Contracts & Bounties

~4 min read PvP · Subterfuge

Sometimes there are enemies you can't handle yourself. The Contracts system lets you put a price on a player's head — and let the market handle the rest. Paid killers roam EarthStonks waiting for the signal. Name your target. Set your price.

Aliases The contracts system uses two interchangeable command sets: /contracts / /bounties and /contract / /bounty. Both work identically.

Viewing Active Bounties

Anyone can see the current bounty board at any time. Use either command below to browse active contracts:

/contractsView the full list of current bounties
/bountiesAlias — same as /contracts

Checking a Specific Player

Want to know if someone has a price on their head before you attack — or before you cross them?

/contract [username]Check if a specific player has an existing bounty
/bounty [username]Alias — same as /contract [username]

Issuing a Bounty

To put a bounty on a player, specify their username and the cash amount you're offering. The money is taken from your balance immediately and held until the contract is fulfilled.

/contract [username] [$amount]Issue a new bounty or add to an existing one
/bounty [username] [$amount]Alias — same as above
Stack Bounties Multiple players can add to the same bounty. If three players each put $1,000 on the same target, the contract is worth $3,000. Bigger bounties attract more assassins.

Strategic Use

Disrupting Sieges

During a SiegeWar battle session, placing a large bounty on the enemy commander can pull opportunists into the Siege-Zone, creating chaos that benefits your side — even if those players get War Sickness for being neutral.

Economic Warfare

Targeting a player who controls a key resource shop or chest shop network can disrupt their operation. If they're afraid to leave their town, they stop managing their supply — which means their market share is yours to take.

Deterrence

A standing bounty on known griefers or aggressive players acts as a deterrent. It signals that attacking your people has a cost. A large enough bounty makes even veteran PvP players think twice.

Bounties Apply in the Wilderness PvP outside of town claims (the Wilderness) is always allowed. Bounty hunters can pursue targets anywhere outside protected town land. Plan your routes accordingly if you have a price on your head.
