Planets and Asteroids
The bonus PvE targets that drop cash, the Legendary Wormhole, and other rewards alongside the Sun fight.
Overview
Planets and asteroids are bonus PvE targets that spawn during combat. Destroying them drops cash, random black holes, and rare items like the Legendary Wormhole, making them well worth hunting alongside your regular Sun attacks.
Because they appear mid-fight rather than on a fixed schedule, paying attention to spawns is the single most important habit for farming these targets and their valuable drops effectively.
Target Drops
What planets and asteroids can drop when destroyed, ranging from reliable cash payouts all the way up to the coveted Legendary Wormhole that grants free auto-merge.
Drops are random, so the only way to improve your odds is to destroy many targets over time and let the law of averages work in your favor.
Higher-tier targets like beacons tend to have better drop tables than basic asteroids, so prioritize them when you can spare the extra damage needed to clear them during a fight.
| Drop | Source |
|---|---|
| Cash | Planets, asteroids |
| Random black holes | Asteroids |
| Legendary Wormhole | Asteroids, beacons (rare) |
| Other rewards | Varies by target |
Why Hunt Planets and Asteroids
While the Sun is the main Star source, planets and asteroids offer supplemental rewards that quietly add up to a meaningful income stream over many sessions.
They are especially valuable for the chance to drop the Legendary Wormhole, which grants free auto-merge and raid damage - a genuine game-changer for free players who cannot afford the gamepass.
Because they spawn during combat, you can hunt them without abandoning your Sun attacks, making them efficient multi-purpose PvE targets that never compete with your main objective.
Destroying Targets Efficiently
Three concrete ways to clear planets and asteroids faster, since faster clears directly translate into more drops and a higher Wormhole drop rate per hour.
Combining all three methods multiplies their effect, turning a slow target-clear into a rapid sequence that maximizes your rewards per cooldown window.
Even a modest improvement in clear speed compounds over hundreds of targets, which is why experienced hunters obsess over every second saved per engagement.
Strong Holes
Use late-tier holes so you have enough raw damage to destroy targets before they despawn or heal.
Weak Points
Hit weak points for bonus damage, dramatically cutting the number of launches needed to clear each target.
Wormhole Boost
Once you obtain one, the Wormhole speeds up your clears further by boosting every attack you launch.
Asteroid Hunting Routine
A repeatable routine for farming asteroid drops, since consistency pays off and rare drops only appear after you have cleared many targets over multiple sessions.
Pair this routine with your regular Sun attacks for efficient PvE sessions that earn Stars while steadily rolling the dice on a Wormhole drop.
Build Strong Holes
Reach mid tiers or higher so you can damage targets effectively without running out of time.
Watch for Spawns
Track exactly when planets and asteroids appear so you never miss a chance to engage them immediately.
Hit Weak Points
Target weak points to destroy targets quickly, raising your clear count and therefore your drop chances per hour.
Collect Drops
Bank all cash, holes, and especially any Wormhole drops right away so nothing is lost between sessions.
Target Hunting Tips
Quick pointers for efficient PvE farming that maximizes both your steady cash income and your long-shot odds at rare Wormhole drops over many sessions.
Treat asteroid hunting as a long-term investment rather than a quick grind, since the rare Wormhole only appears after you have cleared a large number of targets across multiple play sessions.
- Combine asteroid hunting with Sun attacks for double-purpose play that earns Stars while you chase drops.
- Use cash boosts when farming drops for compounded gains, since both cash drops and your income get multiplied at once.
- Read the PvE vs PvP guide to balance your target mix and avoid overcommitting to either combat style.
