# Chainmon Traits

Traits are special effects and modifiers that Chainmons can have. They enhance the individual Chainmon by giving an extra effect in certain situations like battling or being generally better at farming or crafting that their peers. Not all traits are necessarily on the positive side though and can have a negative impact on their performance.

IF a Chainmon is lucky to be bestowed by a trait, then they come in different tiers of quality:

* Tier 1: Basic effect quality/strength and impact.
* Tier 2: Enhanced effect quality/strength and good impact.
* Tier 3: Exceptional effect quality/strength and great impact if used strategically.

## Types of Traits <a href="#chainmontraits-typesoftraits" id="chainmontraits-typesoftraits"></a>

### Battle <a href="#chainmontraits-battle" id="chainmontraits-battle"></a>

* Battle traits are exclusively used in battles, triggering certain active or passive effects when attacking or being attacked. Some battle traits are on the passive side, e.g. only active while holding off in your squad while recovering health points.

### Farming <a href="#chainmontraits-farming" id="chainmontraits-farming"></a>

* Exclusively used as means of influencing their performance in farming-related activities. Some Chainmons appear to be born with two left hands!

### Crafting <a href="#chainmontraits-crafting" id="chainmontraits-crafting"></a>

* Whenever you are crafting/enhancing or building, the speed of that process is greatly dependent on the assigned Chainmon.

### Training <a href="#chainmontraits-training" id="chainmontraits-training"></a>

* Different species gain experience and levels quicker than others. Same if they are born with traits that influence that process.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://wiki.chainmonsters.com/game-mechanics/chainmons/chainmon-traits.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
