Question 1

How much TLM can I mine per day in Alien Worlds?

Accepted Answer

Daily TLM earnings in Alien Worlds vary significantly based on your tools, land choice, and mining frequency. With basic tools like the Standard Shovel (80-second cooldown), active miners can complete hundreds of mines per day. However, actual TLM per mine depends on the planet's mining pot, land multipliers, and the 20% default landowner commission. Realistic daily earnings for casual players with common tools range from 1-10 TLM, while dedicated miners with rare/epic tools may earn more. Use our calculator above to estimate your specific setup.

Question 2

What are the best mining tools in Alien Worlds?

Accepted Answer

The best Alien Worlds mining tools depend on your strategy. Tools have four key stats: Mining Power (TLM rewards), NFT Luck (chance of NFT drops), Charge Time (cooldown between mines, ranging from ~80 seconds to 2+ hours), and Proof of Work. For TLM farming, high Mining Power tools like Capacitors and Drills are popular. For NFT hunting, prioritize NFT Luck stats. New players start with a free Standard Shovel. Popular upgrades include Standard Drill, Standard Capacitor, and rare tools like the Draxos series. Higher rarity tools (Rare, Epic, Legendary, Mythical) have better stats but cost more.

Question 3

How do land commission rates work in Alien Worlds?

Accepted Answer

In Alien Worlds, landowners set a commission rate (percentage of TLM mined) that miners must pay. The default commission is 20%, but landowners can set it anywhere from 0% to 100%. Many competitive lands offer 1-5% commission to attract more miners. When you mine, the landowner receives their commission percentage, and you keep the rest plus any NFT drops. Only 3,343 land NFTs exist across all 6 planets, making land ownership rare and valuable. Check land commission rates in-game before mining to maximize your earnings.

Question 4

Is Alien Worlds free to play?

Accepted Answer

Yes, Alien Worlds is free to play. New players receive a free Standard Shovel tool to start mining immediately. You'll need a WAX Cloud Wallet (free to create) to play. While the game is free, purchasing better tools and NFTs can increase your mining efficiency and earnings. The game runs on the WAX, Ethereum, and Binance Smart Chain blockchains. Note that WAX network transactions may require CPU/NET resources, which can be obtained for free or rented.

Question 5

How do mining cooldowns work in Alien Worlds?

Accepted Answer

Mining cooldowns (called 'Charge Time') determine how long you must wait between mining attempts. Cooldowns are calculated from your equipped tools and the land type. The Standard Shovel has approximately 80 seconds cooldown, while more powerful tools may have cooldowns ranging from 15 minutes to over 2 hours. You can equip up to 3 tools, and the cooldown formula uses the highest tool cooldowns. Shorter cooldowns mean more mines per day but often less TLM per mine. Additionally, there's a 72-hour cooldown for claiming accumulated mining rewards.

Question 6

What affects TLM mining rewards in Alien Worlds?

Accepted Answer

TLM mining rewards in Alien Worlds are determined by multiple factors: (1) Planet Mining Pot - each of the 6 planets has a daily TLM allocation that's shared among miners; (2) Land Type - different land types (Rocky Desert, Mushroom Forest, Geothermal Springs, etc.) have different TLM multipliers; (3) Tool Mining Power - higher power tools mine more TLM; (4) Land Commission - landowners take a percentage (default 20%) of your mining rewards; (5) Competition - more miners on a planet means the pot is split among more players. Planet DAOs also vote on how to allocate their Trilium rewards.

Question 7

How many planets are in Alien Worlds and which is best for mining?

Accepted Answer

Alien Worlds has 6 planets: Eyeke, Kavian, Magor, Naron, Neri, and Veles. Each planet is a Decentralized Autonomous Organization (DAO) with its own governance, daily TLM allocation, and land types. There's no single 'best' planet - it depends on current mining pot sizes, land availability, commission rates, and competition levels. Planets receive daily Trilium from the Federation, and their elected Custodians decide how to allocate rewards. Check current planet statistics in-game to find the best mining opportunities, as conditions change based on player activity and DAO decisions.
