Laboratory
What to do here?
Hello Scholarz! We hope you’re doing well during this bear market.
Remember Skoolverse? Have you upgraded your lands and built your houses? It is time for another structure: Laboratory.
This medium post will tell you all about it: what is laboratory, what it does, and how to build one.
What is laboratory?
Laboratory is the 2nd structure in Skoolverse. Just like any other laboratory, you can build stuff and run experiments. But, what kind of stuff you can build here?
What does it do?
Remember Scholarz Candidates? This is the 2nd collection of Scholarz, after Genesis. We are going to launch this collection in a few weeks, but it is not going to be a direct mint.
In order to mint a Candidate, you need to gather all necessary parts. There will be 6 traits, 3 of them are mandatory to create a Candidate, 2 is optional, and 1 is randomly assigned.
Laboratory allows you to choose a trait and create a random part of that trait using some $EXP. It also acts as a storage to keep the parts you have created. You can burn these parts or sell them to other users for some $EXP in our marketplace, especially if you get unwanted or duplicate parts.
If your laboratory is full, you cannot create another part. You need to upgrade your laboratory or build additional laboratory on another land.
Parts are tied to laboratory. If you sell a land with laboratory, you will lose all parts stored inside the laboratory.
You can only create parts in active laboratories, just like active houses with endowment funds. Similarly, only parts in active laboratories are usable (e.g. can be used to craft a candidate).
How to build one?
Building any structure requires a space on your land. To increase the space of your land, you need to increase its level.
- Level 0 land has 0 space, you can’t build any structure
- Level 1 land has 1 space, you can build either a house or a laboratory
- Level 2 land has 2 spaces, allows you to build both house and laboratory
You can only build one of each structure on each land.
But why do we need a Candidate? What can it be used for?
Having a Scholarz Candidate gives you access to our upcoming learning and gaming platform. There is also the concept of scholarship which requires Candidates at its core. More details about this will be revealed later.
There will be some time for you to accumulate $EXP to build laboratory before this update goes live, so it would be wise to start saving up from now. You can start building laboratory after our land UI revamp goes live, which should be ready in a few days.
We hope this post gives you a general idea about laboratory and everything about it! Please ask any questions in our Discord.
