On May 26, 2017 Mobile Strike introduced a new set of 10 VIP levels, including VIP 160.
Although this is not called VIP Prestige 15 in the game, it is a new set of 10 and there is a race to VIP 160 event as well. On the website we regard this as if it is VIP Prestige 15, to fit nicely in our setup.
The main new feature is Boost Presets. It allows you to specify various sets of boosts as presets that you can activate via one click.
Besides that there is an option to use 1000 VIP items at once, very useful for all those tiny VIP point items you get, although even when using them with thousands at the same time they don't amount to much considering the point requirements.
Besides that the Combat boosts have made another huge jump For a full overview see the comparison between VIP 150 and VIP 160 below.
Cumulative point requirements have made another big jump. To get from VIP 150 to VIP 160 you need 29.9 BT points.
Below we have provided a comparison between VIP 150 and VIP 160. We have not included screenshots anymore, anyone can see these in the game.
See our VIP Difference Calculator to compare any two VIP levels and our VIP Overview for details on all VIP levels (including screenshots).
Note: Any data in italic is unconfirmed. It is based on known data and patterns in previous VIP levels and should be close to the actual data.
Daily Club Bonuses are included where applicable.
On April 28, 2017 Mobile Strike introduced a new set of 10 VIP levels, including VIP 150.
Although this is not called VIP Prestige 14 in the game, it is a new set of 10 and there is a race to VIP 150 event as well. On the website we regard this as if it is VIP Prestige 14, to fit nicely in our setup.
The main new feature is a new Commander Skills Preset feature. I am wondering a bit whether this is somehow inspired by the Skill Tree Planner I introduced on this website. Seems unlikely on one hand, but on the other hand, it sounds like it has quite some overlap.
Besides that the Combat boosts have made a huge jump, similar to the huge jump in other areas of the game as well. Some of the Combat stats are now in millions. For a full overview see the comparison between VIP 140 and VIP 150 below.
There are several new Combat boosts introduced, including Armor Piercing. Also see the comparison below.
The Use Multiple Speed Ups that was introduced with the previous set of VIP levels has been extended with a category for Trap Building, and the amount was increased from 10 to 1000.
Cumulative point requirements have made another big jump. To get from VIP 140 to VIP 150 you need 17.65 MT points.

On March 21, 2017 Mobile Strike introduced a new set of 10 VIP levels, including VIP 140.
Although this is not called VIP Prestige 13 in the game, it is a new set of 10 and there is a race to VIP 140 event as well. On the website we regard this as if it is VIP Prestige 13, to fit nicely in our setup.
The main new feature is the introduction of the possibility to use multiple speed ups at once for promotion, training, construction and research. In addition the Combat Boosts have been extended and increased.
The Combat Boosts include some boosts applicable to Army instead of Troop. I read the only difference between the Army and Troop boosts is that these Army boosts are not debuffed by the Troop boosts.
And that is it again. Other boosts have not changed at all compared to VIP 130.
Cumulative point requirements have made another big jump. To get from VIP 130 to VIP 140 you need 140 KT points.
Below we have provided a comparison between VIP 130 and VIP 140 and the screenshots for VIP 140.

On February 17, 2017 Mobile Strike introduced a new set of 10 VIP levels, including VIP 130.
Although this is not called VIP Prestige 12 in the game, it is a new set of 10 and there is a race to VIP 130 event as well. On the website we regard this as if it is VIP Prestige 12, to fit nicely in our setup.
The main new feature is a new Building Boost Manager and a One CLick Building Boost Level Up. In addition there are some new Combat Boosts and the existing ones have increased a lot.
And that's really it. For the items that had a DBC extra boost of 8%, that has now changed to 10%, but the basic boosts have not changed.
Cumulative point requirements have made another big jump. To get from VIP 120 to VIP 130 you need 5 KT points (yes, now it is kilo trillion, that is 15 zeros).
Below we have provided a comparison between VIP 120 and VIP 130 and the screenshots for VIP 130.

