# Challenges

{% columns %}
{% column width="58.333333333333336%" %}
Challenges are rotating server-wide objectives where players compete to earn <img src="https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/1169443802801520752.webp?size=128" alt=":token:" data-size="line">**Challenge Credits** across Hourly, Daily, Weekly, and Monthly leaderboards through the `/challenges` menu.

Each leaderboard has its own tasks, rankings, reset timer, and rewards. Completing a qualifying action can progress the same task across multiple leaderboards at the same time, allowing active players to compete for frequent short-term payouts while also building toward larger weekly and monthly rewards.

{% endcolumn %}
{% endcolumns %}

## Tasks

At the start of each challenge window, 3 tasks are randomly selected for that leaderboard. Some objectives may include a specific target. For example, instead of a generic mining objective, the task may require players to break a specific block type.

{% hint style="info" %}
Some tasks may be excluded from certain windows if they are not suitable for Hourly, Daily, Weekly, or Monthly competition.
{% endhint %}

## Leaderboards

Each active task has its own leaderboard. Players are ranked by the number of times they completed that task during the active window. If multiple players have the same completion count when the challenge window is over, the player who reached that completion count first ranks higher.

## Challenge Credits

Challenge Credits are a persistent currency that can be spent in `/challenges shop`. When a leaderboard resets, ranked players are automatically awarded <img src="https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/1169443802801520752.webp?size=128" alt=":token:" data-size="line">**Challenge Credits** based on their final placement for each task.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## 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.apexcobblemon.com/features/player/challenges.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.
