Portal Attack
Check Portal attack costs, travel times, ground-unit requirements, and how to find a target's address.
Portal Attacks allow rapid ground-unit deployment to enemy bases via the Portal Network.
Portal Attack Rules
- Energy Cost: 500 Energy to dial + 5 Energy per unit sent.
- Travel Time: Fast, scaled linearly between a minimum of 10 seconds for close targets and a maximum cap of 10 minutes for long distances (4,000+ units).
- Visible Attack: Defenders receive a warning but have very little time to react.
- Ground Units Only: No ships allowed through the Portal.
Exact defender composition in PvP combat reports is available only after a successful unit scout, an attacking victory, or an attack that commits at least 5% of the defender's pre-battle combat influence. Smaller attacks still show their outcome and your own losses, but not defender units, casualties, bonuses, or reinforcements.
You must know the target's 8-symbol Portal address to attack via Portal. Discover addresses through Scouting or combining Fragments.