On January 20, 2017 Mobile Strike introduced a new set of 10 VIP levels, including VIP 120.
Although this is not called VIP Prestige 11 in the game, it is a new set of 10 and there is a race to VIP 120 event as well. On the website we regard this as if it is VIP Prestige 11, to fit nicely in our setup.
The main new feature is a new Mod Preset System, including 10 Mod Preset slots at VIP 120. In addition the Attack boost has made a huge jump to 4100% (including DBC) and Defense and Health almost doubled to 700%.
And that's really it. For the items that had a DBC extra boost of 7%, that has now changed to 8%, but the basic boosts have not changed.
Cumulative point requirements have made a huge jump once again. To get from VIP 110 to VIP 120 you need 148.9 trillion points (yes, trillion (or Tera), that is 12 zeros).
Below we have provided a comparison between VIP 110 and VIP 120 and the screenshots for VIP 120.

On December 14, 2016 Mobile Strike introduced a new set of 10 VIP levels.
Note that VIP 101 and 102 were made available earlier without any in-game announcement (that I am aware of). Although this is not called VIP Prestige 10 in the game, it is a new set of 10 and there is a race to VIP 110 event as well. On the website we regard this as if it is VIP Prestige 10, to fit nicely in our setup.
The main new features are new special skills to one-click fill rallies with the same troop composition as the rally leader, to get warnings when players fill rallies with different troop compositions, and to remove mods for free. In addition the Attack, Health and Defense Bonus are increased to 357% (from 206%), Resource Production boosts to 182% (from 56%) and the auto-complete alliance helps to 25 (from 17).
Most of the other boosts are increased as well (some by only 1% due to an increase in the daily bonus club extra boost from 6% to 7%) except for the Missions, Vault Maximum Deposit, Commander Preset, Troop Load and Open Resource Items.
Cumulative point requirement to get from VIP 100 to VIP 110 is 488 billion points (up from 10 billion from the previous set of 10 levels).
Below we have provided a comparison between VIP 100 and VIP 110 and the screenshots for VIP 110.

