Expeditions
Expeditions are a push-your-luck exploration system where fleets progress through increasing depths, encounter events, and choose whether to extract or continue.
Unlike passive missions, expeditions involve decision-making at each depth and risk escalation.
Source system design: Expedition System Design Document

| Realm 4+ | Depth 7–10 (Legendary) |
Base Loot Formula
baseLoot = nodeType.baseReward depthMultiplier = [1.0, 1.5, 2.5] // D1, D2, D3 eventBonus = 1.0 – 2.0 explorerBonus = 1.15 if Explorer finalLoot = baseLoot × depthMultiplier × eventBonus × explorerBonus
Loot is also affected by:
Node State (Charged or Dormant)
Rally multipliers (Realm 2+)
Fleet cargo capacity
