== History ==
Vaults have existed since [[Civcraft 1.0|CivCraft 1.0]] after the PrisonPearl plugin was added. In those days, the original vaults were effectively just big obsidian pyramids located at bedrock level that would take hours to mine through to reach the pearl chest. As time went on and new mechanics like bastions were introduced, vaults got increasingly complex. The first ringed vaults emerged on [[Civcraft 2.0]], attributed to individuals and groups such as FAGT, Peter, and Clone.
 
The first ringed vault to be tested in combat was Clone's vault which had only two rings, the outer being a conventional ring with reinforced web traps that did not follow bastion fields, and the inner being a lava ring designed to drown attackers. Although it has to be said this vault conceptually didn't represent a change in how vaults were defended; stopping attackers from reaching the pyramid at all wasn't the overriding goal. A short time later, the Titan Vault saw the logical progression of several features of Clone's vault on a larger scale. Reinforced web traps in the rings were devastating, and enabled the pearling of the person who went on to design the Titan Vault. Other increasingly antiquated concepts such as lava and water chambers were left behind as ring designs became more standardized across different schools of thought. Later on, more advanced vaults were pioneered by the World Police of the era during and after the fall of Titan. Some of those vault technicians included: Diet_Cola, TealNerd, and ShadedJon. The general bastion layout and ring shape designed by TealNerd around this time is also where the term "nerd rings" derives from. Diet_Cola iterated on the concept and created the infinitely scalable and consistent style of ring Bastion grid that became the standard for some years after.

The Hallow vault was known to use this mechanics until mining fatigue was disabled by the administration team.
