Build a Base and Steal Gear System (July 19, 2026)

The official wording

After the mid-July patch, the official Roblox page (title timestamped July 19, 2026) documented the raid loop directly: gear is used to destroy and enter other players' bases, after which pets can be stolen. That single line defines the game's competitive half and remains in the description as of the October 3, 2026 check.

The wording matters because older guides described bat-only raiding. The current description makes 'gear' the category - and the community documentation shows that category is wide: 26 tools across the 16 rebirth tiers.

The documented gear table

The rebirth reward table (Sportskeeda, July 25, 2026) maps gear to tiers: Steel Bat + Speed Coil (tier 1), Gravity Coil (2), Stone Bat (3), Cobalt Bat (4), Dual Coil (5), Grapple Hook (6), Obsidian Bat (7), Bear Trap (8), Crystal Bat + Juggernaut (9), Golden Bat (10), Shrink Potion (11), Goku Bat + Invisibility Cloak (12), Sky Bat + Body Swap Potion (13), Galaxy Bat + Rage Bat (14), Hacker Bat + Ban Hammer + Flashbang (15), and Demon Bat + TNT + Magnet + Sniper Rifle (16).

Roles split five ways: bat damage lines for wall-breaking, coils and the Grapple Hook for movement, potions and the cloak for tricks and stealth, Bear Trap and Juggernaut for defense, and the tier-16 kit (TNT, Magnet, Sniper Rifle) as the heavy raid option.

What it changed for players

Attackers got a progression path: gear arrives free with each rebirth, so raid capability compounds with the same ladder that raises Luck and pet slots. A tier-6 account's Grapple Hook changes which bases are even reachable.

Defenders got counter-tools in the same table - Bear Trap and Juggernaut - meaning base defense stopped being wall-only. The July 23 catalog coverage (Spikes, Laser Door, named Blocks) extended the defensive shopping list days later.

The meta consequence: gear parity. Because both sides draw from one ladder, preparation (routes, traps, pet placement) decides raids more than tool tier.

Recheck pointers

Gear lines are the likeliest balance target after updates. If a patch touches raiding, recheck the rebirth table against the in-game gear menu, then this site's gear ladder and steal-pets guide for the practical playbook.
