# Upgrades Upgrades are NFT assets that permanently enhance a camera’s characteristics when installed in a corresponding socket (as described in the Camera Types section). Each upgrade targets a specific characteristic, providing players with a way to customize their cameras for better performance in quests. **Upgrade Types** **Camera Sensor:** Increases the Lens characteristic, boosting $PICTO token rewards from quests. **Tripod:** Enhances the Streak Power characteristic, improving the quality of streak rewards (cases). **Camera Case:** Improves the Cleanability characteristic, reducing the $PICTO token cost for cleaning. **Upgrade Rarity**\ Upgrades come in five rarity tiers, with higher rarities providing greater enhancements to the corresponding characteristic **Acquiring Upgrades** \ Upgrades can be obtained in several ways: purchased on NFT marketplaces, earned from cases (either as complete upgrades or fragments). **Installation and Extraction** \ Upgrades can be installed into a camera’s sockets that match their type (e.g., a Camera Sensor requires a Lens socket). **Market Listing Restrictions** \ Cameras with installed upgrades cannot be listed on NFT marketplaces. Players must extract all upgrades before listing a camera for sale. --- # Agent Instructions: 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.
