Pirate Ship
Learn how to find Pirate Ships and compare fixed rewards, chance drops, and shared resource pools across seven tiers.
Pirate Ships are hostile targets on the Galaxy Map. Defeat them alone or with your alliance to earn resources, speedups, Credits, and a chance at rare items. Higher tiers bring stronger fleets and larger resource rewards.
Hunting Pirate Ships
- Find a target: Use a Pirate Ship Scan to spawn one near your base. Scans are generated by the Galactic Observatory.
- Choose a tier: Higher tiers have stronger defenders. Your Observatory level determines the highest tier you can spawn. Choose a tier that suits your forces.
- Attack: Send a fleet through the Galaxy Map or organize an alliance rally. If someone defeats the target before you arrive, your fleet returns without combat or rewards.
Rewards by Tier
- Fixed rewards: Each commander can receive these from up to 10 attacks or rallies per UTC day.
- Chance drops: Rolled separately for each player. Badges show the quantity range and drop chance.
- Shared pool: Solo attackers receive the full pool. Rally members split it according to their contribution.
Chance drops and shared rewards remain available after the fixed-reward limit. All speedups are one-minute items.
