## Prison Armor Tiers and Mining Events: how it works

Your armor levels up just by mining and boosts Tokens, Gems, crit and money. Server-wide mining events also start every 30 minutes and boost earnings for everyone.

**How to open it:** Use `/armor` to see your armor and its level, and `/armor` skin to apply armor skins.

There are currently 12 armor tiers, 6 in-season armor skins and 7 mining events.

- **Armor XP**: You earn 1 Armor XP per block mined, climbing from Common to Insanity+ at level 100.
- **Armor money**: Your armor adds 5% up to 40% of your total money multiplier.
- **Reaper skin**: The strongest in-season armor skin, adding 75% of your total money plus big currency boosts.
- **Token Frenzy**: A mining event that gives 2x Tokens for 30 minutes.
- **Payday**: A mining event that gives 2x Money for 30 minutes.
- **Prestige Surge**: A mining event that gives 2x Prestige Points for 30 minutes.
- **Enchant Frenzy**: A mining event that adds 20% enchant proc for 30 minutes.

**Note:** Two different events always start together every 30 minutes, so you never get the same event twice at once.

**Tips**

- Armor Training gives 2x Armor XP, so mine hard while it runs to level your armor faster.
- Armor skins come from vouchers, and each one boosts Tokens, Gems, Essence and Pickaxe XP by the same amount.
- Each running event has its own boss bar, so you can see what is active.

## Armor and mining events

Your armor levels from Common to Insanity+ (level 100) just by mining, boosting Tokens, Gems, crit and money. Seasonal armor skins add bigger boosts on top.
Every 30 minutes two server-wide mining events start, such as Token Frenzy (2x Tokens), Payday (2x Money) or Prestige Surge (2x Prestige Points), for 30 minutes each.

## Armor tiers
Your armor (/armor) levels up as you mine, earning 1 Armor XP per block mined, and climbs 12 tiers to level 100. It boosts Tokens, Gems and enchant crit, and adds 5% up to 40% of your total money multiplier.