When VIP Prestige 9 was introduced the game also switched to a new style. In this section we discuss the changes.
All VIP levels now have a sequential number, VIP 1 to VIP 100 for now.
Level 91 is at least equal for all boosts to level 90. For previous levels the next Prestige/set of 10 always started with most boosts worse than the end of the previous set of 10/VIP Prestige.
It is no longer necessary to pay 10,000 gold or use a VIP token to switch to a new VIP Prestige.
All VIP levels can now be seen by everyone, including the points to reach that level from where you are.
I am not exactly sure how the switch to new sets of 10 levels work. I was maxed at level 60 when VIP prestige 9 was introduced and I stayed there, the free daily VIP points did not take me to the next level. This makes sense because VIP 61 is worse than VIP 60 wrt many boosts. I could force the switch by using a 100 VIP points item. Seeing that now you see the point requirements to any VIP level, I expect if you spend a 5 million VIP points item when you are in the VIP forties, you will skip the fifties and jump straigh to the VIP sixties, but I am not sure. If someone can confirm or deny this, that would be great.
On November 16, 2016 Mobile Strike introduced VIP Prestige 9. We have received all screenshots and have updated all information on the website.
The main new feature is One Click Core Set Manufacturing. In addition the Attack, Health and Defense Bonus are increased to 206% (from 85%), and you can Open All Alliance Gifts (from 275).
Most of the other boosts are increased except for the Missions, Vault Maximum Deposit, Commander Preset and Open Resource Items.
A big change is that for the first time the level 1 of this Prestige is with respect to all boosts the same or better as the previous Prestige level 10, this means that there is no reason to wait with making the switch to VIP Prestige 9 once you reach VIP Prestige 8 level 10.
Previously it was sometimes difficult to see which Prestige level you were actually in, which Mobile Strike has now made easier by showing a sequential number for the VIP level in the VIP shield in your base. VIP Prestige 9 level 10 is VIP 100. It took me a few days to realize that with this change all VIP levels can now be seen by all players, so for the first time I actually could have made the screenshots myself, at least as far as the boosts go. The point requirements seem to still only show up once you unlock the next VIP Prestige. I am not sure what the exact reason for this change is. For sure it is more friendly for players to know what they are getting into before forking out money, but I doubt that was the motivation for the game maker. Seeing all the changes I am thinking it might be the case that the game makers are preparing to release individual VIP levels from now onwards instead of batches of 10.
Cumulative point requirement to get from VIP 91 to VIP 100 is 10,000,000,000 points, that is 8 times the amount of points that were required for VIP Prestige 8.
Below we have provided a comparison between VIP Prestige 8 Level 10 and VIP Prestige 9 Level 10 and the screenshots for VIP Prestige 9 Level 10.
See our VIP Difference Calculator to compare any two VIP levels and our VIP Overview for details on all VIP levels (including screenshots).
Note: Any data in italic is unconfirmed. It is based on known data and patterns in previous VIP levels and should be close to the actual data.
Daily Club Bonuses are included where applicable.
On October 14 Mobile Strike introduced VIP Prestige 8. We have received screenshots of all levels and incorporated all data on the website. Screenshots can be seen by navigating to the individual level pages.
The main new features are extra Commander Preset, Free Equip Commander Preset, Permanent VIP Status, Open All Crates of Multiple Types, and Apply All Resources of Multiple Types.
Note that I am not exactly sure what the differences are between the Open All Crates and Open All Resource Items of the various prestige levels and it is confusing me more that the new VIP Prestige has both an Open All Crates and an Open 1500 Crates (not sure in which situation you would want to open your crates in batches of 1500 instead of opening all, and if so, why is 1500 better than 1000 or 2000?). Because I don't understand the details, I am likely presenting it incorrectly or confusing as well.
There is a 35% increase in (Advanced) Troop Attack and 40% increase in (Advanced) Troop Health and (Advanced) Troop Defense.
Troop Load increases with 20% and most other boosts increase with more than their standard 3% (between 4% and 11%). There is no increase in VIP missions and Vault Maximum Deposit.
Note that for this VIP Prestige level although there are quite some increases in existing benefits and new benefits, the bulk only comes available in VIP Prestige 8 level 10. Even more so than with other Prestige levels, the jump between VIP Prestige 8 level 9 and 10 seems large.
Note that some of the benefits we previously listed as Special Skills (e.g. Open 250 Alliance Gifts), while now we list it as a boost (e.g. Open Alliance Gifts with value 250), which makes comparing the benefits of various levels easier. We have modified all older VIP level data accordingly.
The overview pages now include the Daily Club bonus, where applicable (we have data for VIP Prestige 7 and 8). The individual VIP level pages show a breakdown of the standard and Daily Club bonus benefits. The VIP Comparison Tool has been extended so that a comparison can be done by either including the Daily Club Bonus or not. This does not influence the difference, as it seems the Daily Club bonus is the same for all VIP Prestige 7 and 8 levels, but of course does influence the totals.
The point requirements to complete VIP Prestige 8 level 1 to 10 is 1,250,000,000 (is 500,000,000 for VIP Prestige 7). This is another significant increase, but this time it feels like the added benefits are actually worth it, while for some of the previous Prestige Levels the benefits were very minimal. Unfortunately you cannot get to this one without getting through all the other ones first.
Below we have provided a comparison between VIP Prestige 7 Level 10 and VIP Prestige 8 Level 10 and the screenshots for VIP Prestige 8 Level 10.
See our VIP Difference Calculator to compare any two VIP levels and our VIP Overview for details on all VIP levels (including screenshots).
Note: Any data in italic is unconfirmed. It is based on known data and patterns in previous VIP levels and should be close to the actual data.
Daily Club Bonuses are included where applicable.
On September 16 Mobile Strike introduced VIP Prestige 7. We received screenshots on September 24, information below is confirmed to be correct.
The main new features are Open All Crates of the Same Type and Apply All Resources of the Same Kind. The Auto Complete Alliance Helps goes up from 10 to 15 and the (Advanced) Troop Defense boosts are made equal to (Advanced) Troop Health. For the rest there is mostly the typical increase of 3%.
The point requirements to complete VIP Prestige 7 level 1 to 10 is 500,000,000 (is 80,000,000 for VIP Prestige 6), we still have to go through the point requirements for the individual levels.
Below we have provided a comparison between VIP Prestige 6 Level 10 and VIP Prestige 7 Level 10. Older screenshots have been removed from this guide and can be found at the pages of the individual level via the link below.

