A vault is a structure used to store prisonpearls and exilepearls. A vault, in it's most basic form, is typically an obsidian pyramid, as this is the hardest structure to destroy. To protect this pyramid, other fortifications may be built around it, such as rings of obsidian walls, cobwebs and bastions, sometimes referred to as "nerd rings". A bunker or tower is often constructed above the vault, where supplies for fighters are stored. A large, ringed vault is often referred to as a "megavault". These vaults range n size greatly, from Varkonias 3 ring megavault, to the Holy Jaded Empires 9 ring megavault.

Vaults have existed since Civcraft 1.0 after prisonpearl was added. The more advanced "megavaults" were pioneered by the nation of FAGT in Civcraft 2.0. Such advanced vaults were thought to be unbreakable until the fall of Nox after a long seige towards the end of 2.0.
Vaults have existed since Civcraft 1.0 after prisonpearl was added. Vaults were effectively big obsidian pyramids that would take hours to break. As time went on vaults got more and more complex. The more advanced "megavaults" were pioneered by the nation of FAGT in Civcraft 2.0. Such advanced vaults were thought to be unbreakable until the fall of Nox after a long seige towards the end of 2.0.

There was a schism in vault doctrine during and after 3.0. Diet_Cola pioneered what are now known as Cola Cubes, while others took existing nerd rings and optimized them far beyond 2.0 standards. Cola cube type vaults function as an array of bastion squares while nerd rings have overlapping bastions in an octagonal shape.
