Build a Base and Steal Defense
Build a Base and Steal defense guide covering walls, traps, locks, and the best base protection setups to stop raiders from stealing your resources.
What is Defense?
Defense in Build a Base and Steal is everything that stops other players from reaching and stealing your resources, from walls and traps to locks, guard pets, and turrets.
Why invest in defense?
Keep Your Resources
Layered defenses protect the coins, items, and pets you worked hard to collect.
Discourage Raiders
Bases that are hard to crack get skipped, so attackers move on to easier targets.
Layer Your Protection
Combining walls, traps, decoys, and guard pets is far stronger than relying on any single defense.
