A '''vault''' is the name given to the category of player-built structures used to store [[ExilePearl|pearled]] players or other valuables. Typically built out of a large amount of [[Citadel|reinforced]] obsidian, vaults are one of the most expensive structures built on Civ.

A '''vault''' is a fortified structure used to store [[Comprehensive_Guide:Combat#Exile_Pearl|pearled players]] and/or other valuables. Pearls are typically held inside a chest, encased by a mound of obsidian at the center called a pyramid. These pyramids are most commonly found in large holes in the ground that have been dug out from surface level all the way to bedrock level. Other fortifications are often built to protect the pyramid, such as concentric rings of [[Comprehensive_Guide:Protection#Bastion|bastions]] and obsidian walls. Bunkers or towers are often constructed above the main part of the vault to store materials, factories, and potions for vault defense and to supply fighters.

A vault is typically built at bedrock level, and consists of a single chest encased in a pyramid of reinforced obsidian. Often, additional fortifications are built to protect this pyramid, such as concentric rings of obsidian walls or [[Bastion|bastions]], or a nearby [[bunker]] to store defensive materials such as potions. A variant of a bunker, called a sky bunker, is often built at the top of a vault to protect against [[Skybridge|skybridging]].

~~A large ringed vault is often referred to as a "megavault", "gigavault" or even "hypervault" depending on the size.~~ Ringed vaults generally take many hours to break, ~~sieges against the largest vaults~~ possibly even ~~taking~~ days. Vaults vary in size from the 4 ring former USA North vault to the largest vault on civclassic, Mir's Sanctaphrax, which contains over 30 rings.
