Visão geral

The escudo base temporarily protects your black holes and dinheiro from incoming raids, while PvP lets you launch your own holes at other jogadores' bases to steal their dinheiro. Managing both systems well is absolutely essential once you hold valuable mid and late nível holes.

Get the balance right and you will invasão profitably while keeping every single one of your hard-earned holes completely safe from retaliation.

Base Shield:Temporary invasão proteção
Shield Timer:Seconds to minutes
PvP Toggle:On/off switch
Raid Cooldown:~1 minute

How the Base Shield Works

The escudo base grants a window of total proteção during which other jogadores cannot invasão your base or destroy any of your holes. Upgrading the escudo steadily extends the timer from just a few seconds up to several full minutes.

Because raids can permanently destroy holes, the escudo is your single most important line of defesa for high-value tiers like the Buraco Ômega.

You can freely toggle PvP on or off at any time you choose. Many jogadores keep PvP off while building up, then turn it on to invasão rivals - though the community has noted this can be quite frustrating for attackers.

Shield Timer Tiers

Shield duration increases steadily as you melhoria it through the various tiers. Approximate duration values are shown in the table below.

Longer shields give you safe, worry-free windows to fundir and even go offline for a while without losing any progress.

Shield LevelApprox. Duration
Base escudo~10 seconds of proteção
Early upgrades~1.5 minutes
Mid upgrades~5 minutes
High upgrades~8.5 minutes
Max upgrades~12.5 minutes
Even a maxed escudo expires - always pair it with best-hole proteção for your top hole.

Raiding and Defending

Three core concepts that together govern all PvP combat in the entire jogo.

Understanding these concepts deeply helps you invasão profitably without ever losing your own valuable holes.

Skipping any one of them quickly turns invasões into a gamble rather than a reliable, repeatable renda source.

Launch Raids

Send your holes at rival bases to steal their hard-earned dinheiro, but always mind the strict ~1 minute recarga.

Use Shields

Keep your escudo base fully active at all times to reliably block all incoming raids.

Protect Top Holes

Shield your single best hole with proteção before ever going offline for the night.

Destroyed holes are gone for good - never invasão without your own escudo active, or you risk retaliation.

Safe Raiding Workflow

A low-risk, repeatable routine for invasões profitably without ever losing your own holes.

Always confirm your escudo is fully active before launching any ataque on a rival base.

End every single play session by protecting your best hole, especially if you currently hold valuable late tiers.

1

Activate Your Shield

Always ensure your escudo base is fully up and active before attempting any kind of invasão.

2

Pick a Target

Carefully launch your holes at a rival base with visibly exposed dinheiro or a notably weak overall defesa setup.

3

Respect the Cooldown

Patiently wait out the full enforced ~1 minute recarga between each successive ataque.

4

Protect Before Leaving

Always apply best-hole proteção to your top hole before going offline for any length of time.

Discipline saves holes - rushing raids without defesa is the fastest way to lose progress.

PvP Tips

Quick habits for safer and consistently more profitable raids over time.

Discipline here is exactly what separates raiders who profit steadily from those who carelessly lose their best holes to retaliation.

  • Equip a Buraco de Minhoca impulso to substantially increase your overall invasão dano against rival jogadores.
  • Toggle PvP off entirely while merging to avoid being raided in the middle of an active play session.
  • Save your hard-earned Estrelas for best-hole proteção once you start holding valuable tiers.
  • Always confirm your escudo timer is sufficient before launching any ataque on a rival base.
  • Upgrade your escudo regularly so its proteção duration keeps pace with your growing hole values.
