Merging and Stars

Caught a duplicate? That's not a spare, that's progress. Merging feeds copies of a species into one Elemixie to raise its stars, and stars raise its level cap.

What Stars Do

• Every Elemixie starts at 1 star, with a level cap of 10.
• Each star raises the cap by 10: 2 stars is level 20, up to 5 stars and level 50.
• Higher stars also make the creature visibly bigger. A 5-star Elemixie stands a quarter taller than a fresh catch.

How to Merge

1. Open your backpack and switch on Merge mode.
2. Tap the Elemixie you want to keep. It gets the blue checkmark and a little role tag: this is your keeper.
3. Tap duplicates of the same species to merge in. They get green checkmarks.
4. Confirm. The green ones melt into the blue one: their XP flows in, its star progress climbs, and your keeper stays exactly who it was. Same name, same role, same everything.

The rule of thumb: blue stays, green goes in. So if two of your duplicates have different roles, tap the one whose role you want to keep first.

You can feed many duplicates in one merge and jump several stars at once. The confirm screen warns you if you have selected more than the next steps need, so nothing is wasted by accident. Merging costs no coins; the duplicates are the price.

Merge Costs

Rarer species need fewer copies per star:

The last column counts every copy you'll need, including the one you keep. A 5-star common is a real grind; a 5-star mythic needs five miracles.

Worth Knowing

• Wild Elemixies always arrive at 1 star. Merging is the only way to earn stars.
• Locked Elemixies and busy ones (foraging, training, battling, mixing, trading) cannot be merged either way.
• Merging pairs well with mixing, but mind the star rule: a mix follows the parent with less merge progress. Parents with equal stars carry them through just fine; mismatched parents drop to the lower side. The confirm screen warns you before any stars would be lost.
