How you are ranked
Once a day, at a different time each day, everyone's place on the Hall of Aura leaderboard is recorded. Your Awards place is the average of all those daily places, so climbing early and staying near the top is what counts, not one lucky day. Days outside the top 50 count as 51st, so you can still join in now and climb your way into the prizes.
The Awards tab in the Hall of Aura shows the countdown, the standings and your own Awards place, with every resident's aura, items, sealed boxes and trophies, just like the main leaderboard.
How to raise your aura
Your aura is your score in the Hall of Aura. Four things build it:
- Your collection. Every WUD Universe item adds points by its stars, and the rarest pieces add the most. Sealed Mystery Boxes and your cabin count too.
- Your $WUD boost. Holding $WUD on Asset Hub or Hydration boosts your whole collection.
- Your $DOT boost. Holding $DOT in the same wallet boosts it again.
- Your trophies. Every trophy you earn adds aura on top, and you keep it for good.
Trophies
There are hundreds of trophies to earn: collecting items, opening Mystery Boxes, making friends, sending letters and gifts, decorating your cabin, holding $WUD and $DOT, OG WUD BURN cards and more. Common trophies add 25 aura, Rare 100, Epic 300 and Legendary 1,000. The Trophies tab shows every one and how close you are.
Where to find Mystery Boxes
More boxes means more items and more aura, and a sealed box counts toward your aura before you even open it.
- The WUD Universe Marketplace: pick up Mystery Boxes from other residents.
- Flappy WUD: cabin owners can find a Flappy WUD Mystery Box while they fly. The further you go, the better your chances.
- Grid Miner: cabin owners can find a Grid Miner Mystery Box deep in the mine as they finish objective tiers.
- More on the way: new ways to find boxes are coming through the winter.
The dates
The Winter Aura Awards run from November 1, 2026 to February 1, 2027. After that, the Awards close every year on February 1, May 1, August 1 and November 1.