On August 18 Mobile Strike introduced VIP Prestige 6. I have received screenshots of all levels, but have to work through them and add all to the website. Hope to get that finished today or tomorrow, but first I wanted to focus on VIP Prestige 6 Lvl 10 (already included on the website), compared to VIP Prestige 5 Lvl 10.
The main new feature is to Automcomplete 10 Alliance Helps. This means as soon as you start a construction or research you get 10 Alliance Helps. This sounds nice, but it might actually still take quite some time to get the remaining 15 Helps, so in the end you might still want to switch to a Help Alliance if you want to speed through some researches.
There is one boost that has a significant increase, the (Advanced) Troop Health Bonus goes up with 8% to a total of 37%. This is a nice one.
For the rest almost all bonuses go up with 3%, you get two extra of each Missions, an extra 5 minutes of instant construction speed up (but who cares at this stage?). The Vault Maximum Deposit Increase and Troop Queue Bonus do not change.
According the screenshots I got, the total point requirements goes up from 6.5 million for VIP Prestige 5 Lvl 1 to 10 to 80 million for VIP Prestige 6 Lvl 1 to 10.
I don't understand the point requirements, this seems to be insane to me, while if anything VIP Prestige is offering less value than the increase from VIP Prestige 4 to VIP Prestige 5. Anyone care to explain?
Btw, keep in mind when making the switch to VIP Prestige 6 that even reaching a breakeven point compared to VIP Prestige 5 Lvl 10 boosts is not automatic, make sure you have enough points to speed through to VIP Prestige 6 lvl 5 or 6.
Older screenshots have been removed from this guide and can be found at the pages of the individual level via the link below.

On July 18 Mobile Strike Player 7se7en7 sent me screenshots for all levels of VIP Prestige 3 - 5, which were taken at the moment he activated the corresponding VIP prestige levels, so they do not only contain all the boosts, but also the point levels. I have included the screenshots on the pages for the corresponding VIP levels and have updated all information accordingly, so as of now we have information for all available VIP levels complete and accurate.
Many thanks to 7se7en7!
On July 11, 2016 VIP Prestige 5 was released. The screenshot of level 10 are shown below.
The main new feature is the possibility to Open 10 Resource Items. Besides that there are increases in the Open Alliance Gifts (to 250) and Open Crates (to 1500), and significant increases in the (Advanced) Troop Attack Bonus (to 39%) (no longer the same as the Defense and Health Boost, which are only 29%) and Deployment Speed (to 40%). The Commander and Manufacturing Research Tree Speed Up Bonus is increases to 13%, already at Lvl 9, but a warning, below lvl 8 these boosts are smaller than VIP Prestige 4 Level 10.
The Vault Maximum Deposit is increased to 1000.
Other existing boosts have a similar small increase as in previous Prestige levels, see the overviews and use our VIP Difference Calculator for details.
Where the total point requirements of VIP Prestige 4 went up with about 10% compared to VIP Prestige 3, for VIP Prestige 5 there is a huge jump in points again, like we saw for lower VIP Prestige levels. It is 6.5M for the complete VIP Prestige 5. The division of points has also changed a bit. At lower Prestige levels it was typically the case that lvl 10 would require almost double the points as lvl 9 did, for VIP Prestige 5 lvl 8 requires 1.16M and lvl 9 requires 1.53M.
Older screenshots have been removed from this guide and can be found at the pages of the individual level via the link below.

On June 9, 2016 VIP Prestige 4 was released. The main new feature is the possibility to Open 50 Alliance Gifts with in addition new boosts for Commander and Manufacturing Research Speed (10%), Troop Queue Boost (25%) and Maximum Vault Gold Deposit Increase (500).
All existing boosts got their typical increase, nothing jumps out.
The point requirements have only increased roughly 25% compared to VIP Prestige 3, which is significantly less than the increase for previous VIP Prestige levels.

