During your time in Blockgame, you'll come across various gear that may not serve your immediate needs. However, there's no need to worry. Tools, weapons, and armors can all be salvaged or dismantled, yielding essence as a result. It's worth noting that salvaging corrupted gear is the sole method of obtaining [[Corrupted Essence]]. To salvage items, you'll need to purchase a [[Salvage Kit]] from the NPC [[Forge]]. In your inventory, first left-click on your [[Salvage Kit]] to select it, then right-click on the piece of gear you wish to salvage. It's essential to exercise caution, as there's no further prompt once the action is initiated. Therefore, ensure that you're selecting only items you genuinely intend to dismantle. | During your time in Blockgame, you'll come across various gear that may not serve your immediate needs.

==<u>Quests</u>== | |||
Quests serve as a key gameplay mechanic in Blockgame, offering players the opportunity to explore the world and earn rewards by completing specific tasks. Currently, the most common type of quest is the '[https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/fetch_quest Fetch Quests]', where players must obtain one or multiple specified items and deliver them to the quest-giver or another designated NPC. | |||
Among the various quests available, [[Daily Quests]] are particularly prominent. To initiate a [[Daily Quests|Daily Quest]], players need to obtain an [[Origin Daily Quest Token]], which can be exchanged with [[Mayor McCheese]] for a Quest Item. Once acquired, players can activate the quest by holding the item in their hand and right-clicking. The quest details will then be displayed at the top of the screen. It's important to note that only one quest can be active at a time, and activating a new quest will overwrite the current one. | |||
To complete a quest, players must deliver the required item to the specified NPC and right-click on the NPC while holding the item. As a reward for completing a Daily Quest, players typically receive 500 coins directly deposited into their personal bank, along with 5000 Class EXP and 10000 Profession EXP. | |||
Quests are not only a valuable source of experience points (EXP) but also offer early-game coin acquisition opportunities. Don't forget to collect your [[Origin Daily Quest Token]] daily after the daily reset! | |||
