# IMX to LORDCHAIN

## 🔷 IMX → LORDCHAIN

Due to limitations of the IMX network, heroes must be imported in-game before being exported to LORDCHAIN. This guide walks you through the entire process step by step.\
Check the video guide [here](https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/16BnYxTUDcpX0KeB6QxpUUJ5Z-tHJ_MbV).

### 🪪 Step 1: Link Your Wallet to LORDCHAIN

Go to the[ LORDCHAIN Account Page](https://lordchain.blocklords.com/account) and connect your wallet.\
This will be the wallet where your hero is eventually bridged to.

### 🌐 Step 2: Log In to BLOCKLORDS Website

Visit the[ BLOCKLORDS Profile Page](https://www.blocklords.com/profile).\
Log in with your BLOCKLORDS account and connect the wallet associated with your IMX heroes.

### 📥 Step 4: Complete the Import

Confirm the import transaction. The heroes will now be available in-game and no longer stored on IMX.

### ⚠️ Why This Extra Step?

Unlike other networks, Immutable X does not allow third-party projects to deploy their own smart contracts directly.\
All asset transfers and interactions must go through IMX’s official APIs, which offer limited customization and control over transaction logic.

As a result, we are unable to implement a direct bridge contract on IMX for migrating heroes to LORDCHAIN.\
Instead, the only viable method is to:

1. ✅ Import your IMX heroes into the game via the BLOCKLORDS website
2. 🚀 Export them in-game to LORDCHAIN, where full smart contract support is available

⚠️ Additionally, IMX has announced that it will soon discontinue support for its legacy API infrastructure, making this migration time-sensitive.

We strongly recommend migrating your remaining IMX heroes as soon as possible to ensure their continued utility and ownership in the LORDCHAIN era.

### ⏳ Please Note:

* Hero bridging is not instant and may take some time depending on network and in-game sync.\ <br>
* 🕒 If your hero hasn’t appeared on LORDCHAIN within 2 hours, please contact our official support team for assistance.
