Universe, connecting every mission to meaningful outcomes. ### **Individual Use: Empowering Player Progression** Residuum empowers players to shape their journey through the Warped Universe: * **End-of-Mission Rewards:** Residuum can be allocated at the end of missions to obtain rewards, such as Nexite, Sparks, Artifractal Cores, or Battle Pass XP. * **In-Mission Utility:** Players can use Residuum to amplify certain skills, enabling strategic advantages in critical moments, or transmute it into ammunition during emergencies. This dual-purpose presents players with meaningful choices: Should you use the Residuum you collect to gain immediate advantages in a mission, or save it for post-mission rewards, and your long-term growth? Note: Residuum cannot be stored or carried over between missions. Residuum collected can only be used during the mission or at its conclusion. ### **Collective Use: Advancing the Warped Universe** Residuum also fuels the broader development of the Warped Universe: * **Building New Planets and Facilities:** At the Nexus Station, Residuum powers the creation of new planets and facilities, shaping the evolving gameplay by influencing the overall metagame. For example, constructing a new research lab might unlock new technology, providing access to advanced equipment or powerful upgrades, enhancing gameplay strategies for all players. * **Strengthening Community Goals:** As a shared resource, Residuum ensures that every mission contributes to the collective progress of all players. Large-scale projects, such as building new planets and facilities, will require a specific amount of Residuum collected across all missions. These shared objectives will foster collaboration and motivate the community to work together toward the advancement of the Warped Universe. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
