How to play
������ Welcome to Orbital Odyssey!
Orbital Odyssey is a captivating RPG game that offers an immersive gaming experience, allowing you to take control of your own character and embark on thrilling adventures in a fantastical world. As you progress through the game, you'll have the chance to strengthen and equip your character with powerful equipment. With each level you achieve, your character's skills and abilities will grow stronger, enabling you to take on even more formidable foes and overcome greater challenges.
🔄 The gameplay loop
In Orbital Odyssey you defeat opponents, participate in raids, fight duels against other players, complete quests and much more in order to level up your character, which in turn allows you to get more powerful equipment. The most important action to perform in order to progress is /attack. Every couple of levels, you'll need to move on to the next enemy using /travel. At that point, you'll also be able to open better loot chests to get better equipment!

Levels and Experience
⬆️ Leveling up
As you engage in various activities within the game, such as battling foes or engaging in duels, you will earn Experience points. Once you accumulate enough Experience, your character's level will ascend by one.

Quests, Duels and Raids
❗ Quests
You can open your current quest with /quest. Every 12 hours the quest refreshes and a new quest becomes available, which means you have 12 hours to complete your quest. Quests reward a lot of Experience, and in some cases useful items!
⚔️ Duels
Want to fight another player? Use /duel and pick who you want to challenge. They have 1 minute to accept. Duels are turn-based - choose your attacks, use abilities and items to outsmart your opponent. The winner earns a crate and XP. The loser still gets some XP. Check out /duelinfo for a full breakdown of how duels work.
⚔ Matchmaking
Use /match to find a random opponent. You can choose between Casual for a quick fight, or Ranked to compete on the ladder. You get 3 rewarded matches per day (5 for members) across duels and casual matchmaking. After that you can still play, but you will earn reduced rewards.
🏆 Ranked
Ranked matches run in seasons. Win matches to earn Ranked Points and climb the ranks, from Bronze all the way up to Orbital. The higher you climb, the better your rewards at the end of the season - including exclusive crates, avatars and titles. You can check your competitive profile anytime with /rank, or visit the Operations Log on the web dashboard. You need to be Level 15 to compete in ranked.
💀 Raids
The most powerful loot in the game can be obtained from Raids. A raid lasts 10 minutes. If you and your fellow adventurers can defeat a raid within that time you will be rewarded with very powerful loot. The rarity of your reward depends on your level and which boss is defeated. Raids can only be started by server admins. Admins can be appointed in the /adminmenu