Just 3 weeks after VIP Prestige 2 VIP Prestige 3 was added.
The main new feature of VIP Prestige 3, unlocked by level 10, is the ability to combine items (materials, modes, cores, attachments) to a target level, making the combining work less time consuming. Another very important difference is that it seems the combat boosts for Advanced Troops are only going to be available from VIP Prestige 3 onwards. In addition there are new boosts for normal equipment and core manufacturing cost reduction (both 4% at level 10, slowly increasing with levels, both 2% at level 6).
Level 10 gives 2 extra of each missions and all existing boosts have a small increase, including a 3% increase for the combat boosts: 23%.
Find below a comparison of VIP Prestige 3 lvl 10 to VIP Prestige 2 lvl 10. Older screenshots have been removed from this guide and can be found at the pages of the individual level via the link below.

When I wrote our first version of the VIP guide I assumed the game makers would take the same route as they did for Game of War, in which they kept adding additional VIP Prestige levels, each having better benefits than the one before. However the Mobile Strike game makers just released a VIP Prestige 2 set and we are confronted with the situation again that VIP Prestige 2 Lvl 1 is in most aspects much worse than VIP Prestige 1 Lvl 10. Assuming this will be a pattern it makes a stronger case for just waiting at a maxed out level instead of going to the next set if VIP Prestige levels.
I decided to make the jump to VIP Prestige 2, so the data is now complete. The data I had filled in was correct in most cases, and just deviated one or two percent in a the cases it was wrong. The missing point requirements have been filled in and it indeed costs 10,000 gold to unlock VIP Prestige 2, the same as VIP Prestige 1.

