# Crates & Items

Crates are purchasable loot boxes in Ethermax that yield items of varying rarities, from common to legendary, essential for upgrading monsters. Players spend $MAXX to acquire crates, which may contain boosters, evolution materials, or exclusive perks. This system introduces randomness and excitement, encouraging repeated engagement while tying into deflationary tokenomics through burns on purchases, balancing accessibility with scarcity for long-term player investment.

* Crates items and attacks are required for competitive play.
* Items and attacks can be bought and sold on the in-game marketplace.
* Mint Crates in-game burning $MAXX. There is no limit.
