The Hoard & Gates
Every the hoard & gates article on the Ballin Tycoon Wiki.
The Hoard
Your pets crack chests around the clock and besiege the 50 gates that unlock the rest of the game.
Hoard Chests
The five Hoard chest tiers: open times, loot, the chest cycle, banked chests, keys and every rare drop.
Gates
The 50-gate ladder: how attacks work, health and armor for every gate, and everything each gate unlocks.
Artifacts
25 one-time finds from Hoard chests. Each multiplies its own shard-shop row: ×2 Worn, ×3 Gilded, ×4 Divine.
Skill Tree
One long tree of 55 nodes and 5 keystones, bought with skill points from chests and gates.
Achievements
151 one-time goals in three tiers — Easy, Hard and Extreme — and the Achievement Shop their points buy.
Bounties
Craft bars and collect ore while a bounty is live - or, rarely, win a raid or grove run - for Bounty Points, build a streak for bonus points, and spend them on upgrades that reset each prestige.
Hoard Pets
Rampart Ram, Vault Pangolin, Warlord Hyena — three pets only Hoard chests can pay, each built for one Hoard job.
