Homeland level-ups: wood, Home Coins and level rewards

Wood is the main bottleneck for Homeland level-ups and RV upgrades at most levels. If your progress has stalled, check your wood before you check your coins.

RV upgrades also move forward as you build. Placing furniture, farmland and woodland in the Homeland counts toward them, so laying out your space is progress in itself, not just decoration. The catch is that building leans on the same wood you need for level-ups, which is why wood runs short first.

Home Coins come from two directions. You can sell crops, surplus Homeland items and crafted goods to the co-op store, and you can complete daily, emergency and buy orders, which are the Homeland's contracts. Contracts are the recommended route. Forageable materials you gather in the overworld can also be sold for Home Coins, so what you pick up while exploring is not wasted.

The important part for planning: Home Coins are not the limiting resource for Homeland progression. From around RV level 8 onward they become easy to obtain. Early on, take the contracts and sell your surplus. After that, stop worrying about coins and put your attention on wood. Farming and passive production have their own guide on this site.

Two Homeland levels reward a Prismana egg, and both are worth pushing toward.

Reaching Homeland level 10 awards a Prismana Fenmane egg. That egg is currently the only way to obtain Prismana Fenmane, so if you want one, levelling the Homeland is the path. Reaching Homeland level 15 rewards a mysterious Prismana egg.

Because wood gates these level-ups, the practical route to both Prismana eggs is a steady wood supply rather than a pile of Home Coins.

Homeland level-ups give more than eggs. Rewards include modification kits, cosmetics, extra health and access to crafting systems. The extra health and crafting access matter outside the Homeland too, so skipping level-ups costs you more than a nicer house.

Housing component upgrades are a separate source of value. They grant passive bonuses, such as faster farm production, which feeds back into the crops you sell for Home Coins. The full breakdown of level rewards, incubators and plots lives in its own article on this site.

05Where to start

Stockpile wood first; it is what gates your Homeland and RV level-ups. Use contracts for Home Coins early and stop worrying about them once you reach around RV level 8. Push the Homeland to level 10 for the Prismana Fenmane egg, the only current source of Prismana Fenmane, and on to level 15 for the mysterious Prismana egg.
