NOCTRA GAME GUIDE

They came from the void. Alien invaders tore through Earth's defenses in hours. Cities fell. Governments collapsed. Years later, survivors scavenge alien technology, fighting mutated creatures and each other in the wasteland.

NOCTRA is a browser-based text MMORPG. Create a character, choose a class, explore 60 zones across 6 areas, fight enemies, collect gear, complete quests, join crews, climb the leaderboard, and eventually take the fight to the alien homeworld.

All progress saves to your account. Play on any device — desktop, phone, tablet.

Manual Combat: Click Hunt or Boss to start a fight. You see enemy HP, your HP, and energy. Click Attack for basic hits, or use class skills that cost energy. Energy regenerates +1 per turn.

Auto-Attack: Toggle auto-attack to grind automatically. Server resolves fights instantly. Stops at 20 HP. Set a loot filter to auto-sell low rarity drops.

Critical Hits: LUCK determines crit chance. Crits deal 2x damage.

Death: Respawn at 50% HP. No permanent penalties.

Inventory Cap: 30 items max. When full, lowest-rarity unlocked items auto-sell to make room.

Gear drops from enemies, quests, crafting, and the shop. 6 equipment slots: Weapon, Head, Body, Shield, Ring, Boots.

Inventory Management: Use the rarity dropdown to bulk-sell items at a chosen rarity and below. Lock valuable items to protect them. Equipped items can never be sold.

Legendary, Alien, and Void rarity items that drop in specific areas can be part of a gear set. Collect pieces of the same set to unlock powerful bonuses. Each set has 6 pieces (one per slot) with two bonus tiers:

• 3-Piece Bonus — Equip any 3 pieces from the same set
• 6-Piece Bonus — Equip all 6 pieces for the full effect

Set bonus stats scale with your level, so they stay relevant as you progress. Individual piece stats still roll randomly — farm for perfect rolls!

The Rift has a 20% chance to drop any set piece from any area, making it the best place to complete collections.

Combine lower-rarity items to forge higher-rarity gear in the Craft tab.

Buy consumables, crates, and XP scrolls. Consumables are stored in your bag (max 1000 each) and used in combat or from inventory. Crates and scrolls are limited to 10 per purchase.

Consumables

XP Scrolls (Gold Sink — 10c per 1 XP)

Crates

Earn 1 skill point per level. Spend points to permanently boost stats. No cap — keep upgrading forever.

At Level 260 and after defeating Emperor Xyr'athis, you can Prestige — reset to Level 1 with a permanent +2% bonus to ALL base stats per prestige level.

You keep: items, credits, achievements, profile cosmetics. You lose: level, skill points, skill tree progress.

Accept one quest at a time. Complete by killing enemies in the specified zone. Rewards: EXP, credits, and a rare item. There are zone kill quests, boss kill quests, and global kill quests across all 6 areas.

Attack other players to steal their XP and credits. 3 attacks per player per day — you can attack everyone 3 times each, not 3 total.

Card Backgrounds

Change your game UI color in Settings. Your theme applies everywhere — game, profiles, forums, guide. 9 themes available:

Alien Green (default), Void Blue, Blood Red, Void Purple, Imperial Gold, Xenotech Cyan, Rift Pink, Ghost White, Midnight Dark (for eye strain/night sessions)

It came without warning. Every device on Earth broadcast the same signal — a low, pulsing tone that vibrated in the bones of every living creature. Scientists called it "The Noctra Frequency." Fourteen hours later, the sky split open.

Aliens poured through tears in reality. First the drones, then the soldiers, then the Harvesters. In seventy-two hours, sixty percent of humanity was gone. The survivors scattered into the ruins, fighting for survival in a world that no longer belonged to them.

You are one of those survivors. Your journey takes you from the ruins of the Wasteland, through frozen tundra and drowned cities, into the burning core of the Earth, up to hijacked space stations, and finally through a rift to the alien homeworld itself — Xyr'athis Prime, where Emperor Xyr'athis has ruled for ten thousand years.

Those who defeat the Emperor and choose to Prestige step into the Rift willingly, allowing it to unmake and rebuild them stronger. The aliens call these warriors "Kyr'vash" — the ones who refuse to stay dead.
