Rates, burning maps & NX
How EXP, drops and mesos are calculated on Eden, how burning maps work, and where free NX comes from.
On this page 6 sections
Eden's rates are set in the server's own config. The numbers on this page are read live from it.
The base rates#
| Rate | Notes | |
|---|---|---|
| Monster EXP | x6 | x1 below level 10, so class tutorials aren't skipped |
| Quest EXP | x1 | Same as GMS. Early quests are still very worth it. |
| Item drops | x2 | Applies to every drop, bosses included |
| Mesos | x3 | Applies to meso drops from monsters |
| Burning maps | up to +100% | Bonus EXP on quiet maps, see below |
| Monsters per map | x1.5 | Maps refill to more monsters than they have spawn points |
| Monster HP | same as GMS | No regional HP or EXP multipliers since 14 October 2026 |
How drops stack#
The drop rate multiplies every chance in a monster's drop table. Your own drop-rate gear and drop coupons multiply on top: a 2x coupon at x2 server rate doubles again.
Since 18 October 2026, an item's chance stops at 87% after every multiplier, so no item becomes a guaranteed drop. Mesos, quest items, boss Intense Power Crystals and Elite Medals of Honor are exempt and keep their full chance.
Mesos work the same way with meso-rate gear and coupons.
The Library shows every drop chance with Eden's rates already applied. Search an item to see which monsters drop it and how often.
Burning maps#
Every hunting map has a burning stage from 0 to 20. Each stage adds +5% EXP, so a fully burning map gives +100% on top of the x6 rate.
- Maps start fully burning.
- While players hunt a map, it loses one stage every 15 minutes.
- While a map is empty, it climbs back up.
So quiet maps pay best. If your map has burned down, a nearby map with the same monsters is often still at full stage.
Runes and the EXP curse#
Runes appear on hunting maps. Activating one gives you a buff. Leaving one alone curses the map, and its EXP drops the longer the rune sits there. See Runes.
Auto Battle rewards#
Kills made by Auto Battle (@ac) give 75% of the normal EXP and drops and 40% of the normal mesos. It's a trade: less per kill, but your character keeps fighting while you do something else.
NX from monsters#
You don't need to donate for NX: every kill drops NX straight into your account, and higher-level monsters give more. About 65 NX for an Arcana monster, so a good hour of hunting there pays a few hundred thousand NX. A rune curse on the map lowers it too, so activate those runes.
NX pays for the Cash Shop and for Fredrick's workshop's cubing.
