Overview

Reward Tiers provide a long-term progression path beyond levels, combining your total achievements—XP earned, badges collected, streaks maintained, and contributions made—into an elite status system that unlocks exclusive benefits and recognition.


What Are Reward Tiers?

Tier System Overview

Unlike levels (which can decrease with decay), tiers are permanent achievements that recognize your cumulative contribution to D4D. Think of them as your "lifetime rank" in the system.

Key Differences from Levels:

  • ✅ Tiers never decrease (permanent)
  • ✅ Based on multiple achievement types
  • ✅ Unlock exclusive features
  • ✅ Rare and prestigious
  • ✅ Visible status symbol

How Tiers Work:

  1. Earn Tier Points from various activities
  2. Accumulate points across all time
  3. Reach thresholds to unlock new tiers
  4. Enjoy benefits and recognition
  5. Work toward next tier
