Quick answers about Base Arena
What is Base Arena?
Base Arena is a PvP game on the Base blockchain. You create a fighter, train with a bot or fight other players in leagues, and win ETH from the pot. Character stats, items, and battles are handled by smart contracts; we don’t hold your funds or private keys.
What do I need to play?
A wallet that supports Base (e.g. MetaMask, Coinbase Wallet, Rabby). Make sure you’re on Base Mainnet. You’ll need a little ETH for gas and for in-game actions (training, healing, opening chests, league entry).
How do I create a character?
Click Play, accept the Terms and Privacy Policy, choose a name and avatar, then connect your wallet. Complete one training battle (small ETH fee) to finish setup and enter the main game.
How do battles work?
Each round you pick an attack zone (Head, Body, Legs) and a defense zone. Same zone = block. Head gives more crit, legs more accuracy; body is neutral. You commit your move, then reveal; the contract resolves the round. Winner takes 90% of the stake.
What are the leagues?
Bronze (0.002 ETH), Silver (0.005), Gold (0.01), Diamond (0.025), Divine (0.05 ETH) per player. You enter a league that matches your level and fight count. Winner takes 90% of the combined pot.
What is ARNA?
ARNA is the in-game token on Base. You earn it from fights, leaderboard rewards, and referrals. Use it to buy Simple and Legendary chests that contain random NFT equipment (weapons, helmet, armor, boots) with stat bonuses.
How do chests work?
You get chests from fights, referrals, and sometimes as rewards. Open Simple chests for a small ETH fee; Legendary costs more and has better loot. Opening gives a random item (rarity and stats vary). Items can be equipped to boost your fighter.
Is my wallet safe?
We never ask for your seed phrase or private keys. You sign transactions in your wallet (MetaMask, etc.); the game only reads your address and sends tx requests. Contracts are verified on Basescan. Always confirm you’re on Base Mainnet and on the official site base-arena.online.
What is “Train with Bot”?
A practice fight against a bot. You pay a small ETH fee, play round by round (attack/defense zones), and at the end submit the result in one transaction. Good for learning the mechanics and earning XP without PvP stakes.
How do I heal my fighter?
If your HP is low, use Restore HP (Heal) in the Character or Fight tab. It costs a small amount of ETH and restores your fighter to full HP so you can battle again.
Referral / invite friends?
In the game, open the Invite friends section and copy your link. When a friend registers and completes their first bot or arena battle, you receive one Simple Chest. They must open your link before registering.
When is Bar Fight available?
Bar Fight (multi-player last-man-standing mode) is planned for a future update. Leagues, training, and PvP are available now.
Seasons and leaderboard rewards?
Seasons last 150 days. Top 5 in each league win ARNA at the end of the season; 1st place in each league also wins ETH (from 0.1 ETH in Bronze up to 1 ETH in Divine). Leaderboard updates at least once per day.