If you have not done so previously, it might still be good to look at my old VIP Prestige Guide at the bottom of this guide. I will just make a brief comparison of the different type of boosts in the same way as before, comparing VIP Prestige 1 Level 10 to the VIP Prestige 2 level that meets or exceeds the boosts.
Resource Production Boosts and Economic Boosts are of minor importance to almost all players, especially since the boosts are relatively very small compared to the resource production boosts you can get with Commander Skill Points. This should not be a decisive factor, or any factor, in determining when to switch to VIP Prestige. Having said that, at VIP Prestige 2 Level 8 you have the same resource production boosts as VIP Prestige 1 Level 10, Deployment Speed and Manufacting Speed are also the same. In addition VIP Prestige 2 levels give a Core Gathering Luck, Attachment Gathering Luck, Core Duration, Gathering and Troop Load boost.
The VIP Prestige 2 Lvl 2 Combat Boosts are only 3% higher than the Prestige 1 Combat Boosts, and you need to upgrade to VIP Prestige 2 Level 6 to meet the VIP Prestige 1 Level 10 Combat Boosts.
Auto completing constructions is great unfortunately you start again lower on the early VIP Prestige 2 levels. Only at VIP Prestige 2 Level 8 will you beat VIP Prestige 1 Level 10 (by just one minute). VIP Prestige 2 Level 10 has a 5 minute benefit for a total of 35 minutes.
Similar as to VIP Prestige 1 the extra Daily, Alliance and VIP missions play an important role. These give XP and a chance on materials and are important. At VIP Prestige 2 Level 2 you get an additional 2 of each, and already at VIP Prestige 2 Level 4 you almost meet the VIP Prestige 1 Level 10 mission amounts (only one VIP mission less, which is the least important of the three since you cannot autocomplete them). This might be an important factor in deciding to go for VIP Prestige 2.
Open 50 Crates at the same time is available in VIP Prestige 2 Level 1 as well and increases each level to a total of 500 at VIP Prestige 2 Level 10.
I am in general not impressed with the additional benefits of VIP Prestige 2. They are just minor additional boosts for the existing categories and small new boosts. Open 500 Crates will be interesting if you have thousands to open, which I do not. Most attractive to me is the additional 2 Daily and Alliance Missions. I have decided to make the jump to VIP Prestige 2, but did that more to make sure I had the complete and correct VIP data for this website than that I expect to get higher benefits than VIP Prestige 1 Lvl 10 anytime soon.
See our VIP Difference Calculator to compare any two VIP levels and our VIP Overview for details on all VIP levels.
To Prestige or Not To Prestige, that is not the question, really. It is more about when to switch to VIP Prestige. As soon as possible, or wait until you have saved up enough VIP points so that you can upgrade to a level of VIP Prestige that gives you enough benefit. Because that is really the drawback of VIP Prestige, VIP Prestige Level 1 is not better than VIP Level 10, not at all. Especially for your main account where you can expect to keep accumulating VIP points, you should consider that you will switch to VIP Prestige eventually, if not for the benefits of VIP Prestige Level 10, consider that the game makers will very likely introduce more new VIP Prestige levels later on, with nice added benefits, so it will become worthwhile eventually. Below we will one by one consider the different aspects of VIP Prestige compared to VIP level 10 to help you decide when it is best to switch, depending on what is most important for you.
Important: Be aware that VIP Prestige Level upgrades require a lot more points than VIP Level upgrades.
These are of minor importance to almost all players, especially since the boosts are relatively very small compared to the resource production boosts you can get with Commander Skill Points. Should not be a decisive factor, or any factor, in determining when to switch to VIP Prestige. Having said that, at VIP Prestige Level 8 you have the same resource production boosts as VIP Level 10, Deployment Speed is 1% more and Manufacting Speed 2% less.
If you are an active fighter the Combat Boosts you get with VIP 10 (15% Troop Health, Defense and Attack) are quite attractive, although also here it holds that there are other ways (Commander Skill Points, Gear with Mods) where you can get much higher Combat Boosts. Only at VIP Prestige Level 9 will you get the same boosts as VIP Level 10. VIP Prestige 10 gives 2% extra Combat Boosts.
Auto completing constructions is great and this is unfortunately the worst factor of VIP Prestige. Only at VIP Prestige Level 10 do you get the same 30 Minutes as VIP Level 10 already gave, so at this moment VIP Prestige does not offer anything extra.
Fortunately this very important aspect of VIP does not reset, meaning that at all VIP Prestige Levels the auto completion of Daily and Alliance Missions is available.
I wrote in an earlier guide the relevance of the Daily, Alliance and VIP Missions. They are a great way of getting some Commander XP and give a chance of some mats as well. The number of mission bonuses, together with the auto completion of Daily and Alliance missions are for me a very important factor of the VIP levels and luckily the VIP prestige already quite early meets VIP level 10 in this respect and has some additional missions once you reach VIP Prestige 10. At VIP Prestige 4 you already have the same number of alliance missions as VIP 10, at VIP Prestige 5 you have the same number of Daily Missions and 1 more Alliance Mission, at VIP Prestige 6 you have one more of both, at VIP Prestige 7 2 more Alliance missions and 1 more Daily mission, the same at VIP Prestige 8 and only at this level do you get the same number of VIP missions (but this is in my eyes less important as you cannot auto complete these missions), VIP Prestige 9 gives the same mission bonus as VIP Prestige 8, and at VIP Prestige 10 you get 2 extra Daily Missions, 2 extra Alliance Missions and 1 extra VIP Mission compared to VIP 10.
For the very important part of VIP levels, the number of Daily and Alliance missions, already at VIP Prestige 5 you are ahead of VIP 10, this makes a very convincing argument to not wait too long, unless you are about to go into a kill event and cannot do without the added Combat Boost. Do not wait too long, because as long as you are staying in VIP 10 you do not accumulate the free Next Login VIP Points. The added benefit of Open 50 Crates of VIP Prestige 10 might prove very useful once you start getting a lot of crates from buying packs and completing Extreme Challenges and there are bound to be more great benefits from yet to be introduced VIP Prestige Levels.
In the tools menu there is a VIP Comparison Calculator allowing you to compare the boosts between any two VIP levels. In the Data menu we also have a complete overview of all VIP levels.
That is it on VIP levels, if you have other tips or questions, please share!
