How to Get Sterne
All the ways to earn Sterne - the premium currency - and the best ways to spend them.
Übersicht
Sterne are a premium currency in Merge a Black Hole, mainly earned by attacking the Sonne and planets. They're spent in the Sternenladen on Verstärkungen, Schutz, and other powerful items.
Unlike Geld, Sterne don't accumulate on their own, so you have to actively fight for them. Plan your Sonne attacks and code redemptions carefully to keep a healthy supply of Sterne ready for the upgrades that matter most.
Ways to Earn Sterne
Every method of obtaining Sterne, ranked by accessibility so you know exactly where to focus your effort first.
Sonne Schaden is the primary ongoing source for active Spieler, while Codes and Robux offer quick top-ups whenever you're short for a specific purchase.
| Method | How |
|---|---|
| Sonne Schaden | Top Schaden shares the Star Belohnung pool |
| Planet targets | Destroy planets for bonus Star drops |
| Codes | e.g. FREESTARS grants two free Sterne |
| Robux | Buy Sterne directly for an instant top-up |
Earning Sterne from the Sonne
The main way to earn Sterne is dealing Schaden to the Sonne. The Spieler who deal the most Schaden share a Star Belohnung pool when the Sonne is finally defeated by the whole server working together.
Because the Sonne has over a million LP, it takes many attackers - but the top Schaden dealers earn the most Sterne by far. Aiming for Schwachpunkte whenever they appear is what maximizes your personal share of that pool.
Planets and asteroids also drop Sterne and other Belohnungen between major Sonne events, making PvE targets a steady secondary source that keeps your balance growing.
Best Ways to Spend Sterne
Three high-value Sternenladen purchases that deliver the most impact per Star you spend, ordered by when they pay off.
Prioritize these to get compounding returns - a good Geld Verstärkung pays for itself many times over during an active session, while Schutz prevents catastrophic losses.
Cash Boosts
Multiply your Einkommen with 2x Geld Verstärkungen that scale directly with however strong your current holes already are on your Basis.
Hole Protection
Guard your top hole with Schutz so a Überfall can't wipe out your best earner overnight.
Spawn Boosts
Buy 2x hole spawn to build tiers much faster and refill your Basis quickly after a setback.
Star Farming Strategie
A routine for maximizing your Star Einkommen across every Sonne event and session.
Each step increases your share of the Belohnung pool, and chaining them together turns a weak Star flow into a steady one.
Pair this with strong Verteidigung so your attacking holes survive to deal Schaden throughout the entire fight.
Build Strong Holes
Reach late tiers for enough Basis Schaden to compete for the top Sonne Belohnung shares.
Attack the Sonne
Launch your strongest holes at the Sonne during every Angriff window to keep your Schaden contribution climbing.
Hit Weak Points
Aim for Schwachpunkte the instant they appear, since their bonus Schaden is what pushes you up the Rangliste.
Spend Wisely
Reinvest earned Sterne into Verstärkungen and Schutz that further increase your Schaden and Einkommen for the next event.
Star Tipps
Quick pointers for managing your Sterne so you always have enough for the purchases that matter.
Treat Sterne as fuel for Verstärkungen and Schutz rather than a number to hoard, and your progression speeds up noticeably.
- Redeem the FREESTARS code for free Sterne the moment you start a run, before grinding the Sonne.
- Read the Sternenladen Leitfaden before spending so every Star goes toward your biggest current bottleneck.
- Equip a Wurmloch Verstärkung to deal more Sonne and Spieler Schaden, lifting your Belohnung share each fight.
