Sun Rewards
How the Sun's Star reward pool is distributed and how to maximize your share of the rewards.
Overview
When the Sun is defeated, its Star reward pool is distributed based on each player's share of total damage dealt. Deal more damage over the fight to earn a proportionally larger slice of the Stars.
This proportional system rewards consistency and investment in your holes rather than luck, so players who steadily improve their damage share climb the earnings curve over time.
Reward Factors
The specific factors that increase your share of Sun rewards, ranked by how much each one moves the needle on your final Star payout per defeat.
Focus your effort on the top factors to climb the leaderboard steadily rather than spreading your attention across marginal optimizations.
Improving even one factor meaningfully lifts your earnings, so you do not need to perfect everything at once to see a real difference in your Star income.
| Factor | Effect |
|---|---|
| Total damage dealt | Higher share of pool |
| Weak-point hits | Bonus damage |
| Hole power | More damage per launch |
| Boosts (Wormhole) | Extra attack damage |
How the Reward Pool Works
The Sun's Star pool is split among all attackers proportional to their damage. A player who deals 10% of the Sun's total HP earns roughly 10% of the reward pool, making the math simple and transparent.
This means your hole power directly translates into Star income - stronger holes mean a bigger slice of every single Sun defeat you participate in over time.
To climb the ranks consistently, combine strong holes with weak-point hits and a Wormhole boost for maximum damage, stacking every multiplier the game offers into each launch.
Spending Your Sun Stars
Three high-value ways to spend the Stars you earn, each chosen to feed back into even more damage so your next Sun fight pays out even more.
The key insight is that Stars are most powerful when reinvested rather than hoarded, since active upgrades compound while idle currency earns nothing at all.
Cash Boosts
Multiply your income to afford stronger holes faster, which in turn deal more Sun damage and earn more Stars.
Hole Protection
Guard your best attacking holes with protection so raiders cannot steal the exact holes you rely on for damage.
Wormhole Hunting
Fund the time you spend hunting Wormholes, since each one you find permanently raises your attack damage.
Maximizing Your Reward Share
A repeatable routine to grow your share of Sun rewards over time, with each cycle compounding your damage and income into the next one.
Consistency across many Sun defeats beats one lucky big session, since steady leaderboard climbing reliably out-earns sporadic bursts over the long run.
Build Strong Holes
Climb the tier list steadily so every launch deals more base damage than the last Sun fight you participated in.
Hit Weak Points
Target weak points whenever they appear for large bonus damage that multiplies your share of the pool.
Equip Boosts
Use a Wormhole for extra attack damage, stacking another multiplier on top of your already strong holes.
Reinvest Stars
Spend your earned Stars on boosts and protection so the next Sun defeat pays out even more than this one.
Sun Reward Tips
Quick pointers for bigger Star payouts, focused on squeezing maximum value out of every Sun fight you join throughout your progression.
Even small improvements to your damage share compound across hundreds of Sun defeats, so investing in better holes and protection always beats chasing a single lucky jackpot moment.
- Read the Sun strategy guide for detailed damage tactics that push your share of the pool higher each fight.
- Protect your attacking holes with protection between Sun fights so raiders cannot steal the holes that earn your Stars.
- Track the cooldown closely to launch as often as possible, since more launches mean more damage and a bigger reward share.
