What's the difference between the 1k and 2k resolution tiers?

1k is the default, lower-cost tier at 7 gold. 2k roughly doubles the output detail and costs 13 gold. Use 1k for drafts and prompt iteration, then switch to 2k for a final, extra-crisp result.

How many reference images can I use?

Up to ten reference images per generation, so you can keep a character consistent across a set or combine elements from multiple sources.

What are the best use cases for Seedream 5.0 Pro?

Hero art, campaign posters, detailed character sheets, spell scrolls, and item cards, especially where the extra 2k detail matters for print or large displays.

Describe scenes with specific material, lighting, and composition cues. Seedream 5.0 Pro follows detailed prompts closely, so specificity pays off.
Step 3
Leverage Multiple Reference Images
Add up to ten reference images to keep a character consistent across a set, or to blend elements from several sources into one scene.
