Treasure Island Rush Hour Event: Raids and Half Protection Time Unleashed
Treasure Island map used during the Rush Hour Event with active raid and defense zones.
Welcome to the Treasure Island Rush Hour Event, where protection is Reduced to half, scouting is disabled, and both Defenders and Attackers gain new opportunities to make big plays. If you’ve been waiting for a battle-heavy, resource-stealing week, this is your moment.
What Is the Treasure Island Rush Hour Event?
The Treasure Island Rush Hour Event amplifies every tension point inside Treasure Island: earlier vulnerability, half protection time, free X-Bow Level 1, 75% discounted X-Bow upgrades, and NO scouted attacks. This event is designed to offer real value to both sides: Defenders get stronger defenses, while attackers get more chances to attack.
To make the shift into the event features smoother, here’s how everything comes together.
Let’s break down exactly what’s changing — and how you can exploit it.
1. Protection Time Is Reduced to Half
Normally, collectors enjoy up to 12 hours of safety after capturing a Treasure Island.
During Treasure Island Rush Hour Event, collectors become vulnerable much earlier, with the protection window reduced to half its normal duration, dropping from 12 hours to 6.
What that means for players:
- Collectors become vulnerable faster
- Attackers get more opportunities to strike
- PvP activity increases across all time zones
- Raids happen earlier and more often
2. Free X-Bow Level 1 for Every Defender
Every Defender instantly gets X-Bow Level 1 for free during the Treasure Island Rush Hour Event.
This ensures that even low-level players or casual Defenders aren’t walking around unarmed.
Why this matters for collectors:
- Early defense gives Defenders a real power spike
- New players suddenly gain the strength to stand their ground
- Every collector starts with a solid defensive advantage
3. 75% Discount on X-Bow Upgrades
This discount gives Defenders a fast power boost, forcing attackers to adjust their approach before committing to an NO scouted fight.
Want to go from “basic defense” to “don’t even think about attacking me”?
Good news: all higher-level X-Bow upgrades are 75% off during the Treasure Island Rush Hour Event.
Perfect for:
- Players who want maximum security
- Players who upgrade strategically
- Players who usually skip defense upgrades but can now afford them
This creates a beautiful balance: Defenders get stronger… attackers must fight without scouting… and PvP becomes more unpredictable.
4. Scouting Is Disabled — Attacks Happen Without Scouting
Attackers can no longer scout collectors.
No troop info. No X-Bow level check. No idea what’s waiting behind that campfire.
What this means for attackers:
- Higher risk for attackers
- More surprise victories
- More revenge chains
5. Expected Event Outcome: Peak PvP Activity
Put everything together:
- Half protection time
- Blind raids
- Free X-Bow Level 1 defense
- 75% discounted X-Bow upgrades
And the result?
A massive PvP spike.
Expect both sides to benefit:
- More battles
- More failed attacks
- More stolen resources
- More collectors upgrading defenses
Treasure Island is now officially a war zone.
X-Bow: What It Is and Why It Matters
The X-Bow is one of the strongest defensive structures you can build — it doesn’t require CLEG, and Level 1 is completely free during the Treasure Island Rush Hour Event. You can craft it using Stone and Iron, making it accessible to all players.
The X-Bow starts strong right from Level 1, giving your defense real stopping power:
| Stats | Level 1 | Level 2 | Level 3 | Level 4 | Level 5 | Level 6 | Level 7 | Level 8 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Damage | 500 | 1000 | 2000 | 4000 | 8000 | 16000 | 32000 | 64000 |
| Health | 3000 | 6000 | 12000 | 24000 | 48000 | 96000 | 192000 | 384000 |
You can build two X-Bows in every defense setup, giving collectors a powerful way to hold their ground — especially during shorter protection windows.
When Can You Build or Activate It?
You can only build or activate X-Bows during defense time. Enter your Adventure History → Defense, then place and activate your X-Bows on the defense map.

Instant Heal After War
Treasure Island battles are intense, and troop losses are usually much higher than normal. After the Treasure Island Rush Hour Event ends, many players find a large part of their army locked in recovery, slowing down their return to normal gameplay.
With Instant Heal, fallen troops can be restored as soon as they return to the Barracks. Instead of waiting through long recovery timers after Treasure Island, players can rebuild their army immediately and continue attacking, farming, or preparing for the next battles without delay.
This makes Instant Heal especially useful after Treasure Island Rush Hour Event, when recovery time is at its longest and staying active matters the most. To learn more, check the full Instant Heal feature breakdown on our blog: Instant Heal Blog
