//Resource Economy

The economy of nu-Eden is brutal and resource-scarce, split between the regulated Corporate Credisys and an underground bartering network.

▸The Credisys Framework

The primary corporate currency, "Credits" (CR), are highly regulated and tracked.

• ▪Primary Uses: Purchasing standard ammunition, common health injectors, and baseline operative gear from city-layer vendors.
• ▪Acquisition: Earned via official nERF bounties, hacking secure terminals, and corporate requisition rewards.

▸Maborite Extraction

Raw Maborite is entirely illegal to trade without Board authorization, making it the de-facto black market currency.

• ▪Raw Maborite: Found in hostile zones, extracted from fallen Aberrants, or stolen from C.I.D.E. supply trains. Can be used as a volatile power source or traded to Syndicate fences.
• ▪Refined Maborite: Processed at Safehouse benches. Used exclusively for Exotic Weapon Mods and high-tier Augmenta crafting.

▸Faction Reputation & Levies

Some vendors do not accept CR or Maborite; they demand "Reputation" or specific favors.

Levies: Crossing between distinct map layers often requires submitting a "Levy" (a tax paid in CR or specific resources) unless the player chooses to fight their way through heavily fortified transit gates.
